Design se mění. Designéři dnes píšou kód, dělají PR, shipují featury. AI nástroje změnily to, co je reálně možné zvládnout sám. A hranice mezi designem a engineeringem se stírá rychleji, než stíháme přepisovat job descriptiony. Design engineering není o tom, že designér trochu umí kód. Je to posun v tom, kde design končí a co všechno může ovlivnit. UX Monday 13. dubna je o tom, jak to vypadá v praxi. Žádné teorie, spíše živé ukázky designérů, kteří tím žijí každý den. **Dva speakeři, dva reálné setupy, dvě živé ukázky:** 🎤 **[Jakub Šalmík](https://www.linkedin.com/in/jakubsalmik/)** \- Design Engineer @**[Duvo.ai](Duvo.ai)** 🎤 **[Albert Zikmund](https://www.linkedin.com/in/albertzikmund/)** \- Designer @**[Pencil.dev](Pencil.dev)** Přijďte se podívat, jak vypadá budoucnost designu dnes.

Hi all! My name is Cara, and I am a native English speaker from America living in Prague. This a meet up for t**hose learning English as a second language** and want the **opportunity to practice**. It will be a fun and relaxed setting where we will play games to **promote English conversations** or have some kind of activity. This club will meet **every other (two Mondays each month) Monday evening.** The goal is for each person to walk away having learned new English words and have more confidence when speaking in English. Please, bring some money if you want to purchase a coffee from Evento. **This event is sponsored by a church.** The church that sponsors this English meet up is **Církev bratrská, Bohnice** [https://www.cbbohnice.cz](https://www.cbbohnice.cz/) . We want to live lives that are reflective of Jesus. Like Jesus we want to help others in meeting a practical need, in this case that would be speaking in English. At the end of the English club, we will extend an invite to anyone who is interested in exploring faith, wants to know more about Jesus, or wants to meet up to read from the Bible. However, we will never trick you into attending and will always be honest about the content of our meetings. *You do not have to attend religious events to be a part of English Club.*

It's open gaming night again! Come alone (or with friends) and meet some new people to game with. Just look for the 'Open Gaming' table(s) and feel free to sit in.

Learning Czech can be hard and demotivating, especially when studying alone. **This meetup is a shared study session where we come together to stay focused, motivated, and make progress — each in our own way.** This is a co-learning / co-studying session, not a class. There is no teacher, no lesson, and no study material provided. Everyone comes with their own resources and studies independently, in a shared environment. 🧠 **How it works** • We all bring our own material: • textbooks • homework from a Czech course • Duolingo or other apps • reading practice • vocabulary review, etc. • We mainly work individually • We are free to: • ask questions • help each other • share tips and resources • No teacher, no formal structure, no pressure 👥 **Who is it for?** • Czech learners of all levels • Non-Czech speakers (expats, internationals) • Czech native speakers are welcome if they want to help, but this is not a language exchange ⏱ **Practical info** • Location: Cafedu 12, Škrétova 490, 120 00 Praha 2 (Metro A and C, Muzeum station) • Duration: 2 hours, or less or more, as you want • Day & time: Monday, 18:00 • Group size: small group for now • Free event — please support the café by ordering a drink ☕ If you’re learning Czech and lack motivation when studying alone, come join us — let’s find it together 🙂

Mimojiné se dozvíte o tom jak Amazon zasadil krutou ránu Oraclu. Přednáška je určena lidem, kteří tuto technologii neznají. Nejedná se o tutorial ani řešení zapeklitých DB query, ale o úvodní seznámení, abyste věděli, zda se touto technologii chcete zabývat hlouběji, popřípadě kdy se vám hodí. **Schedule** **18:30** – Doors open **19:00** – Talk “Úvodní představení Spark a PySpark” 19:45 – Lightning talks: add yours to [https://bit.ly/prpylight](https://bit.ly/prpylight) after 20:00 – Networking **Good to know** * You don’t have to register for this meetup – the actual attendance is much bigger (40–70 Pythonistas) than indicated in the “Going” list here. * **Cash only payments – club doesn’t accept cards.** * Talks at Pyvo are mostly in Czech but it there’s somebody who doesn’t understand Czech talks are switched to English if the speaker is able to do so. * Besides both soft drinks and beer it's possible to eat at the club.

