Building on the success of the previous events, the **DevBP** series is back for the **14th time** with two great talks. **AI doesn’t fix weak foundations, it exposes them**. Messy data, unclear definitions, and buried business logic quickly become blockers. This time, we’ll **explore the foundations we need to strengthen** to build truly AI-ready systems. This English-language event will be held at the **Colossyan Budapest office**, where we'll provide snacks and drinks to fuel conversations. Arrival is from 17:30, Announcements and agenda at 17:55, first presentations will start at 18:00. \-\-\- **AI Exposed Our Data Gaps — Lessons from a CDP Migration on Building a Governed, AI-Ready Platform** with **[Szabolcs Magyar - Colossyan](https://www.linkedin.com/in/szabolcs-magyar/)** During our CDP migration, we realized that AI doesn’t fix data problems - it exposes them. Unclear definitions, weak ownership, and undocumented assumptions quickly become blockers when AI systems start querying your analytics layer. In this talk, I’ll share how we used dbt and stronger data governance to turn our analytics stack into a more reliable, AI-ready platform. I’ll walk through the key architectural decisions, trade-offs, and lessons learned while modernising a production system. **Digital Archaeology: Recovering Lost Business Logic in Legacy Systems** with **[András Lendvay - Inivate](https://www.linkedin.com/in/andraslendvay/)** Effective AI integration and organizational performance both fail without structured institutional knowledge. In modern organizations, this knowledge is often buried within undocumented legacy code as “hidden” logic and critical business rules. This session explores the methodology of digital archaeology: reverse-engineering systems to extract the “why” behind the “how,” ensuring that both human teams and AI agents have the foundational data governance and definitions required to function. \-\-\- Come learn and connect with other tech enthusiasts. See you there! You can also find the recordings of previous events on the [@DevBPMeetup YouTube channel](https://www.youtube.com/@DevBPMeetup).

Come and play boardgames with others in English! This event is hosted by the [Játszóház projekt](https://www.facebook.com/jatszohazprojekt). This group organizes game nights, they provide the games and explain the rules if you need it. They have a huge collection of board games, check it out [here](https://www.facebook.com/events/1200101185612794). If you wish to play with a specific game, they will ask what games to bring, usually on the day of the event in a facebook post. Check out the [event on facebook](https://www.facebook.com/events/1750065366402814) for more information. We usually split up into smaller groups based on games, and switch as the night goes on, so you can arrive late. You can bring your own game or choose one from the pile! ***Important*** **This event is not free!** You will have to buy a wristband at the entrace for 1000 HUF (500 HUF for students). You can pay with cash or you can buy your ticket [here](https://akvariumklub.hu/programok/hetfoi-tarsasozas-az-akvariumban-board-game-night/). You can buy drinks and food at the bar, please don't bring your own — — — Let me know if you have any questions, you can contact me or ask in the comment section. We also have a WhatsApp group chat, feel free to join [here](https://chat.whatsapp.com/JThEZv724MJ3hvnwBpfJA7)A

**This week's venue: Beer People \| Lázár utca 7\, Budapest 1065** We hold a bi-weekly workshop to encourage creative writing where we share pieces of creative writing and solicit feedback from the other attendees. Some members also use the forum to find others with whom to collaborate, edit work, and/or brainstorm plot, themes, settings, and so forth. And from time to time, we participate in competitions, recite and/or offer material for events organized by other groups. At the moment there is no prompt for this particular meetup. Instead, writers are invited to submit something they have (or are working on) or to craft a short story specifically for the event. Of course, there's no pressure to submit something. Many participants are interested in hearing ideas, questioning the authors, and examining style and technique. Often, we explore other published works as well. The submission guidelines are as follows: 1. limit the piece to 850 words (to give enough time for any other submissions being read at the event); 2. make the text available (though you can read it aloud) for the other attendees. Many authors bring a few printed copies, others post their work in the comments of the meetup; 3. have a question in mind for the group about the submission; and, 4. If offering something from a longer work, be prepared to give a little bit of background first.

