Csendes Könyvklub - FSZEK Ötpacsirta u. 4.
English below
\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-
Tarts egy kis szünetet a hétköznapi rohanásban és gyere el csendes könyvklubunkba a Fővárosi Szabó Ervin Könyvtárba. Hozd magaddal az aktuális könyvedet, merülj el benne egy órácskát, majd oszd meg velünk, amit olvastál.
🗺 Hogyan találsz meg minket:
A tanulótér felújítása miatt az eseményt a FSZEK Ötpacsirta u-i épületében tartjuk (Ötpacsirta u. 4., a Központi Könyvtár bejáratával szemben): az épületbe beérve gyere fel az első emeletre a balra található lépcsőn. A termünk rögtön a lépcsősorral szemben lesz.
💡 Részvételi díj:
Nincs. :)
🥤 Étel-ital:
Kérünk, zárható üvegben hozz magaddal innivalót, ha az esemény alatt megszomjaznál. Másból inni, valamint a teremben enni nem lehet.
🕑 A menetrend:
17:00–17:30 – Érkezés és bemutakozókör: mit fogsz olvasni?
17:30–18:30 – Csendes olvasás
18:30–19:30 – Választható beszélgetés a könyvekről (magyarul)
Extra:
Az esemény után igény szerinti afterezés a [Prága Kávéház és Sörözőben](https://pragakavezo.hu/) (Baross u 8.), hogy ne csak könyvekről beszélgessünk! Ha csak erre jönnél, írj üzenetet, hogy ne kerüljük el egymást.
Fontos: Ez egy teljesen magyar nyelvű esemény. A bemutatkozó kör az elején és a kötetlen beszélgetés a végén is magyarul zajlik.
Az olvasás csendje persze mindenkié, így nyugodtan hozhatsz bármilyen nyelvű könyvet.

🤖 Robots Everywhere - The Rise of Embodied AI
Foundation models are leaving the cloud — and entering the physical world.
Robotics is quietly becoming the next global ecosystem.
Open-source foundation models. End-to-end learning. Industrial-grade reliability.
And radically new ways of building robotic bodies.
This meetup is special because we’re not just talking theory.
We’re bringing together speakers from:
• **Hugging Face** — powering one of the world’s leading open AI ecosystems, now expanding into open-source robotics
• **mimic robotics** — building scalable, real-world robotic manipulation systems for industrial deployment
• **Allonic** — reinventing how robotic bodies are manufactured through its 3D Tissue Braiding technology, recently raised €6M in pre-seed funding — the largest hardware pre-seed round in Hungary to date
This event is powered by **ShareTech Foundation** — a non-profit initiative building bridges between frontier technology, industry, and the European tech ecosystem.
This event venue is provided by **Tulip Interfaces** a manufacturing app platform empowering frontline teams with digital tools and real-time data.
***
** Date & Time:** March 5. 2026, 17:30
** Location:** Tulip Interfaces Office - Budapest, Köztelek u. 6, 1092

* Scaling pretraining without massive robot datasets
* Architectural bottlenecks in current pipelines
* Why system design becomes the true competitive moat
This is where research meets customer-grade deployment.
***
**Benedek Tasi**
Founder & CEO — Allonic
**Complexity in Robotic Bodies — And Making Them Simple Enough for Mass Production**
As robot intelligence scales, hardware complexity explodes.
Allonic introduces **3D Tissue Braiding** — a radically new way of “growing” robotic bodies in a single integrated process.
We’ll explore:
* Bio-inspired robotic connective structures
* Reducing hundreds of parts into unified builds
* Manufacturing scalability for the next robotics wave
This is how you build robots that can actually scale.
***
** Agenda**
17:30 — Arrival & welcome
18:00 — Talks
20:00 — Community networking
21:00 — Wrap-up
** Why You Should Come**
Because robotics is no longer sci-fi.
It’s becoming infrastructure.
And the next big shift in AI will be embodied.
Join us if you’re into:
* AI & foundation models
* Robotics & manipulation
* Industrial systems
* Hardware innovation
* Or just want to see where this is all heading
As always: high-signal talks, real practitioners, strong community.

