Checkst du? Comedy – Freches Stand-up Open Mic @TheComedyPub
**Freches deutsches Comedy Open Mic in Wien! Junge Comedians + erfahrene Pros, gratis Eintritt & Drinks – jeden Mittwoch im Comedy Pub.**
## [HOL DIR DEINE RESERVIERUNG!!!](https://www.universe.com/events/checkst-du-comedy-freches-stand-up-open-mic-thecomedypub-tickets-8S49H0?ref=MeetUp)
Willkommen zu **Checkst du? Comedy**, der mittwöchlichen Stand-up-Show im *The Comedy Pub*, bei der junge Talente und erfahrene Comedians gemeinsam für einen Abend voller Energie sorgen. Frech, direkt und immer spontan – hier wird Stand-up neu gedacht und live getestet.
Diese Show ist der Spielplatz der neuen Generation von Comedians in Wien. Sie bringen frische Ideen, mutige Witze und ungeschliffene Jokes auf die Bühne. Erfahrene Profis runden den Abend ab und zeigen, wie Timing und Bühnenpräsenz funktionieren. Das Publikum bekommt so einen spannenden Mix: jung, wild, frech – und trotzdem mit Comedy-Handwerk auf höchstem Niveau.
## 🤔 Was ist ein Open Mic?
Ein Open Mic ist der Ort, an dem Comedy geboren wird. Hier probieren Newcomer ihre allerersten Jokes, während Profis ihre neuesten Texte testen. Manche Gags knallen sofort, manche landen vielleicht erst beim zweiten Versuch – aber gerade das macht den Reiz aus. Du bist live dabei, wenn Comedy entsteht, wächst und manchmal glorreich scheitert. Und genau das ist **echtes Stand-up**.
## 🍻 The Comedy Pub – Der Comedy-Hotspot in Wien
Die Bühne von **Checkst du? Comedy** ist der historische Altbaukeller im *The Comedy Pub* (Kettenbrückengasse 7, 1050 Wien). Oben: Irish-Pub-Flair mit Drinks, Bar-Snacks und guter Stimmung. Unten: Kelleratmosphäre pur – nah dran, direkt und perfekt für Stand-up.
Dank der Lage direkt an der U4-Station Kettenbrückengasse bist du in wenigen Minuten mitten im Comedy-Geschehen.
## 💡 Eintritt frei – Spenden willkommen
Lachen soll für alle zugänglich sein! Deshalb ist der Eintritt frei. Aber Comedy lebt auch davon, dass Publikum und Künstler\*innen sich gegenseitig unterstützen. Wenn du gelacht hast, zeig’s mit einer Spende – fair, ehrlich und der direkteste Applaus überhaupt.
## 🎟️ Regeln für das Publikum
Damit die Show für alle funktioniert, bitten wir dich um ein paar Basics:
* Sei pünktlich – die besten Plätze sind schnell weg.
* Lachen ausdrücklich erwünscht – am besten laut!
* Keine Gespräche während der Show, Fokus auf die Bühne.
* Kein Heckling – die Comedians sind funny genug. 😉
* Spenden sind willkommen – Support your locals!
## 🎉 Warum Mittwoch?
Weil der Mittwoch sonst der langweiligste Tag der Woche wäre. **Checkst du? Comedy** macht aus der Wochenmitte ein Highlight: jung, frech, energiegeladen und mit Line-ups, die jede Woche neu überraschen.
Wenn du Lust hast auf ehrliches Stand-up ohne Filter, dann bist du hier genau richtig.

Well you know it, typescript transpiles to javascript. Your templates? Also javascript.
Compilation and typechecking, you guessed it. Also javascript.
All the tooling was javascript until ... well when? Thats the question. 😇

Agentic UI with Angular: Implementing AI-powered Assistants
More and more frontends integrate Agentic UI and AI assistants that answer questions, display dynamic components, pre-fill forms, and guide users through processes. In this session, I demonstrate how to bring these capabilities into both existing and new Angular applications. We explain how to provide the necessary context via state management, forms, and routing, and show how the assistant uses tool-calling to access Angular services and generate dynamic UIs. After this session, you will know the technical steps required to extend your Angular solutions with a powerful AI assistant.

The Secret Life of Events in Angular
You've written (click) hundreds of times. But have you ever wondered what's actually happening behind the scenes? Angular's event system has a hidden layer — one that lets you do things most developers don't even know are possible. In this talk, we'll pull back the curtain, explore how it all works under the hood, and see how to apply this magic directly in your real-world projects.

All the terrible Angular hacks I had to do so you don't have to
Have you ever wanted to create a custom lifecycle hook for services in Angular? Or tried to use Angular’s DI inside an InjectionToken factory? Probably not, and that’s perfectly fine. I did, though, and it led me down a path of some truly strange Angular hacks. Maybe you’ll find them useful; at the very least, I promise they’ll be entertaining.

KI, Kognition und Burnout: Was tun, wenn Effizienz den Flow killt?
**KI, Kognition und Burnout: Was tun, wenn Effizienz den Flow killt?**
KI impliziert die Hoffnung, sich - von langweiligen Tätigkeiten befreit - endlich kreativen und spannenden Dingen widmen zu können. Jedoch häufen sich Sorgen um mögliche Nebenwirkungen: Begriffe wie **KI Burnout**, **KI Fatigue** und **KI Workslop** sprießen nur so aus Studien und Social Media Posts. In diesem Talk geht es um Zusammenhänge zwischen Burnout, Cognitive Load, Flow und den Einsatz von KI Tools - und um mögliche Lösungsansätze.
**Sabine Ballata** ist Co-Founderin von Kokoro ([www.bekokoro.com](http://www.bekokoro.com/)), wo sie Produktdesign und Strategie leitet. Über ihre berufliche Tätigkeit hinaus engagiert sie sich aktiv in der Design-Community und leitet seit Oktober 2018 den UX Vienna Book Club, um den Wissensaustausch unter UX-Praktiker:innen zu fördern.

**Stranger Platform Engineering: The Two Sides of Observability in Your IDP**
Your Internal Developer Platform lives in two worlds. In the **Right Side Up**, developers rely on self‑service observability to build, deploy, operate and debug their apps. In the **Upside Down**, the platform itself must be observable to ensure its reliability, performance, and to understand usage patterns and adoption.
**The twist?** these two worlds are not separate. Improving observability *of* the platform directly improves the observability *for* the applications built on top of it. Just like in *Stranger Things*, observability becomes the force that connects both realities—creating feedback loops, strengthening the platform’s foundations, and enabling teams to spot issues before they cross between worlds.
This talk reveals why mastering both sides of observability is essential for any modern IDP. Expect real-world examples, a few supernatural analogies, and practical guidance you can bring back to your platform team—no Demogorgon hunting required

Data & Analytics Wednesday - Google Analytics Alternatives
**Google Analytics Alternatives**
Is it finally time to make the switch away from Google Analytics? Two-and-a-half years ago Jason Packer asked this question at Columbus Web Analytics Wednesday.
Since then: Google’s Universal Analytics has been sunset, we’ve changed our name to Columbus Data & Analytics Wednesday, and Jason has released two editions of his book “Google Analytics Alternatives”.
Fresh off the release of the 2nd edition of his book, we thought it was time to re-open this conversation. While people love to complain about it, GA’s market share has remained relatively constant (at least in the United States). Why is that? You won’t find any complaints about GA4 in this talk, but rather an overview of what’s currently available in the market and how to frame your decision-making process.
We’ll also be giving out some free copies of Jason’s book! So even if you’ve got a “GA4Lyfe” tattoo (no judgement), there’s free books to go with the free pizza and beer.
