🇬🇷 **Athens, we're getting together — and this one's going to make you think differently.** The QA community in Athens is coming together on **June 4th** for an evening of bold ideas, sharp conversation, and the kind of networking that actually sticks. This edition explores two fascinating intersections that don't get talked about enough — what does linguistics have to do with Black Box Testing? And what happens when quality engineering meets SEO? More than you'd think on both counts. **AGENDA** **\- Welcome & Introductions** - **Featured Sessions:** **Knowing the Next Big Thing: Black Box Testing and Linguistics** *by Apostolos Moutiakas* When we test a system without knowing its internals, we're essentially decoding behaviour through inputs and outputs — not unlike how we interpret language. This session digs into that connection and what it means for how we approach quality. **The Engineering Side of SEO: Diagnosing Technical Website Failures** *by Anatoliy Molodechkin* SEO isn't just a marketing problem — it's an engineering one. This session explores how QA thinking applies to diagnosing and fixing the technical failures that silently hurt your website's performance. -**🍕F&B, Networking & Fun** Whether you're a seasoned QA engineer, a curious developer, or someone exploring the craft of software quality — this is an evening worth clearing your calendar for. Expect great conversation, good company, and networking with Athens' finest QA minds. **Spots are limited — RSVP now to secure yours!** 📍 Zone01, Athens 🗓️ Thursday, 4 June 2026 🕡 6:30 PM \| 3 Hours **A Few Notes:** ✅ This is an in-person event ✅ RSVP does not guarantee a seat — A confirmation email will be sent one day before the event.

We are back with a new AWS User Group Athens meetup, and this time we are going deep into serverless, long-running workflows and the new possibilities unlocked by AWS Lambda Durable Functions. Modern applications often need to coordinate retries, state, delays, callbacks, human-in-the-loop steps, and distributed business logic. Traditionally, that usually meant external orchestration, explicit state machines, or custom persistence logic. In this meetup, we will explore how AWS Lambda Durable Functions can simplify that model by letting developers express reliable, long-running workflows directly in familiar programming languages. We will have two technical sessions: first, a deep dive into the core concepts of AWS Lambda Durable Functions and how they compare with AWS Step Functions; then, a practical session on building resilient conversational AI workflows with Amazon Bedrock agents and the Sinch Conversation API. A big thank you to **Epignosis** for hosting us at their HQ for this meetup. **Important venue information** This meetup will take place at **Epignosis HQ**. Please check the map and venue instructions carefully before arriving. The venue’s security team will be checking IDs at the entrance. For this reason: * You must provide your **full name** when RSVPing. * You must bring a **valid ID** for entry. * RSVP will close **2 days before the event** so that the attendee list can be shared with the venue. Please make sure the name on your RSVP matches your ID. *** **Agenda** **18:00 – 18:30:** Entry & networking **18:30 – 19:20:** Deep Dive on AWS Lambda Durable Functions Speaker: [Lefteris Karageorgiou](https://www.linkedin.com/in/lefteriskarageorgiou) **19:30 – 20:20:** Building Conversational Agents in Code with AWS Lambda Durable Functions Speaker: [Gunnar Grosch](https://www.linkedin.com/in/gunnargrosch/) **20:30 – open end:** Networking, 🍕🍻 *** **Session 1: Deep Dive on AWS Lambda Durable Functions** AWS Lambda Durable Functions makes it easier to build reliable, fault-tolerant applications using familiar programming languages like JavaScript, Python, and Java. In this session, we will explore how durable functions simplify retries, state management, and human-in-the-loop workflows for long-running processes, and how they compare with AWS Step Functions for orchestrating distributed applications. Through a live demo, you will learn how to use features like “steps” and “waits” directly in your IDE to handle failures, track progress, and orchestrate business logic with less complexity. **About the speaker** [Lefteris](https://www.linkedin.com/in/lefteriskarageorgiou/) is a Senior Solutions Architect at AWS with 20 years of experience in software engineering, specializing in serverless architectures. He is the author of the book **“Mastering Event-Driven Microservices in AWS”** and runs a weekly newsletter, **“The Cloud Engineers,”** where he shares insightful articles on cloud computing. Passionate about sharing his knowledge, Lefteris is a public speaker and frequently speaks at technical conferences such as AWS re:Invent, AWS Summits, and Devoxx. *** **Session 2: Building Conversational Agents in Code with AWS Lambda Durable Functions** Building multi-agent AI workflows usually requires complex state machines to handle unpredictable human delays. Building on the core concepts of AWS Lambda Durable Functions, this session dives into applied agent orchestration. We will coordinate Amazon Bedrock conversational agents using the Sinch Conversation API to handle inbound interactions. You will learn how to dispatch specialized AI agents, use callbacks to handle asynchronous human input natively, and build resilient, long-running chat architectures entirely in code. **About the speaker** [Gunnar Grosch](https://www.linkedin.com/in/gunnargrosch/) is a Developer Advocate at Sinch and an engineer with over 25 years of experience building software, scaling developer communities, and making complex technology accessible. He started as a community member, became an AWS User Group Leader, was named an AWS Serverless Hero, and spent more than five years as a Developer Advocate at AWS, rising to Principal. Gunnar sits between the people who build the tools and the people who use them, making both sides better by bringing community feedback back to product teams. *** Whether you are building serverless applications, distributed workflows, AI agents, event-driven systems, or just want to understand where Lambda Durable Functions fit in the AWS ecosystem, this meetup is for you. Join us for deep technical content, practical demos, great speakers, and the usual AWS community networking.

