**Tips and practical aspects to become a 100× developer with Dark Factory and Compound Engineering** A one-hour session on the Pier07 terrace — practical tips on Dark Factory and Compound Engineering, the evening before the full workshop. **What this session is** We are planning a focused, hands-on Schwartz edition for a small group. Before we lock the format, we need to know who is interested — please spread the word within your team and tell us if you would like to join. Practical tips on becoming a 100× developer with agentic workflows Dark Factory and Compound Engineering — what works in real teams Dark Factory & Compound Engineering Two ideas behind this session — in plain terms. **Dark Factory** Agents run the software lifecycle behind deterministic gates — specs, builds, tests, and review loops — while you steer intent, rules, and verification instead of every line of code. **Compound Engineering** Each cycle makes the next one easier: you capture learnings in instruction files, evaluators, and gates so the system gets measurably smarter — not more chaotic — every time agents run. **more details at:** [https://easyspecs.ai/labs/dark-factory-terrace-session-barcelona ](https://easyspecs.ai/labs/dark-factory-terrace-session-barcelona )

Hola y bienvenidos a nuestro próximo meetup de filosofía de Sócrates Café! ¿Deseas una comprensión más profunda de ti mismo y del mundo? ¿Valoras el diálogo profundo, honesto y respetuoso? Si es así, entonces este encuentro será muy interesante para ti. 1. ¿DONDE NOS ENCONTRAMOS? Cafè de l'Òpera La Rambla, 74 near metro Liceu. https://goo.gl/maps/rgmRhs4WMD3ciASk7 Suban al cuarto arriba, hay que pedir y pagar en la barra antes de subir. 2. ¿CUANDO NOS ENCONTRAMOS? los martes de 19:30 a 21:00 (las otras sessions están en ingles). 3. ¿CUÁNTOS NOS REUNIMOS? Hasta 25 personas. Las reuniones comenzarán a las 7.30 pm. Por favor, lleguen a tiempo. Empezaremos puntualmente. 4. ¿QUE PASA EN LAS REUNIONES? En cada reunión tenemos una discusión usando el método socrático: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socratic_method Hacemos, respondemos y discutimos preguntas e ideas para estimular el pensamiento crítico y ampliar nuestras perspectivas con algunos conceptos y pensamientos en los que nunca hemos pensado. El objetivo principal de estos encuentros es enriquecernos con las perspectivas de los demás, no convencer a los demás sobre nuestras propias perspectivas. Nuestras reuniones son sobre nuestras propias filosofías de la vida y no necesariamente lo que los grandes filósofos y académicos han dicho o escrito. No es un club de debate o una plataforma para hacer proselitismo. En cambio, ponemos énfasis en cuestionar, tener una mentalidad abierta y desafiar nuestras propias suposiciones mientras escuchamos y respetamos las opiniones compartidas por otros. Una reunión de Socrates Café se considera un éxito cuando los participantes dejan una discusión con muchas más preguntas de las que tenían al principio. 5. ¿QUÉ TEMA SE DISCUTE EN EL MEETUP? Los participantes sugieren temas al principio de cada reunión. Luego votamos y elegimos el tema más popular de ese evento para la discusión. No es necesaria la formación académica en filosofía; Solo entusiasmo por intercambiar ideas y puntos de vista. Algunos ejemplos de temas elegidos en reuniones anteriores: * ¿Por qué ideales vale la pena morir? * ¿Por qué nunca estamos satisfechos? * ¿Por qué los seres humanos están informados de que la sociedad está yendo mal y los líderes están bien informados y las cosas continúan? * ¿Es necesaria la identidad? * ¿Qué es el precio ético y la codicia? * ¿Qué es post-verdad? * ¿Cómo puede ser que las personas en las sociedades democráticas estén tan obsesionadas con el poder? (Deseo de ser diferente, mejor, más fuerte que los demás). * ¿Qué es la amistad? 6. ¿QUIÉN PUEDE PARTICIPAR EN ESTE MEETUP? Cualquiera es más que bienvenido a unirse a nuestros encuentros. Nuestros eventos reúnen a personas de diferentes orígenes, diferentes culturas, mientras que no es obligatorio tener antecedentes filosóficos. Nuestros participantes habituales son personas que tienen deseo de una comprensión más profunda de sí mismos y del mundo. Personas que valoran el diálogo profundo, honesto y respetuoso.

Whether you’ve just moved to the city, are looking to make new friends, or simply want to start dancing, this class is designed to be easy, social, and pressure-free. *No previous dance experience needed.* ***It is mandatory to fill out your information about roles (leader/follower), so that we know the numbers of participants for each role.*** **What you will learn** * What makes salsa special and how to dance to the music * Basic salsa steps * How leading and following works * Cross body lead and basic turns The focus is on learning the fundamentals while enjoying the social side of dancing. **Who this class is for** * Absolute beginners * People new in town * Anyone curious about salsa * Anyone looking to meet people through dance You can come **alone or with a partner**. We rotate partners when exercises allow it, so everyone gets a chance to practice and connect. ***FAQ*** ***Important note about class balance*** This salsa class is free, which means we cannot control or guarantee the balance between leaders and followers in advance. We also cannot predict exactly who will show up on the day. For that reason, **admission to the class will be** **based on arrival time**. *Once the class reaches maximum capacity, with a balanced number of participants, we may not be able to let more people join.* We understand this can sometimes be frustrating, but this is the fairest way for us to keep the class balanced, organized, and enjoyable for everyone. Please arrive on time to secure your spot. **I am in the waiting list. Should I still come to the class?** We try to keep the classes as balanced as possible, so if we notice we are getting too many leaders/followers we move people around to waitlist. Sadly not everyone who signed up attends the class, so you can always still show up and see if there is a shortage of leaders/followers. **Want to increase your odds to get a spot for the class?** Then we highly suggest to come with a partner (leader+follower), as we always give them priority. **Why am I in the waiting list I was earlier/first?** There is two reasons, either you have attended the class before or, more likely, you didn't show up to a class you signed up for before. Our classes are free, we do this as volunteers and because we love to introduce people to dancing. ***When you take a spot and don't cancel your attendance in a timely manner or at all it means you took a spot that someone else would have gladly taken, so we kindly ask you to change your RSVP accordingly.***