A mesterséges intelligencia ma már nem jövőkép, hanem a mindennapi működés része. De mit jelent ez a gyakorlatban egy vállalkozás vagy szervezet számára? Hogyan lehet az AI-t nemcsak kipróbálni, hanem tudatosan beépíteni a működésbe? Ezen az estén vendégünk **Balogh Dávid**, az *AI-vezérelt vállalkozás* című könyv szerzője. Dávid vállalkozóként és tanácsadóként több száz hazai cég tapasztalata alapján mutatja meg, hogyan válhat a mesterséges intelligencia valódi vezetői eszközzé – nem technológiai hype-ként, hanem a hatékonyabb működés részeként. Az est célja – a Leannovation közösség szellemiségéhez illeszkedve – a közös gondolkodás, tapasztalatmegosztás és inspiráció. Ha érdekel, hogyan találkozik a folyamatos fejlesztés szemlélete és az AI által nyitott új lehetőségek világa, tarts velünk! A témabeszélgetés után Lean Coffee meetinggel folytatjuk:-) Az esemény látogatása Leannovation Egyesületi tagsággal díjmentes. Részletek, csatlakozás: https://leannovation.hu/leannovation-egyesulet/ Az eseményen kép- és hangfelvétel készül. Várunk minden érdeklődőt!

In this session, we dive into Pranayama, (an ancient practice to discover the flow of energy within) and the power of conscious breathing, which is one of the most important aspects of the original yogic lifestyle. On these Tuesday evenings, we do more than just a breathwork session: this is an opportunity to explore a true harmony between our breath & the mind - body connection. We begin with a 15-minute chest-opening yoga sequence to gently expand our lungs and prepare for deeper breathing (no need for gym clothes though, just an open mind). Then, we explore different breathing techniques designed for self-awareness, relaxation, and energy flow. These classes are designed to help you discover how breath can be a tool to balance, energize, and center yourself. To close, we immerse in a short yet profound "silent concert", a meditative sound journey where 174 Hz sound waves or white noise guide us into a state of deep harmony. Whether emotions are light or heavy, thoughts are clear or clouded, this is a space to simply be and find some peace.

This month's meetup is about the **[Titans](https://arxiv.org/abs/2501.00663) neural network architecture** published by Google Research: The goal of the architecture is to: * scale transformer-based sequence models for tasks requiring very long context * enable test-time memorization This allows models to maintain long-term memory effectively while running—without the need for dedicated offline retraining. We'll discuss the Titans architecture, with a focus on its implementation of the long-term memory module: * how neural networks can act as memory vs. classical fixed-size recurrent states * how this type of long-term memory compares to traditional RNNs, and why it enables models to learn new context on the fly We will also take a look at the **[MIRAS framework](https://arxiv.org/abs/2504.13173)**, which provides a higher-level abstraction for designing sequence models. The key idea of MIRAS is that sequence model architectures—from transformers to linear RNNs—can be viewed as complex associative memories under the hood. We'll see how Titans fits into this framework of neural network design, and why the authors state that Titans and MIRAS can: **"combine the speed of RNNs with the accuracy of transformers."** *** **Follow-up from the last event** HOPE, the reference architecture for Nested Learning, is built on a modified version of the Titans architecture. At our last event, we didn’t have time to discuss many important details about how HOPE is built. So, the March meetup will also act as a follow-up for anyone who missed some of the underlying architectural details last time. === ENTRY DETAILS === \- QR code with entry information will be available soon\, in the "Photos" section of this event page\. \- Gate closes at 18:15 \- no late entries\.

This workshop is designed to use the power of your intuition to create your own work of art. No previous artistic experience required — just bring your positive energy and I'll provide all the materials you need. **Fee: 8500Ft** At the end of the workshop, you will have created your own intuitive abstract painting and gained the confidence to express yourself spontaneously on canvas. The first part consists of 30 minutes, during which you draw various spontaneous lines on your canvas with your eyes closed and follow your intuition. The next part is about colouring the different spontaneous forms created by the intersecting lines. You can freely mix colors and paint within the shapes, while I guide and support you through the entire process.