I have been studying the question of "self" online with Prof. Ellie Anderson and so I thought a prompt on the "self" might be interesting. Full confession: I had Claude create this prompt and I like it, so here goes: Imagine a thought experiment that merges two classic puzzles: > You undergo a procedure, performed neuron by neuron, in which every biological component of your brain is replaced with a functionally identical synthetic substitute. At each step, your behavior, memories, and personality remain unchanged. When the last neuron is swapped, is the consciousness experiencing the world still you? And — more pressingly — was there ever a continuous "you" to begin with? ### Questions to Wrestle With * If consciousness is purely physical, does the *gradual* nature of the replacement matter, or is it equivalent to being destroyed and rebuilt? * Could there be a "self" without continuity of experience — even moment to moment, while you sleep? On a more practical level, consider the simpler case first: **hemispherectomy** patients — people who have had an entire cerebral hemisphere surgically removed — often retain a strong sense of personal identity and continuity. This suggests "you" are not rigidly tied to specific physical material. But does that vindicate the synthetic neuron case, or merely show that identity is more *flexible* than we thought — not that it can survive *complete* substrate replacement? I used Claude so I could get this out today and let everyone have some time to consider it. Hope to see you at the Oracle. Sorry about the location change two weeks ago. That's what I get for trusting local weather predictions!

This is an in-person meeting. Did you know that unwanted emotions like loneliness, sadness, hopelessness, anger, fear, anxiety, or feelings of irritation don’t just fall on you for no reason. They are not random occurrences that simply happen to people's minds. They are definitely not chemical imbalance in your brain due to some nebulous chemical reactions by chance. Your negative emotions are the symptoms of the painful experiences that you have which are not healed, and which are still affecting you. The effects of these painful experiences are exacerbated by the pressures or difficulties of the other problems in your life. For instance, let's say you are already carrying a huge load on your back, then you cannot take on much more, but, let's say something else happens to you, such as the difficulties from the Pandemic, then the resultant combined weight on you can take you over the edge, kind of like the straw that break the camel's back. When this happens, people's attention usually goes to the straw that was added, but actually the majority of the weight had come from the huge load that were already there, holding a person down and causing a person issues. So how do you remove the huge load that was already there? How do you lighten them up? Is it possible to get rid of them? That is what this meeting will be all about. Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life. Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to this local event. We look forward to seeing you there. This group is created by the Dianetics and Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.

We will have our certified mediums available and you can receive 3 10-minute readings for $20. To keep you safe, we will be following all CDC and Health Dept. guidelines at our psychic fair today.

Why are we unhappy? Where does emotional pain come from? Studies show that people who suffer from long-term emotional pain have painful experiences in their lives that were never fully resolved in their mind. In other words, there were issues in the past that were not completely dealt with. This can include abuse in childhood, breakups, divorce, death of a loved one, to name a few. How do you know whether you have gotten over something painful? Here is an easy test: Do you still have attention on what had happened to you? For instance, do you still find yourself thinking about something painful that you went through? If you are, then you are not over it. In fact, in severe cases, people find themselves playing a "tape" in their mind over and over again. So how do you heal from your past? How do you stop the "tape" playing in your mind? In this meeting, you will learn a technique to help you with that. Come join us! Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to this local event. We look forward to seeing you there. This group is created by the Dianetics and Scientology life improvement center.
