Join us for a nurturing and empowering in-person afternoon at **commonroom** for a form of networking going deeper. A local expression of our global **[Women Lead Community](https://women-lead-community.mn.co/),** each month we create a space for women to slow down, connect with themselves and others, and explore a new form of leadership grounded in **presence, purpose, and mutual support**. After a joint arrival, we take the time to reflect on our needs as well as what we each have to offer to the world. We have the opportunity to practice pitching our offers and needs in a safe space and connecting with other inspiring women who are eager to support each others growth. Just come as you are – curious, present, and open. No need to prepare anything. Bring a friend or meet new ones. Have something to write with you for the reflection and bring business cards and flyers of your offers, if you have any. The sessions are held in **English**. They are open to women of all backgrounds who are curious about co-creating a more conscious, caring, and connected world.

KubeCon is around the corner, and to get you in the mood for this, you get the next **Cloud Native Vienna Meetup** \- and this time\, we’re stepping into the "Upside Down\." Join us at [karriere.at](karriere.at) for an evening of deep-dive technical sessions and high-bandwidth networking. Whether you're hunting for Demogorgons in your logs or just trying to scale your Internal Developer Platform, we’ve got you covered. Agenda: * 17:30 - Doors Open * 17:55 - Welcome from the Organizers * 18:00 - Talk 1: Manav Singh ([karriere.at](www.karriere.at)) - homelabbing@karriere.at - Enabling Devs to Break the Cloud * 18:45 - Break / Networking * 19:00 - Talk 2: Andi Grabner ([Dynatrace](www.dynatrace.com)) - Stranger Platform Engineering: The Two Sides of Observability in Your IDP * 19:45 - Networking \-\-\- Manav Singh **Homelabbing@karriere.at - Enabling Devs to Break the Cloud** \-\-\-\- Andi Grabner **Stranger Platform Engineering: The Two Sides of Observability in Your IDP** Your Internal Developer Platform lives in two worlds. In the **Right Side Up**, developers rely on self‑service observability to build, deploy, operate and debug their apps. In the **Upside Down**, the platform itself must be observable to ensure its reliability, performance, and to understand usage patterns and adoption. **The twist?** these two worlds are not separate. Improving observability *of* the platform directly improves the observability *for* the applications built on top of it. Just like in *Stranger Things*, observability becomes the force that connects both realities—creating feedback loops, strengthening the platform’s foundations, and enabling teams to spot issues before they cross between worlds. This talk reveals why mastering both sides of observability is essential for any modern IDP. Expect real-world examples, a few supernatural analogies, and practical guidance you can bring back to your platform team—no Demogorgon hunting required

**KI, Kognition und Burnout: Was tun, wenn Effizienz den Flow killt?** KI impliziert die Hoffnung, sich - von langweiligen Tätigkeiten befreit - endlich kreativen und spannenden Dingen widmen zu können. Jedoch häufen sich Sorgen um mögliche Nebenwirkungen: Begriffe wie **KI Burnout**, **KI Fatigue** und **KI Workslop** sprießen nur so aus Studien und Social Media Posts. In diesem Talk geht es um Zusammenhänge zwischen Burnout, Cognitive Load, Flow und den Einsatz von KI Tools - und um mögliche Lösungsansätze. **Sabine Ballata** ist Co-Founderin von Kokoro ([www.bekokoro.com](http://www.bekokoro.com/)), wo sie Produktdesign und Strategie leitet.

