El próximo lunes, 23 de febrero a las 19h, recibimos a [@isla_viterbo](https://www.instagram.com/isla_viterbo/) que presenta su libro 'Nuclear', editado por el sello Yegua de Troya de la editorial [@randomhouse_es](https://www.instagram.com/randomhouse_es/) bajo la curaduría de [@gabrielawiener](https://www.instagram.com/gabrielawiener/). Le acompaña [@castellarnauariadna](https://www.instagram.com/castellarnauariadna/). 🐎 MAIELIS GONZÁLEZ (La Habana, 1989) Es escritora, investigadora literaria y mediadora cultural. Licenciada en Letras por la Universidad de La Habana, ha trabajado como profesora de literatura en esta institución y ha impartido clases en programas de posgrado en Europa y EE. UU. Actualmente, enseña escritura creativa en la Escuela de Escritores, es librera en la Librería Mujeres en Madrid y colabora con la gestión del proyecto Sudakasa. Su obra literaria se centra en la narrativa fantástica y la ciencia ficción. Entre sus títulos más recientes se encuentran los libros de relatos 'Jauría' (MIG21, 2023), 'Crónicas de un desvanecimiento' (Yerba Mala, 2024), publicados en Uruguay y Bolivia respectivamente, y la novela afrofuturista 'Palenque' (Cuatro Lunas, 2025). Acerca del libro: Claudia sabe que el futuro prometido por la Revolución cubana no llegó ni llegará, y en el exilio, escribiendo desde el sur remoto de una isla en el Delta del Tigre argentino, encontrará otros sueños de resistencia y rebelión, junto a la promesa de horizontes posibles que conseguirán dejar atrás el basurero tóxico del realismo capitalista. Benicio, en cambio, se ha quedado prácticamente solo en Cuba, pero no le interesa migrar o no se atreve. Prefiere perseguir el sueño o la locura de su arte para descubrir entre las ruinas de la central nuclear abandonada de Juraguá el fantasma del futuro soviético desvanecido. Una novela deslumbrante entre la Zona y el Río, entre el paraíso futurista abortado y el consuelo del paisaje acuático, entre el laberinto y la red. Una ficción especulativa afrocaribeña mezclada con la historia reciente de Latinoamérica que logra crear nuevas cartografías de lo 'weird'. ☢️ ¡Les esperamos! 😊

Hi and welcome to our next Socrates Café philosophy meetup! Do you have a hunger for deeper understanding of yourself and the world? Do you value deep, honest and respectful dialogue? If yes, then this meetup will be very interesting for you. • WHAT IS A MEETUP ABOUT? We ask, answer and discuss questions and ideas to stimulate critical thinking and to widen our perspectives with new concepts and thoughts. The main purpose of these meetups is to enrich ourselves with the perspectives of others, not to convince others about our own perspectives. Our meetups are about our own philosophies of life and not necessarily what the great philosophers and academics have said or written. It is not a debating club or a platform for proselytizing. Instead, we place the emphasis on questioning, open mindedness and challenging our own assumptions while listening to and respecting the views shared by others. A Socrates Café meetup is considered a success when participants leave a discussion with many more questions than they had at the beginning. • WHAT TOPIC IS DISCUSSED AT THE MEETUP? Participants suggest topics at the beginning of each meeting. We then vote and choose that event's most popular topic for discussion. No academic training in philosophy necessary; just enthusiasm for exchanging ideas and points of view. Some examples of subjects chosen on previous meetups: * What ideals are worth dying for? * Why are we never satisfied? * Why is it that human beings know that the society is going wrong, leaders are well informed about it and things continue as is? * Is identity necessary? * How can it be that people in democratic societies are so obsessed with power? (Desire to be different, better, stronger than others) * What is friendship? • WHO PARTICIPATES AT THIS MEETUP? Anybody is more than welcome to join our meetups. Our events gather people from different backgrounds, different cultures, while no philosophical background is mandatory. Our usual participants are people that have a hunger for deeper understanding of themselves and the world. People that value deep, honest and respectful dialogue. The inspiration for Socrates Cafe originates with the book of the same name, written by the philosopher Christopher Phillips. (Socrates Cafe: A Fresh Taste of Philosophy, 2002). Phillips felt that the Socratic method of dialogue and discussion should be practiced not just in academic settings, but among everyday people interested in examining deep questions together. Hundreds of Socrates Cafe groups now exist around the world.

