We'll have another session with talks. The main topic will be about Safe Scala and DAPR. Safe Scala is a subset of the Scala language which strictly enforces the discipline of tracking all effects via Capabilities. It was originally pitched by Odersky as safe way to let AI agents write code, since they can't just run arbitrary code from JDK nor do side effects in general. But it may have seemed thus as a purely academic exercise. This is where DAPR comes in. It's an innovative cloud runtime from Microsoft, which lets programmers focus on writing business logic. The rest, like wiring up service calls, queues, handling retries or managing state is delegated to a language agnostic sidecar container. The point of the presentation will be to prove that if we represent individual aspects of DAPR as Capabilities, we can write apps in Safe Scala. We will prove that Safe Scala can actually be practical choice for writing typical cloud (micro-)services. We'll also have a round of lightning talks. This event is sponsored by [Pure Brew](https://purebrew.tech/)

Something is shifting in the world, and most of us can feel it even when we can’t quite name it. This evening is an invitation to slow down together and look more carefully at what’s happening — the forces pulling us upward into endless striving and downward into exhaustion, and the possibility that these are not separate crises but expressions of the same underlying dynamic. The cracks appearing around us may be less a sign of collapse than an opening. Not an evening about fixing everything. More an exploration of what it might mean to find footing — and even moments of joy — in disorienting times. ### How the evening will unfold The first part of the evening will be a reflection and conversation led by František, with space for questions and dialogue. After that, the evening opens up: tea, food, smaller conversations, and time for half-formed intuitions to meet others thinking along similar lines. Školská 28 has hosted this kind of slow, attentive exchange for decades, and the space itself shapes the atmosphere of the evening. Stay as long as feels right. ### About František Over the past decade, František has moved between very different worlds — from research in Xinjiang to theology classrooms, from long-distance cycling journeys to communities working on systemic change. Along the way, he became increasingly interested in the deeper questions underneath modern life: how to live meaningfully in a time when many inherited structures no longer feel stable. Today he stewards Hostačov, a 16th-century château in the Czech Highlands, where he is building a home for the kind of unhurried inquiry modern life rarely leaves room for. ### The container The evening is hosted under the umbrella of IDG Czechia (Inner Development Goals), a community focused on cultivating the inner capacities needed to navigate complex challenges. František is one of the core contributors to the IDG Czechia Centre. Contribution for the space: 0–200 CZK, paid at the venue.

Learning Czech can be hard and demotivating, especially when studying alone. **This meetup is a shared study session where we come together to stay focused, motivated, and make progress — each in our own way.** This is a co-learning / co-studying session, not a class. There is no teacher, no lesson, and no study material provided. Everyone comes with their own resources and studies independently, in a shared environment. 🧠 **How it works** • We all bring our own material: • textbooks • homework from a Czech course • Duolingo or other apps • reading practice • vocabulary review, etc. • We mainly work individually • We are free to: • ask questions • help each other • share tips and resources • No teacher, no formal structure, no pressure 👥 **Who is it for?** • Czech learners of all levels • Non-Czech speakers (expats, internationals) • Czech native speakers are welcome if they want to help, but this is not a language exchange ⏱ **Practical info** • Location: Cafedu 12, Škrétova 490, 120 00 Praha 2 (Metro A and C, Muzeum station) • Duration: 2 hours, or less or more, as you want • Day & time: Monday, 18:00 • Group size: small group for now • Free event — please support the café by ordering a drink ☕ If you’re learning Czech and lack motivation when studying alone, come join us — let’s find it together 🙂

Figma je prý mrtvá. AI prý nahradí designéry. A FE developer prý teď zvládne UX sám — stačí správný prompt. Nebo je to naopak? Máme Figmu, máme designéra — nepotřebujeme FE developera. Jak vidí budoucnost svých profesí UX designérka **Klára Scholleová** a **Matin Staněk** — frontenďák a specialista na designování webů s AI? V prostorách [Etnetera Core](https://www.etnetera.cz/) (Jankovcova 1037/49, Praha 7, 170 00). 18:00 - otevřeno 18:45 - panelová diskuze (Klára Scholleová, Matin Staněk, Petr Koláček) 20:00 - networking

