Consciousness

This meetup is for foreigners, expats, and newcomers who want to practice Czech in a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere. We will speak mostly in simple Czech, but beginners are welcome too. The goal is to gain confidence, improve your speaking, and meet new people. Come for conversation, tea or coffee, and a cozy community feel. It's free in community centre U Studánky 15.Praha 7 Organised by Diakonia.

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 🙂

Filozofování o životě a o všem ostatním pro všechny, bez vstupného a bez přihlášky: Co si přejete, s čím si lámete hlavu, co Vás nenechá spát, o čem dumáte, o čem sníte, co Vám vrtá hlavou, čeho se bojíte, na co vzpomínáte, o čem přemýšlíte? Nenechte tyto věci jen pro sebe, zkuste rozhovor s jinými lidmi. U nás nejde jen o to, si popovídat, o to taky, ale to máte i jinde. U našeho stolu se pokusíme, spolu *filozofovat*. Nejdříve se dohodneme, jaké téma budeme diskutovat, a pak se do toho pustíme, budeme přemýšlet, rozmýšlet, promýšlet a zamýšlet se, až se nám z toho bude točit hlava, přitom nám budou podporou filozofové všech věků, abychom jí neztratili, tu hlavu. Ani byste nevěřili, jak filozofie může být osvěžující…

Hola tod@s! Tenemos otra reunion este viernes en Cafedu! Sois muy bienvenidos!

Join us for the first Symposium of the season to usher in the coming of Spring! 🌞🌻🌳 In antiquity, a symposium was a gathering of friends who came together to recline around a shared table, where wine and conversation flowed freely into the night. Together, they would choose a topic and take turns speaking, listening, and laughing—guided by the rhythms of drink and dialogue. Inspired by this tradition, our Symposium has no set theme. It's an invitation to come together with other curious minds, to offer up questions or ideas, and to vote together on where to begin. Whether you're hungry for connection or simply seeking space to speak and be heard, you're warmly welcomed to join the conversation. Symposium will meet in parks throughout Prague, embracing the sunshine and pleasant weather while we have it. Bring a blanket or something to sit on. There’s no cost to join, but please bring a snack or drink to share, if you're able. Most of all, bring a curious mind and a willingness to learn from the insight of others. Feel free to bring a friend or two--also, children and friendly dogs are welcome! \*\*\* If the weather doesn't cooperate, we'll try to find an alternate venue—so keep an eye on the event chat or your email for updates. Also, despite the origins of the Symposium, our goal is not necessarily to get drunk and the organizer would encourage you not to come with that sole purpose in mind. :) The first 45 minutes of the event will be dedicated to simply getting to know one another, and we highly encourage you to join for this part. We will then vote whether to continue free conversation, to join together in a single conversation, or to split up into multiple groups. Afterwards, you’re welcome to stay or follow onto any spontaneous activity that unfolds. A note on attendance: If you need to cancel, please do so at least a few days in advance and update your RSVP accordingly. This helps honor the host’s efforts and makes space for others who would like to attend. Repeated last-minute cancellations or no-shows may result in being placed on the waitlist for future events.

As many of you already know [1touch.io](http://1touch.io%2A%2A/) has joined Everpure to combine its AI-driven data discovery and classification capabilities with Everpure’s global scale, accelerating the delivery of next-generation data management solutions. This meetup will be special! **Speaker:** **[Ashish Gupta](https://www.linkedin.com/in/ashishgupta2025/)** - CEO and President of [1touch.io](http://1touch.io/) Ashish drives a bold vision to redefine how enterprises discover, understand, and secure sensitive data in the age of AI. A dynamic and highly regarded technology leader, he brings more than two decades of experience scaling high-growth companies across cybersecurity, enterprise software, and data infrastructure. Prior to joining [1touch.io](http://1touch.io/), Ashish served as CEO of Bugcrowd, where he accelerated the company’s growth, strengthened its market position, and expanded its platform to meet the evolving demands of modern security teams. His earlier leadership roles at global technology companies including Microsoft, Infoblox, Genesys, Actian, and Vidyo reflect a consistent track record of building innovative products, leading high-performing teams, and delivering impactful go-to-market strategies. He now joins Everpure as the General Manager of Data Management. **Talk:** Ashish will talk about why, in today’s AI world, the quality and structure of your data directly impact how well your models actually perform, and why many organizations are still limited by the way their data is set up. He’ll break down why traditional systems fall short and introduce knowledge graphs as a critical foundation for modern AI - connecting data through relationships, not just storing it in isolated tables. Instead of fragmented datasets, you get a connected view: customers linked to purchases, products tied to categories, and patterns that AI can actually understand and act on. You’ll see how this approach brings real-world context into your data, enabling smarter use cases like better recommendations, stronger fraud detection, and more meaningful insights. Ashish will also explain how adding a semantic layer transforms raw data into actionable intelligence, helping AI systems make more accurate predictions by understanding how things relate, not just what they are. If you're working on AI (or planning to) this session will show you why this isn’t just an upgrade, it’s the foundation for making AI actually work. **Time Agenda:** 17:30–18:00 – Doors open and registration with snacks and beer 18:00–19:00 – Talk 19:00–20:00 – Networking time 20:00 – Doors close

FULL - do not register! We will meet at Café Místo in Dejvice, with a small group (4 - 8) of foreigners living in Prague and Czechs who have lived abroad and miss an international environment. I’ll be there a few minutes early, so just look for a small group speaking English. If you don’t see us, you can ask the staff. If you sign up and can’t make it, please update your RSVP. If there are already 8 attendees registered, please do not sign up. We are looking forward to meeting you and having coffee together. Please join if you are 35+ and comfortable communicating in English.

