**ArnhemJUG** We are excited to announce that we are welcomed by Avisi for the March meetup. **Agenda** * 17:00 CET walk-in * 17:30 – 18:30 Food and drinks * 18:30 – 19:30 talk: **Koog your own AI! Delicious recipes** by **Simon Vergauwen** * 19:30 – 19:45 break * 19:45 – 20:45 talk: **Domain-Driven Design** by **Dirk Groot** * 20:45 – 21:30 drinks **Koog your own AI! Delicious recipes** Koog is an open-source Kotlin framework for building robust, and production-ready AI agents. Developed, and battle-tested in their own products by JetBrains! In this session we’ll build an agent, and explore various techniques to tackle different kinds of problems, and complexity. How we can use model-context protocol (MCP) to give our agent access to external tools, and how to build custom tools to integrate with your own systems. How to define flexible graph workflows to design complex agent behaviors. If you're not cooking your own AI Agents yet, you should! Join me and I’ll give you a taste of Koog. **About** **Simon Vergauwen** **Developer Advocate at JetBrains & OSS (arrow-kt) Maintainer** **Software engineer from Antwerp, Belgium.** Interested in everything functional, and Kotlin. Loves OSS, cooking, snowboarding and Fallou **Domain-Driven Design** What name should I give this entity? How should I deal with ambiguous terminology? Where should business rules be implemented? Is this validation part of the domain logic, or does it belong to the application layer? Which entities should be within the scope of this database transaction? In this talk we explore how the **Domain-Driven Design (DDD)** methodology helps answer questions like these. We will cover the key DDD concepts, including **Ubiquitous Language**, **Bounded Context**, **Aggregates**, **Entities**, and **Value Objects**, and discuss how they fit within a software architecture. The session is built around a practical example, so you will not only learn the theory behind DDD, but also see how these concepts can be applied in real-world software development. **About Dirk Groot** I'm a software engineer with more than 25 years of experience. Since my early teens, sofware engineering has been my greatest passion.

Hi all, This will be our seventh meetup and we’re back at our local watering hole, Mick O’Connells. We have the right side reserved just for us. When you walk in, turn right at the bar and head past the dart boards. It’s the side room. Bring your stories, your energy and your ambition. This is a space to talk business, meet sharp people, or simply decompress with others who understand the game. All we ask is that you are an entrepreneur, freelancer, or planning to become one within the next 3 months. If not, the countdown starts now 😉 We’ve introduced a new social format to keep things more interactive while protecting the good vibe. Please do your best to arrive on time so we can kick things off together properly. Follow the grey and brown gnome in the photo below to find us. He’s our mascot. Any questions, just ask.

Tickets: https://vorstin.stager.co/shop/default/events/111575211 Met de hoge opkomst én de ongekende energie in de zaal en op het podium bewijst dit concept keer op keer dat er in Hilversum behoefte is aan metal! Daarom is het tijd voor een nieuwe editie van METALCAFE Live in De Vorstin! Op 27 maart staat er metalcore en melodic hardcore op het programma, met optredens van Previse + Reality Spill + Sugar Spine Previse Wat ooit begon als een kleine coverband, die nummers speelde van hun favoriete artiesten (Polaris, Parkway Drive, Enter Shikari, Beartooth en vele anderen), groeide uit tot een band met een krachtig eigen repertoire. Ongeacht waar ze spelen, Previse zit vol energie en de bandleden geven alles wat ze hebben op het podium. Reality Spill Reality Spill is een vierkoppige metalcore band uit Overijssel. Sinds 2021 timmert de band hard aan de weg en hebben ze al meerdere releases en talloze liveshows op hun naam staan in binnen en buitenland. Eind 2024 verscheen hun tweede EP ‘The End of the World’; een nieuwe sound die naast de vertrouwde metalcore sound, uitstapjes maakt naar hardcore, electronica en pop-punk. Verwacht een gezonde dosis energie en chaos op het podium bij een show van Reality Spill! Sugar Spine Sugar Spine is een opkomende metallic hardcore band uit Nederland, die een meedogenloze mix brengt van hardcore, metalcore en deathcore. Hun sound schakelt moeiteloos tussen verschillende stijlen en laat duidelijke invloeden horen van bands als Stick To Your Guns, (early) Slipknot, END en Boundaries. Wat begon als een soloproject van vocalist Josh Muncke in 2021, groeide in 2023 uit tot een volwaardige liveband die in korte tijd het podium deelde met internationale acts zoals Jesus Piece, Breakdown of Sanity, Half Me en Misery Signals. Daarnaast werkte Sugar Spine samen met artiesten als Bleed From Within, Cabal, To The Grave, Distant en Born Of Osiris. Gedreven door pure wilskracht, authenticiteit en compromisloze energie laat Sugar Spine zien klaar te zijn om een blijvende indruk achter te laten in de metalwereld. Let’s raise some hell, metalheads!