**Léto klepe na dveře a před námi je poslední pražský předprázdninový meetup. Než začnete se svým agentem řešit, kam na dovolenou a co si vzít s sebou, a vyměníte prompty za offline čtení na pláži, stavte se pro poslední dávku nápadů! 🤖☀️🔥** Pohodový večer, kde to nebude o tom, že nás AI nahradí, ale o tom, co s ní reálně zvládneme líp. Jako vždy odstartujeme Nowwwinkami a pak se ponoříme do programu, který stojí za odložení dovolenkových plánů o jeden večer. Přijďte si pro poslední nálož inspirace, než pošlete své agenty na virtuální pláž a všechno utichne v dovolenkovém a okurkovém režimu. ☀️🏝️🥒 **Hlavní line-up** 🤩 * 🟢 18:00 otevíráme dveře v **CDN77** * 1️⃣ 18:30 **Nowwwinky** od Tomáše Kouta * 2️⃣ 19:00 **Mezistavy: React nechce, abyste řešili async** od Adama Kováře * 3️⃣ 19:30 **Vibecoding 280+ dní poté** od Jana Honzy Černého a.k.a. chemiXe * 4️⃣ 20:00 **Co mi chybí v** **BEM** (lightning talk) od Jirky Cerhana * 🎓 80+ nadšených účastníků * 🍻 a v neposlední řadě kvalitní networking \-\-\- 1️⃣ Tomáš Kout se svými **Nowwwinkami** jako obvykle otevře večer svým přehledem toho nejzajímavějšího z poslední doby. \-\-\- 2️⃣ Následuje přednáška na téma **Mezistavy: React nechce, abyste řešili async** od [Adama Kováře](https://www.linkedin.com/in/adam-kov%C3%A1%C5%99-0905a0169/) z [CDN77](https://www.cdn77.com/) Většina interakcí v UI je asynchronní, spinner browser tabu nám už nestačí a frameworky stále hledají řešení. Odpověď React teamu je, že async řešit nemusíte, alespoň ne tak jako doposud. Ukažme si, jak toho chtějí docílit pomocí transitions a action patternu. Adam o sobě: *„Mám rád otevřený a rychlý web, přesto posledních 6 let vyvíjím v Reactu. Věřím, že RSS je technologie budoucnosti a ve volném čase luštím křížovky.“* \-\-\- 3️⃣ Přednáškový blok uzavře [Jan Honza Černý a.k.a. chemiX](https://www.linkedin.com/in/chemix/) příspěvkem **Vibecoding 280+ dní poté** ...a pak přišel vibe coding. Najednou stačilo pár vět do chatu a před očima začaly vznikat funkční prototypy rychlostí blesku. Jenže to nebyli jen prototypy. CEO, manažer, grafik dostali nástroj kterým začali plevelit codebase a vibecode apokaplypsa začala... Tato přednáška ukáže, co jsme se za více jak 280 dní naučili. Jak s apokalypsou bojovat. Jak předcházet nakažení. Jak se bránit proti nákaze. A jaké jsou příznaky nakažení nejen kódu, ale i u lidí. To celé trošku s nadsázkou a hlavně otvírákem k diskuzi u piva. Jan o sobě: *„Digitální alchymista – rád zkoumá substituce UX, UI, AI, frontendu i backendu. Všude i nikde. Offline mísí s online. Tam, kde klávesnice končí, začínají kostky a karty. Spoluorganizátor technických meetupů po celé České republice, klid hledá u rydel nebo v lese.“* \-\-\- 4️⃣ A na závěr v odlehčeném duchu naservírujeme lightning talk na téma **Co mi chybí v** **BEM** od [Jirky Cerhana](https://www.linkedin.com/in/jiri-cerhan/) ze [SiteOne](https://www.siteone.cz) BEM metodiku pro organizaci CSS většina z nás důvěrně zná. Ve své praxi jsem ale narazil na pár míst, kde to maličko skřípe. S nástupem CSS custom properties se nabízejí nová řešení, která posunou přehlednost a snadnou modifikaci komponent o úroveň výš. **Máte zájem se připojit do bloku ⚡️Lightning talk(s) taky?** Napište a zajistěte si své místo ještě na této akci. \-\-\- Neváhejte s registrací a zabookujte si místo – bude to stát za to! 🎉 👉 Pro další zajímavé novinky a dění sledujte kanály komunity na [Youtube](https://www.youtube.com/@FrontendistiCz), [X](https://x.com/Frontendisti), [Facebooku](https://www.facebook.com/frontendisti/), [Instagramu](https://www.instagram.com/frontendisti/), [LinkedInu](https://www.linkedin.com/company/frontendisti/posts/?feedView=all) nebo navštivte [náš web](https://www.frontendisti.cz).