The climate emergency will not be solved by reading books. But by coming together to read, to educate ourselves, to share what we learn with friends and family, and to take action in our corner of the world we can be a small part of the wave of change humanity desperately needs. Sound like something you want to be a part of? We’d love to have you. Join the Climate Action Book Club this month to read the activist handbook ‘Emergent Strategy’ by Adrienne Marie Brown. She calls it 'a guidebook for getting in right relationship with change, using our own nature and that of creatures beyond human as our teachers.' This event is free, but please get your copy from the wonderful English bookstore that hosts our book club meetings, Backstory. To cover Meetup fees, we also request a €1 donation per attendee. You are welcome (even encouraged) to join us even if you haven't read the book but want to hear and join the discussion about it. Feel free to bring a friend, too. Hope to see you!

At InnoIT Consulting, we are delighted to invite you to our upcoming meetup, organized in collaboration with Sony AI, on **Wednesday, February 25th.** 🎙️*Transforming scientific literature into discovery at Sony AI* The speaker will be **[Miquel Ferrer](https://www.linkedin.com/in/miquel-ferrer-5a97651/)** (ML/AI Engineer at Sony AI). **SUMMARY** In this talk we will gain insight into how **AI can act as a bridge across domains**, transforming the overwhelming scale of modern research into a **proactive engine for discovery**. In an era where **thousands of papers are published daily**, even the most specialized experts struggle to stay afloat. However, the sheer volume of global research represents more than a management challenge—it is a **massive, untapped resource for discovery**. In this session, we will explore how **AI can transform the vast body of scientific literature** into an **interconnected system of concepts and entities**. Moving beyond simple search and efficiency, we discuss how modeling the **evolution of knowledge** enables us to uncover **“scientifically plausible links”**—**hidden connections across domains**, such as **biology and medicine**, that are supported by data but **have not yet been articulated in print**. By leveraging AI to **bridge these silos**, we can move from **managing what is known** to **predicting the next frontier of scientific breakthroughs**. **This event is for you if you’re in:** AI/ML, Data & Analytics, NLP/LLMs, Knowledge Graphs/Ontologies, Search/IR, MLOps, or Data Engineering and want to turn research into actionable discovery. With time for a dynamic **Q&A session and, of course, our networking with food 🍕 and drinks 🍻.** **👥 Do you want to come along?** Share this invitation with all your contacts, or click the "share" button below. **WHEN:** Wednesday, February 25th at 6:30 PM **WHERE:** Oficinas InnoIT Consulting, [C/ Diputació, 280, Bajos 2ª, 08009, Barcelona](https://maps.app.goo.gl/zC6Sf2jUogxauX317) **LANGUAGE:** English 📝**Join our [newsletter](https://www.inno-it.es/newsletter/)!** Don't miss out on upcoming events, exciting news and special job offers. *InnoIT Consulting, Sony AI*

It’s time to take control of your mental health. How do you get rid of stress, anxiety and uncertainty? These emotions are buried deep in your reactive mind. Find out what the reactive mind is, and in the process find yourself. Have you ever suffered from a traumatic experience, a deep loss or been through a painful breakup? Has your ability to communicate suffered as a result? And after that, even though you "moved on" did you find that things were never quite the same? Have you ever looked at childhood photos, or reminisced your early life and wondered where that happiness and spark went? Are your emotions out of your own control? Have you ever felt, even if you aren’t aware of it, that possibly you are getting in your own way of your happiness and success? How does this affect your self-confidence? Find out what is at the root of all stress, anxiety, depression and self-doubt. Find out how and why you hold yourself back from achieving your goals and having the life you have dreamed of. As soon as you learn what is at the root of these unwanted conditions, you’ll see it is something you can DO something about. You will not be labeled or categorized at this MeetUp.

