Join Soft Stretches for a peaceful evening filled inside an independent bookstore 🤓 Soft Stretches is a grounding movement format – a calm session to listen to the body, stretch, breathe, and do a short meditation. We finish with a cup of nice drink and relaxed hangout. This week is also part of [NGO Peaasjad' mental health vitamin course](https://peaasi.ee/en/mental-health-vitamins/) . *The session fee is 3€* 👉 Reserve your spot here: [paus.studio/book](paus.studio/book)

**Date:** 12 March 2026 **Time:** 5:00 PM – 8:00 PM CET **Location:** [Bolt HQ](https://maps.app.goo.gl/L1wd9xND6SeM4Y1u6) Join Bolt and TiDB for an exclusive in-person meetup where we pull back the curtain on scaling massive production workloads. Discover how Bolt leverages TiDB’s distributed power to navigate hyper-growth, and get a first look at how TiDB X is redefining the category with AI-native capabilities. We’ll dive deep into real-world use cases, debate cloud architecture, and show you why the future of the database isn’t just “distributed” — it’s highly intelligent, scalable, and unified. ## What’s on the agenda? * **The AI-Native Frontier:** Get an exclusive look at TiDB X, an AI-native database platform designed to unify OLTP, OLAP, and vector data, auto-tune performance, and simplify the development of LLM-powered applications. * **The Bolt Blueprint:** Find out how Bolt utilizes TiDB in production to sustain high-velocity workloads that maintain “five-nines” of reliability. ## Is this meetup for you? If you’re building, managing, or breaking systems at scale, you belong here: * **The Builders**: Backend, platform, and infrastructure engineers looking for a next-gen data stack. * **The Architects:** Database engineers and SREs tired of manual sharding and “re-sharding” nightmares. * **The Visionaries:** Technical leaders and AI engineers ready to integrate LLMs with enterprise-grade data. * **The Optimizers:** Anyone who believes “runaway costs” shouldn’t be the price of innovation. If you’re looking to level up your infrastructure or just curious about how AI is fundamentally changing database internals, come grab a seat and join the conversation.

🙋🏻‍♂️ **Recommended:** check the group description first - it explains our approach and what we focus on You can check out the main online events [here](https://www.meetup.com/online-astrology/?eventOrigin=your_groups) ⬅️ We work **live with natal charts** and explore astrology as a **practical, living system** \- not fortune\-telling or “5\-minute answers” to "*where is my money, partner or purpose"*. This is a focused chart reading where we look at **how a person is actually structured**, where their energy flows easily - and where tension, imbalance or unused potential lives. **What we do** • balance of elements (fire, earth, air, water) - what’s dominant and what’s lacking • strong planets and key aspects - core traits, intensity, recurring patterns • active houses - life areas your energy mostly spins around • leading life scenarios - social, creative, informational, standalone, etc. Using this foundation, we explore: * how aligned a person already is with their chart * where inner conflicts and shadows are located * how to translate chart insight into **real-life action**, so the chart starts unfolding on a higher octave. **How this differs from "interpretative astrology"** We don’t read *planets in signs, one by one* to draw a set of disconnected descriptions. That approach often creates more confusion the deeper you go. Here, the chart is treated as **one coherent organism** \- with structure\, hierarchy and internal logic\. **The format** • meet and greet • live chart reading & discussion • friendly, respectful atmosphere • open both to beginners and astrologers - questions and observations are welcome **How to prepare** Please send your **date, time and place of birth** in advance so I can prepare the chart. Come with real-life questions, for example: • What helps me restore energy? • Where do I lose focus or motivation? • What environments support me best? Come curious - leave with insight. 🏠Place: Reval Cafe Müürivahe.

Projects that are over budget, delayed, or that fail to scale past the POC phase are very common. In many of these scenarios, choosing the right approach can be as critical as the solution itself. Should you build a tailored machine learning model, leverage the power of large language models (LLMs), or integrate with AI copilots? Each option has unique strengths, trade-offs, and resource requirements, and the key to success lies in aligning your choice with your business goals and technical constraints. In this talk, we will go beyond the basic concepts and definitions to provide a practical guide that allows attendees to navigate these decisions through real-world case studies. We will examine scenarios in which different AI paradigms were chosen, discuss the factors that influenced those decisions, and outline the process for evaluating needs, constraints, and outcomes. From assessing data availability and team expertise to balancing cost and scalability, you'll gain insights into the critical considerations that guide the selection process. By the end of this session, you’ll have a clear process for determining whether machine learning, LLMs, or copilots are best suited to your AI challenges and understand the resources and strategies needed to bring your chosen solution to life. This talk is ideal for decision-makers, technical leads, and innovators seeking to demystify AI implementation and maximize the impact of their investments.