🏔️ Everest Update for the Veluwe Power Hikers We were preparing for a classic VPH high altitude expedition on top of the world. Unfortunately there is some disappointing news. Starting in 2026, Nepal is introducing strict new regulations for climbing Mount Everest. Climbers will now need to have previously summited a 7,000 meter peak in Nepal and must also submit mandatory health certificates. Because we cannot realistically summit a 7,000 meter peak and then climb Everest on the same day during our hike, I am unfortunately obliged to change the program. There is also another small complication. 1 April falls on a Wednesday, which makes organizing the expedition a bit difficult. After a poll in the WhatsApp group, we decided to move the date to **28 March** and climb the highest point of the Veluwe, **Signaal Imbosch (110 m)**. Even if it’s not Everest, don’t underestimate this hike: we will cover **22 km with about 350 metres of elevation gain** at a brisk pace. At this altitude, however, oxygen bottles are no longer recommended. Please update your RSVP if you can no longer attend due to the change. ⛰️🥾 **When and Where to Meet?** 10:10 sharp at Rheden Trainstation. ⏰ Please arrive on time, as we won’t be able to wait for latecomers. 🥾✨ https://maps.app.goo.gl/VaEtswyBps5awMoL7 **Where and When Shall We Rest?** We’ll take 2 breaks: * Lunch break in nature at Signaal Imbosch (110 m) with group photo on summit; 20 min * Snack and drink at Basecamp (80 m) where you can buy drinks and snacks; 30 min **Notifications:** * Technical equipment: avalanche transceiver (beacon), avalanche probe, and avalanche shovel (if you have them) * A compact lunch and water to share at the summit * The hike will only be canceled in case of severe avalanche risk (code 5). * If you plan to bring a companion, please ensure that they are also registered for the hike. * To be the first to get updates on new hikes, join our WhatsApp group! Feel free to ask for the QR code during the hike to easily join. * T-shirts are now available for €25, made from Fairwear-certified organic cotton with eco-friendly inks—sustainable, odor-resistant, and perfect for your hiking adventures (limited stock, available during the hike)! Let me know your size and I will bring one for you!

