Per il mese di Marzo accogliamo nuovamente un ospite speciale, a un anno esatto dall'ultimo intervento fatto per noi. Esponente di spicco del movimento Agile ed XP in italia, membro storico del gruppo di *eXtreme Programming Milano* : **Matteo Vaccari**. Portandoci *"Coding with AI: the last 3 month"* ci racconta le novità che ha esplorato e sperimentato negli ultimi mesi sul coding con l'AI. \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- **Abstract** La programmazione assistita dall'IA si sta evolvendo rapidamente. Negli ultimi mesi sono emerse due tendenze: lo spec-driven development, ovvero la stesura di piani dettagliati prima della implementazione, e l'harness engineering, ovvero l'utilizzo di test, linter e controlli automatizzati per mantenere l'IA sulla strada giusta. Parlerò di questi trend e della nostra esperienza recente applicandoli a una codebase reale dove vogliamo (a) non scrivere mai codice a mano e (b) ottenere codice di alta qualità **Bio** Extreme programmer, Thoughtworker, trainer, coach and software developer. Deeply interested in what makes teams and companies successful beyond expectations! Any opinion expressed are my own. \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- **Dove ci troviamo?** Anche questo mese siamo ospiti di [Thoughtworks Italia](https://www.thoughtworks.com/it-it/about-us/Chi-Siamo-Thoughtworks) nella sua sede milanese in Via Filippo Turati, 30: * 18:45 Ritrovo e networking * 19:15 Inizio attività * 21:00 Saluti e birra/cena vicino alla location per chi vuole rimanere

**Un Viaggio di 3 Notti verso la Presenza, la Chiarezza e la Connessione Interiore.** Questo ritiro è un invito a rallentare, respirare e tornare a te stesso. Svolto in un ambiente tranquillo immerso nella natura vicio a Roma, questo ritiro di evoluzione interiore di 3 notti offre uno spazio sicuro e accogliente per l’esplorazione interiore, l’integrazione emotiva e una riconnessione significativa. È pensato per chi sente il bisogno di fermarsi, ascoltare dentro di sé e riallinearsi con ciò che conta davvero. Il nostro lavoro si basa sul Metodo di EVOLUZIONE INTERIORE — un processo gentile ma profondo che combina consapevolezza emotiva, pratiche incarnate, auto-indagine, presenza relazionale e integrazione guidata. Sono disponibili strumenti ancestrale opzionali, ma non sono mai al centro. Il cuore del ritiro è lo spazio che creiamo insieme, dove chiarezza e comprensione possono emergere in modo naturale. Invece di cercare risposte all’esterno, questo ritiro ti accompagna a riconnetterti con la tua intelligenza interiore, permettendo che comprensione, liberazione e direzione nascano da dentro. Questa esperienza è per chiunque si senta chiamato a uscire dal rumore della vita quotidiana e a immergersi in pochi giorni di semplicità, onestà e contatto autentico — con sé stesso, con gli altri e con la natura. **La prenotazione include:** • Alloggio e pensione completa, con opzione vegana o vegetariana. • La partecipazione ai laboratori di approfondimento con i nostri facilitatori, che servono anche come preparazione prima della sessione notturna. • Le integrazioni di gruppo del mattino per condividere l’esperienza o ampliare la comprensione di ciò che sta accadendo nel tuo processo. • Una sessione con strumenti ancestrali ogni notte di ritiro (se vuoi farne più di una durante il giorno di ritiro, si considera come una sessione aggiuntiva) con l’accompagnamento della nostra equipe di facilitatori. • Appoggio prima, durante e dopo il ritiro • Sessione integrativa online post ritiro. **Informazioni in breve:** Per info sull’evento per favore contattaci direttamente ai riferimenti qui sotto 🙏 * **Data dell’evento:** 26 - 29 marzo 2026 📞 **Contatti:** +39 327 540 8329 (WhatsApp)

