IOT Hacking

Moeten we tegenwoordig nog zelf alle code schrijven, of kunnen AI-tools ons daarbij helpen? Tijdens deze meetup maken we kennis met Large Language Models (LLM’s) zoals ChatGPT en Claude als hulpmiddel bij het ontwikkelen van embedded software. In plaats van één specifieke technologie centraal te stellen, richten we ons op het effectief samenwerken met een LLM. Je leert hoe je duidelijke en gerichte prompts schrijft, zodat je betere en bruikbare resultaten krijgt. De kwaliteit van een prompt heeft namelijk grote invloed op de uiteindelijke code. Tijdens de workshop bouwen we samen, met hulp van een LLM, een werkend embedded programma voor een ESP32-ontwikkelboard. **Wat neem je mee?** Neem zelf een laptop mee met: * VSCode * PlatformIO We maken gebruik van: * Claude / ChatGPT * GitHub Copilot Er zijn enkele ESP32-boardjes beschikbaar om tijdens de workshop te gebruiken. **Voorbereiding** Het is handig om vooraf alvast enkele zaken op je laptop te installeren. Zie volgende document: **[Voorbereidingen voor de WorkShop](https://iotapeldoorn.nl/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/voorbereidingen-workshop.pdf)** **Kosten** Deelname kost €5,- inclusief drankjes. **Planning** * Inloop: 19:00 * Start workshop: 19:30 * Einde: 22:30 We zien jullie graag op woensdagavond 27 mei 2026!

Most apps don’t fail because of code — they fail because they don’t **make money**. In this live, hands-on session, we’ll build a real iOS app from scratch using AI-assisted (vibe) coding — and **integrate monetization** from the very beginning. No theory. Just a **real app, built step by step**. You’ll see: * how to go from idea to **working app** in under an hour * how to structure a simple product that can actually **generate revenue** * how **subscription models** work in practice (weekly, monthly, yearly) * what makes a **paywall convert** — and what kills it * how tools like **[Adapty](https://adapty.io/)** help you set your monetization right and make experiments! * **paywall experiments** without rebuilding your app This session is designed not only for developers, but also for **vibe coders, indie makers, and founders** who use AI tools to build products faster — even without a deep technical background. **What you’ll walk away with** * a clear understanding of how monetization fits into product design * a real example of a working app with a paywall * practical insights you can apply immediately **Format** * Live coding session (\~60 min) * Short discussion & Q&A **Who should attend** * mobile developers * vibe coders & AI builders * indie makers * startup founders **About the host** Sèrge Koval — iOS/macOS engineer with 17+ years of experience, cybersecurity specialist, and organizer of Luxembourg Vibe Coding workshops. **Stay in touch** After the session, I’ll share a few extra tips, resources, and updates in Adapty's Discord server: [https://discord.gg/jSrPYTXBTN](https://discord.gg/jSrPYTXBTN) There is also a dedicated "🇱🇺 luxembourg" channel! **Notes** The session will be conducted in English. 📍 OFFLINE and ONLINE from Luxembourg City 🗓 May 27\, 2026 \| 18:00–19:30 ⚡️Spots are limited to 500 — register now.

\# This meetup is around a third\-party organizer\, Focus Filmtheater\. You can either purchase your ticket online or right before the session\. **Seats are numbered**. # **Title**: Love Me Tender **Language**: French **Subtitles**: English **Length**: 134 min **Director**: Anna Cazenave Cambet **More info**: https://www.focusarnhem.nl/agenda/english-subs-love-me-tender/ **Ticket link**: https://www.focusarnhem.nl/tickets/144300/ **Synopsis:** In the midst of a painful divorce, Clémence realizes she no longer recognizes her life. Seeking freedom, she embarks on a journey of self-discovery that leads to a sapphic love affair. Her ex-husband uses this against her in a custody battle for their child. Anna Cazenave Cambet adapts Constance Debré’s autobiographical novel with sensitivity and precision. Beyond its commentary on homophobia and sexism, the film offers a moving reflection on motherhood and freedom, a modern *Kramer vs. Kramer* in French form. **How it works**: I will be at Focus around 18:15, where we can meet before the movie starts. You can message me to find us. Screening starts at 18:45. After the movie, we can have a drink together. Hope to see you soon!

