Learning Czech can be hard and demotivating, especially when studying alone. **This meetup is a shared study session where we come together to stay focused, motivated, and make progress — each in our own way.** This is a co-learning / co-studying session, not a class. There is no teacher, no lesson, and no study material provided. Everyone comes with their own resources and studies independently, in a shared environment. 🧠 **How it works** • We all bring our own material: • textbooks • homework from a Czech course • Duolingo or other apps • reading practice • vocabulary review, etc. • We mainly work individually • We are free to: • ask questions • help each other • share tips and resources • No teacher, no formal structure, no pressure 👥 **Who is it for?** • Czech learners of all levels • Non-Czech speakers (expats, internationals) • Czech native speakers are welcome if they want to help, but this is not a language exchange ⏱ **Practical info** • Location: Cafedu 12, Škrétova 490, 120 00 Praha 2 (Metro A and C, Muzeum station) • Duration: 2 hours, or less or more, as you want • Day & time: Monday, 18:00 • Group size: small group for now • Free event — please support the café by ordering a drink ☕ If you’re learning Czech and lack motivation when studying alone, come join us — let’s find it together 🙂

This is an informal event for English speaking teachers. We network, build relationships and exchange ideas. If you’re facing any challenges, than feel free to talk about it with the group. Jeffie has been able to successfully collect payment from a work benefit. If you like to hear about it, free to ask her at the next meetup. As an elementary school teacher I've noticed that Czech schools seem to have less tells for behavior modification than American schools (though generally well behaved students). I would love to hear from other teachers what their behavior modification methods are. I ask for 30 crowns to cover the cost of monthly meet-up groups. I look forward to seeing old friends and making new ones. See you soon Aaron

This time, the event will also include a **competition** and the **announcement of its results**. The description can be found below. For more information about the competition, please click **[HERE](https://deepscout-challenge.miton.cz/).** Web scraping is no longer just about simple scripts. Modern websites are complex, dynamic, and protected by many anti-scraping systems. At the same time, companies need large amounts of structured data from the web. In this event, we will focus on a real scraping use case and use it to explain how modern scraping works. You will learn what kinds of protections websites use today, what tools can be used depending on website difficulty, and what technical challenges appear in practice. We will also show how machine learning and AI help turn messy web data into structured, usable information. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- ⌚️ **Start**: 16:00 and end at 17:00, both online and offline in **Truhlárna Karlín** (Šaldova 388/5) - **Onsite attendance is limited to 100 people.** 🎙️ **Speakers:** Jan Mittner, Michal Marhan 🍻 **Networking** after the seminar – great food and cold beer waiting for you! **🎥 Recording:** After the event we will publish a recording and post a link to it in the comments. 🚪**Doors open** at 15:45, and the event officially starts at 16:00.

