**๐ฃ๏ธ Tomasz Godzik: Metals Version 2!**
Metals is the Scala Language Server, providing IDE features within editors such as Visual Studio Code, Cursor, Zed, and Helix. This makes it essential for anyone looking to use new agentic tools. Many companies are now utilizing LLM trends to boost developer performance, but a major challenge has has been that Metals becomes less efficient as codebases scale - a common issue in large organizations.
Metals 2 is a new indexing and compilation approach, designed to make indexing as fast as possible and ensure the codebase remains functional even if parts of the project fail to compile. Applying this to both Scala and Java code, Metals 2 aims to become the premier JVM language server. Letโs explore how this can enhance your workflow.

**๐ฃ๏ธ Noel Welsh: Code as Communication: Lessons from Crashing Production**
Code is a form of communication: with the computer but also with other developers, be they human or otherwise. In this talk I'll discuss some aspects of communication in code. We'll look at what can go wrong, the problems it can cause (including embarrassing examples from my own experience!), and ways we can improve things.
โญ Noel Welsh โญ
Noel is a developer, teacher, and author. He's worked with companies big and small across Europe, the USA, and even once in Africa. He's the organizer of ScalaBridge London, a diversity focused group helping people get better at Scala. When he's not programming Scala he is probably writing about it. His next book, Functional Programming Strategies, is out soon!

Coding Agents and ACP with JetBrains (Luma Approval Required)
***P.S: [Luma](https://luma.com/4hs6hs36) Registration is Required for this event.***
**Theme:** ***Agentic Coding ๐ค [ACP](https://agentclientprotocol.com/)* (Agent Client Protocol)**
**๐ป Coding Agents and ACP with JetBrains**
๐ State of [ACP ](https://www.jetbrains.com/)from **[Jetbrains](https://www.jetbrains.com/) & [Zed Industries](https://zed.dev/)**

**Agent Client Protocol ([ACP](https://agentclientprotocol.com/)) and the Future of Interoperable Coding Agents**
Coding agents are part of everyday development workflows. Whether you are using an IDE or working in the CLI, coding agents are helping developers write, refactor, test, and debug code. But todayโs ecosystem is fragmented, we have so many coding agents Claude Code. Codex, Gemini CLI and many others. Every editor, every tool, and every agent often speaks its own language and has own harness. Not single coding harness will solve you all needs and you should be able to switch or have a choice to use different harnesss
What if you could use **any coding agent** inside **the editor you love**?
That is exactly what the **Agent Client Protocol ([ACP](https://agentclientprotocol.com/))** enables.
ACP is an open protocol that standardizes communication created by Zed Industries, between code editors and coding agents. It works for both local and remote scenarios. Think of it as the LSP for coding agents. Just as the Language Server Protocol unified language tooling across editors, ACP aims to unify how editors interact with intelligent coding agents.

