Join our Backgammon Meetup to play, socialize, and enjoy this classic game! Everyone’s welcome! Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced player. Expect fun, friendly games, laughter, and new friends. With the nice weather and the beautiful lakeside setting, it’s a perfect place to enjoy a few games and spend time together. Hopefully we can make the most of a sunny summer afternoon! ☀️🎲⛲️🍻🌳 👉 Please RSVP only if you plan to attend. 👉 Bring your own set if you have one. **How to Play (Quick Guide):** - Each player has 15 checkers and moves them toward their home board. - Dice rolls decide how many spaces you can move. - Land on an opponent’s single checker to send it to the bar. - Once all your checkers are home, start bearing off (removing them). - First to remove all checkers wins! **Fun Fact:** The Origin of Backgammon: Backgammon is one of the oldest known board games, with roots deeply embedded in the ancient civilisations of Mesopotamia. But it is in Persia, where the game truly flourished and evolved into what we now know as 'Takhte Nard'. Archaeological findings suggest that early forms of backgammon were played in Iran over 5,000 years ago. Artifacts such as game boards and dice have been discovered in sites like 'Shahr-e Sukhteh' (The Burnt City), indicating the game’s ancient origins.

Nice! You are looking for real long time friendship! You might have already lived in Berlin or other big cities and experienced the "Anonymous" culture for a while. Meeting random people over and over and never see the same person again! In order to find "Real Long Term Friendship" in Berlin, do as follows: * You should not care how many people are joining this meetup. You RVSP. Even if only one person is joining. Because if everyone are waiting for everyone else to RVSP, nobody joins and nobody finds a new friend. * You do not care how many people of the opposite sex are joining. You are looking for friends. Finding the best romantic partner in the world, while avoiding not very attractive others, can be your other goal, for another time. Here we are looking for Friends. Real ones. * You are going to risk a very precious property of yours: Your time! Yes, there are thousands of opportunities in Berlin, there might be a rock concert for free, a birthday party you might miss, an important person might call you and invite you spontaneously, but you never find new friends until you decide to risk your time and meet people anyway. "I will check my calendar and get back to you" also does not work. Commit your time and spend it. Trust me, you won't go bankrupt ;-) * You are ready to use your phone as a real phone! You might have been using your phone as a tablet to visit Instagram and Facebook and watch movies. But if you want to find friends, you must know that people might take your phone number and give you theirs. That means they will Call you! And you have to pick up the phone and answer it. If you want to find new friends, you must be ready to do something really hard for the first time after years: Call people first, and if they called you: Answer your phone! * You are going to meet some people twice! That's the point of friendship. We already can experience random encounters with random people in random places one at a time. But that is not called friendship. If you want friends, you must be ready to meet the same person more than once. If you agree with above, RVSP and COME! You will meet other people who think the same way. P.S: Now that you've read all the way down to here, I suggest you [watch this animation](https://player.vimeo.com/video/547249272?h=22f3dd0f6f).

The longest day of the year is comming and let's another Kotlin meetup. This time we geather at N26! **⚠️⚠️⚠️ Due to a venue policy please submit the following form for additional details. Without it, you won't be allowed inside the venue:** https://forms.gle/XjqVXkD3FARCM6jA8 **Line-Up:** 👉 **TestBalloon: Kotlin testing is easier (and more fun) than you think** *by Oliver Okrongli* You want an easier way to write tests? Parameterize tests in plain Kotlin? Reuse a series of tests? Easily extend own your test setup? Have first-class support on all platforms? All without struggling with a huge framework API? TestBalloon is a new test framework that brings the power of Kotlin to your test setup. With a small-surface API, a hierarchical test structure and an extensible DSL, TestBalloon makes Kotlin testing easy, even at scale. Oliver, the author of TestBalloon, will show testing patterns and strategies and lots of practical examples, ranging from simple unit tests with less boilerplate to advanced testing with coroutines and generated data. This talk is based on insights first presented at KotlinConf 2026 in Munich. At the end of this talk, you’ll be able to firmly the answer the question: "How can I master Kotlin testing with ease, and make my team release with joy and confidence, every time?" 👉 **One Topic to Rule 'Em All** *by Yonatan Karp-Rudin* Kafka delivered every event exactly once, in order, and lost nothing. So what broke? This talk follows that question into the gap most event-driven systems leave open: what actually guarantees the order your domain depends on, and what quietly doesn't. We start from a real log line, find the crack in an architecture that looks clean and ships fast, and rule out the fix everyone reaches for first. The cure turns out to be one sentence of domain thinking plus one line of config, though the Schema Registry will fight you on the way there. A live demo runs the bug and the fix back to back: same load, same hero, one change. If you build with Kafka, you have probably shipped a version of this bug. You will leave able to spot it and fix it before it pages someone. 👉 **TBD** **Speaker Bios:** 🗣 Oliver Okrongli Oliver has been shaping and creating software from backend to frontends. He is the author of TestBalloon, a next-generation Kotlin test framework. Before, he has helped to maintain Kotest, and contributed to several libraries of the Kotlin ecosystem as well as the Kotlin compiler. Can be found on GitHub (OliverO2) and the kotlinlang Slack (Oliver O). When not developing, he is most probably in deep talks, dancing, snowboarding or F18 catamaran sailing whenever he gets a chance. 🗣 Yonatan Karp-Rudin Yonatan Karp-Rudin is a Staff Engineer at Billie, building event-driven systems in Kotlin and Spring Boot. Off the clock, he plays with AI agents and builds random tooling, trying to hand off as much of his own workflow to a machine as he can. The rest of the time he's brewing mead or deep in a video game. **🗣 TBD**

Over a billion documents processed. Millions of Veterans impacted. Hundreds of thousands of employee hours saved. Faster decisions. Greater accuracy. More benefits in the hands of our disabled Veterans. We created Smart Search, the world’s largest consumer of Amazon Textract, right when GenAI began reshaping what’s possible. Since then, we’ve built a suite of AI‑driven solutions that transform this data into real, measurable outcomes—accelerating benefits decisions for our Nation’s Veterans. Join us for a focused conversation on how an outcome‑driven approach to AI is helping us boost accuracy, streamline workflows, and deliver faster results for those who have served. This is a follow up to the AWS re:Invent 2023 "Intelligent Document Processing with Gen AI for Public Sector" presentation. About Speaker: Cameron Williams is a Senior Technical Project Manager and cross-functional technical leader at Booz Allen Hamilton with 15+ years of experience architecting and evolving scalable, cloud-native systems, from greenfield development to complex enterprise modernization. https://www.linkedin.com/in/cameronw711/ **THANK YOU** *Franklin University* for hosting our meetup!

Extensions allow developers to customize the editor with new features, integrations, and workflow improvements tailored to their needs. In this session, we’ll cover what extensions are and the different types available, including full extensions written in TypeScript or JavaScript, along with lighter-weight extensions such as color themes, language packs, language support, code snippets, and keymaps. We’ll also look at practical reasons a developer might create an extension, from automating repetitive tasks to adding custom tooling. The session includes a hands-on walkthrough of creating a new extension, testing it locally, and understanding the basic project structure. We’ll close with a brief overview of how extensions are packaged and published to the Visual Studio Marketplace and other distribution options. **YouTube Link** TBD
