A list of Seed7 advantages. A hello-world Seed7 example program. The advantages of Seed7 are discussed in detail: This includes **compile-time execution**, **integer overflow checks**, the **absence of pointers and NULL**, the static type system, ahead of time compilation, types as first-class citizens, abstract data types, **templates**, **parser as part of the run-time library**, the Extended Backus-Naur Form, **Seed7 Structured Syntax Definition**, defining the semantic of a for-loop, how languages evolve and the **Seed7 test suite**. **Talk 2nd:** **Claude Code - How AI Agents Are Changing the Way We Code** Claude Code is Anthropic's agentic coding CLI that lives in your terminal. it autonomously reads your codebase, edits files, runs tests, and ships PRs — all through natural conversation. I'll give a live demo covering its latest features: * **Sub-agents**: parallel, specialized AI workers with independent context windows * **MCP** (Model Context Protocol): connecting Claude to external tools like Firecrawl for live web search/scraping, databases, Slack, and more — right from the terminal * **Hooks & Skills**: custom automation triggers and reusable slash commands that personalize your workflow * **Plan mode**: aligning on implementation strategy before the AI writes a single line of code * **Auto-memory (CLAUDE.md)**: how the agent learns your project conventions and remembers them across sessions * **Voice mode**: talking to your codebase Whether you use VS Code, JetBrains, or just a terminal — this is the future of developer tooling.

**The Data-Driven Brand: Using Analytics to Shape Perception** Can you use analytics to improve tacos? This being CBUSDAW, we think the answer is probably “yes”, but we’re not sure how to implement or test this theory. For our April meetup we’ve got Sara Kear, CMO of Condado Tacos, to investigate this delicious question. Sara will explore how she blends quantitative data and qualitative customer feedback to shape brand positioning and drive business decisions. We all know that marketing and analytics go way beyond attribution. Sara will show how Condado uses customer insights to inform product and pricing strategy. She’ll also highlight how Condado leverages customer feedback at scale to influence operational priorities, positioning marketing as the voice of the customer across the organization. In the last 12 years Condado has gone from one location in Columbus to 52 locations across 10 states, so we’re guessing there’s more to that growth than really good guac (though the guac probably helps). Ultimately, this talk focuses on the intersection of art and science—using data to inform creativity and build a brand that resonates with customers in a measurable way. **About Our Speaker** Sara Kear is Chief Marketing Officer at Condado Tacos, where she oversees brand, restaurant design, menu and pricing strategy, off-premise including catering, and customer data strategy. Since joining in 2021, she has helped grow the brand from 19 to 52 locations while building a data-driven marketing organization focused on loyalty and customer insights. Condado has since been named to the Inc. 5000, recognized as Breakout Retailer by Chain Store Age, and consistently ranked among FastCasual’s Top 100 Movers & Shakers.
