Dyslexie Cafe Utrecht is er voor alle conceptuele denkers. Voor mensen met dyslexie, hun naasten
 en voor iedereen met een brein dat net even anders werkt. Een plek voor ontmoeting en herkenning. Hier hoef je niet uit te leggen
waarom je hoofd sneller denkt dan je hand kan schrijven.
Of waarom je ideeën grenzeloos zijn
maar niet altijd uitkomen zoals je zou willen. Hier mag je binnenlopen bij mensen die weten hoe het voelt. en schaamteloos jezelf zijn. Tijdens het cafe creëren we ruimte, praten we over de krachten en de uitdagingen. Niet hangen en luisteren maar interactief ontdekken. Soms met een thema.
 Soms ontstaat het gesprek vanzelf.
 De inhoud wordt mede bepaald door jou. Kom en deel je verhaal, stel vragen en ontdek nieuwe inzichten met mensen zoals jij.

Boardgame night #176 The idea is: play a game, have a drink and chat with friendly people. We start around 20.00 with playing board games so that's the perfect time to jump in and play with us. We will bring a couple board games, but you're also welcome to bring your own games. Feel free to join, bring friends or family. We hope to play with you then! You can also signup on facebook.

Give your still good laptop a second life instead of ditching it because Windows 11 says it is no good... Or you heard Linux is cool. If you have a backup of your data, that is great, else indicate that you do not, so we can help you. Do so in an extra message or to m10@m10tech.nl, else I don't receive your information. Geef je laptop die het nog prima doet een tweede kans in plaats van hem af te schrijven omdat Window 11 dat zegt... Of omdat je hoorde dat Linux gaaf is. Als je al een backup van je data hebt gemaakt is dat perfect. Of verwacht je dat wij dat doen? In dat geval graag aangeven hoe vol je harde schijf nu is... Doe dat in een extra bericht of aan m10@m10tech.nl, want de info komt anders niet door.

Let us meet, have a coffee and code together, or just discuss :)! This Meetup is everyone that considers himself "Techie", in the broad sense and wants to socialize :). Join us and chat, ask your questions, or work on your own projects. The choice is yours! There is no agenda, this is simply a gathering of interested folks :). We're meeting at Lebkov right inside the Utrecht Centraal station. We're typically sitting at the large table. Search for the folks with the laptops in the back! You are very welcome to join whether you are an experienced developer, or simply interested and want to chat!

In this hands-on workshop we’ll work through four real-world scenarios in Python: finding the minimum viable context for sales questions, keeping frequency signals intact when summarizing support tickets at scale, selecting the right columns for churn analysis on a wide customer table, and extracting structured fields from messy product listings with validation you can trust. You’ll write and discuss code together — practical patterns you can take straight back to work. **Agenda** \- 18:00 Doors Open \- 18:30 Start of the Workshop \- 20:00 Workshop Closing & Announcements \- 20:10 Networking \- 21:00 Event Closing **GitHub Repo** [https://github.com/pyladiesams/feed-AI-agentic-beast-proper-data-jun2026](https://github.com/pyladiesams/feed-AI-agentic-beast-proper-data-jun2026) **Stream** [YouTube Stream](https://www.youtube.com/live/2EnszJLzzAc) **Speaker** [Jessica Eggen](https://www.linkedin.com/in/jessica-eggen-579b50155/) Jessica Eggen is a Data Analytics Engineer who loves to spent her time wrangling and puzzling with real-world data at scale.