**Leeds Power BI, Data & Analytics User Group — We’re Back!** After a short break, we’re excited to return with another fantastic evening of learning, networking, and community — hosted by **Hippo Digital** at **The Brew Society, Leeds**. Join us on **Wednesday 27th May 2026** for a high-quality, hybrid event featuring two brilliant speakers covering both **governance** and **design in Power BI** — two topics that every data professional needs to master. *** ## 🎤 **Speaker Line-Up** ### **Lazaros Viastikopoulos \| [metisbi.co.uk](metisbi.co.uk)** **Power BI Governance: The Foundations Matter More Than Ever** Practical lessons for governing Power BI at scale. A practical look at the Power BI governance foundations that still matter - even as the platform has evolved into being one workload of many within MS Fabric, surrounded by AI hype. Laz first delivered this talk in 2019. Before ChatGPT. Before Copilot. Before Fabric. He's giving it again in 2026 because the framework hasn't needed to change and because AI doesn't fix bad governance, it accelerates the consequences of it. The talk walks the practical journey between the different Power BI Deployment Approaches and covers the factors to set up between them. In short: the factors have not changed. The cost of skipping them has. *** ### **Shubhangi Goyal** **Wireframe to Report: A Practical Power BI Design Workflow** Learn a practical end to end workflow for designing Power BI reports, from requirements gathering and wireframing to final delivery and iteration. This session walks through a practical, end-to-end workflow for designing Power BI reports, from initial wireframing to a polished, production-ready dashboard. Attendees will learn how to translate business questions into clear layouts, choose the right visuals for the right insights, and apply design principles that improve usability and decision-making. *** ## 🎯 **What to Expect** * Insightful, practical sessions from experienced speakers * Real-world techniques you can apply immediately * A chance to connect with the Leeds data community * A relaxed, welcoming environment — whether you’re new or experienced *** ## 📍 **Event Details** **Location:** Hippo Digital, The Brew Society, Leeds LS1 4HT **Arrival:** 5:30 PM **Start:** 6:00 PM **Finish:** \~8:30 PM 🎥 **Hybrid Event:** Attend in person or join via YouTube livestream 🍕 **Food & Refreshments** Provided 🤝 **Networking** before and after talks *** ## 🙌 **Special Thanks** A big thank you to **Hippo Digital** for sponsoring and hosting this event. *** ## ⚠️ **RSVP Reminder** Spaces are limited for in-person attendance, so please RSVP early. If your plans change, kindly update your RSVP so someone else can attend. *** We’re excited to be back — and we can’t wait to see you there!

Every AI pipeline starts with one question: where does the data come from? In this hands-on workshop, we'll answer that question using Scrapy, one of Python's most powerful web scraping frameworks. You'll go from a blank project to a working spider that harvests structured data from the web, ready to feed into your next AI or data science project. We'll cover: • Scrapy vs. lighter tools (Requests & Beautiful Soup), and when each makes sense • Extracting data from HTML using CSS selectors • Following links and handling pagination at scale • Writing clean, structured output to a file • The ethical and legal side of web scraping Bonus (Gold Star): a chapter on scraping JavaScript-rendered pages for those who want to go further. 🐍 Python basics assumed — no prior scraping experience needed **Agenda** \- 18:00 Doors Open \- 18:30 Start of the Workshop \- 20:15 Workshop Closing & Announcements \- 20:30 Networking \- 21:00 Event Closing **GitHub Repo** [Scalable Data Harvesting for AI](https://github.com/pyladiesams/scalable-data-harvesting-for-ai-may2026) **Stream** [YouTube Stream](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0wqXbShaAvU) ​**📧 Contact** Are you interested in speaking at one of our events?

𝗗𝗮𝘁𝗮 𝗧𝗵𝘂𝗿𝘀𝗱𝗮𝘆 𝗶𝘀 𝗯𝗮𝗰𝗸 — 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗶𝘀 𝗱𝗶𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗻𝘁 🌱 On **Thursday, May 28**, we are proud to host a special **Data Thursday** edition at **B. Amsterdam**: **Cloud & Climate Pub Quiz** ☁️🌍 This will not be a classic sit-back-and-listen meetup. This is a **taste-of-tech game night** where #climate, #cloud, #AI, #CO₂, #costoptimisation and a bit of controlled chaos come together in one big interactive quiz. At **Data Tribes & EcoVerum,** we believe that climate impact, sustainability reporting and regenerative transformation all start with better data. This evening brings that belief to life in the most Data Thursday way possible: with sharp questions, practical insights, team play, pizza and drinks. Your personal quiz masters for the evening: 👷‍♂️ **Henk van der Valk** Platform & Intelligence Architect 👷‍♂️ **Marcel van der Kuil** Data & AI Impact Engineer Together, Henk and Marcel will join forces as **Buurman & Buurman for Cloud & Climate**, fixing things one quiz round at a time. Think climate science, cloud optimisation, AI-assisted answers, sharp questions, practical insights and probably a few moments of **“A je to!”** along the way. The evening includes three rounds: 🌍 **National Climate Quiz** 🌡️ **Climate Interactive EN-ROADS simulator** ☁️ **Cloud optimisation: cost, CO₂ and Scope 3** Bring your laptop. Teams will compete for points, prizes and eternal Data Thursday glory. AI is allowed, but beware: some answers need to be explained in your own words. 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗴𝗿𝗮𝗺 **// 18:00** — Doors open + pizza **// 18:30 – 19:15** — First round **// 19:15 – 20:00** — Second round **// 20:00 – 20:45** — Third round **// 20:45 – 21:00** — Wrap-up / evaluation **// 21:00 – 21:30** — Drinks & networking **// 21:30** — End 📍 **The Henry, B. Amsterdam — B.1** Johan Huizingalaan 763a, Amsterdam A big thank you to **B. Amsterdam** for once again supporting the Data Thursday community. Because without reliable data, there is no reliable climate action. And this time, we are testing what grows when cloud, climate, AI and community come together. Greetings, Data Tribes Inc & EcoVerum

