Letting Go

**Rooted & Radiant** *Releasing old patterns, embodying your truth* Welcome to the first gathering of The Remembering — an intimate women's circle meeting bi-monthly in Vienna. There are seasons in a woman's life when something deep shifts. Old patterns lose their grip. The stories we have been telling ourselves begin to crack open. And in that tender space — something more radiant wants to emerge. This first circle is for exactly that moment. **Agenda:** * 19:00 — Arrival, settle in, meet each other 19:15 — Opening grounding practice: breathwork and meditation with music 19:30 — Themed sharing circle: honest facilitated conversation around releasing old patterns and stepping into your authentic truth 20:30 — Light teaching moment: one simple somatic tool to take home 20:40 — Closing ritual and integration 20:45 — Tea, conversation, and space to process 21:00 — End **What to bring:** * An open heart and willingness to be real * A journal and pen if you like to write * A blanket or shawl, if you want to feel cozy * Water bottle **Location:** Vienna — SANGITA Yoga Studio, Fleischmarkt 16/25a, 1010 Vienna Spots are limited to 12 women to keep this circle intimate. This first gathering is free. I'm Petra - a coach, healer in training, and facilitator with a background in somatic work, breathwork, energy healing, and nervous system health. I show up not as someone with all the answers, but as someone who knows the terrain and will hold this space with care.

Agenda: 18:00 Doors open 18:20 welcome - doors closing 18:30 "living immutable: working with Java Records the painless way" - Georgios Angelopoulos \~ 19:00/19:15 break/networking \~ 19:30/19:45 Zero-Dependency **Java 25+ AI Business Agents**: Running locally with zsmith and LightMetal - Adam Bien **living immutable: working with Java Records the painless way** Java Records are great for immutability, but updating deeply nested structures usually means dealing with a headache of nested constructors and endless *.withX()* chains. This talk covers how to skip the boilerplate using Telescope, a lightweight Java library designed for painless deep updates. We will dive into: * The ergonomic pain points of nested Java Records. * Using Telescope's fluent DSL for surgical, zero-boilerplate updates * Applying these same clean immutability patterns to legacy POJOs. **About Georgios Angelopoulos** I am a Lead Developer at Prewave with a background in Electrical and Computer Engineering. My experience and interests cover the entire computing spectrum, solving problems at every layer of the stack. **Zero-Dependency Java 25+ Business Agents: Running locally with zsmith and LightMetal** Modern Java provides all the functionality required for local LLM inference and agent orchestration, eliminating the need for external dependencies. LightMetal directly binds Llama.cpp from Java using the **Foreign Function and Memory API (FFM)**, eliminating the need for JNI or native wrappers. It runs open models such as **Mistral, Gemma, and Llama** on your machine. Zsmith is built on LightMetal and uses the Boundary-Control-Entity (BCE) model to structure agents. It loads tools and skills as ServiceLoader plugins and runs tool calls and streaming on Virtual Threads. Local inference and remote models work with the same agent code over the JDK's HttpClient. Topics: \- One\-line installation\, no build tools\, no package managers \- FFM in practice: calling native libraries without JNI \- Running Mistral\, Gemma and Llama locally in pure Java \- ServiceLoader as a plugin mechanism for tools and skills \- BCE applied to AI agents \- Virtual Threads for streaming\, tool calls and parallel inference \- Switching between local and remote models without changing the agent \- Plain JDK: HttpClient\, records\, sealed types and pattern matching \- Packaging agents as single\-file Java applications Everything is demonstrated live with code. Your questions are highly welcome — the more, the better! **About Adam Bien** Entwickler, Consultant, manchmal Konferenzsprecher, Autor und Java / Jakarta (SE/EE) / MicroProfile Enthusiast. Adam Bien ([adambien.blog](http://adambien.blog)) arbeitet mit Java seit JDK 1.0, JavaScript seit LiveScript und hat immer noch sehr viel Spass am Programmieren. Adam veranstaltet regelmässig Java EE / WebStandards / JavaScript Workshops am Flughafen München ([http://airhacks.com](http://airhacks.com)).

PCE - "Philosophic Conversation in English" is a discussion event in English language which focuses on psychology, philosophy, self-consciousness and self-realization. The conversation is based on inclusive discussion rules. We will meet at at a restaurant where we will sit in the outdoor area. At the beginning we will choose the two topics to discuss. Everybody can suggest a topic. Afterwards we will vote what topics to discuss. The person who suggests a winning topic will start the discussion by explaining his/her idea. Afterwards everybody gets his/her chance to make a statement. But you can also decide to remain silent and only listen, if you prefer that. We have a time limit for statements, so that everybody has enough time to speak. It is not allowed to interrupt somebody who is speaking. After a statement everybody can ask a question and the speaker will answer. After the first part there will be a 15 minutes break before we start the second part. Everybody is welcome to our event: We are interested in your thoughts and opinions! It is no problem if you arrive late and you can also leave whenever you want. Please don't bring pets to this event because the room is usually very crowded. Please make sure to register for the event to secure your seat! Please check out last event's topics via this link: [http://pce-topic.project-website.org](http://pce-topic.project-website.org/)

