🌱👀 Spring Incoming… One Last Winter Link-Up 🔗
Where locals, expats & travellers turn Thursday into Small Friday.
Hey everyone!
Whether you’ve just landed in Zagreb, been here a while, or live right around the corner, **Small Friday International Zagreb** (**[SFIZ.FUN](https://sites.google.com/view/smallfridayinternationalzagreb)**) is your go-to for winter evenings, language swapping, and good times with great people.
📍 **Where?** The Beertija, Pavla Hatza 16
🕗 **When?** Thursdays, every other week from 8PM
✨ Free to join, just grab a drink and support the bar’s rockin’ vibe 🍺🎸
✨ Open to all, all ages, all vibes, all language levels welcome
💬 **What to expect?**
🗣️ **Language Exchange:** English, Croatian, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Ukrainian, Russian… you name it 💬🌐
🌍 **Cultural Vibes:** Locals, expats, travellers, Erasmus students . . . sharing tips, stories & laughs 🎭✨
🤝 **New Connections:** Real convos, real mates, winter evenings to remember 🤗
🍷 **Weekend Planners:** From concerts, winter sports, partying to fests and day trips, let’s plot our winter adventures 🎶❄️🏔️
🌟 **Why now?**
🎭 Winter is when Zagreb slows. The days are cold and sometimes snowy, the city quieter, more reflective. It’s the season for winter walks, museums and cinemas, snow-dusted hikes on Sljeme, and simple pleasures like warm food and long conversations indoors.🌍💖💬
Zagreb is unusual in that winter can mean a mini ski break close to home. Sljeme offers easy slopes for beginners and casual skiers, without crowds or queues. Ice skating adds to the rhythm, outdoors at Šalata or indoors at Velesajam and the Admiral Ice Dome. ⛸️🎿
And the best way to share it? At **[SFIZ.FUN](https://sites.google.com/view/smallfridayinternationalzagreb)**. Our meetups are where plans get made, tips get swapped, and crews form to explore Zagreb together. 🌍💖
🍺 **Why The Beertija?**
Because it’s that place everyone ends up wishing they’d gone to 😏✨ Warm beer cellar vibes 🍻🔥, cosy living-room energy 🛋️☕, 🚭 non-smoking inside (happy clothes, happy lungs 😌), plus a covered outdoor patio for quick smoke breaks 🚬😉. Skip it, and you’ll hear about it later 👀💬
💡 Top tip: Turn up early, smile, catch someone’s eye, and dive into conversation, that’s how the magic starts 😉💫
No pressure, just rock up and join the crew.
💖 Let’s ditch the screen, grab a drink, and meet the world!
See you soon,
**SFIZ Crew**

CZSK PPUG Meetup
Pojďme se pravidelně potkávat a sdílet zkušenosti z Power Platformy, co nás na ní baví, co nás trápí a co nového zajímavého přichází. A pokud už nám to někde reálně běží, pochlubme se, jak to funguje nebo nefunguje.
Témata jsou primárně Power Automate, Power Apps, Power Pages, Power BI, Copilot Studio, Dynamics 365 a Dataverse. Budeme rádi i za méně pokročilé příspěvky, protože většinou jsme velmi hluboko v technických detailech.

