¡Que vienen los Sesgos!
¡Buenas a todos!
Anunciamos hoy un nuevo Meetup Presencial 🥳
Será el 18 de febrero, así que pronto ¡nos vemos!
Esta charla será súper interesante si querés conseguir clientes, y entender sobre sesgos cognitivos.
¿Sabías que tomamos más de 35.000 decisiones al día, pero la mayoría son automáticas?
En esta ponencia, desvelo cómo funciona el Sistema 1 de Kahneman y cómo utilizar los atajos mentales (heurística) para dejar de perseguir clientes y empezar a atraerlos.
No es magia, es ciencia aplicada.
Descubrirás cómo integrar sesgos cognitivos específicos —como el de Confirmación, Anclaje y el Efecto IKEA— directamente en las fases de tu embudo de ventas (TOFU, MOFU, BOFU).
Además, te llevarás una estrategia paso a paso de 7 emails diseñada para activar estos disparadores psicológicos y multiplicar tu conversión.
**Te contamos los detalles del evento:**
📅 FECHA: 18 de febrero 2026

🌎 Culture Shock Therapy | Make Friends: Not Small Talk - Deep talks & Coffee
🇪🇸Español Abajo 👇
**☕️ Coffee Talk: Where Conversations Are Stronger Than the Coffee ☕️**
Had enough of awkward small talk and silent social gatherings? This is your chance to break free. Join us for a night of meaningful conversations about life, dreams, existential crises, and why we keep procrastinating our goals.
**🔹 What to expect?**
✔️ Thought-provoking questions (but not too deep, we promise).
✔️ Interesting people with zero interest in discussing traffic.
✔️ Interactive dynamics that push you out of your comfort zone—without feeling like a job interview.
If you're ready for an evening of deep conversations, great coffee, and a dash of sarcastic humor, save your spot before you regret it (again).
📍 **Where?** Diletto – Perón 4217 (because coffee without great conversations is just wasted caffeine).
💰 **How much?** $5,000 ARS / $5 USD (yes, genuine connections have a price, but they’re worth every cent).

**☕️Coffee Talk: Donde las Conversaciones Son Más Fuertes que el Café☕️**
Si ya tuviste suficiente de las mismas charlas de ascensor y los silencios incómodos en reuniones sociales, este es tu evento. Aquí venimos a hablar de todo lo que realmente importa: la vida, los sueños, las crisis existenciales y por qué seguimos procrastinando nuestras metas.
**🔹 ¿Qué puedes esperar?**
✔️ Preguntas que te harán pensar (pero no demasiado, prometemos).
✔️ Gente interesante con cero ganas de hablar del tráfico.
✔️ Dinámicas interactivas que te sacarán de tu zona de confort sin hacerte sentir en una entrevista de trabajo.
Si estás listo para una tarde de conversaciones profundas con café en mano y un toque de humor sarcástico, reserva tu lugar antes de que te arrepientas (otra vez).
📍 **¿Dónde?** Diletto – Perón 4217 (porque el café sin buenas conversaciones es solo cafeína desperdiciada).
💰 **¿Cuánto?** $5.000 ARS / $5 USD (sí, las conexiones genuinas tienen su precio, pero valen cada centavo).

**📦 WHAT'S THIS ABOUT?**
FTST is a one-of-a-kind social experience where strangers come together for meaningful, fun and deep conversation. It’s also a different & cool way of meeting new people by getting a bit out of your comfort zone and skipping the small talk!
Join us for games, talks, and connections with friends you haven’t met yet. Join if you get annoyed after being asked what you do, where you are from, and how long you've been in BA every single time you meet someone. If you feel that there are better questions in life then this is the place for you. 🙌
**📓 HOW DOES IT WORK?**
We start with a short & sweet intro talk followed by a few fun games to warm up. After that, we split you up into small groups (of 3-4) and start with the conversation rounds. We'll have awesome question **cards** that will guide the flow of the conversation. You'll **be guided by experienced hosts** (Elle & Michelle) who'll make sure everything goes smoothly. 🍭
**🕹 HOW TO JOIN?**
**[Take 1 minute to sign up 👈](https://luma.com/ftst2buenosaires)**

We host our events in awesome bars & parks across the city. *We only **reveal the location** upon confirmation (or 25 before if it's in a park).* This event will take place in a nice **park** in Palermo.
📣 **IMPORTANT**: An RSVP on Meetup does **NOT** **confirm** your spot. 🎟️
**💛 WHAT THEY SAY**
🗣 “This is the kind of activity **humanity needs every weekend**. Thank you for all.” - *Sonya*
🗣 "I cannot recommend this event enough to connect with an international crowd. It was fun and light-hearted, but offered depth and humanity. As a digital nomad of 3 years, it's one of the best events and meet up activities I've been to yet!" - *Tom*
🗣 “Great way to connect with people in a more meaningful way. Get to the heart of the matter, dive straight into what really counts!” - *Matthias*
🗣 “F\*ck the Small Talk changes the narrative from "Where are you from?" to "When was the last time you laughed uncontrollably?" and I think that's beautiful.” - *Monika*
🗣 “I loved F\*ck the Small Talk, I was a little bit nervous at first but they are pros at making you feel comfortable with the rest of the group, the activities are really fun and I enjoyed every second (consider that the one who's saying this is very, very shy). Give it a try!” - *Brenda*
🗣 "It’s a wonderful experience, it’s like being a kid again, when you were at the park, playing with other kids, and just decided you were going to be best friends for the next hours. Maybe you’ll never see those kids again. But that hour was amazing because you both opened up and trusted each other." - *Sara*

**🤓 FAQ**
**• Can I come alone?**
Of course, we encourage it :) 99% of people do!
**• I signed up but never got an invite. Why?**
We usually get a high volume of sign-ups yet we like to keep it cozy & only invite around 25-30 people. Please try again next time if you do not receive an invite - no hard feelings 💛
**• Why do you charge?**
We value our time and put a lot of love, planning, and effort into creating & designing these experiences. ♥️ This is our project/business and what we give to the world and we think everything should be a fair exchange! 🎈 However, money should never be the reason for people not to attend. If you can’t afford it send us a message!
**• Can I bring my pet llama?**
100% yes, any *well-behaved* pets are highly encouraged as long as you can still focus on connecting with the humans around you! Especially llamas. Please confirm with us beforehand.

Spec-Driven Development with GitHub Spec-Kit - Barret Blake
**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.