**DDSCC Meetup 7** 📅 **Datum:** Vrijdag 27 Maart 2026 🕐 **Tijd:** 12:30 – 17:00 📍 **Locatie:** Rubicon Cloud Advisor, Leusderend 36, 3832 RC, Leusden **Wat kun je verwachten?** **Agenda** * 12:30 – Inloop met koffie en lunch * 13:30 – Opening door DDSCC * 13:45 – Introductie door Rubicon Cloud Advisor * 14:00 – Jasper Oosterveld: With Great Power Comes Great Labeling: Sensitivity Labels in de Praktijk * 14:45 – Pauze * 15:15 – *Jeroen Bijdevier:* Je omgeving op orde voor veilig en optimaal Copilot gebruik * 16:00 – Ronde tafel gesprekken * 16:30 – Borrel & netwerken (tot 17:00 uur) **Session description:** **Jasper Oosterveld - With Great Power Comes Great Labeling: Sensitivity Labels in de Praktijk** Veel organisaties hebben inmiddels sensitivity labels geïmplementeerd als basis voor data security in Microsoft 365. Maar zodra je voorbij de basis komt, ontstaan er nieuwe vragen. Hoe ontwerp je een werkbaar labelmodel? Hoe voorkom je dat gebruikers verdwalen in te veel labels? Wat betekent labeling voor Teams, SharePoint, Data Lifecycle Management en Microsoft 365 Copilot? En waarom gedraagt het platform zich soms nét anders dan je verwacht? Tijdens deze interactieve sessie deel ik mijn praktijkervaringen met sensitivity labels: keuzes die goed uitpakten, dingen die ik achteraf anders zou doen en de frustraties die je alleen tegenkomt wanneer je labels écht gaat gebruiken in productie. Dit is nadrukkelijk geen theoretische sessie. Neem je eigen ervaringen, uitdagingen en meningen mee, zodat we samen praktijklessen kunnen uitwisselen en ontdekken hoe we sensitivity labels effectiever kunnen inzetten. **Jeroen Bijdevier - Je omgeving op orde voor veilig en optimaal Copilot gebruik** Copilot ziet het verschil tussen achterhaalde en recente informatie niet. Die zal je dus een beetje moeten helpen. Rechten zijn vaak niet (in detail) op orde. Manueel deze zaken vinden is lastig en tijdrovend. Natuurlijk wil je rapportages hebben van het gebruik. Ergo dataveiligheid op orde en inzicht in het gebruik met Purview.

Een wandeling voor vaders die het zichzelf gunnen om even te willen uitwaaien én de diepte in willen. We lopen samen door de natuur, ontmoeten elkaar en delen wat er echt speelt — als vader, als man, in je werk of gewoon in je hoofd. Niets moet. Er is geen afleiding, alles draait om verbinden en inspireren. Onderweg doen we een aantal oefeningen, luisteren we naar elkaar en stellen we de vragen die er toe doen. Een ideaal moment om even tot jezelf te komen — die ontspanning neem je sowieso mee naar huis. **Past dit bij jou?** Je hoeft geen antwoorden te hebben. Alleen de bereidheid om eerlijk te zijn — naar jezelf en naar de andere vaders om je heen. **Wat kun je verwachten?** * Een kleine groep van max. 8 vaders * Een mooie route op de Veluwe * Goede gesprekken en oefeningen onderweg * Ruimte voor jouw verhaal * Koffie/thee en een snack na afloop Kortom: een wandeling waarmee je investeert in jezelf en je vaderschap. duur: 10:00-12:00 uur / investering: €20 locatie: rondom Arnhem op de Veluwe

📍 Meeting point: **Nijmegen Lent Station** (⚠️ not Nijmegen Centraal!) 🗓 **Saturday, March 28th, 2026** 🕑 **14:00** After starting our journey through Dutch history with **Prehistory**, it’s time to move forward to the **Roman era**. And when we talk about Romans in the Netherlands, there is one unavoidable place to go: **Nijmegen**, the oldest city in the country, founded by the Romans as **Noviomagus**. We’ll start from the other side of the river Waal and walk towards the historic city centre, combining **river landscapes, green parks and urban history**. Along the way we’ll explore how the Romans conquered large parts of what is now the Netherlands, built forts and military camps along the Rhine (the *limes*), and established their first real city here. This walk is about **stories, traces and layers of history**—and about seeing Nijmegen through Roman eyes. 🥾 **The walk is about 5 km** and will take us through nature, parks and the city while discovering the Roman past of Nijmegen and the Netherlands. *** 🍺 **Post-walk drinks at Cafe De Zon** After the walk we’ll stop at **Cafe De Zon** to relax and have a drink together. It’s a perfect moment to chat, share impressions from the walk and wind down. If you like beer, you’ll also have the chance to try **Oersoep**, a local craft brewery from Nijmegen known for its creative and experimental beers. Of course, other drinks are available as well. *** A walk through **Roman history**, beautiful riverside views, and a relaxed drink afterwards — a perfect **Pastime afternoon**.

In this local meeting, you will discover knowledge that you can use to get over the past. The key to improving your personal motivation, self-confidence, and happiness is to get over your painful memories. When you become free of your past, you will be free from stress, anger, anxiety and depression. Studies show that negative emotions can affect your health. By being free of negative emotions, believe it or not, you will most likely even look younger, feel more energetic, and become healthier!