**AI Prompting Essentials** *Learn how to talk to AI and actually get what you want.* In this hands-on workshop we'll explore the essentials of prompting: how to structure your requests, get more useful outputs and make AI work for you in your everyday life and work.

**The future of software development isn't just "assisted" - it’s agentic!** Join us at the Rohlik Group headquarters for an evening dedicated to the next frontier of Engineering. We are thrilled to host the team from Devin.ai - the creators of the world's first AI software engineer, and Duvo.ai - the pioneers of AI-native engineering workflows, alongside our own tech leaders. This is a unique opportunity to peek under the hood of how autonomous agents are actually being used to build, ship, and scale software in 2026. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- 🎤 **Talks Line-up** **Agentic Coding in Rohlik: Our Journey to 70% AI-Generated Code** * **Michal Kecera** \| VP of Engineering\, Platform & AI\, Rohlik Group How do you move an entire engineering organization from manual coding to a state where 70% of the codebase is AI-generated? Michal will share the raw, unfiltered journey of Rohlik’s transition. He’ll cover the architectural shifts required, the cultural hurdles, and a roadmap of what happens when the "boring" code writes itself. **The Agentic SDLC: Building Devin with Devin** * **Ciarán Deasy** \| Forward Deployed Engineer \| Devin\.ai It’s meta, it’s mind-bending, and it’s the future. Ciaran will dive deep into how the team at Devin.ai uses their own autonomous engineer to build... Devin itself. This talk goes beyond simple autocomplete, we’ll explore the **Agentic Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC)** and how global enterprises are leveraging Devin to solve complex engineering tasks that were previously thought "human-only." **Pioneering Agentic Process Automation** * **Marek Paris** \| Co\-Founder \| Duvo\.ai Marek will bring his expertise from the front lines of Duvo.ai to discuss the product development and deployment. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- **What to bring:** Curiosity & questions A readiness to challenge assumptions and learn something new \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- **What can you also look forward to:** It wouldn’t be a proper meetup without great pizza & cold Pilsner Urquell on tap. Come hungry — for knowledge, fun and carbs. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- **When the magic happens:** 17:30 Doors boot-up 18:00 First talk goes live 20:00 Talks end, networking and beer starts 22:00 Event ends \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- **Can't make it personally? Don't you worry, we'll record this Meetup, so don't hesitate to check [our YouTube channel for recording](https://www.youtube.com/@RohlikGroup).** **By attending this meetup, participants agree to being recorded and give consent to the publication of the recording on our YouTube channel.**

**Welcome to Drunken Philosophy** a casual, curious social discussion **Optional topic for this meetup: What's up with all the AI hate?** A recent survey found that 74% of Americans have a negative view of AI, and I want to know why. Come out and debate whether AI is good or bad. My hot take: a labor-saving tool that could potentially help cure cancer gets called dangerous because it might raise unemployment or cause a speculative investment bubble, that tells you a lot more about capitalism and the economic system we live under than it does about the tool itself. As a computer programmer, I think AI is a wonderful tool that has increased my productivity by at least an order of magnitude. I'd go so far as to say Claude Code is the best tool I have ever used. Debate me and name a better one. Is AI potentially dangerous? Yes, but so are a lot of tools. Chainsaws. Steam engines (early ones would occasionally explode and kill everyone in the room). Do you think cavemen sat around debating whether fire could be used as a weapon or for self-harm, and decided not to discover it? I have two friends who hate AI for opposite reasons: one thinks it's a fad and not useful, and the other thinks it's going to take over everything and cause human extinction. Come out tonight, have a friendly debate, and make some friends. No lectures. Friendly crowd. Drop in for one drink and stay if it's fun.

Feeling down? Sometimes depressed? Can't focus? Negativity & stress? Recent losses? Creativity in career and personal life hindered by mental blocks? Sometimes we never fully recover from traumatic experiences. Whether it was yesterday, last week or a year ago, traumatic experiences - a loss of a loved one, losing a job, a breakup - can leave you scarred. You talk about it and feel a little better, but it never goes away. After you hang up the phone, it's still there; the sadness, the cloud, the over-thinking, the worry, the guilt. You try to focus, but you're blocked. You try to look forward into new experiences, new relationships but a cloud is hanging over you, casting a shadow on what you once considered a bright, cheerful future. What happened to your courage? Your strength of character? You're 'why not' attitude? Whoever said 'time heals' must have had a special time machine, because after weeks, months, years, you're wondering - when exactly does that kick in? Sometimes it seems like drinking or drugs are the way to go. But they wear off, and now the problem is still there with added side effects from the drugs. At this free local Meetup event we will talk about: * What causes grief, anxiety and depression to become chronic. * Is it possible to regain your joy and happiness even after traumatic experiences? * How to break away from negativity and focus on the future * What are the steps to take to get control of your mind and your emotions? Learn about a safe, gentle, do-it-yourself counseling that can be done in the comfort of your own home. Let's explore safe, effective solutions for healing from traumatic experiences. Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to the event. We look forward to seeing you there. This group is sponsored by the Dianetics & Scientology Life Improvement Center.

Communication is everything in life! You are only as successful as your ability to communicate. \- What if you could confidently talk to anyone? \- What if you had the ability to calmly control every conversation? \- What if you could close that sale\, ask for that date\, make new friends\, repair problematic relationships\, get that raise\, or effortlessly express any idea with confidence? You can! The secret to success relies on your ability or inability to effectively communicate. Attend a free seminar and gain a better ability to communicate. 1266 Dublin Road, Columbus, OH 43215 Hosted by the Church of Scientology of Central Ohio For more information, contact Rhiannon, the Event Host at 614-221-5024