\#\# The Premise What if you could take any idea — half-baked, borrowed, ridiculous, too early, too late — and run it through a gauntlet of AI agents and sharp minds until it either becomes bulletproof or reveals exactly why it doesn't work? That's this meetup. \*\*The Hypothetical Agentic Unicorn Clinic\*\* is a structured, playful, and rigorous session where we take startup ideas — yours, someone else's, totally made up — and improve them in real time using agentic workflows, collective intelligence, and honest feedback. No judgment. No stakes. Just ideas getting better. \-\-\- \#\# Why "Hypothetical"? The hardest part of sharing an idea isn't the idea — it's the fear of being judged for having it. So we made it hypothetical. You're not pitching your life's work. You're not asking for funding. You're not committing to anything. You're running a \*\*thought experiment\*\*: \*What would it take for this idea to become a unicorn?\* That framing changes everything. When the idea is hypothetical, you can be honest. You can poke holes. You can say "this probably doesn't work because..." and someone else can say "unless you do X." You can disagree without it being personal. You can be wrong without it mattering. The best insights come when the stakes feel low enough to think clearly. Hypothetical Idea Submission Form https://form.typeform.com/to/CPRbn0RL \-\-\- \#\# What Actually Happens \*\*You bring an idea. Any idea.\*\* It could be: \- Something you've been sitting on but are afraid to say out loud \- A startup you saw and thought "that's almost right but\.\.\." \- A totally absurd concept you find interesting \- A real thing you're building and want to stress\-test anonymously \- Something an AI suggested to you that you couldn't stop thinking about \*\*We run it through the clinic.\*\* The group — with the help of AI agents — takes the idea through a structured improvement loop: 1\. \*\*Diagnosis\*\*: What's the actual insight here? What problem does this solve? 2\. \*\*Challenge\*\*: Where does this break? What assumptions is it making? 3\. \*\*Repair\*\*: How do we fix the broken parts without losing the core? 4\. \*\*Amplification\*\*: If this worked\, what would make it a unicorn? 5\. \*\*Verdict\*\*: Is it viable\, pivotable\, or dead on arrival — and why? Each round takes about 20 minutes. We run 4-6 ideas per session. \-\-\- \#\# The Role of AI Agents This is an agentic meetup — so agents do real work, not just window dressing. During the session, we'll use agents to: \- \*\*Research the market\*\* in real time: Is anyone building this? What does the landscape look like? \- \*\*Steelman the idea\*\*: Generate the strongest possible version of the argument for why this works \- \*\*Identify failure modes\*\*: Systematically surface the ways this breaks \- \*\*Propose pivots\*\*: Suggest modifications that preserve the core insight while fixing structural problems \- \*\*Draft a one\-pager\*\*: Turn the improved idea into a coherent pitch summary The agents accelerate the process and introduce angles the group might miss. The humans provide judgment, context, and the instinct for what actually matters. This is what governed agents with flexible orchestration looks like in practice — not automation replacing thinking, but amplifying it. Hypothetical Idea Submission Form https://form.typeform.com/to/CPRbn0RL \#\# Who Should Come You don't need to have a startup. You don't need to be a founder. You don't need to have the idea ready when you register. You should come if: \- You're curious about how AI agents can be used for real strategic thinking \- You want to practice the skill of rapid idea development and critique \- You enjoy building on other people's ideas and having yours built on \- You want to see agentic workflows in action\, not just hear about them \- You want to contribute to a room of builders who think seriously about ideas \*\*What we're looking for in participants:\*\* \- Technically literate enough to follow an agentic workflow \- Willing to be both generous and honest in feedback \- Comfortable with ambiguity and unfinished thinking \- Curious\, not defensive You don't have to be an expert. You have to be willing to think in public. \-\-\- \#\# Format & Practicalities \*\*Duration:\*\* 2-2.5 hours \*\*Format:\*\* In-person (Prague) with livestream option \*\*Ideas per session:\*\* 4–6 \*\*Each idea:\*\* \~20 minutes of structured clinic work \*\*Timeline:\*\* \- 18:00 — Doors open\, idea submissions collected \- 18:30 — Brief intro: the format\, the rules\, the spirit \- 18:45 — Clinic begins \(3–4 ideas\, 20 min each\) \- 20:15 — Open discussion: what did we learn? \- 20:30 — Drinks\, conversations\, follow\-ups \*\*How to submit an idea:\*\* Fill out a short form before the event (2 sentences max — idea + the core assumption). We select 3–4 ideas for the session. All submissions are treated with discretion. You can submit anonymously if you prefer. Hypothetical Idea Submission Form https://form.typeform.com/to/CPRbn0RL \#\# The Rules 1\. \*\*No bad ideas\.\*\* There are only ideas at different stages of development\. 2\. \*\*Critique the idea\, not the person\.\*\* "This doesn't work because X" not "you haven't thought this through\." 3\. \*\*Build before you destroy\.\*\* Steelman first\, then challenge\. 4\. \*\*Hypothetical protects everyone\.\*\* No one is committed to building what we discuss\. 5\. \*\*Confidentiality by default\.\*\* What's shared in the clinic stays in the clinic\. \-\-\- \#\# Why This Matters Most ideas die not because they're bad — but because the person holding them never found the right room to test them. The clinic is that room. It's also a live demonstration of what agentic tools can do for strategic thinking. Not AI replacing judgment, but AI extending it — doing the research, generating alternatives, stress-testing assumptions — so the humans in the room can focus on what they do best: connecting patterns, making calls, and knowing when something is worth pursuing. \*\*When execution becomes cheap, the premium moves to orientation.\*\* The clinic is practice for that skill.