👀 **LOOK at my lab!** *Een kijkje in de homelabs van I-share.* Ben jij ook nieuwsgierig naar waar I-share collega's zich mee bezighouden in hun vrije tijd? Spoiler: dat zijn vaak servers, zelfgebouwde netwerken en softwareprojecten die nét iets verder gaan dan 'gewoon voor werk'. Tijdens onze Meetup op donderdag 28 mei nemen: * Paul Aldabagh; * Daan Beltman; * Laurens Ghijsen; * Michael Loeffen. je mee in hun homelab! Ze laten zien wat er thuis draait, waarom ze ermee zijn begonnen en hoe hun setup zich heeft ontwikkeld. **Wat kun je verwachten?** Elke korte presentatie neemt je mee langs: * Wat is het? - Wat draait er eigenlijk? * Hoe begon het? - Het ontstaan en het idee erachter. * Let's talk tech - De technische opzet. * Is het ooit af? - Of blijf je altijd tweaken? 😉 **Voor wie?** Voor iedereen die nieuwsgierig is naar wat er allemaal thuis kan draaien. Je hoeft zelf geen homelab te hebben, interesse is genoeg. En wie weet ga je naar huis met frisse ideeën of zin om zelf te gaan bouwen! *Het programma zal deze avond als volgt zijn:* * Vanaf 17.15 u: inloop * Rond 17.30/18.00 u: eten * 18.30 u: start sessie * 20.00 u: afsluiting We zien jullie graag dan!

🎟️ **[REGISTER FOR THIS EVENT HERE](https://www.ministryoftesting.com/chapters/mot-netherlands/events/mot-netherlands-280526)** 🎟️ **The MoaCM ... which sounds a bit like Mokum (nickname for Amsterdam).** Every tester knows there’s always more going on beneath the surface: the unspoken questions, the unexpected discoveries, the “wait… what just happened?” moments that shape our craft. Our next chapter meeting leans right into that spirit. We’re pulling back the curtain on the things we don’t always talk about, the stories that don’t make the slides, and the hidden agendas that quietly steer our testing journeys. We offer you an evening full of curiosity, connection, and a few delightful surprises. Two awesome speakers will take the stage with talks crafted especially for this event. Sorry, no spoilers, but trust me, you will want to be in the room when they drop their insights. Add great food, lightning talks, stroopwafels, and the kind of hallway conversations that only happen at Ministry of Testing gatherings, and you’ve got yourself a night worth marking in bold on your calendar. **PROGRAM:** **17:00 – Arrival & Grabbing a Seat** Ease in, find your spot, and enjoy your complimentary stroopwafel. Consider it the warm‑up round for your brain. **17:20 – Opening Remarks** A quick kickoff to set the tone and spark your curiosity. **17:30 – Talk 1: Sanne Visser** The wheel is spinning but the hamster is stuck. (Knowing Sanne, expect something sharp, thoughtful, and delightfully unexpected). **18:30 – Dinner** Fuel up with good food, because even testers need to keep their internal combustion engines running smoothly. **19:30 – Talk 2: Veerle Verhagen** tba… (And yes, Veerle will absolutely bring her ever-present energy, brilliant insight, and probably a twist we will not see coming). **20:30 – Closing & Lightning Talks** A few final thoughts from your chapter lead, followed by the community taking the mic. Share an idea, pitch a question, or drop a testing gem … lightning‑style. **Followed by – Networking Drinks** Stay, chat, unwind, and connect. No fixed end time; we leave when the energy fades or the building politely tells us it’s time to go. 🎟️ **[REGISTER FOR THIS EVENT HERE](https://www.ministryoftesting.com/chapters/mot-netherlands/events/mot-netherlands-280526)** 🎟️

