Lightning talk : "Post library" ? Generic multimedia programming with Avendish
Lightning talk : "Post library" ? Generic multimedia programming with Avendish
Hello Everyone, For this meetup, I'll present a lightning talk that touches on early reflection in 2020, and where we are now. I am a doctoral candidate at Maynooth university where I work on the ossia.io software. I have been involved with this software for a number of years, and this talk will present its plugin system called Avendish. We sometimes call it a “post library” because it is not really a library.... It has implication well beyond ossia.io, and introduced an approach in 2020 that resembles a number of recent projects leavening c++26 reflections. As always, the good folks at Anseo are graciously letting us use their room! You can get a drink downstairs and bring it up to the room. Avendish git repository : https://github.com/celtera/avendish Avendish Documentation : https://celtera.github.io/avendish Our matrix chat is : https://matrix.to/#/#cppdug:gitter.im And videos of past talks can be found on this peertube instance: https://indymotion.fr/c/cppdug/videos See you then !

Power Platform for Good! & Designing Self-Healing Pipelines
Power Platform for Good! & Designing Self-Healing Pipelines
**Venue Update** We’re excited to let you know that this event will be taking place at a new venue. **Description** This event will feature two fantastic talks, covering both real-world impact with Microsoft Power Platform and modern approaches to building resilient software systems. **Talk 1: Power Platform for Good - Making a Real Impact** Delivered by Melissa Hale This talk gives attendees insight into how someone with a scientific, non-technical background transitioned into a developer role within a consulting company, while also contributing to a charity – *“Collaboration for Kids”*. **What:** Learn how Power Platform was used to transform a charity’s digital space in a meaningful way. You’ll see how an intranet and process automations were created to support healthier choices for children and adults — all powered by Microsoft Business Applications and Modern Workplace technologies. **Why:** Non-profit organisations are under increasing pressure to optimise operations and focus their time on supporting their cause. Technology can play a huge role in reducing manual workloads and improving communication. This session will show how you can use your existing skills to make a real difference. **How:** Expect engaging storytelling, live demos, practical use cases of Power Automate and SharePoint, and tips for working with diverse stakeholders. **Takeaways:** * Real-world examples of Power Platform in non-profits * Strategies for collaboration and user adoption * Inspiration to use your tech skills for social good **Talk 2: Building Self-Healing Pipelines** Delivered by Faith Sodipe This session introduces the core ideas behind systems that can detect problems and recover automatically — without constant human intervention. **What:** Explore how modern systems evolve from traditional monitoring into intelligent pipelines that can observe behaviour, detect issues, and trigger safe recovery actions. **Why:** As systems grow more complex, resilience becomes critical. Designing for failure and recovery is essential for building trustworthy software. **How:** Through simple examples and real-world analogies, you’ll learn how observability, automation, and intelligent decision-making come together to create self-healing systems. **Takeaways:** * What “self-healing” means in modern software * Why designing for failure is essential * Core components of a self-healing pipeline * How to gradually introduce resilience into your systems **Food** We have a selection of food available including Vegan options but if you'd like to know more please drop one of our organisers a message before the event via the group message forum.

How Does Protest Create Change?
How Does Protest Create Change?
What's the purpose of protest? What does it achieve? Is a cause-inspired protest too easily hijacked by important - but ultimately unrelated - right-wing or left-wing causes? What motivates people to protest? Are there ways to advocate for change apart from speechifying, flag-waving and public disruption? Consider these and other important questions this coming Tuesday; buy a drink at the bar @ Walters and add your voice to the civil discourse that is Socrates Café.