*„A végzettségalapú megkülönböztetés az utolsó elfogadott előítélet. Az Egyesült Államokban és Európában az alacsonyabban képzettek lenézése erősebb (…) mint más hátrányos helyzetű csoportokkal szembeni előítélet."* **Michael J. Sandel - The Tyranny of Merit.** **(A program magyar nyelven zajlik.)** A modern társadalmak egyre inkább ünneplik a meritokráciát — azt az elképzelést, hogy a tehetség és a befektetett munka határozza meg a sikert. Elsőre ez logikusnak tűnik: akik többet tesznek hozzá erőfeszítésükkel vagy képességeikkel, jobb életet érdemelnek. Mégis sok kritika éri a meritokráciát. Egyesek szerint egyszerűen nem működik a gyakorlatban. Mások még tovább mennek: szerintük még ha tökéletesen működne is, akkor is igazságtalan — sőt, akár elnyomó rendszerhez vezethet. *A meritokrácia zsarnoksága* című könyvében Sandel amellett érvel, hogy ez a gondolkodásmód észrevétlenül átalakította a modern társadalmakat: erősítette az elégedetlenséget, az individualizmust, a társadalmi szolidaritás gyengülését, és akár radikális politikai mozgalmak megerősödéséhez is hozzájárult. **Bevezetés (15 perc)** Rövid bemutatkozással kezdünk, ahol a résztvevők röviden bemutatják magukat. * Elértél már valami igazán nehéz dolgot a karrieredben? * Mennyire vagy erre büszke? **Questions (1 hour and 45 minutes)** 1. Úgy érzed, valóban megérdemled mindazt, amid ma van? 2. Szerinted létezik valódi meritokrácia? 3. Dolgoztál már keményen úgy, hogy mégis kudarcot vallottál? 4. Szerinted a nehéz helyzetben lévő emberek nagyrészt felelősek a saját helyzetükért? 5. Igazságos, hogy egy vezérigazgató 100-szor többet keressen, mint egy alkalmazott? 6. A meritokrácia inkább összeköti vagy megosztja a társadalmat? 7. Egy ember piaci értéke tükrözi a társadalmi hozzájárulását vagy erkölcsi értékét? 8. Lehet egy társadalom egyszerre versengő és együttérző? 9. Ha a siker megérdemelt, akkor a kudarc is az? 10. Szerinted a meritokrácia inkább alázatot vagy arroganciát erősít? 11. A munkásosztály szavazói képviselve érzik magukat a mai progresszív politikában? Miért vagy miért nem? 12. Igazságos lenne magasabban adóztatni a sikert, ha a tehetség részben szerencse kérdése? 13. A politikáknak az esélyegyenlőség helyett inkább az eredmények egyenlőségére kellene törekedniük? 14. Mi történik egy olyan társadalomban, ahol mindenki „megérdemelt” helyére kerül? Mi történik azokkal, akik legalul maradnak? 15. Ha szorgalmas ember vagy, az a saját érdemed — vagy egyszerűen szerencsés vagy, hogy ilyen lettél? *** ### Gondolatkísérletek * Két gyermek: egy gazdag, egy szegény családban születik * Két világ: egy arisztokratikus és egy meritokratikus társadalom **RSVP:** Kérjük, erősítsd meg részvételedet itt a Meetup oldalon, hogy biztosítsd a helyedet.

Join us for a flat 2.6 mile hike along the Alum Creek Trail from the rear parking lot of the Easton Hilton Garden Inn to the Strawberry Farms Park and back. This scenic trail along Alum Creek is a gem. Come and hike it with us!

Join WQC on April 25th from 11am-1pm at Inniswood Metro Park for a Nature Photo Walk. All types of cameras welcome! Let's enjoy spring to the fullest... 🌻🌼🌷🐤

We'll meet at Griggs Reservoir Shelter House 5 and walk along the water to Griggs Park, then back — 3.3 miles total. A scenic out-and-back route along the Scioto River. One of the nicer stretches of trail in Columbus. Parking is available in the lot right next to Shelter House 5, off Riverside Dr. Here's an overview of the route on Google Maps: https://maps.app.goo.gl/Mo3Vz8c7bSzqmUDu8 All paces welcome. See you there.