Sono proprietario di un bar e dispongo di un tavolo da biliardo semi-professionale. Sto creando un gruppo WhatsApp di giocatori amatoriali di biliardo americano pool/carambola, per la maggior parte debuttanti. Cerco persone disposte a unirsi al gruppo per giocare e divertirsi nel tempo libero, il pomeriggio oppure la sera in ogni giorno. Per stimolare l'impegno di ogni giocatore, abbiamo pattuito che il vincitore di ogni "mini-torneo" organizzato nei vari giorni giochi gratis e non paghi la tariffa di tempo per il periodo di gioco (un'ora di gioco costa 10€, ma viene di volta in volta frazionata in base al periodo di gioco effettivo). Il locale si trova in zona nord di Milano, stazione Greco-Pirelli, università Bicocca. Chiunque dovesse essere davvero interessato a partecipare e unirsi al mio gruppo, non esiti a contattarmi. Cerco persone serie e disposte solamente a divertirsi, senza puntare mazzette grazie mille. Antonio

🍻 **Join Us for Tech Startups in the Pub - Milan Edition!** 🍻 Hey there! 🌟 We'd love for you to join us for our next edition of *Tech Startups in the Pub,* this time in Milan, Italy! The event is scheduled for **6:30 PM local Italian time**. The platform does not allow us to change the time zone, so we can only create events with the GMT time, thus you will see the invitation for 7:30 PM, but you definitely want to come earlier. It's a relaxed evening at The O'Connell Irish Pub, and run by Volodymyr. We have been running for 3.5 years in London and we are excited to now run our monthly events in Milan as well, welcoming new folks to the community. Whether you're a tech founder, an enthusiast, a budding entrepreneur, or simply curious about the tech scene, you'll fit right in. This isn't about panels or pitching, just good old-fashioned networking with like-minded people over a drink on a Thursday evening. Important information about the location and time. **It is in the ZTL zone**, so please do not come by car. Please use public transport or walk. **House Rules:** * Find Volodymyr to introduce yourself so we can welcome you properly. The pub knows we are coming, so you should be able to find us easily. * No hard selling or heavy pitching. This is a chill, friendly after-work get-together. * Not drinking? No worries! You're more than welcome to come hang out and enjoy the conversation. Mark your calendar and come down for some fun tech talk. See you there!

**🍻 SOCIAL DRINKING GAMES** Ice-breakers? Boring. We prefer cups, rules you’ll forget in 5 minutes, and instant friendships. Lose the game, take a sip. Win the game, take a sip anyway. ⋯⋯⋯ Ostello Bello Milano Centrale - Via Lepetit 33, Milano 🎫 Posti limitati. - Ingresso gratuito tramite registrazione Ti ricordiamo che nel corso dell’evento potranno essere effettuate delle riprese di immagini fotografiche e audio-video con diritti di utilizzo ad uso esclusivo del locale. www.ostellobello.com https://www.instagram.com/ostellobello.milanocentrale/

**Limited spots!** **1\. ℹ️ This is a regular game day for CURRENT members of our volleyball team\.** **If you're NEW** and interested in joining, please reach out first, **do not RSVP.** From time to time, if we have extra space, we may invite a small number of new players to join as **guests** for that week. At the moment, the group is **at capacity**, so we are **not accepting new regular members** unless invited at a later time. **2.** Please RSVP by **Saturday** and only confirm if you can truly commit. We’re not able to accept unconfirmed drop-ins or show-ups at the court, and it’s best not to rely on the waitlist, as last-minute spots are not always possible to fill. **What to expect:** we’re a casual, low-intermediate group. Most of us have played before, but this is not a training session or a highly structured game setup. The goal is simply to have fun, stay active, and enjoy good games together. * Casual 5v5 or 4v4 * We warm up first, then teams will be assigned on court * Court: covered * Arrive 10 minutes early so we can start on time **Important:** * If you’re looking for a more competitive or structured volleyball setup, these regular games may not be the best fit. You’re welcome to organize separate sessions with others or reach out to Ellie 🤞 * Please be respectful and kind: arrive on time, rotate when asked, and keep a team-first attitude so everyone gets a good run. **About WE NEED + (MORE) PPL** We’re building a community for adults 25–50 who enjoy real, low-pressure social time. Nothing formal, show up as you are.