Maha Ji Meditation Somatic Vibration - Inter Faith Centre DCU
Maha Ji Meditation Somatic Vibration - Inter Faith Centre DCU
Spiritual Somatic training is a power tool that supports you in resolving the many different traumas that we carry inside and also all around us. It gives us the opportunity to realize our true potential to overcome anything, by tapping into secret vibration and frequencies that are transformational. It is a therapeutic approach that focuses on the connection between the mind and body. It emphasizes the importance of bodily sensations and experiences in the healing process. It's an energetic meditation, followed by our silent guided meditation. Regulating the Nervous System: Trauma often leads to dysregulation of the nervous system, resulting in feelings of anxiety or hyperarousal. The rhythmic movement of somatic vibration can help calm the nervous system, promoting a sense of safety and relaxation. We also combine Somatic Energy training with sitting healing and guided silent meditation. The intention is finding inner peace that supports the mind, body and spirit and gives a sense of connection to God, nature and Self. Somatic Healing unlocks the secrets of the Self, as we let go of what we don’t need, and encourage the overall Self to realize its full potential. **Who should attend:** * Anyone experiencing stress, anxiety, or burnout * Professionals seeking better work-life balance * Individuals interested in mindfulness and self-care * Anyone looking to improve their mental or emotional wellbeing * This event is suitable for both beginners seeking an introduction to somatic meditation and seasoned practitioners looking to deepen awareness **What to expect:** * Expert advice on meditation and mindfulness techniques * Movement "Somatic" meditation, accompanied by Somatic techniques * 11-minute silent guided meditation * Practical stress-reduction strategies * Tools for emotional regulation and mental clarity * Supportive community and open discussion **Event Details:** * 🕉️ *Divine Representation and Teacher:* SHREE MAHARANI JI * 👤 *Facilitators:* MICHAEL BERNARD COX & DR FRANCIS VALLOOR * 📍 *Location:* Inter Faith Centre, DCU Glasnevin Campus, Collins Ave Ext, Glasnevin, Dublin 9, D09 WPA0. -> Map/Directions: [https://maps.app.goo.gl/ab797JPgrn6zQaK86](https://maps.app.goo.gl/ab797JPgrn6zQaK86) * 📅 *Date & Time:* Tuesday 28th April 2026 - 7:30pm * 🎟️ *Non-ticketed event:* Recommended donation: €10 **Why attend:** * Leave feeling lighter, more grounded, and connected, with practical tools you can use anytime to manage stress, release anxiety, and bring more peace into your daily life. **Contact/Connect:** * ✆ Contact: via private message or comments section through the Maha Ji Yoga Meditation Meetup page * Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mahajiyogameditation/ * Join our spiritual community on Telegram: [https://t.me/+3gi2S-OgptRjOWM8](https://t.me/+3gi2S-OgptRjOWM8)

Tutorial 10 – NLP - Named-Entity-Recognition with Hugging Face & PyTorch
Tutorial 10 – NLP - Named-Entity-Recognition with Hugging Face & PyTorch
My name is Aurelie and I'm graduating with an MSc in Artificial Intelligence from the University of Limerick. I run monthly **machine learning** and **deep learning** tutorials in Dublin with a small group of people. In this tutorial, we will fine‑tune a **Named Entity Recognition (NER)** model using a **Hugging Face** pretrained model and **PyTorch**, following the structure of a **Hugging Face** tutorial. We will use an **NER** dataset from **Hugging Face**, walk through data preprocessing—including **tokenization**—fine‑tune the model, evaluate its performance, and finally run inference on a new, unseen text sample that was not part of the training set. You will receive a Jupyter notebook with clean, reusable code covering every step. No setup required beyond a laptop and a Google account to run everything in Google Colab. **The tutorials are limited to 15 participants and you can reserve your spot either here or by emailing aureliem219@gmail.com. Please make sure to book as soon as possible, as the registration count on Meetup does not guarantee availability.** This tutorial take place at the **Grafton Hotel, 32 Stephen Street Lower, Dublin 2** (We will be sitting in the lobby in the corner or on the right handside). It will run from **3 pm** to **4 pm**. **Grafton Hotel, 32 Stephen Street Lower, Dublin 2** * The tutorials are a high-level practical introduction to machine learning and deep learning and the emphasis on understanding how we process the data , train and evaluate a model with Python. We won't cover the mathematics behind it however some tutorials may have mathematical formulas as part of the algorithm explanation and some tutorials might have more complex data preprocessing as it depends on the datasets and the task we are doing. However the tutorials focus on the practical part! * *Payments need to be made in advance to secure your place and fees are non-refundable unless I need to cancel the event, in this case refunds will be made.*

