Join the *Helsinki Stoics* group for an evening of reflection on a simple but powerful Stoic insight: **It’s not what happens to us that shapes our experience, but how we choose to see it.** This meetup offers an open and welcoming space to explore how our thoughts, interpretations, and inner reactions influence how we experience everyday life. We will look at how the mind works moment by moment — and how Stoic philosophy helps us relate to our thoughts with more clarity and calm. Whether you’re new to Stoicism or already familiar with its ideas, this discussion is for anyone interested in self-reflection, perspective, and practical philosophy. This time we’ll explore: * First impressions — the immediate thoughts and reactions that arise automatically * Buying into thoughts — how we sometimes treat those impressions as facts * Reframing — learning to question and reshape our interpretations, rather than fighting events themselves No prior knowledge of Stoicism is required — just curiosity about how perspective shapes experience. **Note:** The discussion will be in English unless all participants prefer Finnish. **--** Tule mukaan *Helsingin stoalaisten* kokoontumiseen pohtimaan yhtä stoalaisen filosofian keskeistä oivallusta: **Kokemustamme ei muovaa niinkään se, mitä meille tapahtuu, vaan se, miten tulkitsemme tapahtumat.** Illan aikana keskustelemme yhdessä miten ajatukset, tulkinnat ja sisäiset reaktiot vaikuttavat siihen, millaisena koemme arjen tilanteet. Mitä mielessä tapahtuu ensivaikutelmasta tulkintaan — ja miten stoalainen filosofia voi auttaa suhtautumaan ajatuksiin selkeämmin ja rauhallisemmin. Tapaaminen on avoin ja keskusteleva, ja se sopii niin ensikertalaisille kuin niille, joilla on jo jonkin verran kokemusta stoalaisuudesta. Tällä kertaa tarkastelemme: * Ensivaikutelmia – millaisia ajatuksia ja reaktioita syntyy automaattisesti * Ajatuksiin tarttumista – miten alamme kohdella ensivaikutelmia tosiasioina * Uudelleentulkintaa – taito tarkastella ja muuttaa tulkintojamme, ei itse tapahtumia Erityistietoja ei tarvita — riittää, että olet utelias pohtimaan, miten näkökulma vaikuttaa kokemukseen. **Huom:** Keskustelu käydään englanniksi, elleivät kaikki osallistujat toivo suomea.

Welcome to join our Sahaja Yoga meditation meetings in English! The meetings are free of charge and you can just show up. The group consists of people of different ages and nationalities who have been meditating different periods of time. Newcomers are welcome at any time. We normally sit on chairs or on pillows on the floor, so there is no need to bring a mat and you can wear normal clothes. Meditation means mental silence or thoughtless awareness. You are present here and now, but your mind is not bombarded by thoughts from the past or the future. In this state, you feel peace and joy, which are the essential elements of the present moment. With regular practice of meditation, it is possible to establish this state within us. The group is lead by volunteers who are experienced and can offer guidance to get you started. We give a short introduction to the meditation and after that we do meditation exercises. We also give tips on how to meditate at home. After the meditation class, we have a cup of tea and there is time for questions. Welcome! We hope to see you in our meditation meetings!