The first pitch is scheduled for 4:05 p.m. The gates always open an hour before the scheduled first pitch. I'm usually at the ballpark a half an hour before the scheduled first pitch. Clippers' games usually last around two and a half hours. Being a few minutes early will help us secure good seats. **Parking** I personally always like to park in the [McConnell Garage](https://www.google.com/maps/place/McConnell+Garage/@39.9685114,-83.0103938,17z/data=!4m6!3m5!1s0x88388f24145462d1:0x6238c0f0c851ab70!8m2!3d39.9692957!4d-83.0081175!16s%2Fg%2F1jkw6y27y?entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI1MTExNi4wIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3D). If nothing else is going on in the area, this should be $7. However, I've also seen it be as high as $22. I can't say for certain what it will be for this game, but once I know, I will post in the comments. Alternately, there are other lots in the area you can try which will probably be a few dollars cheaper. [Here is a map](https://img.mlbstatic.com/milb-images/image/upload/q_auto/milb/ernng44ya2xkr4wbheql) of all the garages and lots surrounding the stadium. Keep in mind that many of these are outdoor lots and your car will be out in the elements. If you decide to look for a different lot, I would mildly recommend either the Buggyworks Lot or the Broadbelt Lot, but I have never parked in either of these myself. Although it won't apply for this game, keep in mind that street parking is also free citywide in Columbus on [Sundays and holidays](https://www.columbus.gov/files/sharedassets/city/v/1/public-service/right-of-way-permit/on-street-parking-out-of-service-policy-and-procedure-final-8.15.2022-signed.pdf). **Where We'll Be** Here is a [map of the ballpark](https://img.mlbstatic.com/milb-images/image/upload/milb/qkqohbqjgtx5uwo6zkgn.pdf). We'll be sitting on Level 3 of the [Left Field Building](https://www.milb.com/columbus/ballpark/huntington-park) (aka the "AEP Power Pavilion"), which features a 110 foot bar with six open patios overlooking the field. This area is covered and will be out of any sun or rain that may transpire. If you enter the park through the Center Field Entrance (which is at the intersection of Nationwide Blvd. and Neil Ave.), there will be a door to your immediate right after you enter that leads to a staircase up into the Tower. This door is not well-marked, and if you've never been to Huntington Park before, you may wonder if you're actually allowed to go in and up the stairs. Yes, you are. We'll be on the Tower's "Level 3". I have uploaded to the Photos section of this event page, below, a picture of the sign you want look for after you ascend the stairs, so you'll know you're on the correct floor. **Tickets** Do not buy your tickets ahead of time. They will literally be twice as expensive if you buy them on Ticketmaster. Instead, go to the ticket window near the Center Field Entrance. Buy a *Standing Room Only* ticket (don't worry, you won't be standing), which will cost you a flat $8 with no other taxes or fees. These tickets never sell out, and this is the cheapest way to get into the park. **Carry-Ins** Per the team's [website](https://www.milb.com/columbus/ballpark/a-z-guide): "Soft-sided coolers are permitted in the general seating area [which is where we'll be], but not hard-sided coolers; also no alcohol, glass bottles, or cans will be permitted. SMALL bags or backpacks of food items and beverages in plastic bottles are ok. Reusable water bottles are permitted, but must be empty upon arrival. Diaper bags are allowed." I always bring a disposable plastic bottle of water and refill it as I need at the park. Bottled water at the game is something like 4 or 5 dollars. So if you want a bottle of water, I recommend bringing your own bottle instead of buying it at the park. **Food & Drink** The area we'll be in has burgers, hot dogs, salads, soft pretzels, ice cream, and other sorts of things you would expect at a baseball game. I've posted pics of the menu in the Photos section, below. The burger and fries are $14 plus tax, and they're not bad. (This is what I usually get.) The beer is *really* overpriced. It's like $9, or $20 for a pitcher. If there's some people to help me drink it, though, I'll buy a pitcher of Michelob Ultra. While we'll be on the penultimate floor of the Tower, the top floor (which has a great view, but is fully exposed to the elements) has a [Dirty Frank's](https://dirtyfranks.com/) hot dog stand. I've never gotten anything from there, though I've been told it's good. The Donatos pizza stand is also a very short walk away from where we'll be. I love Donatos, but the pizza is so expensive at the ballpark. It's like $9 for a personal-sized pepperoni. It is good, though. **Peroration** Let's (watch them) play ball!
