Penser avec RILKE : l’épreuve de la solitude
Penser avec RILKE : l’épreuve de la solitude
**Billeterie en ligne :** [https://www.eventbrite.fr/e/billets-penser-avec-rilke-lepreuve-de-la-solitude-1979788658171](https://www.eventbrite.fr/e/billets-penser-avec-rilke-lepreuve-de-la-solitude-1979788658171) Exerçons ensemble notre pensĂ©e Ă  partir d'un texte philosophique ! Une parole peut parfois changer une vie, non en donnant des rĂ©ponses, mais en offrant un autre regard plus poĂ©tique.C’est ce qui arrive lorsqu’on lit les *Lettres Ă  un jeune poĂšte* de Rilke : certaines phrases Ă©clairent des zones jusque-lĂ  ignorĂ©es, d’autres mettent des mots sur ce que nous pressentions sans pouvoir le formuler. Rilke nous touche parce qu’il a acceptĂ© sa propre solitude, et qu’il l’a explorĂ©e sans chercher Ă  la combler. Quand il s’adresse Ă  nous, il ne transmet pas un savoir achevĂ©, il nous invite Ă  Ă©couter notre profondeur, Ă  marcher dans nos propres zones d’ombre et de lumiĂšre. \*\*\* Exerçons ensemble notre pensĂ©e Ă  partir des textes qui ont inspirĂ© l’HumanitĂ© ! VĂ©ritable exercice de la pensĂ©e, cet atelier nous propose d’explorer en commun une question Ă  partir d’un texte philosophique et ses arguments. Nous dĂ©couvrirons une mĂ©thode pour entrer en profondeur dans la pensĂ©e du philosophe, dĂ©gager de nouveaux questionnements et faire des liens avec notre vie quotidienne. **DĂ©roulĂ©** * 1 heure et 30 minute d’étude de texte, reformulation, questions **Date et lieu** 📅 Date : Dimanche 10 mai Ă  17h 📍Lieu : Espace Le Moulin, 48 rue du fer Ă  Moulin 75005 Paris đŸŽŸïž Tarif : 7€ tarif unique
1 - "Une chambre Ă  soi" V. Woolf ; 2 - Les Nourritures terrestres" A. Gide
1 - "Une chambre Ă  soi" V. Woolf ; 2 - Les Nourritures terrestres" A. Gide
Ce soir, dans le cadre du cycle gĂ©nĂ©ral, nous avons votĂ© : **1 - "Une chambre Ă  soi" de Virginia Woolf** "Bravant les conventions avec une irritation voilĂ©e d'ironie, Virginia Woolf rappelle dans ce dĂ©licieux pamphlet comment, jusqu'Ă  une Ă©poque toute rĂ©cente, les femmes Ă©taient savamment placĂ©es sous la dĂ©pendance spirituelle et Ă©conomique des hommes et, nĂ©cessairement, rĂ©duites au silence. Il manquait Ă  celles qui Ă©taient douĂ©es pour affirmer leur gĂ©nie de quoi vivre, du temps et une chambre Ă  soi..." Babelio **2 - "Les nourritures terrestres" d'AndrĂ© Gide** "AndrĂ© Gide, exaltĂ©, sensuel, lyrique. Les Nourritures Terrestres, oeuvre de jeunesse, est un hymne panthĂ©iste. Il cĂ©lĂšbre la vie, la nature, le dĂ©sir. Sa composition est kalĂ©idoscopique. Les genres y sont mĂȘlĂ©s : notes de voyages, fragments de journal intime, rondes et ballades, dictionnaire poĂ©tique, dialogues fictionnels. Toutes les formes d'Ă©criture sont convoquĂ©es pour dire l'ardeur avec laquelle Gide tente d'exister ..." Babelio ***On peut lire l'un ou les deux livres programmĂ©s.*** **Pour les prĂ©sentations d'auteurs :** -NicolaĂŻ fera une prĂ©sentation d'AndrĂ© Gide pour donner du contexte Ă  nos discussions ; \- Dominique fait la prĂ©sentation d'auteur de Virginia Woolf **Pour les focus sur l'oeuvre :** \- Emile fait le focus sur l'oeuvre de" Les Nourritures terrestres ; \- Margot fait celui de "Une chambre Ă  soi Et n'oubliez pas !