AI at Irish SMEs: Insights from The Irish Times, Buymedia & Coolplanet
AI at Irish SMEs: Insights from The Irish Times, Buymedia & Coolplanet
Curious about what Irish SMEs are actually doing with AI? We’re getting together with the folks from The Irish Times, Buymedia, and Coolplanet to look under the hood of their data stacks. They'll be sharing exactly how they use Snowflake AI to clean up messy documents, speed up data engineering, and turn weeks of work into hours. Drop by for some honest talk about what works in the real world, plus food, drinks, and a chance to catch up with the local Snowflake community. **Right Story, Right Reader: Building a Hybrid News Recommendation Engine in Snowflake, Juliana Murphy, The Irish Times** At The Irish Times Group — home to The Irish Times, Irish Examiner, Breaking News, The Echo, and more — we publish hundreds of articles every week. The challenge isn’t the quality of the journalism, but helping readers find the stories most relevant to them, as discovery becomes increasingly fragmented across search, social, and other channels. In this session, Juliana Murphy walks through how The Irish Times built For Me — a pilot personalised content feed delivered three times daily to subscribers — using a fully native Snowflake architecture, with no external ML infrastructure or data movement outside the warehouse. The session covers the full pipeline: converting article text into 1,024-dimensional vector embeddings with Snowflake Cortex, building subscriber preference profiles from behavioural data, and using native vector similarity scoring and task orchestration to generate recommendations end-to-end within the warehouse, with output delivered to subscribers via an S3 stage. Beyond the technical build, we’ll explore the constraints unique to news. Unlike entertainment platforms, journalism must balance personal relevance with information diversity. We’ll show how editorial curation, controlled ranking logic, and user choice are embedded directly into the system design — and how those decisions shape both architecture and outcomes. Key takeaways: • Why editorial and ethical constraints belong in your data architecture, not just your product spec • Building a production-grade recommendation pipeline natively in Snowflake (Tasks, Cortex embeddings, cosine similarity scoring, Python UDFs) • What “hybrid” means in practice: combining ML signals with editorial control • Why domain knowledge matters as much as model performance **Accelerating Data Engineering with Snowflake Cortex Code, Jenny Zhou, Snowflake** This demo showcases Cortex Code, Snowflake’s AI-powered coding agent designed to automate and optimize the end-to-end data development lifecycle. We will demonstrate how Cortex Code moves beyond simple code completion by leveraging platform awareness—integrating your database schema, security context, and execution logs directly into the development workflow. **Extracting Structure from Chaos: Parsing Documents from 400+ Media Sources with Cortex AI at Buymedia, Estella Roberts, Buymedia** At Buymedia, ingesting data from over 400 unique media sources is anything but clean. Every source brings its own document formats, layout quirks, and edge cases that completely break traditional extraction tools. In this session, Estella Roberts shares how Buymedia transformed a manual, error-prone bottleneck into an automated, native pipeline using Snowflake Cortex AI and CORTEX.COMPLETE. We'll dive deep into the architecture, explore the messiest edge cases, and share practical solutions for when unstructured documents refuse to cooperate. Expect less theory, more real-world trade-offs, and actionable lessons on building resilient, modern AI pipelines. **From Sprints to Hours: Building an AI-Powered Data Stack at Coolplanet, Niall Magee, Coolplanet** At Coolplanet, we handle massive volumes of customer data effortlessly. But our internal business data? That started with Google Sheets, a basic BI tool, and a quiet confidence that it would scale. It didn't. In this session, we’ll share our honest journey from a fragile spreadsheet setup to a production-grade modern data stack using Fivetran, dbt, and Snowflake. More importantly, we'll reveal how AI became our ultimate force multiplier, turning sprint-long tasks into hours-long workflows. The highlight of the session is a deep dive into our AI-driven build process. We’ll show you how to take a plain-language brief and immediately generate dbt models, semantic layers, and functional Streamlit dashboards. Key Takeaways: * The AI Workflow: Practical steps to accelerate dbt, YAML, and SQL generation. * The Stack Evolution: Honest lessons from migrating to Fivetran, dbt, and Snowflake. * Beyond Traditional BI: Why we are shifting toward AI-scaffolded Streamlit apps. * Snowflake Cortex: How to ground natural language queries in a governed semantic model. **Location** Clayton Hotel Charlemont **Agenda** 6:00 pm – Food & Networking 6:30 pm – Welcome 6:35 pm – Right Story, Right Reader: Building a Hybrid News Recommendation Engine in Snowflake * [Juliana Murphy](https://www.linkedin.com/in/subiuliana/), The Irish Times 7:05 pm – Accelerating Data Engineering with Snowflake Cortex Code * [Jenny Zhou](https://www.linkedin.com/in/yingying-jenny-zhoudong/), Snowflake 7:25 pm – Break 7:35 pm – Extracting Structure from Chaos: Parsing Documents from 400+ Media Sources with Cortex AI at Buymedia * [Estella Roberts](https://www.linkedin.com/in/estellaroberts/), Buymedia 8:05 pm – From Sprints to Hours: Building an AI-Powered Data Stack at Coolplanet * [Niall Magee](https://www.linkedin.com/in/niall-magee/), Coolplanet 8:35 pm onwards – Drinks & Networking