Welcome to our cozy **The Psychology and Personal Growth Circle** which is part of the Social Book Club! We will meet to discuss the book “**Thinking, Fast and Slow**" (499 pages) written by Daniel Kahneman. The idea is to connect with like minded readers that love to grow and get to know themselves better through reading and especially applying knowledge from books. We meet up once a month and talk about our progress applying knowledge from a certain book and our experience. The event will take place at the volunteer organisation **MUT**. It is an organisation to supports humans, animals and the environment especially in Vienna. MUT or the Social Book Club look forward to some donation to cover the cost of this event. If you would like to help, please bring some cash with you. Book Description: In the highly anticipated *Thinking, Fast and Slow*, Kahneman takes us on a groundbreaking tour of the mind and explains the two systems that drive the way we think. System 1 is fast, intuitive, and emotional; System 2 is slower, more deliberative, and more logical. Kahneman exposes the extraordinary capabilities—and also the faults and biases—of fast thinking, and reveals the pervasive influence of intuitive impressions on our thoughts and behavior. The impact of loss aversion and overconfidence on corporate strategies, the difficulties of predicting what will make us happy in the future, the challenges of properly framing risks at work and at home, the profound effect of cognitive biases on everything from playing the stock market to planning the next vacation—each of these can be understood only by knowing how the two systems work together to shape our judgments and decisions. If anyone would like to hang out **after** the book club discussion, you’re more than welcome to join us! We’ll be having a picnic and just relaxing afterward. All the best Andrea & Ani

The emotional pain from past bad experiences easily lingers in the present, making it hard to enjoy life and create your future. Even when you think you've moved on, the negative emotions can be triggered, sending you back into the pain of that experience. And we are talking about pain; emotions such as grief, depression, anxiety, fear (or terror), boiling anger, simmering resentment, feelings of shame, blaming and regret can leave you incapacitated to a greater or lesser degree. In this local event we will be discussing the reasons why these past bad experiences have the power to affect you long after they occurred. We'll go over why the emotional pain can be so strong. We'll also discuss some simple solutions to overcome your emotional pain and be free to fully enjoy your life again. Examples of painful experiences include: * A broken relationship or divorce. * Death or loss of a loved one. * Death of a pet. * A sudden shock or bad news. * A betrayal. * Being part of an abusive relationship. * A bad injustice. * Loss of a job, position or business. * A grave illness or injury. The negative emotions from these experiences don't just go away on their own. But the good news is there is a way to clear them out of your way. Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to this local event. We look forward to seeing you there. This group is sponsored the Dianetics & Scientology Self-Improvement Center.

These meetings will be a building block approach to learning photographic mastery over three disciplines: Mechanical Mastery (MM) - 13 weeks of the series Exposure Mastery (EM) - 26 weeks of the series Composition Mastery (CM) - A 52 week series All three series will run concurrently and will dovetail as follows: Q3/26 - MM (Iter 1), EM (Iter 1, Pt 1), CM (Iter 1, Pt1) Q4/26 - MM (Iter 2), EM (Iter 1, Pt 2), CM (Iter 1, Pt2) Q1/27 - MM (Iter 3), EM (Iter 2, Pt 1), CM (Iter 1, Pt3) Q2/27 - MM (Iter 4), EM (Iter 2, Pt 2), CM (Iter 1, Pt4) That's likely confusing, but essentially, MM offered 4 times in that period, EM offered 2 times, and CM offered 1 time. **TO BE CLEAR - THERE IS NO CHARGE FOR THESE CLASSES.** This is an aggressive series, with presentations, homework, group shoots to be added in, likely at LEAST twice a month, image critiques, and an expectation that you are willing to put in the work to elevate your photography significantly. Open to all levels and all equipment levels. Don't let hesitation about your skillset and/or gear keep you from a one-time opportunity. The group will meet every Monday, with periodic exceptions, and we will try to keep as close as possible to the original plan. Obviously, more data to come, and will be published as this is further developed, but now is the time to decide if you want to be a part of this.

This is an in-person meeting. Did you know that unwanted emotions like loneliness, sadness, hopelessness, anger, fear, anxiety, or feelings of irritation don’t just fall on you for no reason. They are not random occurrences that simply happen to people's minds. They are definitely not chemical imbalance in your brain due to some nebulous chemical reactions by chance. Your negative emotions are the symptoms of the painful experiences that you have which are not healed, and which are still affecting you. The effects of these painful experiences are exacerbated by the pressures or difficulties of the other problems in your life. For instance, let's say you are already carrying a huge load on your back, then you cannot take on much more, but, let's say something else happens to you, such as the difficulties from the Pandemic, then the resultant combined weight on you can take you over the edge, kind of like the straw that break the camel's back. When this happens, people's attention usually goes to the straw that was added, but actually the majority of the weight had come from the huge load that were already there, holding a person down and causing a person issues. So how do you remove the huge load that was already there? How do you lighten them up? Is it possible to get rid of them? That is what this meeting will be all about. 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.