Join other experienced and aspiring agile coaches and professionals to: * develop and practice your coaching skills in a peer-to-peer environment * share current successes and challenges in your work environment and get support from each other * learn from each other, build better relationships and experiment with new ideas

Feeling down? Sometimes depressed? Can't focus? Negativity & stress? Recent losses? Creativity in career and personal life hindered by mental blocks? Sometimes we never fully recover from traumatic experiences. Whether it was yesterday, last week or a year ago, traumatic experiences - a loss of a loved one, losing a job, a breakup - can leave you scarred. You talk about it and feel a little better, but it never goes away. After you hang up the phone, it's still there; the sadness, the cloud, the over-thinking, the worry, the guilt. You try to focus, but you're blocked. You try to look forward into new experiences, new relationships but a cloud is hanging over you, casting a shadow on what you once considered a bright, cheerful future. What happened to your courage? Your strength of character? You're 'why not' attitude? Whoever said 'time heals' must have had a special time machine, because after weeks, months, years, you're wondering - when exactly does that kick in? Sometimes it seems like drinking or drugs are the way to go. But they wear off, and now the problem is still there with added side effects from the drugs. At this free local Meetup event we will talk about: * What causes grief, anxiety and depression to become chronic. * Is it possible to regain your joy and happiness even after traumatic experiences? * How to break away from negativity and focus on the future * What are the steps to take to get control of your mind and your emotions? Learn about a safe, gentle, do-it-yourself counseling that can be done in the comfort of your own home. Let's explore safe, effective solutions for healing from traumatic experiences.

It’s time to take control of your mental health. How do you get rid of stress, anxiety and uncertainty? These emotions are buried deep in your reactive mind. Find out what the reactive mind is, and in the process find yourself. Here is the secret of being positive and free: Thinking positively is not enough. You also have to get rid of the negative thinking. Your mind is like a garden. You can plant many beautiful flowers in it, but if you don't get rid of the weeds when you plant your flowers, the weeds will soon take over the whole garden. A positive thought is like a flower in your mental garden, and a negative thought is like a weed. You cannot expect to have a positive mindset if you continue to have negative thoughts dwelling and growing there. So, how do you get rid of the negative thoughts? That's what this Meetup is all about. Attend this local meeting and find out! The Meetup event will be led by a consultant who had helped many people live happier in life. Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to this local event. We look forward to seeing you there. This group is created by the Dianetics & Scientology life improvement center.

In this session, we’ll explore how GitHub Spec-Kit enables teams to treat specifications as first-class artifacts—living documents that drive architecture, implementation, and verification. You’ll learn how Spec-Kit helps teams clearly express intent using structured, version-controlled specs that live alongside code. We’ll walk through a practical workflow that starts with defining system behavior and constraints, then progressively refines those specs into testable, automatable outcomes. Along the way, we’ll show how specs can reduce ambiguity, improve cross-functional collaboration, and make design decisions explicit before a single line of production code is written. This talk will cover: --What spec-driven development is (and what it isn’t) --How GitHub Spec-Kit fits into modern developer workflows --Using specs to align product, engineering, and AI-assisted development --Real-world examples of turning specs into implementations with confidence Whether you’re building greenfield systems, integrating AI into your stack, or trying to reduce costly rework, spec-driven development offers a scalable way to move faster without sacrificing clarity. Attendees will leave with concrete patterns and a clear mental model for adopting GitHub Spec-Kit in their own projects. **YouTube Link** TBA