**Pomlázky se už pletou, vajíčka se malují… a až se z té velikonoční radosti vzpamatujeme, tak nás čeká první jarní pražský meetup! 🥚🌿🔥** Večer plný talků, nápadů, budoucnosti a podobně naladěných lidí. Jako vždy to rozjedeme Nowwwinkami a pak se ponoříme hlouběji do programu, který opět stojí za to. Přijďte si pro svoji dávku inspirace. Hostit nás budou Mews ve svých pražských kancelářích, kde se můžete těšit nejen na skvělé prostředí, ale i komunitu lidí, kteří žijí frontendem stejně jako vy. 🚀 **Hlavní line-up a na co se těšit dále** 🤩 * 🟢 18:00 otevíráme * 1️⃣ 18:40 **Nowwwinky** od Tomáše Kouta * 2️⃣ 19:00 **Frontend Observability v časech AI: přežitek nebo nutnost?** od Alexe Ratmana * 3️⃣ 19:30 **Proč vám váš CEO bere práci?** od Martina Michálka * 4️⃣ 20:00 **7 klíčových kompetencí vývojáře v době AI** od Marka Velase * 🎓 80+ nadšených účastníků * 🍻 a v neposlední řadě kvalitní catering a networking \-\-\- 1️⃣ Tomáš Kout se svými **Nowwwinkami** otevře večer svým přehledem toho nejzajímavějšího z poslední doby. Rychle, výstižně a se vším, co si zaslouží vaši pozornost. \-\-\- 2️⃣ Následuje přednáška na téma **Frontend Observability v časech AI: přežitek nebo nutnost?** od [Alexe Ratmana](https://www.linkedin.com/in/alexratman/) z Mews.com Ve světě, kde AI generuje čím dál víc frontendu, je lákavé myslet si, že observability se postará sama. Ale co když se něco pokazí a vy nevíte kde, proč ani kdo? Na příkladu Mews ukážu cestu od téměř nulové frontend observability až po nasazení Coralogixu a interní vzdělávání týmu. A jako bonus: reálný případ z prostředí velkého evropského telekomunikačního operátora, kde Claude analyzoval produkční problémy na základě dat, která jsme nasbírali - důkaz, že v AI éře jsou dobrá data důležitější než kdy dřív. *O Alexovi: Alex je Senior Frontend Developer ve společnosti Mews, která vyvíjí cloudový hotelový software používaný hotely po celém světě. Za téměř pět let v Mews se intenzivně věnoval frontend observability - od stavu, kdy tým létal naslepo, až po zavádění Coralogixu a budování kultury datově řízeného vývoje. Organizoval interní sérii „Frontend Observability Kindergarten", kde frontendový tým společně prozkoumával možnosti nových nástrojů. Věří, že dobrá observability není o dashboardech - ale o schopnosti pochopit, co se děje s uživatelem právě teď.* \-\-\- 3️⃣ Po přestávce navážeme příspěvkem **Proč vám váš CEO bere práci?** od [Martina Michálka](https://www.linkedin.com/in/martinmichalek/) Velmi dlouho jsem se na svět díval vývojářskou perspektivou. Teď jsem především CEO. Jeden z těch CEO, kteří se zbláznili do vibe-codingu a lezou svým lidem do kódu. To nechcete. Nebo chcete? Vývojářská perspektiva mi umožňuje to vidět i očima frontendistek a frontendistů. Ukážu vám ukázky aplikací, na kterých jsem se podílel, výhry, fuckupy, i vývojářský a produktový pohled. *O Martinovi: Martina snad není nutné představovat*… *😊 tak jen pro zopakování. Martin je známá osobnost české frontendové komunity a dlouhodobě se věnuje hlavně rychlosti webu a webové výkonnosti. Je autorem projektu [Vzhůru dolů](https://www.vzhurudolu.cz) a jeho práce propojuje technickou kvalitu webů s dopadem na UX a byznys. Veřejně vystupuje také v odborných článcích, školeních, konferencí a komunitních aktivitách kolem frontendu obecně. Spolupořádá konferenci [FrontKon](https://www.frontkon.tech/) a je otcem zakladatelem naší komunity [Frontendisti](https://www.frontendisti.cz).* \-\-\- 4️⃣ Večer uzavřeme tématem **7 klíčových kompetencí vývojáře v době AI** od [Marka Velase](https://www.linkedin.com/in/marek-velas/) (Talent mentor a founder edupunk.cz) Psychologický pohled na to, co se skutečně mění — a proč to není o nástrojích. AI dnes negeneruje jen kód. Generuje možnosti. A tím mění práci vývojáře víc, než se zdá. V téhle krátké přednášce se podíváme na 7 kompetencí, které začínají rozhodovat o tom, kdo bude v AI-first prostředí opravdu silný developer — a které se přitom netýkají technologií, ale způsobu přemýšlení. Nejde o nástroje. Jde o změnu role. *O Markovi: Marek působí jako Talent mentor a je hrdým founderem platformy [edupunk.cz](http://edupunk.cz/).* \-\-\- Přijďte si poslechnout, podiskutovat a nastartovat se po Velikonocích správnou Human-AI energií. ✨ Neváhejte s registrací a zabookujte si místo – bude to stát za to! 🎉 👉 Pro další zajímavé novinky a dění sledujte kanály komunity na [Youtube](https://www.youtube.com/@FrontendistiCz), [X](https://x.com/Frontendisti), [Facebooku](https://www.facebook.com/frontendisti/), [Instagramu](https://www.instagram.com/frontendisti/), [LinkedInu](https://www.linkedin.com/company/frontendisti/posts/?feedView=all) nebo navštivte [náš web](https://www.frontendisti.cz).

Dodgeball is back again! If you’ve been wanting to come out, this is an easy one to join. We’ll be playing for about 1.5 to 2 hours, you do not need to bring any equipment, and no experience is needed.

Mark Vonder Haar

We will meet next to the restrooms at the [Big Meadows Picnic Area](https://www.metroparks.net/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/HBK_Web_1980.png). They're all the way at the back of the park, and they can be found at coordinates [40°09'06.6"N 83°02'30.2"W](https://www.google.com/maps/place/40%C2%B009'06.6%22N+83%C2%B002'30.2%22W/@40.151828,-83.0423587,214m/data=!3m2!1e3!4b1!4m10!1m5!3m4!2zNDDCsDA5JzA4LjAiTiA4M8KwMDEnNDUuMSJX!8m2!3d40.1522222!4d-83.0291944!3m3!8m2!3d40.151827!4d-83.041715?entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI0MTIwNC4wIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3D) (near the playground and the zip line). We'll hike about 5 miles at [Highbanks Metro Park](https://www.metroparks.net/parks-and-trails/highbanks/) on the Dripping Rock and Overlook Trails. Afterward, we'll head over to [Olentangy River Brewing](https://www.olentangybrew.com/) for drinks, coffee, or food (their Sunday [food truck](https://www.olentangybrew.com/eventsandfood) is Venezuelan and always gets good reviews). The actual address of the brewery is [303 Green Meadows Dr S, 43035](https://www.google.com/maps/place/303+Green+Meadows+Dr+S,+Lewis+Center,+OH+43035/@40.1551938,-83.0144045,17.25z/data=!4m6!3m5!1s0x8838f395cef06c97:0xe407de61b3e30069!8m2!3d40.1551765!4d-83.0124352!16s%2Fg%2F11c26jc7j9?entry=ttu). If you can't make the hike, we should be there by noon. **How to find our starting point in Big Meadows:** If you are new to Highbanks, the Big Meadows picnic area is 1.5 miles into the park just after you turn into the park off of U.S. Route 23. That is, after you enter the park, drive a mile and a half into the park. You will come to a crosswalk with a yield sign in the middle of it (this is not to be confused with the first such crosswalk you come to just in front of the Nature Center, which you arrive at maybe a quarter of a mile into the park). Just after this second crosswalk, make a left. Then make another almost immediate left into the parking lot on your left. There you will see the jungle gym and the kiddie zip line to your left. I will be just in front of the restrooms just a bit further down from the jungle gym and picnic shelter; the restroom building will also be on your left.