[The Board Walks](http://www.theboardwalks.com/) are for curious people who love deep conversations. If that sounds like you, **bring a thoughtful topic** and join us for a 5-mile walk (10,000+ steps!). **HOW IT WORKS** **Step 1: Bring a topic** Before you arrive, think of **one** topic you want to explore. A question. A thought that's been on your mind. An obsession you want to geek out on. This is your ticket to the event. **Step 2: Circle up & share** We gather in a circle. Your friendly walk host gives a speech to set the tone. Everyone shares: your name, what you're grateful for, and your topic. That's it. 60 seconds. **Step 3: Walk, talk & float** We walk 5 miles. You naturally drift into conversation with 2-3 people at a time, pulled by topics that spark your curiosity. When you're ready to move on, just say: "I'm going to float!" **Step 4: Feel more alive** Two hours flies by. You're back where you started — but you feel different. More alive. More energized. More connected to yourself and others. That's why regulars join 20+ times. *For more details, read our [Orientation Guide.](https://www.theboardwalks.com/orientation)* **HOW TO BRING A GREAT TOPIC** A great topic = something you're genuinely curious about. Recent topics include: * "What are you passionate about right now?" * "What makes a good friend?" * "What's a belief you used to hold that you've completely changed?" * "How do you want to be remembered?" * "What would you do if money wasn't a factor?" Think of your topic like the dish you're bringing to our conversational potluck. If everyone brings an A+ dish (i.e. energizing, uplifting, expansive), we'll all walk away feeling lighter and brighter. **WHAT TO EXPECT** This isn't a fitness event with casual chitchat. It's a walking think tank where we explore life's big questions together, beyond small talk. *If you're looking for light banter or a standard networking event, this probably isn't the right fit.* But if you crave depth, genuine connection, and conversations that make you feel alive? You'll love it here. **FAQ** * Wear casual athletic attire and sneakers. It's a long walk! * We have multiple first-timers at each event. We work hard to create a welcoming, inclusive, clique-free space. * We welcome people of **all** ages, backgrounds, and industries who align with the [intention](https://www.theboardwalks.com/ground-rules) of this space. * Rain or shine, we've been out here nearly every week since July 2022. If the event is cancelled, we'll let you know. * Dogs, babies in strollers, parents, and friends are welcome — please text/email them the event link so they can RSVP and prepare a topic! **LOGISTICS** * If you'll arrive over 10 minutes late, we suggest skipping the event. It's hard to find us once we start walking, and your host can't answer messages during the event. * This walk is designed for everyone to *move together at the same steady pace* (about 20 min/mile). This format works best when the whole group moves in unison. If you have mobility limitations, we kindly encourage you to find an event better suited to your needs. * Read our [Orientation Guide](https://www.theboardwalks.com/orientation) for full details. * If you enjoy the event, send **[this](http://www.theboardwalks.com/)** to a friend or sign up for our **[newsletter](https://theboardwalks.beehiiv.com/)**. We're in multiple cities with more on the way. 🤠👋 **IF YOU WANT TO GO DEEPER...** [The Board](https://stan.store/ellebeecher/p/the-board) is the next step: a high-trust collective for renaissance people devoted to creating, connecting, and building lives that light us up. * This is a global HQ for people who crave big talk, deep connection, and dream collaborations with people across industries. If the walks feel like a spark... The Board is the fire. Apply [here](https://stan.store/ellebeecher/p/the-board).

Hi ladies. We will meet in front of the Nature Center and head to the two Observation decks. We will then hike Hickory Ridge, Ripple Rock, Overlook and Sugarbush trails to get approximately four miles total distance. We will walk approximately a 18 minute mile pace. Please wear appropriate hiking shoes.
