Deep Conversation - Question Chosen in Session
How do we connect to people? What is so great about being different? Is love selfless? Should we be dreamers or realists? What values are we losing? When are we at our best? Does childhood ever end? Is morality a matter of convenience? What makes a person beautiful?
Such questions, and many more, await you Sunday at Sister's Cafe (second floor) . After introductions we will collect questions from the group participants, choose one by voting then discuss it for an hour. Then most of us stay for drinks and bizarre conversations :-).

Picnic & Games 🌳🧺🏸 🎲 (TBC🌤️)
What's up Friends! 👋
If the weather gods feel generous 🌤️, we’re going full park mode: picnic 🧺🌳, games, laughs… and a touch of chaos ✨
‼️If not - we'll switch to the usual indoor format at Le Pantin or Café Leopold PDN.
📍Where
Park Cinquantenaire, Tour de Tournai 🏰 (that little castle-looking thingy in the park).
Can’t find us? 🤷♀️ Just ping me here.
💡 The Idea
Chill picnic: bring your own drinks 🧃, snacks 🥪🍓, blanket, and games 🎲🏸 (sharing always appreciated 😋).
We’ll break into small groups depending on the vibe: games, chats, sports.
⏱️ Timing
We kick off at 14:00. Stay as long as you like.
Joining later? Just drop a message in the chat in case we decide to move 😊.
🎲🏸 Games
All games are welcome in the park - boards, cards, balls, random stuff! I’ll have a few with me, but feel free to add your own favorites too.
🚦On the waitlist but really want to join? Or got any questions? Just DM me.
📢 Extra info might drop in the group chat or via DM 💬. Check your messages 👀 the day before so you don't miss anything critical 🙄.
🐈⬛ The Friends Code:
👉 Games we play = group decision
👉 Smaller groups = cozier vibes
👉 Got a favorite game? Suggest it or show up with it
👉 Can't make it? Cancel on time so someone on the waitlist can grab your spot
👉 If you’re on the waitlist, showing up is at your own risk 😄
See you there, folks 😉

Here, there will be no subject set in advance, instead **all participants are welcome to join at any point and at any level, from beginner to expert**. Beginners will be guided though the basics (C programming, how to use measurement tools, soldering, PCB design, etc…) and can get advice on what tools and kits to start with, others can come with their own projects to get help or share some knowledge.
## Requirements
* Bring your own laptop (Windows, Linux or Mac)
* Any microcontroller/dev kit to develop your project(s). If you are a beginner and don’t know what to buy, come and we’ll find the best starter kit for you !

Qi Gong in the forest
Meet up at the parking des enfants noyer. https://share.google/8lAn73Y8zJUk2VLKp
We will start with a walk in the forest to find a suitable and quiet clearing for the group. Although walking is already a good warm up, we will also invite the body to warm up using Qi Gong flowing movements, before getting acquainted with some Qi Gong forms. We will then practise these beautiful natural movements in a meditative series and enjoy the energy of the forest. As a Qi Gong teacher and practitioner, I think Qi Gong in the forest is a wonderful experience, I hope to see you, everyone is welcome. Numbers limited to 10 so please reserve.

Badminton Sunday Social
Join us for some friendly Badminton games- all levels welcome!
IMPORTANT- in order to secure your place you’ll need to both book a spot on Meetup AND pay €8 by Friday morning. This is to make sure we can cancel courts if demand isn’t there, and make sure we’re being fair to people on the waitlist.
Refunds will only be possible after Friday AM if another player is definitely able to take your spot
Always worth joining our W’app group as well for faster, often better, updates!

