Dark Comedy Night
A tight night of dark humor!
Bring your bad mood ☠️☠️ —leave grinning. Luxembourg Comedy invites you a tight night of dark humor with your local and traveling comics.
### **Dive into a night where no subject is taboo—from socio-economic shakeups to the world’s messiest headlines—all twisted through a dark, fearless lens. Curated by a crew of wickedly smart local comedians, this show cuts to the bone and finds the laugh hiding underneath. Not for the easily offended: expect the worst… and you might just be rewarded with the best—the kind of cathartic, wrong-but-right laughter you only get when comics go all the way.**

Dream count by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
We will kick off 2026 in full force with the latest masterpiece from celebrated Nigerian author Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie.
« Chiamaka is a Nigerian travel writer living in America. Alone in the midst of the pandemic, she recalls her past lovers and grapples with her choices and regrets. Zikora, her best friend, is a lawyer who has been successful at everything until, betrayed and brokenhearted, she must turn to the person she thought she needed least: Omelogor, Chiamaka’s cousin. Kadiatou, Chiamaka’s housekeeper, is proudly raising her daughter in America, but faces an unthinkable hardship that threatens all she has worked to achieve »
Through Dream Count, Chimamanda marks her grand return to the literary world, 12 years after Americanah. She trains her fierce eye on women and questions the very nature of love itself. Is true happiness ever attainable, or is it merely a fleeting state?
The book is available in Luxembourg librairies:

[https://maps.app.goo.gl/qAAmK4Luf8NiGM9E8?g_st=ic](https://maps.app.goo.gl/qAAmK4Luf8NiGM9E8?g_st=ic)
The restaurant is located in the heart of Luxembourg City, easily accessible on foot, by bus, or by tram. You will find it on the Grand Rue, just a short walk from the central pedestrian zone (from Oberweis in Grand Rue, it is about 80 metres). From Grand Rue, you need to turn into a small way going through an archway and stay for 15 metres on the left. So the restaurant is not directly at the front of Grand Rue.

2 Day Real Estate Investing Intensive
**Day 1 — Foundation & Deal Control**
This two-day, end-of-month Real Estate Investing (REI) Intensive is designed for investors who want real traction, not theory. Day One is about controlling the deal flow. We break down how to find opportunities in today’s market, underwrite them correctly, and avoid the emotional and financial traps that wipe out most new and mid-level investors. You’ll learn how operators are sourcing deals right now, how to analyze markets and properties with discipline, and how to structure acquisitions so the numbers work before you ever swing a hammer. This is about building a repeatable system—not chasing the next shiny strategy.
**Day 2 — Capital, Execution & Scale**
Day Two shifts from deals to execution and scale. We go deep on renovation management, capital stack planning, and exit strategies—fix and flip, buy-and-hold, and hybrid plays—so you understand how to protect downside risk and maximize upside. You’ll see real case studies, real numbers, and real mistakes made by experienced operators, not influencers. The intensive closes by connecting the dots between education and action, showing you how to plug into ongoing coaching, deal opportunities, and higher-level collaboration for investors who are serious about building long-term wealth, not just doing a one-off deal.

Azure CBUS January: Learn Infrastructure-as-Code Through Minecraft

**Joint Meetup: Azure CBUS × Columbus HashiCorp User Group × DevOps Columbus**
What if learning Terraform and Infrastructure-as-Code didn’t feel like a whitepaper… but more like a game?
Join us for a joint Azure CBUS, Columbus HashiCorp User Group, and DevOps Columbus meetup where **Mark Tinderholt** \(Principal Architect\, Microsoft Azure \| HashiCorp Ambassador \| “The Azure Terraformer”\) shows how **Minecraft** can be used as a surprisingly powerful way to understand real-world Infrastructure-as-Code concepts.
In this session, Mark will demonstrate how Terraform and Azure can be used to provision, configure, and manage Minecraft servers—while teaching the same patterns you’d use for production cloud infrastructure.
### What we’ll cover
* Infrastructure-as-Code fundamentals using **Terraform**
* Provisioning real infrastructure on **Azure**
* Applying **IaC best practices** (immutability, repeatability, versioning)
* How playful environments like Minecraft make complex concepts *click*
* Why learning through experimentation beats click-ops every time
### Who should attend
* Developers, platform engineers, and cloud engineers
* Terraform users (new or experienced)
* Anyone curious about Infrastructure-as-Code but tired of boring examples
* Minecraft fans who want to see it used in a totally unexpected way
No prior Minecraft experience required—just curiosity and a willingness to learn infrastructure the fun way.
Come for the blocks, stay for the Terraform. 🧱➡️📐