Product is... prompt AND context engineering
Product Isโฆ is BACK! After a break since April last year, we're excited to return in 2026 with lots of really interesting new themes and discussions to be had.
Let's start with one.
Here's the thing: you've been learning to write better prompts. But what if the prompt is the easy bit? What if context is where all the real work lives - and what if product people are the only ones who know how to do it properly?
Will Chan, Senior Product Manager at Risk Ledger and organiser of the AI Signals meetup, will lead us through why context engineering might be the most important skill you're not thinking about.
This event will be at Synechron's office on the seventh floor, 95 Gresham Street, London, EC2V 7NA. A massive thank you to Synechron for providing the venue.
Doors open at 6:30 PM, we kick off at 7:00 PM, and wrap up by 8:30 PM. Drinks and snacks will be provided. Come ready for proper discussion, new connections, and ideas worth thinking about.
\-\-\- THE THEME \- PRODUCT IS\.\.\. PROMPT AND CONTEXT ENGINEERING \-\-\-
For product managers, designers, and researchers, context is everything. Context is the currency that sets product people apart from other disciplines like development or commercial teams. Product professionals need to understand the widest range of contexts - from users to business to implementation.
As AI tools become embedded in our work, something interesting is emerging. To create effective prompts, context has to be injected accurately. But here's where things get fascinating - you may need to create prompts to create context to create prompts. It's turtles all the way down.
The more time you spend using AI in products, the more you find yourself going back in your process. You're creating prompts for the final prompt, for the output you need to be as effective as possible. You might spend longer creating the prompt than doing the work itself.
Join us as we explore what context engineering means for product people. How do you manage context in a rapidly changing world? What does this look like in a qualitative world where product people live in the grey area? Is context engineering the right term, or is it something else entirely? These are the questions we'll be tackling together.
\-\-\- THE SPEAKER \- WILL CHAN \-\-\-
Will is a Senior Product Manager at Risk Ledger and organiser of the AI Signals meetup. With over 10 years of experience building and scaling SaaS products in regulated, data-heavy environments, Will specialises in taking complex problems and turning them into products that drive measurable outcomes.
Across legaltech, telecoms, workforce management, and retail media, Will has led discovery through delivery for AI and automation initiatives, improving adoption, containment, conversion, and operational efficiency at scale. Most recently, he's owned AI strategy and delivery for customer-facing platforms, doubling feature adoption and embedding AI safely into real workflows rather than demos or prototypes.
Alongside delivery, Will enjoys developing product talent. He's coached PMs, shaped product playbooks, and led teams through clearer discovery, prioritisation, and execution practices. Will is passionate about practical AI application and real customer impact over hype.
\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- ABOUT 'PRODUCT IS\.\.\.' \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-
PMs, UX & UI designers, user researchers, developers - you like to dream big when it comes to digital productsโฆ Now it's time share your perspective!
'Product isโฆ' grounds itself in informed, knowledgeable context and healthy conversation - vital ingredients to tech success. One keynote speaker sets the tone on a theme of less travelled subject matter before all attendees add their perspective during the second half of round table-style discussion.
Don't expect standard tech meetup fare like "How to improve your CV/Portfolio for that dream job at Facebook" or "How this new framework/approach will improve your workflow" - this meetup is food for the mind, but also a place to meet like-minded big-thinkers!
We welcome everyone who works in tech - EVERYONE has a valuable perspective that we learn from.
\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- WHY WE CHARGE FOR TICKETS \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-
We do not aim to make a profit from this meetup, our goal is to create healthy and interesting conversations, meet new people and make new connections. Speakers and the organising team give up their time free of charge to ensure the events are enjoyable for all.
A small charge is required for attendance - this allows the organisation team to cover overheads, including the Meetup.com subscription, plus food and drink for the evening.
Grafana & Friends London - March edition
Join us for Grafana talks mixed with snacks and community conversations!
Schedule
18:00-18:30
Welcome, snacks, drinks and networking
18:30-19:00
**From Service to Line Number: Getting Started with Continuous Profiling** by Christian Simon, Principal Engineer at Grafana
Logs, metrics, and traces tell you which service is slow or expensive. Profiles tell you which code path - down to the line number. With profiling now part of OpenTelemetry, and the eBPF profiler requiring zero instrumentation, there's never been a better time to add this missing piece to your observability stack.
1\. Value of Continuous Profiling
2\. How do you set up continuous profiling \(Pyroscope \+ OTel eBPF profiler\)
3\. Deriving insights from Profiles using Grafana Assistant
4\. Demo
19:00-19:40 **My Cool Grafana Dashboard Show and Tell - Lightning Talks**
**Lightning talks:**
**1\. What if Your Career Had Metrics?**
**Roxana Turc, Software Engineer at BNY**, will show how she used Grafana to build a **career dashboardโtracking learning, work, and growth**, and why seeing her progress this way changed how she thinks about development.
**2\. Using Grafana for Visualising IoT Air Quality Sensor Data** by John Sinha, Lead Technical Business Analyst
IoT air quality sensors produce noisy, high-resolution time series data, but how you visualise it determines what you actually see. This lightning talk walks through a Grafana dashboard designed to **present environmental data clearly, covering time and value scaling choices, linear vs. log views, and practical denoising techniques.** See how small visualisation decisions can dramatically change the story your sensor data tells.
3. **How I discovered pigeons sabotaging my project with Kafka and Grafana** \- by Hugh Evans\, Developer Advocate at Aiven
Learn how how a lightweight Kafka + Grafana observability stack helped Hugh **catch his avian adversaries** and iterate on a hobby project **without enterprise-scale complexity or costs**.

CBusData - Discover the Power of Window Functions
Window functions have nothing to do with the Windows operating system but provide a โwindowโ 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.

Dojos are informal Python group study sessions where everyone interested in Python gathers to learn about Python, help others with Python, or just hang out. Everyone is welcome from Python beginners to experts. Bringing a laptop is encouraged (we'll have extension cords and power strips). If there's something you want to learn leave a comment on this invite so we can plan ahead.
We're looking for topic suggestions and people interested in presenting at our monthly meetings. To this end we've set up a survey form at [https://docs.google.com/forms/d/15eBKF1nQQ2XS5gzD4rvhVRHMBEj7lJtHuA9wXupS3Uc](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/15eBKF1nQQ2XS5gzD4rvhVRHMBEj7lJtHuA9wXupS3Uc)
Powell Gold Star Referral Club Meetup
We meet at lunch each week and each meeting follows a fairly organized agenda. First all participants pass their business cards around. Then each member and guest is invited to give a one-minute overview of their company and what is a perfect referral for the week. We always have a 10 minute presentation from one of the members about their business in more detail. And finally we pass referrals. You're welcome to visit. Nobody is ever put on the spot. Bring plenty of cards!
