AI-powered BDD 🤖❤️🧪
AI-powered BDD 🤖❤️🧪
🇭🇷 BDD (Behaviour-driven development) je vrlo učinkovit način razvoja softvera. Taj proces spaja analizu korisničkih zahtjeva i pisanje testova. Ovo predavanje će pokazati kako smo naš već "ispeglan" BDD process obogatili sa agentskim AI-jem. Developeri se sada većinom bave sa analizom zahtjeva i arhitekturom, a AI preuzima pisanje koda. 🇬🇧 BDD (Behavior-Driven Development) is a highly effective approach to software development. This process combines user requirements analysis with test writing. This talk will show how we enhanced our already well-refined BDD process with agentic AI. Developers now spend most of their time focusing on requirements analysis and architecture, while AI takes over much of the code writing. 📣 Speaker: [Marko Bjelac](https://www.linkedin.com/in/markobjelac) ⏰ Schedule: \- Introduction \- BDD with AI \- Q&A \- ⚡Lightning talks⚡ 🇭🇷 Za *munjevita predavanja* (⚡*lightning talks*⚡) se ne morate prijaviti unaprijed. Samo javite domaćinu na početku okupljanja da želite održati munjevito predavanje. Munjevita predavanja traju 5 minuta (ili manje) i mogu biti na bilo koju temu. Na pojedinom okupljanju će se održati onoliko munjevitih predavanja koliko ima zainteresiranih predavača. 🇬🇧 You don’t need to register in advance for ⚡*lightning talks*⚡. Just let the host know at the beginning of the meetup that you want to present a lightning talk. Lightning talks last 5 minutes (or less) and can be on any topic. At each meetup, as many lightning talks will be held as there are interested speakers. **🫵 You have a topic for a ZSC meetup?** 🇭🇷 Javite se domaćinu (Marko B) i sve ćemo dogovoriti! 🇬🇧 Get in touch with the host (Marko B), and we’ll sort everything out!

Ana-Marija Jagodić Rukavina-Pokret kao lijek
Ana-Marija Jagodić Rukavina-Pokret kao lijek
Nova gošća će pričati inovativnoj metodi koju je osmislila i znanstveno potvrdila dr. sc. Ana-Marija Jagodić Rukavina-Filozofija koja se temelji na "Body tehnici". Body tehnika nije samo sustav vježbanja, već holistički pristup koji stvara energetsku, fiziološku i funkcionalnu ravnotežu, povećavajući vitalnost, otpornost i dugovječnost. Ova ista filozofija duboko je povezana s osobnom transformacijom, autentičnošću i mentalnom snagom – vrijednostima koje dr. sc. Ana-Marija Jagodić Rukavina živi i promiče i izvan Body tehnike. Kao aktivistica, edukatorica i inspirativna govornica, Ana-Marija otvoreno dijeli svoju priču o hrabrosti, prevladavanju izazova te životu bez maski. Njezina poruka je jasna: istinska promjena događa se kada prestanemo živjeti prema tuđim očekivanjima i počnemo slušati sebe, svoje tijelo i svoje potrebe. Upravo zato s ponosom najavljujemo novo izdanje Level Up Meetup-a na kojem nam je gošća upravo dr. sc. Ana-Marija Jagodić Rukavina. Kroz vlastito životno iskustvo, padove i ponovno pronalaženje unutarnje snage, ona inspirira ljude da preuzmu odgovornost za svoj život, postave zdrave granice i izgrade autentične odnose. Na Meetupu ćemo se dotaknuti tema koje su ključne za cjeloviti razvoj – fizički, mentalni i emocionalni: \- Autentičnost u svijetu očekivanja – kako ostati svoj bez potrebe za odobravanjem \- Postavljanje granica \- Mentalno zdravlje bez tabua \- Samopouzdanje iznutra i izgradnja unutarnje snage \- Kvalitetni odnosi i svjesna komunikacija u vježbanju tijela \- Preuzimanje odgovornosti kao temelj dugoročne transformacije tijela Ana-Marija svojim direktnim, iskrenim i često duhovitim pristupom ne nudi samo inspiraciju – ona poziva na konkretnu akciju i dubinsku promjenu. Očekuje vas otvoren, iskren razgovor ispunjen energijom i realnim uvidima koji spajaju tijelo, um i emocije. Podaci za event: Moderator: Zoran Salopek 📍Pivana, Ilica 222, Zagreb 🗓13.05. u 18:00 h Organizator: Međunarodni institut za emocionalnu zrelost 🌐 http://emotionalmaturity.eu/
Autogenic training with the Power of Exhale
Autogenic training with the Power of Exhale
**Stress** is one of the greatest challenges of modern life. When stress becomes long-lasting, it can quietly turn into anxiety, affecting both mental and physical well-being and increasing the risk of more serious health issues. Through regular **mental hygiene**, we can gently influence our bodies and restore balance. By adding the power of the exhale to classical autogenic training, we enhance its effects. The energy of the exhale supports and accelerates the body’s natural process of restoration. Your donation for this event supports the work of our Club.

CBusData - Practical AI for Power BI Developers
CBusData - Practical AI for Power BI Developers
Practical AI for Power BI Developers A year ago, “agentic AI” was mostly hype for Power BI teams. Today, it deserves your undivided attention. For Power BI pros, there is now a real opportunity to reduce repetitive development work, accelerate delivery, and help developers do more, but only when strong DataOps practices are in place to make AI workflows effective. This session is a no-nonsense introduction to effective AI patterns for Power BI and Fabric development. Along the way, we will make sense of the growing pile of terminology, including skills, plugins, hooks, and MCP. You will see examples of how modern AI tooling can help with development tasks across Power BI and Fabric, along with the prerequisites, guardrails, and DataOps principles needed to use it responsibly. Whether you're burned out on AI hype or already using Copilot CLI daily, this session will show you the foundations that are finally making AI-assisted development genuinely useful.