He created Finaram after seeing how complex and unclear the mortgage process can be, especially for foreigners navigating a new financial system. Before building Finaram, he explored the market from both a user and analytical perspective, identifying key gaps in transparency, accessibility, and user experience. Finaram combines data-driven tools with guidance from licensed advisors to help clients understand their options, estimate affordability, and move through the mortgage process with clarity and structure. His focus is on simplifying decision-making and helping people approach property financing in the Czech Republic with confidence. **Robin Petrásek** is the founder of Expats Finance, a mortgage advisory firm focused exclusively on expats in the Czech Republic. With over 16 years of experience in banking and finance, and more than a decade specializing in expat clients, he has personally helped over 400 foreign buyers successfully secure property financing. His team has arranged more than 2.5 billion CZK in mortgages, with a 100% success rate for clients who moved forward with a purchase. Robin focuses on making complex mortgage rules clear and helping expats navigate the Czech system with confidence. He collaborates with Finaram as a trusted mortgage advisor for expat clients.

There is a wisdom that lives in the sea — in its depth, its movement, its light. In this three-part series, we begin each ceremony with cacao to root into the body, soften, and arrive. From there, breath becomes a doorway into the inner waters — into movement, feeling, release, and deeper contact with what lives within. Each ceremony explores a different quality of the inner ocean: Fluidity — trusting the flow of life Depth — the courage to feel Luminosity — the light beneath the surface You are welcome to join the full journey or come to any ceremony individually. Each session is a complete experience on its own, while also forming part of a deeper unfolding process. DEPTH - This evening is an invitation to reconnect with your emotional depth, meet what is present without avoidance, and access inner strength and resilience. This practice includes intensive breathwork and cacao. It is not suitable for those who are pregnant or have epilepsy, glaucoma, serious heart conditions, severe cardiovascular disease, unmanaged severe hypertension, or acute psychiatric disorders. If you have any health concerns, please reach out in advance so the practice can be adapted safely. If you have food allergies or sensitivities, please also let us know beforehand. When: Thursdays 9/4, 16/4, 23/4 at 19:00 Price: 450 CZK per ceremony / 1100 CZK full cycle via atmaprague@gmail.com

This month we bring you a seminar from the host of Prague's famous Cafe Philo, Albert Hoffman, entitled **“Paths in the Wood”**. In this seminar, we'll be exploring **the later writings of Martin Heidegger** where he explores **our relationship to time, connection to place, and the very question of what it means to exist**. The relationship between Heidegger and the Black Forest in south-western Germany, the landscape in which he produced many of his most famous works, was one of intense emotional and intellectual intimacy. From the small, three-room cabin–which he affectionately called "die Hütte”-- **the forest becomes a strong metaphor for a way of thinking that moves more slowly and attentively than the technological mindset of modernity.** Heidegger’s later philosophy shifts away from the technical language of Being and Time toward a more meditative style of thinking. **What does it mean to “dwell”? Why does Heidegger so often write about forests, paths, clearings, and huts? And what might these metaphors reveal about his critique of modern technological society?** Whether you are new to Heidegger or already familiar with his work, join us for a discussion of how philosophy can help us reconsider our relationship to nature, place, and the way we inhabit the world. \*\*\* We’ll have tea and light snacks, but please feel free to bring any drink or snack you’d like to share! This event will be hosted in an apartment with a well-trained dog who will be happy to meet you. If anyone has concerns about dogs, let me know so I can be mindful about keeping her from bothering you. The buzzer is Everett and Mainous—we’re on the 5th floor, apartment 16.
