On se rencontre chaque mercredi pour parler français. Parmi nous, il y a des gens qui ont le français comme langue maternelle, et des gens qui aiment le français et le maîtrisent plus ou moins. On aime discuter et parler de tout et de rien, et on est toujours content de recevoir des gens qui sont de passage ou des nouvelles personnes qui veulent écouter, parler, pratiquer la langue, ou poser des questions. \-\-\-\-\- Cette semaine, on se retrouve dans un endroit pour tester , même si le Café Merkur parait assez bien pour le moment :) Ca sera la freunderlwirtschaft dans le Servitenviertel, et ca sera Etienne qui s'occupe de la soiree pendant que je suis pas là. *** La table est toujours gerée d'une façon très libre et relaxée, on se rencontre et on parle aux autres participants et participantes autour de nous. NOTE: Si vous comptez venir, inscrivez-vous s'il vous plaît, pour qu'on puisse prévoir assez (mais pas trop non plus) d'espace au restaurant. Comme ça, on sera à l'aise et l'endroit qui nous accueille aussi. On commence à 18h30 , mais ce n'est pas un problème de rejoindre après. Normalement, il y a au moins une dizaine de personnes qui vient aux rencontres. Cette rencontre est aussi annoncée sur notre groupe facebook ("Vienna French Meetings") A mercredi alors!

We are happy to announce the next [eBPF](https://ebpf.io/)-focused meetup in Vienna scheduled for March 6, 2026. All talks will be suited for beginners and experts as well. Whether you're a web developer, platform engineer, data scientist or simply curious about the latest advancements in the world of IT, this event is for you. Come and join us to network with like-minded professionals, expand your knowledge in eBPF and explore how this open-source technology is revolutionizing the way we solve problems. Don't miss out on this opportunity to stay ahead of the curve! *Special thanks to our sponsors:* *\- ÖBB for providing an excellent venue for this meetup\!* **Agenda:** * 17:00 - 17:25: Arrival and Registration * 17:25 - 17:30: **Welcome** - *by the Organizers* * 17:30 - 18:00: **The pod knows where you're from** *\- preserving Source IP with Cilium and DSR* \- by Marcel Gredler * 18:00 - 18:30: Break * 18:30 - 19:00: **Signing eBPF for Security** *(with Hornet LSM)* \- by Julian Zhuang * 19:00 - 21:00: Closing Words & Networking Apero **Topic 1: The Pod Knows Where You're From – Preserving Source IP with Cilium and DSR** In this session, Marcel Gredler delves into maintaining original source IP addresses in Kubernetes pods using Cilium and Direct Server Return (DSR). By bypassing traditional load balancers for return traffic, DSR boosts bandwidth and performance, enabling efficient handling of high-throughput workloads like AI model inference and training in cloud-native setups. **Topic 2: Signing eBPF for Security (with Hornet LSM)** Julian Zhuang discusses enhancing eBPF program security via cryptographic signing integrated with the Hornet Linux Security Module (LSM). This approach verifies eBPF code integrity before kernel loading, reducing vulnerabilities in observability, networking, and security tools while ensuring safe deployment in production environments.

Join us for the first meetup in 2026! ⭐️ Are you interested in the Ruby language or Ruby on Rails? Join us. We have great talks, good vibes, and yummy snacks! 😋 **Talks** \~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~ 🗣️ [Peter Solnica](https://solnic.dev/) ▶️ Structured Logging in Ruby: Where We Are and Where We're Heading 🗒️ Ruby's logging ecosystem is evolving, and there's a lot of momentum to build on. In this talk, we'll explore the current state of logging in Ruby and compare it with ecosystems like Elixir, where a more capable, well-designed logger is built right into the standard library. We'll dive into recent developments in Rails - including its new structured events API - and how they connect to the broader picture of structured logging, error handling, and tracing. Along the way, we'll build a vision for what Ruby's standard library could offer: a powerful, extendable logger that makes structured logging a natural part of every Ruby project. 🗣️ [Marie-Therese Fischer ](https://fischer.codes/) ▶️ Building Games with Ruby 🗒️ What do you end up with when you strip Rails from a Rails developer? Plain Ruby. Join me as I explore the language behind the framework through the lens of game development. By building a simple terminal game and a 2D platformer, I’ll break down the essential building blocks every game is built on - from loops and input handling to visuals. We'll look at how stepping away from the 'magic' of Rails to build games can lead to a deeper understanding of Ruby logic and application structure. 🗣️ [Christoph Lipautz](https://github.com/unused) ▶️ The Art of Testing Nothing 🗒️ Traditional CI/CD pipelines often waste significant resources re-validating unchanged code, creating a bottleneck in the development lifecycle. This session explores the results of my attempts to shift from exhaustive execution to smart omission. I'll discuss how doing nothing turns into a technical strategic advantage while maintaining confidence. **Location** **\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~** Mariahilfer Str. 97/4, 1060 Wien **Sponsors** \~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~ ⭐ [Meister](https://www.meisterlabs.com/jobs/) Founded in 2006 by Till Vollmer and Michael Hollauf, Meister’s journey from start-up to scale-up has been a story of continual growth. What started with a vision to create a simple visual mind-mapping tool has become not one but two collaborative tools that help teams everywhere focus on the work that matters. Thank you to Meister for hosting and providing us with refreshments and snacks! 🙌 \~\~\~ ⭐ Looking to sponsor or give a talk? We are looking for sponsors and speakers.