CBusData - Practical AI for Power BI Developers
CBusData - Practical AI for Power BI Developers
Practical AI for Power BI Developers A year ago, “agentic AI” was mostly hype for Power BI teams. Today, it deserves your undivided attention. For Power BI pros, there is now a real opportunity to reduce repetitive development work, accelerate delivery, and help developers do more, but only when strong DataOps practices are in place to make AI workflows effective. This session is a no-nonsense introduction to effective AI patterns for Power BI and Fabric development. Along the way, we will make sense of the growing pile of terminology, including skills, plugins, hooks, and MCP. You will see examples of how modern AI tooling can help with development tasks across Power BI and Fabric, along with the prerequisites, guardrails, and DataOps principles needed to use it responsibly. Whether you're burned out on AI hype or already using Copilot CLI daily, this session will show you the foundations that are finally making AI-assisted development genuinely useful.
Data & Analytics Wednesday - Mapping and Dashboards
Data & Analytics Wednesday - Mapping and Dashboards
**Total Eclipse of the Chart: School Redistricting Dashboards** In this presentation, we will explore the utilization of maps, sets, and SQL within a Tableau dashboard to help provide “what-if” analyses generated through the use of a mapped dashboard, providing different scenarios and the potential implications of these. While in this use case we are focused on a large school district, the concepts of utilizing existing data to explore the future impacts of modifying different geographic boundaries can be useful to many industries, balancing the mix of maps with visual analytics. **About Our Speaker** Robert Kramer is the Data Systems and State Reporting Coordinator at South Western City Schools in Grove City. He has worked there for 17 years, serving previously in the roles of Data Analyst, Programmer, and Operations Coordinator. Prior to working at South Western, he worked as a Systems Engineer at Pinnacle Data Systems in Groveport. He graduated in 2005 from The University of Toledo with his Bachelor’s in Computer Science and Engineering, and a minor in Mathematics. Robert resides in Obetz with his wife, and their 15 and 12 year-old daughters. He was also just elected to his 3rd four-year term on the Obetz City Council.

Building Scalable Customer Identity Resolution Pipelines on AWS Using AI
Building Scalable Customer Identity Resolution Pipelines on AWS Using AI
Customer identity resolution becomes increasingly complex as organizations scale across multiple systems, regions, and data formats. Traditional rule-based approaches often fail to keep up with data variability, require constant manual tuning, and struggle with real-time processing needs. This session presents a practical approach to building a scalable identity resolution pipeline using AWS services and modern AI techniques. The architecture combines data ingestion through Amazon S3 and AWS Glue, transformation pipelines using Spark on EMR, and machine learning models deployed via SageMaker for entity matching and standardization. Graph-based relationship modeling is implemented using Amazon Neptune to improve resolution accuracy by incorporating household and shared attribute context. We will walk through how machine learning models can be used for name and address normalization, how intelligent blocking strategies improve matching efficiency, and how feedback loops can be introduced to continuously improve accuracy. The session also highlights how serverless components such as AWS Lambda can be used for orchestration and real-time processing. **SPEAKER BIO** Mosaic Syed is a Senior Data Engineering and Cloud Solutions Architect with over 20 years of experience designing and delivering scalable, secure, and high-performance data solutions across global enterprise environments. https://www.linkedin.com/in/mosaic-basha-syed-92300856 **CALL FOR SPEAKERS** Learn more: [https://www.awscolumbus.com/get-involved/](https://www.awscolumbus.com/get-involved/) **THANK YOU** *VEEAM* for hosting our meetup!

LLM Showdown: ChatGPT vs Claude vs Gemini vs Local Models
LLM Showdown: ChatGPT vs Claude vs Gemini vs Local Models
Join us for a practical, beginner-friendly guide to choosing the right large language model. We’ll compare major models like ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Llama, talk about when to use hosted APIs versus local models, and break down the tradeoffs around cost, speed, quality, privacy, context windows, coding ability, and reliability. You’ll leave with a clearer mental model for picking an LLM based on your actual use case instead of hype, benchmarks, or brand names. No deep AI background required. LOGISTICS AND PARKING: The talk starts at 7:00 PM. The first half hour is reserved for everyone to get set up and mingle. Free pizza and drinks! The cheapest parking option is to find street parking, which will only cost you a few bucks. Otherwise, park in the nearby veteran's museum lot for $8. It's highly recommended you avoid the nearby $15 garage parking.
