Green Paddling 🚣🏻♀️ June edition
**READ THROUGH BEFORE SIGNING-UP (and ensure you check your meet-up chat regularly :-) )**
Can't think about a better way to wrap up the week then kayaking around the city channels.
GreenKayak, a NGO dedicated to raise awareness to ocean pollution, makes few (open) kayaks available across the city to paddle and help collecting waste floating in the water.
Open kayaks are typically easier to manovre than other types, and do not require EPP2/EPP3 patents.
I booked 2 double kayaks for 4 ppl in total.
It is possible to use the facilities at Kayak Republic free of charge: restrooms, lockers and showers.
**REQUIREMENT**
\- Safety first \- Need to be able to swim comfortably
\- Waterproof gear preferable
\- Sun lotion and sunglasses
\- Change of clothes in case yours get a bit wet during paddling
\- Towel\, if you want to shower or just in case
**COST**
Unfortunately, due to the frequent last minute cancellation last summer, it was challenging backfilling participants with short or no notice, and it was very disrespectful to the group and GreenKayak NGO.
**To reserve your spot, please transfer 150 kr. to my mobilepay 25717293**. The amount will be returned to you if you show up on time, or the event is cancelled for other reasons; **this remains a free non-profit event**.
The kayak rental is free of charge provided that:
\- we are able to pick\-up some waste during our paddling activity
\- we share our experience on the So\.Me \#GreenKayak
**AGENDA**
16:50- Meet up - please be on time 🙂
16:50-17:00 Briefing and getting ready
17-00-18:45 Paddling around Copenhagen channels and return to the start point
18:45-19:00 Return the equipment to Kayak Republic
**DISCOMFORT LEVEL** \- 3/5

Dancing Night Out 🌈🪩
Rainbow Group Copenhagen goes dancing 🌈🪩💃Let’s get out and go out together to enjoy some dancing at Never Mind 💫
Before we are going to meet at Oscars Bar&Cafe to have time to get to know each other and - if you want - to enjoy some drinks. 🍷🍻🍶
ℹ️‼️Some important info:
This event is part of the Rainbow Group Copenhagen. We aim to create a safe space, especially for the queer community we are part of.
This means zero tolerance for discrimination, including racism, ableism, ageism, sexism, transphobia, homophobia, queerphobia, or cultural disrespect.

📍Meeting Point: https://maps.app.goo.gl/2yTbCmbsKjVt85fq9?g_st=ic
28 KM - Friday after work + Saturday - Loop around Höör
Hey Randoms,
This is slightly less demanding than our average hike. The intention is to make it more inclusive for the less experienced, or the less hardcore.
And plenty of time for cosy camp life too!
We meet Friday afternoon, get a train from CPH Central. We get off in the town of Höör and hike a loop north of the town - that's in Sweden.
Standard Randoms rules - check'em out in the group description.
Destination train station: Höör.
Train: Öresundståg 1096
Meeting time: 16:00
Meeting place: On the platform, by the train
Train departure: 16:14
Platform: Check the information board.
As usual, the Skånetrafiken mobile app is recommended for tickets.
Friday: 10 KM
Saturday: 18 KM
We might be able to find a campsite with a shelter on Friday night. But the shelter might not be available = bring a tent, hammock, tarp, or other shelter/sleep system.
Copenhagen Co-Work & Coffee
**Join us at Copenhagen Co-working & Coffee!**
If you are a Remote worker or Entrepreneur of any kind, let's connect and co-work together! It's sometimes easier to focus & more enjoyable to work when others around you are working too!
Anyone and everyone is welcome to join, bring a friend, and let's get some work done!
Get 10% off at Espresso house if your part of the meetup 😁
Speed Portrait & Cocktails
Stop by and meet people in a positive and save space, very Friday at 8:30 pm just after our abstract workshop we start our **Speed Portrait and Cocktails event.** Before continuing your journey into the vibrant Copenhagen we invite you for a creative stop, to develop some quality interaction and create a truly hygge atmosphere in an artistic space.
Set in a contemporary art gallery turned into a creative studio for the night, our **Speed portrait & cocktails** event blends with the city night life adding to Copenhagen artistic vibe and cozy atmosphere. An event that mixes caribbean hospitality, minimal aesthetic and Copenhagen coziness. As well we offer locals and temporary locals an artistic retreat from the intensity of the city.
Note: Some materials are free but not the drinks.

✨ Feel slightly healthier for one morning
And yes — if people are up for it, we’ll likely grab brunch or coffee together afterward ☕🥐

A Rabid Dane
Enjoys the Pain!
Rabid Danes Hash House Harriers is a non-competitive running social club with a focus on running/jogging/hiking in nature. Trails always cover a distance of 15 km or more. Hash traditions apply: we do not know in advance where the trail will lead us, but we will figure it out together.
Walkers and joggers start at 10:00.
Runners start at 11:00.
Unlike our weekly runs, everyone follows the same trail, there are no shortcuts.
The lunch is usually served between 13-13:45h
The run fee of 75 DKK covers all the food and drinks after the run (picnic style), including beer/water and hot cocoa.
Remember to bring a bag with spare clothes for after the run. You don't have to carry the bag during the run, as there will be a bag car.
We look forward to seeing you!

Café Philo Copenhagen
We meet on Saturdays late mornings to have a casual, meaningful conversation on topics of interest to everyone chosen on the spot by majority voting. So please feel free to propose your own topic!
Everyone is welcome to talk, but if you prefer to just join and listen, that is perfect too.
As the contacted cafés usually only give reservations to eating guests, it is very welcome if you order something to eat during our stay. This is however not mandatory.
This event is in English.
The exact place can still change.

Shut Up & Write!™ Copenhagen
Join us for an hour of writing! We’ve discovered that it’s strikingly helpful to write with other writers. See if it’s true for you at our Copenhagen Shut Up & Write! sessions.
Be it a book, blog, script, essay, dissertation, résumé, melody, poem, or just plain work stuff, you are invited to write it with us. No one will see what you've written or give you unsolicited advice. Instead of just thinking about writing, come and get some real writing done.
SCHEDULE:
- 15 minutes of hellos and getting settled; maybe some quick intros.
- Then, the timer starts! : writing for 1 hour.
- After the hour is up... chat / take off / keep writing, if you're on a roll.
OPTIONAL SOCIALIZING happens once the hour of writing is complete. Writing can be very solitary... connecting (and sometimes even commiserating) with other writers is a cool thing.
It's best to be on time, but BEING LATE IS ALSO OKAY: just show up and get settled, then check in with us after the session. (We’ll be the ones with the small Shut Up & Write! sign.) If you were on time, please be willing to make room for the friendly latecomer.
What Should I Bring?
Whatever you need to be able to write!
Bring earbuds/earplugs if you want to block the cafe’s overhead music or the occasional conversation by other patrons.

Smart Search + AI: An Outcome-Driven Journey from IDP to a Suite of AI
Over a billion documents processed. Millions of Veterans impacted. Hundreds of thousands of employee hours saved. Faster decisions. Greater accuracy. More benefits in the hands of our disabled Veterans.
We created Smart Search, the world’s largest consumer of Amazon Textract, right when GenAI began reshaping what’s possible. Since then, we’ve built a suite of AI‑driven solutions that transform this data into real, measurable outcomes—accelerating benefits decisions for our Nation’s Veterans.
Join us for a focused conversation on how an outcome‑driven approach to AI is helping us boost accuracy, streamline workflows, and deliver faster results for those who have served.
This is a follow up to the AWS re:Invent 2023 "Intelligent Document Processing with Gen AI for Public Sector" presentation.

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.
