Bitcoin und Landwirtschaft - echte WERTschätzung?
Echte Werte entstehen nicht am Bildschirm, sondern auf dem Feld. Und doch verliert unser Geld Jahr für Jahr an Kaufkraft – weil es einfach nur gedruckt wird. Wenn du dich fragst, wie Werterhalt und Freiheit heute noch möglich sind, ist dieser Abend für dich.
Bitcoin bringt die Freiheit zurück: weg von Banken, Inflation und Kontrolle. Bitcoin macht dich zu deiner eigenen Bank, wie ein digitaler „Tresor“, in dem Wert langfristig gespeichert werden kann, ohne dass jemand ihn einfach „dazudruckt“.
Im Vortrag „Bitcoin & Landwirtschaft – echte WERTschätzung?“ zeigt Christopher Burgert praxisnah:
• Warum unser Geldsystem kaputt ist
• Was Bitcoin wirklich ist - und weshalb es Wert schützen kann
• Wie Bitcoin und Landwirtschaft perfekt zusammenpassen
• Wie man Bitcoin im Laden oder Hofladen akzeptiert - und welche Vorteile das für Landwirte und Kunden bringt
Christopher Burgert ist Freiheits- und Bitcoin-Enthusiast. Schon mit 16 Jahren erkannte er die Dysfunktion unseres Geldsystems und beschäftigt sich seitdem mit Werterhalt und dezentralen Strukturen. Auf dem Land aufgewachsen ist es ihm ein Herzensanliegen die dezentralen Strukturen vor Ort zu unterstützen und über Freiheit und echten Wert aufzuklären.

Swimming in the Limmat
Hello dear Challengers,
if you wish to join the Limmat swim and strengthen your body, join me to that swim. I will give you a short introduction on the "why" you should do it and then you will tell me if you want to do it. I am a trained lifeguard (SLRG), I did also the Hypothermia Module and I am swimming in the cold since 2015.
Take with you all the necessary to swim, flip/flop, safe buoy (something like the orange donut here below, if you have it) and a Thermos.

Handstand Training (Open Level)
Sundays, 2pm-3pm.
Trial class: CHF 20
Drop-in: CHF 35
Book here: www.balancewithale.com/zurich/handstand
"I'll never be able to handstand".
You kick at the wall but see no progress.
Your wrists hurt.
You don't know how to improve...
It doesn't have to be this way.
Progress doesn't come from trying harder — it comes from practicing smarter. Handstands are a skill, and when you train them as such, they begin to click in a way that feels almost magical.
This class builds the foundations (strength, alignment and technique) that make handstands feel achievable and fun. Through clear progressions and personalized drills, you'll discover how capable your body truly is, and how handstands start to feel within reach when you train with intention and support.
Because drills are tailored to you, the class welcomes all levels — from "I've never kicked up before" to confident freestanding balancers who want to develop greater control.

Mäng - transformational game
Join us for a live (private) session of **Mäng (offline in Zürich or online worldwide)**, a powerful self-exploration game that helps uncover hidden mental scripts and rewire the way you think, feel and act.
Mäng is a modernized version of an ancient contemplative practice — reimagined as a transformational tool based on psychological insight, symbolic logic, and inner strategy. It is not therapy or coaching in the traditional sense. Instead, it’s an immersive deep-dive into the unconscious mind through metaphor and archetype with a game spirit.
💡 **How it works:**
Mäng is built on four stages of real, lasting change:
1. **Discovery** – Identify limiting beliefs and internal programs
2. **Uninstallation** – Let go of outdated patterns
3. **Design** – Create new mental strategies
4. **Integration** – Embed them into your deeper awareness
You’ll be guided through this process by the **Master of Mäng**, who offers structure, questions, and insight — while you remain the one making all decisions and discoveries.
🌿 **Who is this for?**
* People feeling stuck or unsure of their next steps
* Those tired of repeating the same emotional patterns and looking for inspiration and clarity
* Anyone curious about deeper transformation without spending years on it
🧭 No prior experience needed — just bring your question or theme.
🕒 **Important:**
This is a deep game. A full session lasts **4 hours**. Time slots are defined individually. Contact me directly to get an appointment.
Price for newbies: 250 CHF

Driving Success with Agentic AI for Software Development Discussion
Join us for an engaging panel discussion on **AI Agentic Coding** and how autonomous AI systems are transforming the way software is built.

The discussion will cover topics such as AI-assisted development, productivity gains, challenges around reliability and governance, and what the future of software engineering may look like with AI agents as collaborators. Whether you’re a developer, tech leader, or AI enthusiast, this session is a great opportunity to learn, ask questions, and explore how agentic AI is redefining coding
What If Your AI Could Be a Team? - Chad Green
**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**
GitHub Copilot is powerful, but what if you could scale from a solo AI assistant to an entire team of specialized agents working in parallel? This session introduces Squad: an open-source framework for multi-agent orchestration that lets you define teams of AI agents with specific roles, responsibilities, and expertise.
We'll progress from Copilot basics to the Copilot CLI, explore how Agents add autonomy, and see how Instructions and Skills let you customize agent behavior. Then, the climax: a live demo where a Squad team of 3 agents (Lead, Developer, Tester) stands up and builds a working application in real-time, showcasing true multi-agent collaboration.
Whether you're new to AI or exploring how to scale your use of Copilot, this session will show you what's possible when agents work as a team.

Bring a question.
Bring a lesson learned.
Or just come hang out and meet other developers.
All skill levels welcome!
Prompt vs. Paintbrush
AI is changing how art is made. But when does it stop being your work and start being the machine’s?
This month we're going to be doing a panel with with digital image, music, and written word artists, talking about at what point, while using AI in the creation process, does the work become not the artist creation?
We encourage audience participation during this event that will be moderated by Chris Slee.
Whether you’re deep in the field or just getting curious, come connect with others building and exploring AI in Columbus.
