**Frontend developers in 2026 are spoiled for choice. New frameworks promising freedom, AI assistants promising to handle the boring parts. But between the framework debates and the quiet burnout, what actually delivers in day-to-day work?** Join us on **Tuesday, May 26**, for an evening focused on the honest reality of frontend development in 2026. Four engineers from Applifting and Mews will share what's actually working—and what isn't—in framework decisions, AI workflows, and the human side of keeping up with constant change. Let's meet in the **Applifting meetup space**, both in person and online. **We’ll start at 18:00.** 👉[ Register here](https://applifting.io/events/frontend-crew-talk-when-tools-move-faster-than-us) 👈 **if you want to attend in person. Spaces are limited and our event planner Anetka would be sad if we had to turn you away at the door!** **Who’s speaking?** **[Michal Čížek](https://www.linkedin.com/in/michal-%C4%8D%C3%AD%C5%BEek/)**, senior frontend developer at Applifting, will open with a side-by-side comparison of Next.js and TanStack Start—two frameworks with fundamentally different philosophies—to help you pick for your next project. **[Jan Marek](https://www.linkedin.com/in/j4n-marek/)**, senior software engineer at Mews, will follow with how frustration and laziness can guide useful AI workflows, automating each “I don't want to do this manually” from Slack thread to announcement. **[Tereza Šimková](https://www.linkedin.com/in/simkovat/)**, also a senior frontend developer at Applifting, will offer an honest, non-technical look at the hidden psychological toll of working with AI coding assistants. Then, they will be joined for the panel discussion by **[Matyas Mihálka](https://www.linkedin.com/in/matyasmih%C3%A1lka/)**, frontend tech lead at Applifting, bringing a grounded take on what AI coding tools actually deliver day-to-day and how to adopt them without burning out. **We look forward to meeting you!** **Schedule:** **17:30 – Doors open** * Get your ticket ready, say hello to others, and have a drink with us. 🥂 **18:00 – Introduction by Filip Kirschner** * Our co-founder Filip will give you a short welcome and introduce our speakers. **18:15 – Two philosophies, one decision: Next.js vs TanStack Start in 2026 with Michal Čížek** * *Next.js has shaped React for years.

Instruction level parallelism by [Ivica Bogosavljević](https://johnnysswlab.com/author/ibogi/) Instruction Level Parallelism (ILP) is the magic ingredient of a modern CPU that makes it run fast. But not all programs are equal, some have more ILP, others have less. In this talk we are going to investigate our codes from the viewpoint of ILP: which code has more ILP, which has less ILP, how does ILP affect software performance and what techniques we can use to speed up our software. Timetable: 18:00 Get together, setup, socialize 18:30 talk starts ??:?? talk ends, more socializing For those who want to join online here is the **[ZOOM LINK](https://us06web.zoom.us/j/83891473439?pwd=7HSo6db5TDdSQA72V0jVEkGMzhbZeu.1)** While you wait why not join our **[DISCORD SERVER](https://discord.gg/3FQFqkjPyc)**