Building Scalable Customer Identity Resolution Pipelines on AWS Using AI
Building Scalable Customer Identity Resolution Pipelines on AWS Using AI
Customer identity resolution becomes increasingly complex as organizations scale across multiple systems, regions, and data formats. Traditional rule-based approaches often fail to keep up with data variability, require constant manual tuning, and struggle with real-time processing needs. This session presents a practical approach to building a scalable identity resolution pipeline using AWS services and modern AI techniques. The architecture combines data ingestion through Amazon S3 and AWS Glue, transformation pipelines using Spark on EMR, and machine learning models deployed via SageMaker for entity matching and standardization. Graph-based relationship modeling is implemented using Amazon Neptune to improve resolution accuracy by incorporating household and shared attribute context. We will walk through how machine learning models can be used for name and address normalization, how intelligent blocking strategies improve matching efficiency, and how feedback loops can be introduced to continuously improve accuracy. The session also highlights how serverless components such as AWS Lambda can be used for orchestration and real-time processing. **SPEAKER BIO** Mosaic Syed is a Senior Data Engineering and Cloud Solutions Architect with over 20 years of experience designing and delivering scalable, secure, and high-performance data solutions across global enterprise environments. https://www.linkedin.com/in/mosaic-basha-syed-92300856 **CALL FOR SPEAKERS** Learn more: [https://www.awscolumbus.com/get-involved/](https://www.awscolumbus.com/get-involved/) **THANK YOU** *VEEAM* for hosting our meetup!

Free In-Person Meeting: Get Over Losses & Betrayals, Build Lasting Relationships
Free In-Person Meeting: Get Over Losses & Betrayals, Build Lasting Relationships
This is a free, in-person meeting on the subject of betrayals, losses and how to get over them so you can build lasting relationships. Burdened by a stressful relationship? Unhealthy relationships can trigger feelings of anger, despair or self-doubt. They can create dwindling spirals of fights and seeking to make-up, or trying to “pin the blame” on someone or something. If you don’t find the RIGHT reasons, or select the correct sources of the problem, the problem can just get worse and worse. Whether in love or personal ties, with friends or at work, our life really IS affected by the quality of our relationships. Good ones can promote pleasure and survival while less optimum ones can lead to annoyance, anger, self-doubt, stress, or even affect our health and ability to survive well. Whether you are suffering from a divorce, or a painful break-up, don’t know who to trust (or who to CHOOSE) as a partner, friend, boss or employee - the anxiety of relationship troubles can really make a mess of things. Maybe you’ve suffered a betrayal, or are dealing with hostility or criticalness or invalidation. Dwindling relationships can involve destructive behavior, where we hurt those we love, or start succumbing to self-destructive thoughts, attitudes or behaviors that spiral out of control and affect much more than our immediate relationship. Past losses in love or life can affect how we act or react to new people and situations and hold us back from even starting to create new, possibly great relationships! How can one get back onto a saner course of action? Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life: human relationships! Break free from self imposed limitations Here we will discuss: • How to “erase” the trauma of past hurts and betrayals so that one isn’t always repeating past mistakes. • Why and how do the negative emotions of others affect you? • Why is my partner withdrawing and what can I do about it? • Why do we sometimes feel compelled to hurt the ones we love? • Fights & arguments - what's really behind them? • What underlies “corrosive criticism” or the need to invalidate self or others? • How one can stably change one’s outlook on life so they can affect positive change? • Where do compulsive destructive behaviors come from and what can be done about them? • How to form closer bonds & keep growing the relationships with the people you care about? • How to enhance one’s own ability to survive and create positive healthy relationships whether in love, family & friendships or in work, business or one’s career? Relationships can be hard and life itself IS challenging. Why not arm yourself with the knowledge and breakthroughs that have been made about the mind, mental reactions & interpersonal relationships, so that one has better awareness and control over themselves and life in general. Learn where painful experiences are “stored” and how they can unknowingly affect us. You will also find out how one can “erase” those past painful experiences so that one is free to move forward without being tripped up by the past. Learn too, about what can lead some people to become “toxic” personalities and how to identify those traits in others so you won’t be tripped up trusting the wrong person. Our free Meet-ups occur in a safe environment where one can learn, without fear of judgment or criticism, and without the recommendation of harmful mental techniques or therapies, just how YOU can get yourself onto a happier & more successful path: in love & in life. We look forward to having you join us! This class is sponsored by the Dianetics & Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.
Data & Analytics Wednesday - Mapping and Dashboards
Data & Analytics Wednesday - Mapping and Dashboards
**Total Eclipse of the Chart: School Redistricting Dashboards** In this presentation, we will explore the utilization of maps, sets, and SQL within a Tableau dashboard to help provide “what-if” analyses generated through the use of a mapped dashboard, providing different scenarios and the potential implications of these. While in this use case we are focused on a large school district, the concepts of utilizing existing data to explore the future impacts of modifying different geographic boundaries can be useful to many industries, balancing the mix of maps with visual analytics. **About Our Speaker** Robert Kramer is the Data Systems and State Reporting Coordinator at South Western City Schools in Grove City. He has worked there for 17 years, serving previously in the roles of Data Analyst, Programmer, and Operations Coordinator. Prior to working at South Western, he worked as a Systems Engineer at Pinnacle Data Systems in Groveport. He graduated in 2005 from The University of Toledo with his Bachelor’s in Computer Science and Engineering, and a minor in Mathematics.
