PCE Philosophic Conversation in English
PCE Philosophic Conversation in English
PCE - "Philosophic Conversation in English" is a discussion event in English language which focuses on psychology, philosophy, self-consciousness and self-realization. The conversation is based on inclusive discussion rules. We will meet at at a restaurant where we will have a private room exclusively reserved for our event. At the beginning we will choose the two topics to discuss. Everybody can suggest a topic. Afterwards we will vote what topics to discuss. The person who suggests a winning topic will start the discussion by explaining his/her idea. Afterwards everybody gets his/her chance to make a statement. But you can also decide to remain silent and only listen, if you prefer that. We have a time limit for statements, so that everybody has enough time to speak. It is not allowed to interrupt somebody who is speaking. After a statement everybody can ask a question and the speaker will answer. After the first part there will be a 15 minutes break before we start the second part. Everybody is welcome to our event: We are interested in your thoughts and opinions! It is no problem if you arrive late and you can also leave whenever you want. Please don't bring pets to this event because the room is usually very crowded. Please make sure to register for the event to secure your seat! Please check out last event's topics via this link: [http://pce-topic.project-website.org](http://pce-topic.project-website.org/)

"Unbreakable by design" + "Heaps of Trouble"
**As we're having limited space at our host, we have set the maximum attendees to be 40 and enabled the waitlist. If you cannot make it to the event, please change your RSVP so someone else can take your spot!** Agenda 18:00 doors Open 18:20 welcome, doors closing soon 18:30 **Unbreakable by Design: The Secret Tech of Antifragile Software** 19:30 Networking 20:00 **Heaps of Trouble -- Debugging Java OOM** 21:00 networking **Unbreakable by Design: The Secret Tech of Antifragile Software** How to turn pressure into performance? Anti-fragility of a software characterizes the benefit derived from the variability in faults and errors that have effected the system. Dependable software systems can learn from incidents & poor practices, how to avoid and to deal with them, to increase availability and performance. Despite their growing complexity and increasing size, modern software applications must satisfy strict quality requirements that impose short defect fixing and release cycles. To reduce the developers teams workload, and pressure to produce high-quality software on time, many software engineering tools and concepts are subject to continuous extensive development and improvement. In this talk, we will take a closer look at the technical aspects of anti-fragile software systems and how teams deal with errors and reliability. Through the technical analysis of anti-fragility and resilience we will discuss the advantages and drawbacks of systems and techniques, and not at least the relation between anti-fragility in the development process and the anti-fragility of the resulting software product. The audience can expect the topics such as design & operating principles, fault tolerance, fault handling, e.g. automatic software repair, fault injections, and TDD. The overview of methods and principles should encourage developers to adopt anti-fragility and resilience principles into their software architectures. **About the Speaker** **Iryna Dohndorf** is a software engineer at Karakun, where she works on customer projects using the Java technology stack. With strong technical expertise, genuine curiosity, and a deep passion for computer science, she develops technologies that tackle the challenges of modern companies and today’s society. As an active member of the BaselOne Program Committee, the Devoxx UK Program Committee, and a frequent international speaker, she is dedicated to inspiring developers and supporting the growth of the global Java community. An enthusiastic interdisciplinary researcher and developer, Iryna has conducted research in modeling and optimization at TU Dortmund and has worked on software for autonomous driving, government agencies, and EU initiatives supporting the advancement of organic farming.

Iryna’s recent articles include: * https://dev.karakun.com/2025/04/02/tdd-genai.html * https://dev.karakun.com/2024/06/26/ai-software-development.html * https://dev.karakun.com/2025/09/18/Kotlin-K2-Compiler.html * https://dev.karakun.com/2024/07/24/devoxxuk.html You can learn more about her software development work and research at: * https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=eIKkTkYAAAAJ&hl=en * https://www.amazon.com/-/de/dp/B00PULZWO8/ **Heaps of Trouble -- Debugging Java OOM** This presentation dives into the practical art of diagnosing Java OutOfMemory errors. We begin with a concise overview of how the Java heap is structured and managed, then move to the command line with jmap—demonstrating how to force heap dumps on demand and extract live histograms to spot memory hogs at a glance. Next, we switch to VisualVM for a hands-on look at opening, inspecting, and—crucially—comparing heap dumps to pinpoint leaks and growth patterns between states. The session culminates with advanced techniques: writing JavaScript snippets inside VisualVM to traverse the heap graph, filter objects, and automate custom analyses that go beyond the built-in tooling. Whether triaging a production incident or hardening an application, attendees will leave with actionable tactics to turn “heaps of trouble” into clear, debuggable insights. **About the Speaker** **Robert C Kahlert** is a Senior Software Researcher with Posedio. He hails from symbolic AI research and has worked on products and projects in pharmacology, defense, medicine, NLP and resource exploration. His interests include software engineering, compilers, cloud computing, knowledge representation and databases. In his spare time, he enjoys making the most of Vienna's amazing museums.

Smart Search + AI: An Outcome-Driven Journey from IDP to a Suite of AI
Smart Search + AI: An Outcome-Driven Journey from IDP to a Suite of AI
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!

AI Agents 101: How to Make ChatGPT Do Actual Work
AI Agents 101: How to Make ChatGPT Do Actual Work
Most people still use AI like a search box: type one question, get one answer, repeat. But the next step is AI agents: systems that can take a goal, break it into steps, use tools, remember context, and produce useful work for a human to review. In this beginner-friendly session, we’ll demystify what AI agents actually are — without hype or jargon. We’ll walk through practical examples of how agents can help with research, planning, writing, coding, operations, and personal productivity. We’ll cover: * What makes an AI “agent” instead of just a chatbot * How agents break tasks into steps * Where agents are genuinely useful today * Where they fail, hallucinate, or need human review * How to design simple AI workflows for your own work * A live demo of an AI agent-style workflow from start to finish No coding experience required. This is for anyone who wants to understand where AI tools are going and how to use them more effectively right now. LOGISTICS AND PARKING: The talk starts at 7:00 PM. The first half hour is reserved for everyone to get set up and mingle. Free pizza and drinks! The cheapest parking option is to find street parking, which will only cost you a few bucks. Otherwise, park in the nearby veteran's museum lot for $8. It's highly recommended you avoid the nearby $15 garage parking.
Battle of the personal agents
Battle of the personal agents
Join the Columbus AI community for a special event. **Battle of the Personal Agents** is your chance to see what people are actually building with AI agents and personal automation systems. Whether you’re running OpenClaw, Hermes, or a completely custom solution, bring your agent and show the community how it works. We’re interested in real-world implementations: the problems your agent solves, how you use it day-to-day, how it’s hosted and managed, how you built it, and why you’ve chosen to keep using it. Live demonstrations are encouraged, so be prepared to show your code, architecture, workflows, and your agent performing real tasks. This is less about polished presentations and more about sharing practical experience, comparing approaches, and learning from one another. If you’d like to present, please contact Chris Slee (via meetup) before the event so we can allocate enough time for everyone’s demonstrations. Come ready to show what you’ve built, discover what others are doing, and maybe find a few ideas worth taking home. Whether you’re deep in the field or just getting curious, come connect with others building and exploring AI in Columbus.
