Let's explore the Jakarta nightlife until the small hours of the night. Come alone or with your better half, a friend, or a family member. We will meet in front of Little Tokyo Blok M to start the night and from there decide together where to go. We can have street food, some drinks, a beer or a coffee, small bites. Arrive any time after 9.30 PM and but be on time if you want to have a say on where the group should go 😊 If the group already moved somewhere else (tentatively around 10.00 PM-10.30 PM) find everyone by keeping an eye on the comment section! You can also leave a comment to suggest where the group should go during the night, and share your favourite spot around Blok M. About the meeting place (**Little Tokyo Blok M**): Find them on Google: https://maps.app.goo.gl/KL6gDAx8ZLrP5yge8 They have live music and an upstair terrace. This is a **free event** to encourage many people to join our lively and welcoming community! See you on Friday in Blok M!

🎉🔥**Road to Unconference 2026!**🔥🎉 **Event terbesar [My First Bitcoin](https://myfirstbitcoin.org/) di Asia akan segera hadir 🚀** **Kita akan mengadakan Bitcoin Unconference pertama kami—** **mengumpulkan pemula, alumni, hingga Bitcoiner dari berbagai penjuru dunia.** **📍 Surabaya — 22 Agustus 2026** **🚨Tempat terbatas.** **Kalau kamu mau jadi bagian dari ruang diskusi yang beda…** **👉 amankan tiketmu sekarang:** **[unconference.bitcoinindonesia.xyz](https://unconference.bitcoinindonesia.xyz/)** Halo Bitcoiner Jakarta! 👋 Kita sering fokus ke “cara pakai” Bitcoin—kirim, terima, simpan. Tapi ada satu hal yang sering baru kepikiran belakangan: privasi. Sebenarnya, seberapa banyak jejak yang kita tinggalkan saat bertransaksi? 🤔 Di meetup kali ini, kita bakal ngobrol santai tentang *Privasi dengan Fedi*—sebuah pendekatan yang mencoba bikin penggunaan Bitcoin jadi lebih nyaman tanpa harus terlalu terekspos. 🔐⚡ Kita akan bahas kenapa privasi itu penting, bukan karena mau “sembunyi”, tapi karena ini bagian dari kontrol atas diri sendiri. Dari situ, kita juga bakal lihat bagaimana Fedi bekerja dan kenapa konsepnya menarik untuk dipahami. ☕ Nggak perlu khawatir kalau kamu belum familiar—kita bahas dengan cara yang santai dan mudah dicerna. Justru ini jadi kesempatan buat mulai paham dari dasar, tanpa harus lompat ke hal yang terlalu teknis. 💡 Menariknya, dari topik ini biasanya cara pandang kita ikut berubah. Bitcoin jadi bukan cuma soal teknologi atau aset, tapi juga tentang bagaimana kita menjaga ruang pribadi di dunia digital. 🌐✨ Meetup ini cocok buat kamu yang ingin menggunakan Bitcoin dengan lebih sadar dan bijak, atau sekadar penasaran dengan topik privasi yang sering dibicarakan di komunitas. 🤝 Yuk gabung dan eksplor bareng bagaimana privasi bisa jadi bagian penting dalam perjalanan kamu menggunakan Bitcoin. Sampai ketemu di meetup! 🚀⚡ ​\*\*[Bitcoinstitution – Helping visionary business leaders to beat inflation & survive the World War III](https://goakal.com/bitcoinstitution)\*\* ​ **👤 LEADER KOMUNITAS JAKARTA: [BANG RICKY](https://goakal.com/bitcoinstitution)** ​Bang Ricky — motor penggerak komunitas **Bitcoinstitution Jakarta**.

Hello everyone! We're very excited to be hosting an **IN-PERSON** meetup in Jakarta. We look forward to seeing you there! The address, agenda, and speaker information can be found below. See you there! **📍 Venue:** WeWork Revenue Tower Scbd, Jl. Jend. Sudirman No.52-53, Senayan, Kebayoran Baru Jakarta, JK 12190 Room 25A **Important:** * To obtain an elevator pass, all visitors are required to exchange their ID/driver's license/passport in the building lobby's reception area. \*\*\* **🗓 Agenda:** * 7pm: Doors open * 7pm - 7:30pm: Pizza, Drinks, and Networking * 7:30pm - 8:00pm: Gandhi Manalu Senior Customer Success Technical Architect, Confluent * 8:00pm - 8:30pm: Additional Q&A & Networking \*\*\* **💡 Speaker:** Gandhi Manalu Senior Customer Success Technical Architect, Confluent **Talk:** Kafka Consumers, Evolved - Exploring KIP-848 & KIP-932 **Abstract:** Kafka's consumer model is evolving fast. This talk will revisit the fundamentals of partitions and consumer groups, then dives into KIP-848, the new rebalance protocol that makes rebalances more incremental, reduces stop-the-world disruption, and keeps unaffected consumers moving. From there, we will explore KIP-932 and share groups, showing how Kafka is gaining queue-like consumption patterns that can scale processing beyond the classic one-partition-per-consumer limit. If you build Kafka applications and want an accessible, forward-looking look at where consumers are headed next, this session connects the protocol changes to real-world scalability, elasticity, and new application design patterns. \*\*\* ***DISCLAIMER*** BY ATTENDING THIS EVENT IN PERSON, you acknowledge that risk includes possible exposure to and illness from infectious diseases including COVID-19, and accept responsibility for this, if it occurs.

More benefits in the hands of our disabled Veterans. We created Smart Search, the world’s largest consumer of Amazon Textract, right when GenAI began reshaping what’s possible. Since then, we’ve built a suite of AI‑driven solutions that transform this data into real, measurable outcomes—accelerating benefits decisions for our Nation’s Veterans. Join us for a focused conversation on how an outcome‑driven approach to AI is helping us boost accuracy, streamline workflows, and deliver faster results for those who have served.

Bienvenue! We host a twice-a-month French conversation club at La Chatelaine on Lane. All levels welcome! Whether you're new to French or running for Président de la République you are welcome here!

Join the Columbus AI community for a special event. **Battle of the Personal Agents** is your chance to see what people are actually building with AI agents and personal automation systems. Whether you’re running OpenClaw, Hermes, or a completely custom solution, bring your agent and show the community how it works. We’re interested in real-world implementations: the problems your agent solves, how you use it day-to-day, how it’s hosted and managed, how you built it, and why you’ve chosen to keep using it. Live demonstrations are encouraged, so be prepared to show your code, architecture, workflows, and your agent performing real tasks. This is less about polished presentations and more about sharing practical experience, comparing approaches, and learning from one another. If you’d like to present, please contact Chris Slee (via meetup) before the event so we can allocate enough time for everyone’s demonstrations. Come ready to show what you’ve built, discover what others are doing, and maybe find a few ideas worth taking home. Whether you’re deep in the field or just getting curious, come connect with others building and exploring AI in Columbus.

Whether you're a product manager, on a product team, or just someone trying to get AI to actually stick at work, you'll leave with a clear picture of what's worth focusing on, what to ignore, and how to drive real, sustained adoption — no guesswork required. 🛠️ What to Bring Laptop: Fully charged and ready to go.