Tour de Panne (22km)
On Sunday it is going to be hot, so I suggest a hike at the coast, where temperatures will probably be milder.
We will start early to avoid the heat and the crowds on the train. Once in De Panne, the first part of the hike will go through the dunes into the direction of France. Halfway we cross the border into the coastal village Bray-Dunes, where we will have a lunch break. After lunch we return to De Panne along the beach. As usual we end our hike with a beer or an ice cream.
Important:
As the number of participants is limited, it is important that you manage your registration responsibly: only sign up if you really intend to come and cancel as soon as you know you can’t (this also goes for people on the waiting list!). We will try to keep close to an average speed of about 5 km/h. We will walk mainly on unpaved roads. I’ve not tested this track beforehand, so it’s possible that there are some mistakes in the planning.
●●You can find the track here:
https://loc.wiki/t/269936362?wa=sc
●●Meeting point:
We meet at the railway station of De Panne at 10h08. If you start from Brussels-Central, you should take train IC 3630 direction De Panne at 7h45. I am living in Ghent, so I will get on that train later. Let's try to find each other in the front car of the train.
●● Train tickets:
Return ticket to De Panne
●● Back to Brussels:
In De Panne there is one direct train back to Brussels every hour.
●● Specifics:
Distance: ca 22km
Elevation gain: a few sandy dunes
Net walking time: ca 5hours
Weather forecast: Looks great for the moment.
In the unlikely case of too bad weather, we may cancel a hike, even few hours before the event. If this must happen, we will of course update the Meetup website and send out an email to those registered. So it is important to have access to either the meetup website or your emails.
●● What to bring:
* Comfortable hiking clothes &shoes
* rain gear (just in case)
* water + food for the breaks
* sun cream
* Compeed for blisters
* some small money for drinks
●● Basic rules:
Please RSVP only if you really intend to come. And if your plans change, update your RSVP asap, even hours before the walk. This is basic courtesy towards others. Repeated late cancellations are not well considered (at all). No-shows are even worse.
Do not show up for a hike unless you are on the “going” list. People with the "go-with-the-flow" label are only moved from the waitlist 24 hours before the hike. I give you the label "go-with-the-flow" if you did not show up in one of my hikes before, or if you canceled for one of these hikes less than 24 hours in advance without a good reason.
●● Acknowledgement of member responsibility and release of liability:
You are responsible for yourself and should be fit enough if you want to take part. As the participation in the events is strictly voluntary and you freely choose to join, it is the responsibility of individuals participating to ensure that they are fit enough and have adequate coverage to protect themselves. By signing up for this event, you agree to release the organisers from any responsibility and liability. Moreover, the organisers aren't tour operators, so they don't feel obliged to answer to every text message or email!
Afterwork session: Brass Birmingham
***Brass: Birmingham*** is an economic strategy game sequel to Martin Wallace's 2007 masterpiece, *Brass*. *Brass: Birmingham* tells the story of competing entrepreneurs in Birmingham during the industrial revolution between the years of 1770 and 1870.
It offers a very different story arc and experience from its predecessor. As in its predecessor, you must develop, build and establish your industries and network in an effort to exploit low or high market demands. The game is played over two halves: the canal era (years 1770-1830) and the rail era (years 1830-1870). To win the game, score the most VPs. VPs are counted at the end of each half for the canals, rails and established (flipped) industry tiles.
Each round, players take turns according to the turn order track, receiving two actions to perform any of the following actions (found in the original game):
1. **Build** \- Pay required resources and place an industry tile\.
2. **Network** \- Add a rail / canal link\, expanding your network\.
3. **Develop** \- Increase the VP value of an industry\.
4. **Sell** \- Sell your cotton\, manufactured goods and pottery\.
5. **Loan** \- Take a £30 loan and reduce your income\.
Ceramics Workshop "Fall in Love with Clay: Handleless Cup + Saucer!" 💫
Beginner-friendly lesson (In English).
In this 3 hour session, you will be given 500g of clay and Anna will teach you how to make handleless cup + saucer of your dreams.
**Lesson themes:** Hand-build ceramic dishes, learn to model clay, work with underglaze, paint your pieces.
The instructor will do final glazing and both kiln firings for you. Your creation will be ready for pickup within 5 weeks after the lesson. You will even be able to use it for your next breakfast!
Lesson is followed by 30 min networking session with drinks included.
The price is 80 euro.

What Causes Your Roller Coasters in Life?
Do you sometimes feel like you do well in life then something happens and you slide back, never quite getting ahead.
At this Meetup you'll find out how to identify what actually causes the lows, the highs and everything in between. More importantly you’ll get the secret of how to gain control over your life so the highs are higher and the lows go away.
Wouldn’t it be nice to stop the wild roller coaster ride for good? Or at least make it a fun roller coaster ride, with more ups and downs.
There is a hidden factor that will be going over and you’re going to be quite surprised what it is and how much it affects your life.

Customize the IDE: Building Extensions for Visual Studio Code - Alan Barber
**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you.
The building address is 4450 Bridge Park
The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400
You will need to scan your ID at the door to get a visitor badge.
**Abstract**
*Customize the IDE: Building Extensions for Visual Studio Code*
Visual Studio Code is one of the most widely used development environments today, and much of its flexibility comes from its extension ecosystem. Extensions allow developers to customize the editor with new features, integrations, and workflow improvements tailored to their needs.
In this session, we’ll cover what extensions are and the different types available, including full extensions written in TypeScript or JavaScript, along with lighter-weight extensions such as color themes, language packs, language support, code snippets, and keymaps. We’ll also look at practical reasons a developer might create an extension, from automating repetitive tasks to adding custom tooling.
The session includes a hands-on walkthrough of creating a new extension, testing it locally, and understanding the basic project structure. We’ll close with a brief overview of how extensions are packaged and published to the Visual Studio Marketplace and other distribution options.