Tervetuloa **PowerUp! Live Meetup** tapahtumaan kuulemaan Power Platform -aiheisia esityksiä ja verkostoitumaan. Tapahtuman mahdollistaa [Fellowmind](https://www.fellowmind.com/fi-fi/) ja se järjestetään Helsingissä osoitteessa Takkatie 1, 00370 Helsinki. Rekisteröidy tapahtumaan ja muista kutsua kaverisi myös mukaan. Tapahtumassa on tarjolla mielenkiintoisia esityksiä ja keskustelua Power Platformiin liittyen. **Aikataulu (16:10 - 20:00)** 16:30 - 17:00 - Ovet auki 17:00 - 17:05 - PowerUp! intro 17:05 - 17:20 - Tervetulo-sanat **Fellowmindilta** 17.30 - 18.00 User defined functions: Yksi funktio, monta käyttöä, Hilla Mäntyomena 18.20-18.50 Mitä Microsoft Agent 365 tarkoittaa Power Platform -ylläpitäjälle?, Mikko Koskinen, Forward Forever 19:00 - 20:00 - Verkostoitumista ja avointa keskustelua User defined functions: Yksi funktio, monta käyttöä Hilla Mäntyomena Onko Power Apps -sovelluksesi täynnä toistuvaa logiikkaa eri kontrolleissa? User Defined Functions tarjoaa siistin ratkaisun. ——————————————————— Mitä Microsoft Agent 365 tarkoittaa Power Platform -ylläpitäjälle? Mikko Koskinen, Forward Forever Microsoft tuo agenttien hallintaan uuden kontrollitason: Agent 365, Entra Agent ID ja Azure AI Foundryn control plane muuttavat sitä, miten AI-agentteja tunnistetaan, hallitaan ja suojataan koko tenantin laajuisesti. Power Platform -ylläpitäjät ovat tottuneet hallitsemaan Copilot Studio -agentteja ympäristöstrategian, DLP-käytäntöjen ja roolien avulla. Uudet agenttikontrollit laajentavat näkökulmaa merkittävästi: agentit eivät ole enää vain Power Platformin sisäisiä kohteita, vaan organisaationlaajuisia identiteettejä ja toimijoita, jotka näkyvät Entra ID:ssä, Purview’ssa, Defenderissä ja Azure Foundryssa. Tässä sessiossa käydään läpi Microsoft Agent 365 -konseptin keskeiset ominaisuudet ja se, mitä ne tarkoittavat käytännössä erityisesti Power Platform -hallinnasta vastaaville henkilöille. Sessiossa puretaan konkreettisesti: - Miten Agent 365 toimii keskitettynä agenttirekisterinä ja näkyvyytenä koko organisaation agentteihin - Mitä Entra Agent ID tarkoittaa agenttien identiteetin, omistajuuden ja elinkaaren hallinnassa - Mitä Power Platform -hallinnassa tulee ymmärtää Azure AI Foundry Control Planesta ja hybridien low-code / pro-code -agenttien hallinnasta - Miten nykyisiä prosesseja (onboarding, hyväksyntä, valvonta, incident response, poistaminen) tulee päivittää agenttien skaalautuessa - Miten Purview ja Defender laajentavat data- ja tietoturvakontrolleja agenttien toimintaan Esityksen jälkeen ymmärrät paremmin, miksi perinteinen Power Platform -governance ei enää yksin riitä ja mitä konkreettisia muutoksia omaan hallintamalliin on syytä tehdä agenttien yleistyessä. \*\*\* Haluatko puhujaksi PowerUp! Meetup tapahtumaan? Kerro siitä meille: [PowerUp! Meetup (Finland): Call for Speakers @ Sessionize.com](https://sessionize.com/powerup-meetup-finland/) \*\*\* Welcome to this PowerUp!

Money is everywhere — shaping our choices, relationships, ambitions, and fears. But beneath the spreadsheets and salaries lie deeper questions: Is money just a neutral tool — or something that quietly governs our lives? In this meetup, we explore the philosophical foundations of money and finance — not how to make it, but what it *means*. Discussion avenues may include: * Is money a shared fiction — and if so, why does it have such real power? * Is debt morally permissible — or inherently problematic? * Do we have obligations beyond what contracts specify? * Is lending cooperation… or domination? * Can owing money change what we owe as persons? * Is the desire for wealth a natural motivation — or a corrupting force? * Is the love of money truly the root of all evil? * Can a financial system be morally neutral? * Is inequality a feature of freedom — or a failure of justice? * Does money measure value — or redefine it? * Can everything legitimately be turned into something for sale? We’ll ask whether financial life is merely practical — or fundamentally ethical. No background in economics or philosophy required — only curiosity and a willingness to question the assumptions we live by. **Description by ChatGPT**