**ArnhemJUG** We are excited to announce that we are welcomed by TenneT for the June meetup. Please note that TenneT **requires** all visitors to present a **valid ID** upon entry and that we must provide a list of attendees in advance. For this reason, **we need your full name** as it appears on your ID. If your Meetup username is different from your real name, we'll get in touch before the event to confirm the name on your ID. Also note that we start 10 minutes earlier than normal, the first talk will start at 18:20 **Agenda** * 17:00 CET walk-in * 17:30 – 18:20 Food and drinks * 18:20 – 19:10 talk: **How we develop and maintain our (12 year old) DDD app** by **Dan Haywood** * 19:10 – 19:30 break * 19:30 – 20:20 talk: **AI augmented teams: from tab complete to AI workforce** by **Radek Kowalski** * 20:20– 20:45 drinks **How we develop and maintain our (12 year old) DDD app** We’re a small team (about 2.5 FTEs) but we develop and maintain a big app - it processes €500m invoices in turnover each year, for a €4bn company that owns and operates shopping centres throughout Europe. And it’s a DDD app too … it’s our focus on the domain that allows us to do a lot with, well, not much. In this talk we’ll try to explain our way of doing things, some of which might be obvious and you’ll know, some of which could be a bit more contentious or surprising. The technology may intrigue you, but the mindset is just as important. **About Dan Haywood** Dan Haywood is an independent consultant based in the UK, an ASF member and committer to Apache Causeway. He spends his days either cutting code or advising governments. **AI augmented teams: from tab complete to AI workforce** Ten months ago, when Radek and his team launched their project under a tight deadline and limited budget, it seemed nearly impossible. Fortunately, it was 2025—and agentic coding tools were ready to help. The team embraced these tools as a lifeline, developing a workflow where engineers and AI agents built software side by side. The result: delivery ahead of schedule and within budget. In this talk, Radek shares how the team’s approach evolved, the practical strategies they developed, and the lessons they learned to overcome constraints in time and cost. **About Radek Kowalski** Over a 20+ year career in IT, Radek has grown from software engineer to architect to senior leader—before returning to the trenches to embrace the AI revolution and shape it firsthand. In the past year, he has helped organizations and engineering teams embed AI into both their business and daily workflows.

Ongeveer eens per maand is er een Bitcoin Meetup in Arnhem. Dit keer met een presentatie en Q&A van Hester Bais. Zie ook de promo video: [https://www.arnhembitcoinstad.nl/media/2026-06-26-MeetupHesterBais/PromoMeetupHesterBais.mp4](https://www.arnhembitcoinstad.nl/media/2026-06-26-MeetupHesterBais/PromoMeetupHesterBais.mp4) Sinds 2014 dringt de Nederlandse advocaat en klokkenluider Hester Bais er bij de autoriteiten op aan om een grootschalige internationale bankfraude in OTC-derivaten en constructies met onderpand en lege entiteiten stop te zetten. Door hun handelswijze raakten banken in Nederland voor ongeveer €200 miljard, in Duitsland voor €400 miljard, in Frankrijk voor €320 miljard, en in het Verenigd Koninkrijk voor €300 miljard onder water met betrekking tot het onderpand—en mondiaal gaat het om biljoenen euro’s. Samen met Wink Sabée schreef Hester het boek Worst Bank Scenario, waarin in detail wordt beschreven hoe “Bretton Woods 2.0” wordt uitgerold.

Most people still use AI like a search box: type one question, get one answer, repeat. But the next step is AI agents: systems that can take a goal, break it into steps, use tools, remember context, and produce useful work for a human to review. In this beginner-friendly session, we’ll demystify what AI agents actually are — without hype or jargon. We’ll walk through practical examples of how agents can help with research, planning, writing, coding, operations, and personal productivity. We’ll cover: * What makes an AI “agent” instead of just a chatbot * How agents break tasks into steps * Where agents are genuinely useful today * Where they fail, hallucinate, or need human review * How to design simple AI workflows for your own work * A live demo of an AI agent-style workflow from start to finish No coding experience required. This is for anyone who wants to understand where AI tools are going and how to use them more effectively right now. 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.

Extensions allow developers to customize the editor with new features, integrations, and workflow improvements tailored to their needs. In this session, we’ll cover what extensions are and the different types available, including full extensions written in TypeScript or JavaScript, along with lighter-weight extensions such as color themes, language packs, language support, code snippets, and keymaps. We’ll also look at practical reasons a developer might create an extension, from automating repetitive tasks to adding custom tooling. The session includes a hands-on walkthrough of creating a new extension, testing it locally, and understanding the basic project structure. We’ll close with a brief overview of how extensions are packaged and published to the Visual Studio Marketplace and other distribution options. **YouTube Link** TBD

Dodgeball is back again! If you’ve been wanting to come out, this is an easy one to join. We’ll be playing for about 1.5 to 2 hours, you do not need to bring any equipment, and no experience is needed. We use a specific set of rules and equipment to make the games run better and keep them fun for everybody, not just people who already know how to play. If it rains, the event will be canceled.

Grab a drink or some food and get to know each other. This is our first event and we can take it slow. I’d love to meet everyone and hear if there’s anything you like to get out of the group. Looking forward to meeting you all!