Meditation (English)
Practice Buddhist meditation in the middle of Budapest!
The meditation is suitable for beginners. Each regular meditation is guided and begins with a short introduction. (all together is about 30-40 minutes)
Our regular Buddhist meditations have proven popular with people who want to integrate authentic Buddhist methods into their daily lives. For the modern lay person who is juggling work, relationships, and an active role in society, we teach a meditation that is easy to learn, and profound and powerful for experienced practitioners.
The meditation originates from the Karma Kagyu tradition of Tibetan Buddhism. It has a cumulative effect on mind, leading to greater clarity and calmness. Fearlessness, joy, and active compassion are the result of regular practice of Buddhist meditation.
* Do I need any special clothing?
No special clothing needed.
* Does the attendance cost anything?
No, the meditation is free.
Session #23 - What is the meaning of life?
From the earliest moments of human reflection, people have asked a question as simple as it is profound: **Why are we here?**
"*The unexamined life is not worth living,*"
Socrates
The search for the meaning of life is not merely an abstract puzzle; it is woven into our choices, our values, and the way we understand happiness, suffering, and purpose. In ancient Athens, Socrates suggested that a meaningful life begins with examination, placing self-knowledge at the center of human existence.
For Socrates, meaning was not something handed to us but something discovered **through dialogue, questioning, and moral awareness**. Aristotle later offered a different but complementary vision.
He proposed that the purpose of human life is eudaimonia, often translated as **flourishing**. According to Aristotle, meaning is found not in fleeting pleasure but in living virtuously, developing our capacities, and contributing to the life of the community. A meaningful life, in his view, is one lived in accordance with reason, balance, and excellence of character.
Modern philosophy introduced a more unsettling perspective. Jean-Paul Sartre argued that human beings are “condemned to be free.” There is no predetermined purpose, no universal script that defines our existence. Instead, meaning emerges from **our choices**. We create who we are through action, and with that freedom comes responsibility. Meaning, then, is not discovered but constructed.
Simone de Beauvoir extended this existential insight by emphasizing that meaning is not created in isolation. Human freedom exists in relation to others. To live meaningfully is to recognize both one’s own freedom and the freedom of others, and to engage in projects that affirm shared humanity. For de Beauvoir, meaning involves responsibility, connection, and the ethical use of freedom in a world that offers no fixed answers.
Across these perspectives, a fascinating tension emerges. *Is meaning something we discover, cultivate, or create?*
Is it rooted in virtue, happiness, responsibility, relationships, or purpose?
Perhaps the enduring power of this question lies precisely in the fact that no single answer has ever satisfied everyone. Today, the question remains open, inviting each generation to respond in its own way. Philosophy offers frameworks, science offers explanations, culture offers narratives—but ultimately the question turns toward each of us personally.
So as we begin this seminar, we return to the question that has echoed across centuries of thought and experience: **What is the meaning of life to you?**
**BIO**: Georgiana Turculet is a multidisciplinary philosopher and two-time Marie Curie fellow. She holds a PhD from Central European University and has held academic positions at several European institutions, including the Department of Philosophy at Pompeu Fabra University and the Department of Philosophy at University of Copenhagen

Women's Day Kintsugi - Art Therapy Workshop
This is a **paid** and **Women only** event!
In honor of International ***Women’s Day (8th of March)***, we celebrate not only strength and success, but also resilience — the quiet, powerful kind that lives in every woman’s story. Every scar, every lesson, and every woman who continues to rise — stronger, wiser, and beautifully whole.
***Kintsugi*** dates back to the 15th century and means “joining with gold” in Japanese. A broken object (ceramic) is glued together with lacquer and then the seams are covered with gold. Wabi Sabi, related to Kintsugi, is the philosophy of embracing our flaws and life’s fragility.
During the workshop, we will go through the various processes of Kintsugi – breaking, grinding, joining, gluing, gilding – thereby we will also see our own vulnerability on the path to becoming whole.
**Leading the workshop:** Jennifer Nyerki (Art and Sociotherapist)
**Date:** Saturday 7 March 2026 - 09:30-13:30
**Location:** 7th district
**Fee:** 15,000 HUF via bank transfer only!

**To register, send an email to thearttofreedom@gmail.com**
**What is art therapy?**
Art therapy is a self-development tool that uses creative expression for emotional awareness and personal growth.

Connected Westerville Night of Networking!
Connected Westerville Night of Networking flips the script on networking, with surprises and connections that'll make you say, "Who knew networking could be this much fun?!"
CBusData - Discover the Power of Window Functions
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.

We do have a limited amount of space, so RSVP right away and please honor your RSVP! I will keep an eye out and close off the event once we reach capacity.
See you at lunch!