**From DLP Best Practices to Government Cloud Security with Microsoft Purview** **Datum, tijd, locatie** 📅 Datum: Vrijdag 29 Mei 2026 🕐 Tijd: 12:30 - 17:00 📍 Locatie: RawWorks, De Vork 2, 3984 PA Odijk **Introductie** Tijdens deze editie van de Dutch Data Security & Compliance Community Meetup #8 staat de realiteit van data security in zowel commerciële als publieke omgevingen centraal. We combineren twee krachtige praktijkperspectieven: de implementatie van Data Loss Prevention (DLP) binnen organisaties en een grootschalige cloudmigratie binnen de publieke sector met Microsoft Purview. Deze middag draait om concrete ervaringen, technische en organisatorische uitdagingen en lessons learned uit de praktijk. Verwacht inzichten die direct toepasbaar zijn om jouw data security en compliance aanpak te versterken. **Wat kan je verwachten?** **Sessie 1 – DLP in de praktijk: Best practices en lessons learned from the field** Martijn van Geffen (Microsoft) DLP binnen Microsoft Purview wordt steeds complexer door de opkomst van AI en het gebruik van meerdere enforcement engines. Traditionele aanpakken schieten tekort wanneer data via AI-tools wordt gedeeld, gekopieerd of geüpload. In deze sessie deelt Martijn van Geffen (Microsoft) praktijkervaringen met DLP-implementaties, met speciale aandacht voor DLP for AI. We bespreken hoe verschillende enforcement engines (Endpoint, Edge, Network, Cloud Apps) zich gedragen bij AI-scenario’s zoals copy/paste en file uploads — en waarom dit vaak leidt tot onverwachte pop-ups en policy-interacties. Daarnaast gaan we in op het verbeteren van de gebruikerservaring (policy tips, Outlook customizations, oversharing notificaties) en het reduceren van false positives. Je krijgt concrete best practices voor het ontwerpen van effectieve policies, het kiezen van de juiste engine voor AI-use cases en het beheersbaar maken van DLP in een moderne Microsoft 365-omgeving. **Customer case – Data Security x Heerenveen** Femke Helgering (RawWorks) Ronald Hofstra (Gemeente Heerenveen) Hoe beveilig je gemeentelijke data tijdens een cloudmigratie naar Microsoft 365? In deze customer case staat het data security traject van Gemeente Heerenveen centraal. Na de migratie is gestart met de implementatie van Microsoft Purview-functionaliteiten zoals Sensitivity Labels, Data Loss Prevention (DLP) en Data Lifecycle Management. Dit bracht zowel technische als organisatorische uitdagingen met zich mee op het gebied van governance, adoptie en bestaande werkwijzen. Femke Helgering (RawWorks) en Ronald Hofstra (Gemeente Heerenveen) delen de praktijkervaringen, keuzes en lessons learned uit dit traject. Je krijgt inzicht in hoe security en gebruiksvriendelijkheid in balans kunnen worden gebracht binnen een overheidscontext. **Agenda** * 12:30 – Inloop met koffie en lunch * 13:30 – Opening door DDSCC * 13:45 – Introductie door RawWorks * 14:00 – DLP in de praktijk: Best practices en lessons learned from the field, Martijn van Geffen, Microsoft * 14:45 – Pauze * 15:15 – Customer case - Data Security x Heerenveen, Femke Helgering & Ronald Hofstra, RawWorks & Gemeente Heerenveen * 16:00 – Ronde tafel gesprekken * 16:30 – Borrel & netwerken (tot 17:00 uur) **Additionele informatie** **Parkeren** Bezoekers kunnen parkeren bij de parkeerplaats van de Sint Nicolaas Kerk: Sint Nicolaaslaan 1, 3984 JA Odijk Vanaf daar is het enkele minuten lopen naar de locatie van RawWorks.

**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** Like it or not, AI agents are now capable of turning a quickly written paragraph of requirements into a pull request that is ready to be integrated into real-world production applications and it's now our responsibility to make sure AI doesn't go rogue and take down prod - or corrupt our data by misunderstanding the requirements or our existing schemas. In this session we'll explore strategies to protect our codebases through unit and integration testing, documentation, and code review along with additional ways of providing context and guard rails to our AI agents as they carry out the work we've assigned them to do. By the time we're done, you'll have a firm grasp of the problem and understand some helpful options for protecting your codebase from vibe coding mishaps getting YOLOed into prod. **YouTube Link** https://youtube.com/live/BltmWMH1zG0?feature=share