Zero to Agent: Dublin | Give(a)Go
Zero to Agent: Dublin | Give(a)Go
Give(a)Go is hosting a beginner-friendly agent builder day in Dublin on **May 2nd**, as part of a global week of building around AI agents. **NOTE: To confirm your spot register on [www.giveago.co/register/zero-to-agent](https://giveago.co/register/zero-to-agent)** Agents are the new apps. They don't just respond, they reason, plan, and act. They browse the web, call APIs, write code, send messages, and loop until the job is done. And right now, the tooling to build them has caught up with the ambition. This is a beginner-friendly event. ​This is a day to go from zero to a working agent. Something that actually does something. Not a demo, not a prototype sitting in a notebook -- a deployed, live, usable thing with a URL you can share. ## ​Build tracks ​You can choose one of the tracks below, or mix tools if your idea needs it. ## ​Track 1: Vibe coding agents with Vercel ​Use Vercel’s tools to go quickly from idea to deployed agent. ​This track is for people who want to build fast, prototype with natural language, create interfaces, connect tools, and ship something live by the end of the day. ​**v0 + MCPs** Go from prompt to interface, then connect your app to real tools and data. ​**Workflow Development Kit** Build durable agent workflows that can run async tasks, recover from failures, and continue across deploys. ​**ChatSDK Agents** Create agents that live inside chat-based workflows like Slack, Discord, GitHub, or your own product. **NOTE: To confirm your spot register on [www.giveago.co/register/zero-to-agent](https://giveago.co/register/zero-to-agent)** # ​Track 2: Production-ready agents with Lua ​Use Lua to build agents that connect to real tools, APIs, and business workflows. ​This track is for builders who want to write actual agent logic in TypeScript, define custom tools, connect external services, test locally, and deploy without managing infrastructure. ​Lua is especially useful for agents that need to work across real channels like web, mobile, Slack, email, WhatsApp, Instagram, or Facebook Messenger, while handling hosting, scaling, orchestration, context, retries, and monitoring behind the scenes. ​Good for builders who want to create agents that feel closer to real products: customer support agents, lead qualification agents, internal operations agents, e-commerce assistants, research agents, workflow automations, and API-connected assistants. **What to Expect on the Day** * ​A full day of focused building with other motivated builders * ​Short kickoff to set direction and expectations * ​Focused on hands-on learning, learning by doing * ​Build solo or collaborate with someone new * ​End-of-day demos where people shares what they shipped *** ## ​Schedule ​🕙 **11:00 AM** — Doors open 💡 **11:15 AM** — Welcome + kickoff 🎨 **12:00 PM** — Inspiration & scoping 🍕 **1:00 PM** — Lunch 🖥️ **4 :30 PM** — Live demos & shipped agents showcase **NOTE: To confirm your spot register on [www.giveago.co/register/zero-to-agent](https://giveago.co/register/zero-to-agent)** ## ​Global prizes ​Builders who submit through the global build week will also be eligible for the global competition, with **$6,000+ in prizes**. ​Top submissions can win up to **$3,000 in credits plus Vercel Pro**.

Hybrid MI Python: Switching from Sphinx to Markdown
Hybrid MI Python: Switching from Sphinx to Markdown
**Talk Description** For most of Python's history, the predominant option for documentation has been Sphinx and reStructuredText. However, a majority of other ecosystems have adopted Markdown. There are historical reasons for reStructuredText being a better choice, however, Markdown is now up to the task. In this talk, you'll learn why Markdown is a better option for your project's documentation. You'll be introduced to MkDocs, a static site generator built around Markdown content, and a series of associated plugins and extensions that you need to bring Sphinx-like capabilities to Markdown documentation. You'll hear a case study of migrating multiple large, existing Sphinx-based documentation bases to Markdown, including the tools used for automating the process. You'll learn how you can engage the community to assist with the effort. Finally, you'll learn why it's worth the effort to make a change of this magnitude. **Agenda:** 7:00pm - Opening announcements 7:10pm - Switching from Sphinx to Markdown 7:50pm - Q&A