**Die absurdeste deutsche Comedy-Show Wiens: jung, wild & unberechenbar. Gratis Eintritt – jeden Donnerstag im Comedy Pub.** # [Hol dir deine Tickets hier!!!](https://www.universe.com/events/comedy-sein-vater-absurd-witziges-stand-up-open-mic-thecomedypub-tickets-CZ89PB?ref=MeetUp) Willkommen zu **Comedy sein Vater**, der Show, die klingt wie ein Meme und sich auch so anfühlt. Jeden Donnerstag im *The Comedy Pub* übernehmen junge, wilde Comedians die Bühne, um mit absurden Ideen, schrägen Gags und gnadenlosem Humor das Publikum zum Lachen (und manchmal auch zum Kopfschütteln) zu bringen. Hier gilt: nichts muss, alles kann. Von wahnwitzigen Gedankensprüngen über dunklen Humor bis zu völlig chaotischen Auftritten – **Comedy sein Vater** ist das Open Mic, bei dem Regeln aufhören und die Absurdität beginnt. Wer brave Comedy will, geht woanders hin. Wer das Unerwartete liebt, ist hier genau richtig. ## 🤔 Was ist ein Open Mic? Ein Open Mic ist die Spielwiese der Stand-up-Comedians. Hier werden Ideen geboren, getestet und manchmal auch sofort wieder beerdigt – live, unzensiert und direkt vor Publikum. Genau deshalb ist es so spannend: du erlebst, wie Stand-up entsteht, wie Comedians Risiko eingehen und wie oft daraus die lustigsten Momente des Abends werden. Bei **Comedy sein Vater** ist das Ganze noch ein Stück extremer: mehr Mut, mehr Chaos, mehr Überraschungen. ## 🍻 The Comedy Pub – Zuhause für Chaos & Lacher Austragungsort ist das **The Comedy Pub** (Kettenbrückengasse 7, 1050 Wien) – ein Irish Pub mit Herz und einem historischen Altbaukeller, der wie geschaffen ist für wilde Stand-up-Abende. Oben wartet die Bar mit Drinks und Pub-Atmosphäre, unten der Keller mit Underground-Flair. Niedrige Decken, warme Lichter, intime Stimmung – genau der richtige Ort, um Comedy an ihre Grenzen zu bringen. Dank der U4-Station **Kettenbrückengasse** gleich ums Eck ist die Anreise so einfach wie ein Lacher auf einen guten Witz. ## 💡 Eintritt frei – Spenden willkommen Hier gilt: Lachen kostet nichts, aber wer lacht, sollte geben. Der Eintritt ist frei, Spenden sind willkommen. Jede Reaktion des Publikums – ob Applaus, Gelächter oder betretenes Schweigen – hilft den Comedians, besser zu werden. Aber wer herzhaft gelacht hat, darf das auch im Spendenhut zeigen. ## 🎟️ Regeln für das Publikum Ja, auch im Chaos braucht es ein paar Spielregeln: * Sei pünktlich – sonst verpasst du den besten Wahnsinn. * Respektiere die Bühne – auch wenn’s absurd wird. * Lachen, Stöhnen, Kopfschütteln – alles erlaubt, aber bitte keine Zwischenrufe. * Kein Heckling – das endet nie so lustig, wie du denkst. * Spenden sind Liebe – und Comedy sein Vater lebt davon. ## 🎉 Warum Donnerstag? Weil am Donnerstag alles passieren darf. **Comedy sein Vater** ist das perfekte Ventil für Wochenend-Vibes, die schon zu früh kommen. Hier siehst du Comedians, die an die Grenze gehen – mit Humor, der nicht brav sein will, sondern mutig, absurd und manchmal gnadenlos ehrlich ist. Wenn du eine Show suchst, die dich überrascht, irritiert und garantiert zum Lachen bringt, dann bist du hier genau richtig. Willkommen beim Chaos.

Every Saturday at 18:30, The Comedy Pub transforms into a comedy playground where fresh jokes are built, tested, and unleashed. ## Event Description: At **Comedy Factory**, anything can happen. New comedians step on stage for the very first time, while experienced performers bring their sharpest jokes and wildest new ideas. The result? A raw, unpredictable, and unforgettable night of comedy. With **10–12 comedians each week**, you’ll see a mix of bold experiments, risky punchlines, and polished sets.