Lazy Hike: Coffee → Cable Car → Medvednica Walk & Lunch
Let’s take a little Sunday escape from the city and enjoy some fresh mountain air together.
If the weather cooperates, we’ll organise a relaxed **open-air meetup on Sljeme**, combining coffee, a cable-car ride, a gentle walk through the forest, and lunch at a mountain lodge.
This is a **very easy hike**, suitable for almost everyone, the walk is mostly flat with only a few small uphill or downhill sections.
***
## ☕ Step 1 – Coffee Meetup
We start the day with a relaxed coffee gathering:
📍 **[Dr. Who Café](https://www.instagram.com/explore/locations/2087441298235509/caffe-bar-drwho/)**
🕚 **11:00 – 12:00**
If you prefer to skip coffee, you can simply join us at the cable car.
***
## 🚡 Step 2 – Cable Car Ride
📍 **[Sljeme Cable Car](https://www.zicarasljeme.hr/) Base Station**
🕧 **12:30**
From there we’ll take the cable car up the mountain and **exit at the Brestovac station** (the penultimate stop).
***
## 🥾 Step 3 – Easy Walk
From Brestovac we’ll walk **less than one hour** to the mountain lodge **Runolist**.
The path is scenic and mostly flat, making it perfect for conversation and enjoying nature.
***
## 🍲 Step 4 – Lunch at Runolist Lodge
[Runolist](https://runolistsljeme.com/) has a small cantina where we can have lunch together.
Typical meals cost roughly **10–20€**.
After lunch we’ll walk back the same way and return to the city.
Expected arrival back in Zagreb: **around 17:00 (5pm)**.
***
## 💳 Cable Car Tickets
🚡 **Free** for Zagreb residents with an ID showing Zagreb domicile
🚡 About **10€ return** for others
***
## 🌦️ Weather Note
This meetup is **weather dependent**.
If the weather turns bad, we will simply keep the **coffee meetup at Dr. Who** and skip the mountain trip.
Please **check the [WhatsApp group](https://sites.google.com/view/smallfridayinternationalzagreb/faq/sfiz-whatsapp-guide-keeping-it-fun-and-respectful) on Sunday morning** for the final confirmation.
***
## 🌿 What to Expect
• relaxed pace
• friendly international crowd
• fresh air and forest views
• casual conversations
• optional lunch together
No hiking experience required, just good shoes and a good mood.

Algorithmic Trading & Crypto
## (Lesson 2)
## What to expect
Project Equilibrium is an in-person introduction to disciplined, rule-based trading automation. This first event is designed to be clear, practical, and approachable no hype, no pressure, and no prior technical background required.
### Why we meet (two-session structure)
This meetup is structured as **two lessons**:
**Lesson 1 — The “Why” (mindset + framework)**
* What Project Equilibrium is (and what it is not)
* Why we focus on process, rules, and execution discipline
* What “24/7 execution” means in practice
* Q&A and open discussion
**Lesson 2 — The “How” (step-by-step setup)**
* A simple walkthrough of the basic tools you need
* Step-by-step guidance to install and prepare the required exchange apps/accounts
* A clear checklist to be ready for future sessions
(You won’t be left alone—everything is explained calmly and in order.)
### What to bring
To make the second lesson smooth, please bring:
* **A smartphone** (for authentication and exchange app setup)
* **A laptop** (for the setup steps and configuration)
If you only have one device, you can still join Lesson 1. The setup lesson is simply easier with both.
### Who this is for
* People curious about algorithmic execution and portfolio discipline
* Beginners who want a structured approach
* Experienced traders who want more consistency and less stress
### Agenda
* Welcome + introductions
* Lesson focus of the day (Why / How)
* Guided walkthrough (where applicable)
* Q&A + next steps
### How to find the group
* Arrive a few minutes early and look for the **Project Equilibrium** group.
* I will be there to welcome attendees if you’re unsure, simply ask the venue staff for the Meetup group name.

Using Philosophy to Cope with Current Events
So this month's prompt is more general. I think we can all agree that we are living in "unique" times that require coping skills. I think that one role and/or purpose of philosophy is to help us deal with our daily lives and our "unique" times. So, let's share our feelings and thoughts about which philosopher/philosophy we turn to in order to deal with our crazy events. Who/what helps you stay focused in your daily life and helps you sleep at night. I find that Stoicism with a little philosophical pessimism mixed in goes a long way in helping me deal with what I see as very destructive, fearful and mean spirited public policies at both the state and federal levels. Hope to see you on March 28th!
CBusData - Discover the Power of Window Functions
Window functions have nothing to do with the Windows operating system but provide a “window” to a result set when used in SQL queries. They are powerful, set-based methods to view data in unexpected ways. Window functions provide easy, set-based solutions to solve some common problems:
* Using running totals
* Performing operations in intervals
* Identifying data gaps and islands
* Performing aggregates without losing detail
Many people are confused by window functions and do not know how to use them properly. This session will explore window functions, how they work, and how to use them. Demonstrations with several examples will solidify how window functions can simplify queries and make them more powerful.