**🎟️ REGISTER [HERE](https://luma.com/mewsrnd-whenaileavesthelab) TO SECURE YOUR SPOT AT THE EVENT 🎟️** Frontier AI models are evolving quickly, but the real challenge is no longer just building larger systems, it is turning advances in LLM research into reliable, efficient, and valuable products in the real world. ​ We invite you to join a panel discussion featuring experts working across AI research and engineering, who will share their perspectives on what actually matters in the next wave of LLM development. The conversation will explore the trade-offs between scale, efficiency, reasoning, and product impact, as well as what it takes to move from experimental models to systems that can be deployed at scale. The discussion will be moderated by **[Rogers Leo](https://www.linkedin.com/in/rogersjeffreyl/?utm_source=luma), Director of Engineering and Product (Agentic AI) at [Mews](https://www.mews.com/en?utm_source=luma).** ​This panel will go beyond the hype and focus on practical lessons from building with LLMs today. We will look at where current approaches break down, what “good enough” really means in production, and why efficiency and system design may matter as much as model capability. ​ **Panelists:** **[Karol Lasocki](https://www.linkedin.com/in/karol-lasocki-1a86b2151/?utm_source=luma)**, Senior Machine Learning Engineer at **[BottleCap AI](https://www.bottlecapai.com/?utm_source=luma)** **[Luděk Matyska](https://www.linkedin.com/in/ludek-matyska/?utm_source=luma)**, AI Lead at **[ROUVY](https://rouvy.com/?utm_source=luma)** **[Soheyla Mirshahi](https://www.linkedin.com/in/soheyla-mirshahi-phd/?utm_source=luma),** AI Governance & Product Leader at **[T-Mobile](https://www.t-mobile.com/)** ​**Agenda:** 18:00 Doors open 18:30 Panel discussion + Q&A 19:30 Networking **🎟️ REGISTER [HERE](https://luma.com/mewsrnd-whenaileavesthelab) TO SECURE YOUR SPOT AT THE EVENT 🎟️** \-\-\-\-\-\- Photographs and video recordings may be taken during this event for documentation and promotional purposes, including use on websites, social media, and other communication channels.

Join us for deep dive tech talks on AI, GenAI, LLMs and Agents, hands-on experiences on code labs, workshops, and networking with speakers and fellow developers. **Agenda:** \* 5:30pm\~6:00pm: Checkin, Food/drink and networking \* 6:00pm\~8:00pm: Tech talks and Q&A \* 8:00pm: Happy Hour at Courthouse Social (cross the street) **Tech Talk: Secure Developer Environments in the Age of AI Agents** **Speaker:** Patrick Brown (Coder) **Abstract:** Federal engineering teams are under pressure to ship faster while meeting some of the most demanding security and compliance requirements in the world. In this talk, Patrick Brown of Coder explores how cloud development environments (CDEs) give agencies a foundation to accelerate software delivery without sacrificing control — and why that foundation matters even more as AI-powered coding agents enter the workflow. He'll cover how CDEs keep source code off endpoints, enforce zero-trust access patterns, and provide the consistent, ephemeral infrastructure that both human developers and AI agents need to operate safely at scale. **Speakers:** Stay tuned as we are updating speakers and schedules. If you have a keen interest in speaking to our community, we invite you to submit topics for consideration: [Submit Topics](https://forms.gle/JkMt91CZRtoJBSFUA) **Sponsors:** We are actively seeking sponsors to support AI developers community.

For decades, application security has been built around a simple assumption: humans are the primary producers of software. We train developers, review their pull requests, model threats in design meetings, and build controls around human decision-making. That assumption is rapidly breaking down. As AI coding assistants evolve into autonomous software agents, organizations will gain access to an effectively unlimited engineering workforce capable of producing software at a speed no human team can match. The pressure to adopt these systems will be driven not by curiosity, but by competition. Companies that successfully harness agentic development will ship faster, iterate faster, and potentially outpace those that do not. This shift forces a fundamental rethinking of application security. The future of AppSec is not securing developers—it is governing an agentic workforce. Threat modeling, code review, security testing, and change management will not disappear, but they will need to operate at machine speed and increasingly be performed by systems rather than people. In this talk, Ken Johnson, CTO of DryRun Security, explores what the next decade of application security may look like, the assumptions that will no longer hold, and why security professionals must understand these systems deeply if they hope to influence the future rather than react to it.