An Open Mic is where comedy is born. Comedians test their newest material, experiment with wild ideas, and interact with the audience in real time. Sometimes the jokes kill, sometimes they bomb – but that’s exactly the fun. As an audience member, you get to witness comedy in its rawest form, up close and personal. ## 🍻 The Comedy Pub – Vienna’s Home of Stand-up The show takes place in **The Comedy Pub** (Kettenbrückengasse 7, 1050 Vienna).

Grab a drink, settle in, and enjoy the only dedicated stand-up comedy club in Vienna. Centrally located right by **U4 Kettenbrückengasse station**, it’s the perfect meeting point before heading out into your Saturday night. ## 💡 Free Entry – Donations Welcome Comedy should be for everyone. That’s why entry is free! But if you had a great time (and you will 😉), we invite you to drop a donation in the bucket at the end of the show. It’s the best way to support the comedians who made you laugh. ## 🎟️ Audience Rules To keep the show fun and fair for everyone, we ask for a few simple things: * Be on time – comedy waits for no one. * Respect the stage – no talking during sets. * Laugh loud, clap hard – comedians feed off your energy. * No heckling – it never ends well. * Show love with a donation if you laughed. ## 🎉 Why Saturday? Because weekends deserve a big laugh. **Comedy Factory** is the perfect early-evening start to your Saturday – international, experimental, and guaranteed to surprise you. With a new lineup every week, it’s always fresh, always different, always funny. Start your night with us, then take the laughter out into Vienna. #ComedyFactoryVienna #EnglishComedyVienna #ViennaComedy #StandupVienna #ViennaNightlife #ViennaEvents #ComedyVienna #LiveComedyVienna #EnglishOpenMic #StandupComedyVienna #ViennaExpats #ExpatsInVienna #ComedyShowVienna #ViennaLaughs #FunnyInVienna #ComedyClubVienna #ViennaWeekend #SaturdayNightVienna #ViennaFun #ViennaThingsToDo #ComedyLifeVienna #ComedyCommunityVienna #ViennaTourists #InternationalComedy #WildComedyVienna #ExperimentalComedy #ViennaStage #ViennaCulture #ViennaNightOut #LaughsInVienna #ComedyHotspotVienna #ViennaStandupScene #ViennaLaughing #ComedyPubVienna #ViennaSaturday #ViennaLOL #ComedyAddictsVienna #ViennaGiggles #ComedyUndergroundVienna #ViennaHahaha

Wenn Sie **HU** (gesprochen Hjuu) täglich zwanzig Minuten lang mit Liebe singen, beginnen sich die Bande und Fesseln zu lösen, welche die Seele einengen. Nicht alle auf einmal, sondern sehr langsam, in einem Tempo, das Sie verstehen und annehmen können. Während diese Bindungen gelöst werden, wächst die Seele in spirituelle Freiheit hinein, für mehr Freude, Weisheit und Frieden.

Film chosen for this week is: 🎥 **The Metamorphosis of Birds** A quiet, poetic Portuguese film about family, memory, and the passage of time.

It is an organisation that works on social issues such as Emergency & Homeless Assistance, Food Rescue and Environment Protection. MUT is a non profit organization that provides us with the space to host the event. A small donation towards their cause helps them a lot.

**The Listening Room — First Gathering** So much of life happens in loud spaces and quick conversations that never quite go beneath the surface. The Listening Room is meant to be the opposite of that — a quieter space where people can slow down, talk honestly, and actually listen to one another. For this first gathering, we’ll meet in a small group and explore a simple conversation prompt together. The goal isn’t debate or performance — just thoughtful conversation and the chance to connect with others in a genuine way. Our prompt for this gathering will be: **When have you felt truly seen or understood by another person?** Everyone will have the opportunity to share if they’d like, but there’s absolutely no pressure — listening is just as valuable as speaking here. We’re keeping the group intentionally small so the conversation can feel relaxed and natural. Looking forward to meeting you. — Benny
