Join us on April 29th at ToughTech for an event exploring real challenges in modern software development. Dive into the trade-offs of distributed systems and eventual consistency, and learn how to turn AI into a practical part of your everyday development workflow. Connect with others, exchange ideas, and gain insights you can register right away - don’t miss out! Agenda: * **18:30 "Eventual Consistency: The Troublesome Trade-Off Behind Distributed Systems"** **by Andrius Ragelis** "No matter the architecture, data can become stale - and sometimes lead to costly issues. Fast, available, distributed - and occasionally wrong (for a moment). Let’s explore why these inconsistencies happen, how they manifest in real systems, and how to design around them effectively." * **19:10** "**From Hype to a Workflow: Integrating AI into the Everyday Work of Development**" **by Vidmantas Varnas** "Artificial Intelligence is becoming a core part of modern software development, yet many teams still lack practical ways to use it day to day. The key is finding where it truly adds value. From code and documentation to planning, debugging, and knowledge sharing-along with the common challenges and pitfalls." * **20:00 Bytes & Bites** The opportunity to become a student or a lecturer in disguise as you mingle, snack and connect with fellow tech enthusiasts is all yours. Don't worry about grades - here, laughter and nods are the ultimate measures of success! **Tech info about ToughTech:** * ToughTech journey will start at 18:30 - (guests will be welcome to enjoy snacks and network until 21:30) * The event will be conducted in LTU language * [REGISTRACIJA](https://forms.gle/5CEwREBFGFWYpMKW9)

Join us for an engaging panel discussion on **AI Agentic Coding** and how autonomous AI systems are transforming the way software is built. Experts in AI, software engineering, and developer tools will share insights on how agentic AI—systems that can plan, reason, and execute coding tasks—is reshaping modern development workflows. The discussion will cover topics such as AI-assisted development, productivity gains, challenges around reliability and governance, and what the future of software engineering may look like with AI agents as collaborators. Whether you’re a developer, tech leader, or AI enthusiast, this session is a great opportunity to learn, ask questions, and explore how agentic AI is redefining coding

It feels like we just saw each other 🤷. Join members of the local design and UX community for our monthly breakfast. For May we’re stopping in for Rooh’s popup breakfast/cafe concept. You know someone is getting the lobster yuzu croissant, and that’s not even the prettiest thing on the menu!.

**Latest Dojo Location!** **Knotty Pine Brewing** 1765 W 3rd Ave, Columbus, OH 43212 We're going to try a new dojo location for a few weeks and see how it works 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 speakers for our Monthly Meetups! Fill out the form if you are interested in presenting to the Python Community. https://forms.gle/ehSfUAC2WgR34Crq9

Let’s meet and share our thoughts about Carson McCullers’ novella, The Ballad of The Sad Café.

Private Group. Closed to the Public Knowing ourselves and understanding our abilities is the first step toward wielding our gifts with control and accuracy. In subsequent classes we will verify and hone our talents with activities and discussion. These are hands-on workshops and participation is expected. The goal of our series will be to develop expertise in areas of particular interest such as mediumship, channeling, divination, healing and, etc.. Our ultimate directions will be determined by class members as we evolve. I look forward to sharing and discovering with you. - Cynthia

Let's catch up and have a relaxed chat, including chat about the book Disability Visibility. This collection of essays is available at the library. You'll be invited to share the essay that you related to the most, and the essay that did the most to grow your awareness of something new. It's OK if you don't read the whole book!

Join other experienced and aspiring agile coaches and professionals to: * develop and practice your coaching skills in a peer-to-peer environment * share current successes and challenges in your work environment and get support from each other * learn from each other, build better relationships and experiment with new ideas ***NOTE:*** Pre-registration is required for this event. **Please arrive 10 minutes early** to check in at the security desk.