Cuando me mudé a Barcelona, trabajaba muchas horas y aun así no encontraba con quién practicar español de verdad. Probé cursos. Probé Duolingo y Babbel. Todos me daban la misma sensación: ejercicios sin gracia sobre temas que no me interesaban, completamente desconectados de mi vida real. Así que me inventé mi propio método. Y funcionó. Aprendí español en 4 meses, y ahora estoy acelerando con el francés, no en un aula, sino integrando el idioma en mi día a día. Justo eso es lo que voy a compartir en esta sesión gratuita de una hora. **Lo que te llevarás:** * Por qué los métodos tradicionales te dejan estancado en el nivel intermedio * Lo único que de verdad marca la diferencia (y no es más clases particulares) * Prácticas diarias que puedes empezar mañana, pensadas para tu vida, no para un libro de texto **¿Para quién es esto?** * Llevas tiempo aprendiendo un idioma pero te has quedado atascado entre el A2 y el B2 * Quieres usar el idioma de verdad, no pasarte años persiguiendo la perfección * Estás abierto a replantearte cómo aprendes **Logística:** Nos vemos en SandwiChez para tomar un café todos juntos y hablar de nuestra experiencia con los idiomas.

When I moved to Barcelona, I worked long hours and somehow still couldn't find people to actually practice Spanish with. ​I tried courses. I tried Duolingo and Babbel. They all felt the same: awkward exercises about topics I didn't care about, completely disconnected from my real life. ​So I figured out my own method. It worked. I learned Spanish in 4 months, and I'm now accelerating my French, not in a classroom but by integrating the language into my daily life. ​That's exactly what I'm sharing in this free 1-hour session. ​**What you'll walk away with:** * ​Why traditional methods get you stuck at the intermediate level * ​The one thing that actually moves the needle (it's not more tutoring) * ​Daily practices you can start tomorrow - built around your life, not a textbook ​**Who's this for:** * ​You've been learning a language but got stuck somewhere between A2 and B2 * ​You want to actually use the language, not spend years chasing perfection * ​You're open to rethinking how you learn ​**Logistics:** We'll meet at Sandwichez to have a Coffee all together and talk about our language experience.

The European Union is best understood not as an economic project that acquired political ambitions, but as a peace project that chose economics as its instrument. In 1945 Europe lay in ruins, and the people who built it had a clear diagnosis: the recurring catastrophe was nationalism — the conviction that nation-states are entitled to pursue their interests against each other by force. Their cure was integration. If you bind countries' economies together tightly enough, war between them becomes not just undesirable but materially impossible. From a modest start binding together the raw materials of war, the logic extended to more and more areas over the following decades: a common market, then a single market, then a shared currency, and eastward expansion after the Cold War. This session will be led by Luca. Bring wine/beer/drinks/food/snacks/whatever to share. **Our events fill up very quickly.

Most people still use AI like a search box: type one question, get one answer, repeat. But the next step is AI agents: systems that can take a goal, break it into steps, use tools, remember context, and produce useful work for a human to review. In this beginner-friendly session, we’ll demystify what AI agents actually are — without hype or jargon. We’ll walk through practical examples of how agents can help with research, planning, writing, coding, operations, and personal productivity. We’ll cover: * What makes an AI “agent” instead of just a chatbot * How agents break tasks into steps * Where agents are genuinely useful today * Where they fail, hallucinate, or need human review * How to design simple AI workflows for your own work * A live demo of an AI agent-style workflow from start to finish No coding experience required. This is for anyone who wants to understand where AI tools are going and how to use them more effectively right now. LOGISTICS AND PARKING: The talk starts at 7:00 PM. The first half hour is reserved for everyone to get set up and mingle. Free pizza and drinks! The cheapest parking option is to find street parking, which will only cost you a few bucks. Otherwise, park in the nearby veteran's museum lot for $8. It's highly recommended you avoid the nearby $15 garage parking.

Extensions allow developers to customize the editor with new features, integrations, and workflow improvements tailored to their needs. In this session, we’ll cover what extensions are and the different types available, including full extensions written in TypeScript or JavaScript, along with lighter-weight extensions such as color themes, language packs, language support, code snippets, and keymaps. We’ll also look at practical reasons a developer might create an extension, from automating repetitive tasks to adding custom tooling. The session includes a hands-on walkthrough of creating a new extension, testing it locally, and understanding the basic project structure. We’ll close with a brief overview of how extensions are packaged and published to the Visual Studio Marketplace and other distribution options. **YouTube Link** TBD