This group is brought to you by the Dianetics and Scientology life improvement center.

Do you sometimes feel like you do well in life then something happens and you slide back, never quite getting ahead. At this Meetup you'll find out how to identify what actually causes the lows, the highs and everything in between. More importantly you’ll get the secret of how to gain control over your life so the highs are higher and the lows go away. Wouldn’t it be nice to stop the wild roller coaster ride for good? Or at least make it a fun roller coaster ride, with more ups and downs. There is a hidden factor that will be going over and you’re going to be quite surprised what it is and how much it affects your life.

How often are yours or another's emotions out of control? What is that about??? I have asked these questions and after much search have found answers and am sharing.

[The Board Walks](http://www.theboardwalks.com/) are for curious people who love deep conversations. If that sounds like you, **bring a thoughtful topic** and join us for a 5-mile walk (10,000+ steps!). **HOW IT WORKS** **Step 1: Bring a topic** Before you arrive, think of **one** topic you want to explore. A question. A thought that's been on your mind. An obsession you want to geek out on. This is your ticket to the event. **Step 2: Circle up & share** We gather in a circle. Your friendly walk host gives a speech to set the tone. Everyone shares: your name, what you're grateful for, and your topic. That's it. 60 seconds. **Step 3: Walk, talk & float** We walk 5 miles. You naturally drift into conversation with 2-3 people at a time, pulled by topics that spark your curiosity. When you're ready to move on, just say: "I'm going to float!" **Step 4: Feel more alive** Two hours flies by. You're back where you started — but you feel different. More alive. More energized. More connected to yourself and others. That's why regulars join 20+ times. *For more details, read our [Orientation Guide.](https://www.theboardwalks.com/orientation)* **HOW TO BRING A GREAT TOPIC** A great topic = something you're genuinely curious about. Recent topics include: * "What are you passionate about right now?" * "What makes a good friend?" * "What's a belief you used to hold that you've completely changed?" * "How do you want to be remembered?" * "What would you do if money wasn't a factor?" Think of your topic like the dish you're bringing to our conversational potluck. If everyone brings an A+ dish (i.e. energizing, uplifting, expansive), we'll all walk away feeling lighter and brighter. **WHAT TO EXPECT** This isn't a fitness event with casual chitchat. It's a walking think tank where we explore life's big questions together, beyond small talk. *If you're looking for light banter or a standard networking event, this probably isn't the right fit.* But if you crave depth, genuine connection, and conversations that make you feel alive? You'll love it here. **FAQ** * Wear casual athletic attire and sneakers. It's a long walk! * We have multiple first-timers at each event. We work hard to create a welcoming, inclusive, clique-free space. * We welcome people of **all** ages, backgrounds, and industries who align with the [intention](https://www.theboardwalks.com/ground-rules) of this space. * Rain or shine, we've been out here nearly every week since July 2022. If the event is cancelled, we'll let you know. * Dogs, babies in strollers, parents, and friends are welcome — please text/email them the event link so they can RSVP and prepare a topic! **LOGISTICS** * If you'll arrive over 10 minutes late, we suggest skipping the event. It's hard to find us once we start walking, and your host can't answer messages during the event. * This walk is designed for everyone to *move together at the same steady pace* (about 20 min/mile). This format works best when the whole group moves in unison. If you have mobility limitations, we kindly encourage you to find an event better suited to your needs. * Read our [Orientation Guide](https://www.theboardwalks.com/orientation) for full details. * If you enjoy the event, send **[this](http://www.theboardwalks.com/)** to a friend or sign up for our **[newsletter](https://theboardwalks.beehiiv.com/)**. We're in multiple cities with more on the way. 🤠👋 **IF YOU WANT TO GO DEEPER...** [The Board](https://stan.store/ellebeecher/p/the-board) is the next step: a high-trust collective for renaissance people devoted to creating, connecting, and building lives that light us up. * This is a global HQ for people who crave big talk, deep connection, and dream collaborations with people across industries. If the walks feel like a spark... The Board is the fire. Apply [here](https://stan.store/ellebeecher/p/the-board).
