**Parece que ya no se pueda hacer nada sin pasar por la IA, pero si se usa como una herramienta más, permite acelerar radicalmente el desarrollo, desde el prototipado hasta el lanzamiento de webs funcionales sin necesidad de escribir todo el código a mano. En esta ocasió, veremos 10web y su nueva herramienta de Vibe for WordPress, que permite crear un WordPress con toda su infraestructura sólo con unos pocos prompts.** 10Web integra herramientas de generación AI-nativa, hosting gestionado, optimización automática y un builder basado en Elementor enriquecido con widgets profesionales, todo ello en una única plataforma. Este sistema de vibe coding permite pasar de textos descriptivos a webs completas en muy poco tiempo, combinando libre creatividad frontend con todo el backend potente de WordPress: plugins, WooCommerce, SEO, gestión de usuarios y mucho más. Este enfoque no sólo reduce drásticamente el tiempo de desarrollo, sino que democratiza el acceso a la creación web, haciendo posible que desarrolladores, agencias y creadores autonomicen proyectos con alta calidad técnica en cuestión de horas. ¿Quieres ver un nuevo enfoque de la IA para WordPress?

We begin with a question that seems almost too obvious to ask: is 2+2=4 really true? In everyday life it feels immediate—two apples and two apples make four apples. But mathematics asks a deeper question: how do we actually know something is true? One way is through proof. A proof starts from a few basic statements and rules, and step by step derives a new statement from them. The key challenge, then, is choosing the right starting points. Mathematicians eventually chose sets—simple collections of objects—as the most fundamental building blocks. From a few basic assumptions about sets, we can define numbers, define addition, and gradually build the entire structure of mathematics. Even a statement as simple as 2+2=4 can therefore be derived from these basic principles. In this session we will not focus on technical details, but on understanding the overall structure of the idea. The reasoning can be followed in simple terms, even by non-mathematicians, and it reveals something remarkable: from a small number of simple starting points, an enormous world of mathematical knowledge can be built. Along the way, we will also look at the historical path that led to this view—how mathematicians gradually refined these ideas over centuries in an intellectual quest to understand the foundations of mathematics. This session will be led by Jordi Molins. Bring wine/beer/drinks/food/snacks/whatever if you want to. **Our events fill up very quickly.

As the stillness of winter gently transitions into the awakening of spring, we are invited to return to a state of softness, presence, and renewal. This carefully curated workshop offers a refined introduction to self face massage, enriched by the subtle wisdom of Ayurvedic marma therapy. Through slow, mindful touch, we will encourage circulation, release deeply held tension, and restore a natural radiance to the face. More than a technique, this is a ritual of reconnection — supporting the skin, calming the nervous system, and nourishing inner vitality.

Buenas! (English below) Cada día aparecen formas nuevas de aprender español, (y otros idiomas) apps nuevas, métodos de gramática, IA, videos de profes explicando cosas, y están todas genial. Si te ayudan a entender más y a hablar mejor están genial. El plan de este grupo es mejorar tu español con juegos, actividades reales y ejercicios para hablar más. Con la excusa de los juegos y las actividades corregimos la mayoría de errores: Palabras difíciles, confundir pasados, preposiciones, verbos que significan muchas cosas, ser y estar en pasado, frases con dos verbos o mas, subjuntivo, expresiones coloquiales, y también los errores "culturales”: ¿De que forma usamos los españoles el idioma en diferentes situaciones? La gente que participa es (casi siempre) muy simpática, y normalmente deja reviews muy positivas de las clases. Si te cuadra el plan ven a practicar tu español y hablamos de comida, de viajes, de trabajo, de cultura, de Internet, de temas locales, de noticias y de muchas más cosas. Para participar hay una contribución de solo 10€ por persona/ clase de 2 horas (materiales incluidos, bebidas no incluidas) o de 30€ por 4 clases. Vente y hablamos. Rafa. \-\-\-\- Hi! Every day there are new ways to learn Spanish, (or any language) new apps, grammar methods, AI, teachers explaining things on videos, and they are all great. If they help you to understand more and to speak better, they are great. The main plan in this group is to improve your Spanish with games, real activities and exercises to speak more. All the games and activities are a good excuse to correct the most difficult/ frequent mistakes: Difficult words, confusing past tenses, prepositions, verbs that mean many things, ser and estar in the past, sentences with two or more verbs, subjuntive, colloquial expressions, and also “cultural" mistakes: How we, Spanish people, use the language in different situations? People participating are (almost always) very nice, and usually leave very positive reviews of the classes. If the plan fits you, come to practice your Spanish and we'll talk about food, travel, work, culture, Internet, local issues, business, news and many more things. There is a contribution to participate of only €10 per person/2-hour class (materials included, drinks not included) or €30 for 4 classes. Let´s talk. Rafa.

The inner circle consists of a small number of participants who actively discuss a topic, while those in the outer circle listen and observe. This format encourages participation from all members, as individuals from the outer circle can join the inner circle by taking an empty seat when they wish to contribute.](https://www.bing.com/ck/a?!&&p=00b4b265baa395dc4ad7b262d4d6e3b7b7c31b2195941076e51d2eca252c2d02JmltdHM9MTc2MjgxOTIwMA&ptn=3&ver=2&hsh=4&fclid=0e60c23d-2dbf-642d-0fd7-d4512c2b6597&psq=fishbowl+discussion&u=a1aHR0cHM6Ly9lbi53aWtpcGVkaWEub3JnL3dpa2kvRmlzaGJvd2xfKGNvbnZlcnNhdGlvbik&ntb=1)

The building address is 4450 Bridge Park The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400 **Abstract** Web Forms gave .NET developers a powerful abstraction for building reusable UI controls long before design systems were a thing. Web Components finally bring that same idea to the browser natively. This session explores how the Web Forms mindset translates into Custom Elements, Shadow DOM, and HTML templates. We’ll examine how Web Components enable design systems that work across frameworks, how they differ from server‑driven controls, and why they’re becoming a foundational layer for modern UI. Whether you’re maintaining legacy apps or building greenfield projects, you’ll leave with a practical understanding of how to apply familiar patterns in a modern, standards‑based way. **YouTube Link** TBA
