We have some amazing speakers, and pizza and beer will be available after the event. ────────── **18:30: Welcome** Grab a beer, a snack, and a seat until everybody arrives! **18:45 Intro by Host Neciu Dan and Giorgio Polvara from Perk** **19:00 The 2600€ Mistake: How we saved 90% on Cloud Costs by breaking the SSR Myth** Speaker: [Danilo Velasquez](https://www.linkedin.com/in/ACoAAAXUQZYBfPgAdfwWiNG72HHc5rtHIS9pAWY), Staff Web Platform Engineer and Consultant When our Astro/React migration reached 8,000 RPS, 100 pods couldn't prevent the crash loops. Discover how mastering Node.js internals—Cluster API, file descriptors, and strict timeouts—slashed our bill from 2,850€ to 250€ while handling 1.6B monthly views. A war story about why "frontend-only" thinking fails on the server. **19:25 400 Tech Leads. Same problems. None of them technical.** Speaker: [Anemari Fiser](https://www.linkedin.com/in/ACoAAAsj0FIBwsd5kRTr2_wWLQKe-vFNZDCtNlE)\, O’Reilly Author \| Engineering Leader After training and coaching more than 400 tech leads across companies and industries, one pattern keeps repeating: when tech leads struggle, it’s rarely a technical gap. In this talk, Anemari Fiser shares the most common challenges tech leads bring into coaching sessions - overload, unclear expectations, ownership confusion - and assumed alignment, and why “getting better technically” almost never fixes them. Drawing from real coaching and training examples, the talk explores where tech leads get stuck, what they think the problem is, and the small but meaningful shifts that help them move forward. **19:50: Drinks and networking!** Do you want to talk at this meetup?

**📅 Fechas ( 2 sesiones – sábados):** **• Sábado 28 de febrero** **• Sábado 07 de marzo** **⏰ Horario: 11:00 a 14:00** **🎨 Materiales: incluidos** **💰 Valor total (2 sesiones): 60 €** **Te invitamos a un taller de alfarería y cerámica precolombina enfocado en la creatividad, el trabajo manual y el aprendizaje de técnicas tradicionales utilizadas por los pueblos originarios de Abya Yala.** **Nicol Romero es especialista en cerámica precolombina, y en su trabajo recupera y pone en práctica técnicas ancestrales de modelado manual. En este taller exploraremos métodos como rollitos, placas, pellizcos y moldeo, combinando conocimientos técnicos con la expresión personal y el contacto directo con la arcilla.** **Durante el proceso se realizarán piezas utilitarias y simbólicas, tales como tazones, cuencos y platos, incorporando motivos precolombinos y trabajando acabados en engobe, poniendo especial atención en la forma, la superficie y el lenguaje visual de las culturas ancestrales.** **Trabajaremos con arcilla de baja temperatura, conociendo los materiales y componentes fundamentales de la cerámica, así como técnicas de acabado tradicionales como el pulido y los engobes. El proceso invita a comprender la pieza desde su forma hasta su superficie, poniendo en valor el tiempo del hacer, la relación con la materia y el trabajo artesanal.** **Retomar estas técnicas precolombinas es también una herramienta práctica y accesible para quienes no cuentan con torno ni taller propio, y desean adquirir conocimientos para desarrollar la cerámica en casa o en cualquier espacio, desde una lógica manual, consciente y autónoma.** **No es necesario tener experiencia previa.** **Un espacio para aprender, experimentar y crear desde las manos, en diálogo con saberes antiguos.** **✨ A veces, simplificar también es una forma de enriquecer.** ........................................................................................................................................... **📅 Dates (2 sessions – Saturdays):** • Saturday, February 28 • Saturday, March 07 **⏰ Time:** 11:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m. **🎨 Materials:** included **💰 Total fee (2 sessions):** €60 We invite you to a **pre-Columbian pottery and ceramics workshop** focused on creativity, hands-on work, and learning traditional techniques used by the Indigenous peoples of **Abya Yala**. **Nicol Romero** is a specialist in pre-Columbian ceramics, and her practice revives and applies ancestral hand-building techniques. In this workshop, we will explore methods such as **coil building, slab construction, pinch techniques, and hand molding**, combining technical knowledge with personal expression and direct contact with clay. Throughout the process, participants will create **functional and symbolic pieces**—such as bowls, vessels, and plates—incorporating pre-Columbian motifs and working with **slip finishes**, with special attention to form, surface, and the visual language of ancestral cultures. We will work with **low-fire clay**, learning about the fundamental materials and components of ceramics, as well as traditional finishing techniques such as **burnishing and slips**. The process invites an understanding of each piece from its form to its surface, valuing the time of making, the relationship with the material, and artisanal work. Reclaiming these pre-Columbian techniques is also a **practical and accessible approach** for those who do not have access to a wheel or a dedicated studio, and who wish to develop ceramic practice at home or in any space, following a **manual, conscious, and autonomous** logic. **No previous experience is required.** A space to learn, experiment, and create with the hands, in dialogue with ancient knowledge. ✨ *Sometimes, simplifying is also a way of enriching.*