The WordPress Helsinki meetup group aims to bring people together of all skill levels, from beginners to WordPress professionals. WordPress Helsinki is purely organised by community volunteers, and operates under the WordPress code of conduct. This month, we welcome Daniel Spycher to speak about WordPress automation with [n8n](https://n8n.io/). In this talk, you will learn what n8n is and what you can use it for. We will also look at common risks and pitfalls. This is not just theory. You will see real examples that help you build your first workflows. We start with simple tasks such data manipulation and creating posts through the WordPress REST API to more advanced logic and automation. AI also plays an important role and can be integrated into your workflows. While n8n can be used for many purposes, this talk focuses mainly on practical use cases for WordPress. Daniel has been a WordPress developer and web designer for over 10 years. He enjoys building efficient systems and automating repetitive tasks. He is especially interested in tools that save time and reduce manual work.

Welcome to the **Vibe Design Hackathon**, hosted by **JCI Finland** and **MOW** in Helsinki! **Who is this event for?** This event is for all design-minded people - but you don’t need to be a designer to join. We’ll explore how AI tools can be used as part of the design process, and we encourage you to try out tools and workflows that are new to you. The goal is to learn and network as much as it is to build. We’ll work in small teams formed on-site. You can propose an idea (please think in advance), and we’ll select a set of ideas to build together at the start of the evening. Try to frame your idea as a **micro-SaaS / digital product** — something a small team could prototype and potentially turn into a lightweight product in two hours. **What to bring** * A working laptop * Any AI tool access/licenses you want to use * A flexible attitude and team spirit **We offer** * Workspace, Wi-Fi, and facilitation * Snacks & drinks **Schedule** 17:00 Doors open 17:15 Opening words (HNKK & MOW) 17:30 Selecting ideas + forming teams 17:45 Vibe design starts 18:45 Halfway checkpoint 19:45 Pitching results 20:00 Winners / shout-outs Later Afterparty at Kalle Limited to 30 participants — sign up early to secure your spot! **About us** Vibe Coding Finland is a community for developers, designers, business professionals and tech enthusiasts who love to vibe code, learn, and connect in a relaxed and inspiring atmosphere.

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.

The topic for March is "Our Bodies, Ourselves" Speak Easy: true stories, told live. The idea is simple: an audience, an open microphone, and great stories. Hilarious, gripping, poignant- it's up to you. Audiences are invited to come to listen or come to tell as folks from all corners of Columbus offer their stories live on stage! Held at Wild Goose Creative's warm, intimate space, this night of tales occurs on the 3rd Thursday of every month. Doors open at 6:30 pm, show starts at 7:00 pm. Please arrive early if you want to tell, as we generally only have room for a limited number of tellers, and the sign-up sheet has a tendency to fill up fast. Formed around the idea that people need stories--they're what hold and draw us together--SpeakEasy celebrates the strangeness and commonness of being human. And in a world of smartphones, Facebook, Twitter, and more . . . it gives people a real, breathing, in-person way to connect. The night is geared for true stories of all kinds, taking the best tales told around kitchen tables, in darkened pubs, on the street corner, and at late-night parties and giving them an audience. Speak Easy is also a great outlet for performers, writers, and artists looking to share their favorite stories and perfect their skills. We strongly encourage tellers to please tell the story rather than read it so we keep within the spirit of good storytelling and stay engaged with the audience. All are welcome. Hang around after the show for a drink and build community!

One of the most valuable parts of this community is the opportunity to think out loud with other product professionals. This session is built for exactly that. As we wrap up the quarter, it’s a great time to pause and reflect. What’s on track? What needs adjustment? Where could a small shift create bigger impact? Join fellow product professionals for a focused, interactive conversation designed to help you recalibrate for the next quarter. You’ll have the opportunity to share where you are, hear how others are thinking through similar challenges, and gain fresh perspective you can bring back to your team and organization. We’ll gather at 8:00AM, with discussion starting promptly at 8:15AM. 📍 First Watch - 7227 N High St Located in: The Shops at Worthington Ample parking is available. Food and beverages will be available for purchase. Start your morning with clarity and connection — we hope to see you there! ☀️

This is a relaxed, community-driven Unity GameDev meetup.

Bring a question. Bring a lesson learned. Or just come hang out and meet other developers. All skill levels welcome!

**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.