Window functions have nothing to do with the Windows operating system but provide a “window” to a result set when used in SQL queries. They are powerful, set-based methods to view data in unexpected ways. Window functions provide easy, set-based solutions to solve some common problems: * Using running totals * Performing operations in intervals * Identifying data gaps and islands * Performing aggregates without losing detail Many people are confused by window functions and do not know how to use them properly. This session will explore window functions, how they work, and how to use them. Demonstrations with several examples will solidify how window functions can simplify queries and make them more powerful.

**Google Analytics Alternatives** Is it finally time to make the switch away from Google Analytics? Two-and-a-half years ago Jason Packer asked this question at Columbus Web Analytics Wednesday. Since then: Google’s Universal Analytics has been sunset, we’ve changed our name to Columbus Data & Analytics Wednesday, and Jason has released two editions of his book “Google Analytics Alternatives”. Fresh off the release of the 2nd edition of his book, we thought it was time to re-open this conversation. While people love to complain about it, GA’s market share has remained relatively constant (at least in the United States). Why is that? You won’t find any complaints about GA4 in this talk, but rather an overview of what’s currently available in the market and how to frame your decision-making process. We’ll also be giving out some free copies of Jason’s book! So even if you’ve got a “GA4Lyfe” tattoo (no judgement), there’s free books to go with the free pizza and beer. Thanks to our 2026 sponsors: [Clarivoy](https://www.clarivoy.com), [What Box Consulting Group](https://www.whatboxconsultinggroup.com), [Conductrics](https://www.conductrics.com), and [Piwik PRO](https://piwik.pro) More info at [cbusdaw.com](https://cbusdaw.com)

Happy Holidays! The first Wednesday of January is 7th, and this is Orthodox Christmas. And i will be wishing everyone Merry Christmas in January, and i am sure many of you will be tired from all this socializing. That is why we are going to meet on February 4th. And we will continue discussing the Hot topic of our age an AI. We’ve spent the last few sessions learning how to *talk* to AI. We’ve mastered prompt engineering and "vibecoding" to build things faster. Now, it’s time for the next leap: **letting AI work for us while we sleep.** In this session, we are moving beyond simple chatbots to explore **Autonomous AI Agents.** Unlike standard tools that wait for you to type a command, Agents are designed to perceive a goal, plan a series of tasks, and execute them independently within your WordPress site. We will discuss **Generative vs. Agentic AI:** Understanding the shift from *"Write me a blog post"* to *"Monitor local Knoxville news and draft a weekly summary every Friday."* I am sure many of you have seen WordPress ads offering different Agentic tools like **Uncanny Automator**, **AI Engine**, or **n8n**. What do these tools do? How successful they are? And how implementable all these agents are for your current WordPress site? I will gather some info and make research. But please join us and bring your stories and experience on topic. See you!

Join membersrs of the Central Ohio UX and digital design community for a casual monthly breakfast.

Columbus Code & Coffee is an inclusive, informal co-working session. People of all skill levels attend, and we love it that way. Many people (optionally) bring projects to work on, and many other people (optionally) socialize the entire time. It's entirely up to you! **What to Expect at the Intro Circle** \~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~ Near the beginning of the event (1:30 pm), we do a standup: * Organizer announcements, updates, and logistics Round 1 - (7 secs max): * Your name * What you're working on * What you can help others with Round 2: * Community events you wanna plug. If none, that's cool too. Round 3: * Job opportunities you're hiring for OR announce that you are looking for one. If none, that's cool. After the introduction circle, everything is self-organized! Feel free to work alone, pair up, attend one of our workshops/presentations, or mingle!