The Forge does have a full bar and kitchen. There is no cover charge but they do request all attendees to purchase a minimum of ~$20 per person. Soft drink refills are $1 each. Please support our hosts so we can continue to provide great events for the group! The Forge has a large library of games available for us to enjoy. Hosts and regulars will also provide numerous popular games but please bring any games you would like to teach and/or play. Doors open at 6, and we expect gaming to be rolling by around 630. Please promptly end your games and clear out the space at 10pm when the bar closes. We encourage socializing but do not permit disruptive behavior of any kind. Thank you for your continued commitment to providing a fun and welcoming space to veteran, newbie, and rookie gamers in the Columbus area. Parking can be challenging. There is a parking lot behind the neighboring Mexican restaurant that is free and easy to walk from but it's a bit hidden.

Join us and work remotely together with like-minded UX folks. This is a last minute opportunity to get out at one of our favorites, [Junto](https://thejuntohotel.com/)! Plenty of seating is available in addition to a connected coffee shop and restaurant. I will be there 10-12 for sure, maybe longer. Feel free to come and go anytime during the day, and don't forget your charger and headphones!

Welcome to Casual Boardgames, where we enjoy classic tabletop games and social deduction games while bonding over good food, drinks, and great conversations. 
We started this group to meet new people and make new friends, and bonding over games in a relaxed atmosphere is a great way to do that. We currently meet near route 23 and Polaris Parkway, and this is close to areas like Powell, Lewis Center, Worthington, and parts of Westerville and Columbus. 
Feel free to bring your own games or play one of the many games our members bring. If you are inexperienced, we will help you learn. 
Here are just a few examples of the kind of games we play. 
Tabletop/board games: Splendor, Catan, Azul, Dominion, 7 Wonders… 
Social deduction games: Code Names, Chameleon, Werewords… 
IMPORTANT: 
1. While we love playing a variety of games and competing, we are not just about the games. We interact and talk while playing, and this leads to a lot of laughter and fun. If you just want to compete and focus solely on the game, then this is probably not the group you are looking for. 
2. Many people join groups like this and never (or rarely) show up after weeks or months. If you join and never really come, we will eventually remove you from the group as a courtesy to our members. Why? Because limiting group conversations (on the app) to regular members makes communication and planning much easier. Also, while it may be rare, it protects members from people who join because they are interested in following a person instead of having a real interest in our group. If you get removed, it is just because you haven’t come, and we follow this protocol as a courtesy to our regular game players.

**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you. The building address is 4450 Bridge Park The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400 You will need to scan your ID at the door to get a visitor badge. **Abstract** *Spec-Driven Development with GitHub Spec-Kit: From Intent to Implementation* Spec-driven development flips the traditional workflow on its head: instead of code being the source of truth, the specification becomes the backbone of design, collaboration, and delivery. 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