Hello Python extractors and vulnerable agents, The 35th PyData meetup will take place at **Aisle offices** (Palác Zlatý kříž, 2nd floor). As usual, the talks will start at 18:30 but we encourage you to come as soon as **18:00** to enjoy the opportunity to socialize and refresh yourselves (which you can continue doing during the break and after the talks). Our main goal is to build the community around Python and data and make it welcoming to people of various skills and experience levels. ⚡ If you are interested in giving a lightning talk (up to 5 minutes to present an idea, tool or results related at least to some degree to Python and/or data), please contact us before the event or at its beginning. **What a Single-File LLM Security Analyzer Taught Us?** **([Stanislav Fort](https://www.linkedin.com/in/stanislav-fort/), Aisle)** High-quality AI security research can uncover real vulnerabilities in critical infrastructure. AISLE is one example of this higher-signal approach, with validated findings in projects like OpenSSL and curl. At the same time, low-quality AI-generated reports are flooding open-source maintainers with false positives. How hard is it to find a security bug? We will explore that question through nano-analyzer, a deliberately simple open-source security scanner. For many vulnerability classes, the surprising core is not a complex platform, but a well-aimed LLM call wrapped in the right workflow. This simplicity has limits. The approach may miss obvious issues, hallucinate risky findings, or produce inconsistent results across runs. That is why validation, triage, benchmarking, and human judgment matter, and why the real challenge is building reliable processes around unreliable primitives. **Getting reliable text when PDFs lie and OCR fails** **([Marcela Brichtová Piptová](https://www.linkedin.com/in/marcela-brichtov%C3%A1-piptov%C3%A1-b950ba184/), Rossum)** LLMs need text as an input. So before a model can reason about a document, we have to read the text, a step often treated as the "easy part" or a solved problem. But is it? In this talk, we will explore the hidden complexities of text extraction. This is especially critical for models like Rossum's T-LLM, an encoder-only architecture which heavily relies on high-quality input. You will learn why transactional documents are sometimes surprisingly hard for OCR, why you can't always just copy-paste text from a PDF, and why text extraction is still a topic for Rossum researchers (and our customer support team).

PangeAI is building agent-driven geospatial intelligence for anyone, turning natural language queries into instant spatial analysis and decisions, with no GIS knowledge required. Backed by autonomous agents we're focused on use cases geospatial context drive real decisions. We're headquartered in the Bay Area with our European HQ right next door in Prague. Maps encode rich spatial context that today's AI agents largely fail to interpret. In this talk, I'll share how we're teaching agents to "read" maps in production at PangeAI starting with geospatial embeddings as a practical foundation for geo-similarity detection, then layering multi-agentic orchestration on top to generate strategic geospatial insights at scale. Along the way, I'll walk through the tooling and frameworks we've built to make all of this tractable for engineers, with real-world examples and open questions at the intersection of geospatial data and agentic AI.

Join our discussion about prominent conspiracy theories. Either you’d like to debunk them or provide reasons for agreeing with them, we’d like to hear you! I’ve been arguing with my colleague Giuseppe at the office for three years now trying to prove him that the Moon landing did happen. After three years and his constant speculations, I hardly believe in it anymore. Still, I am pro science and he questions it, so I decided to bring us two and invite more curious people in to discuss pros and cons of the legitimacy of those theories. At our second seating, we will talk respectfully about: * Dinosaurs’ existence; * The conspiracy behind breakfast being the most important meal of the day; * 9/11 ‘Inside Job’. For each of the topic, please bring your opinion backed by facts that you would like to present to the group. Also, please be respectful of the people who think differently from you. Useful read to get into the concept of breakfast as a century-old marketing campaign engineered by food corporations: [Breakfast conspiracy](https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2016/nov/28/breakfast-health-america-kellog-food-lifestyle) See you all!

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** TBD

This is the 50th Anniversary of the Judgment of Paris. Significantly, in 1976, California wines unexpectedly outperformed French wines in a blind tasting with nine French judges, challenging the perception that only French wines were of the highest quality. This event helped elevate the status of California wines on the global stage and is considered a pivotal moment in wine history. House Wine, in Worthington, modestly, recreates that moment in history with a tasting both American and French wines in a fun, casual atmosphere. Come at 6:45, pay your fee at the register and join your friends for this "Judgey" tasting. https://www.wineenthusiast.com/culture/wine/the-judgment-of-paris-turns-40/ Arrive when you can and we'll have a table for gathering. Feel free to bring your own food as it is welcomed at this local gem or order from the newly opened Worthington Inn, or local favorites such as Dewey's, Everest, Jet, Worthington Tavern and The Whitney. Each person pays their tasting fee, typically $15, and gets their wine glass, then approximately five pours of the wines being served. **Parking is tough**. Try the second lot behind House Wine accessed by the land by the back parking lot or the municipal lot one block north of House Wine. **Waiver and Liability and Attendance Policy.** Participation by you and your guests means you agree to the Waiver of Liability and Attendance Policies on our Group Page.
