Brc20s, Runes and Alkanes
BRC20, Runes & Alkane tokens, and a number of other more obscure protocols, form a class of tokens which Bitcoin users compete to mint (by paying transaction fees)
Since March 2023 BRC20, Runes and Alkane tokens, have dominated Bitcoin usage, comsuming roughly 1/5 of Bitcoin Blockspace producede during this period.
And yet their impact is barely discussed and understood.
In this meetup I will share explanations, analytics and insights and discuss the history and the future of these tokens.
Are these tokens senseless spam or do they present on of the greatest unmet opportunities in the Bitcoin and Crypto space? Learn the ground facts for yourself and make up your own mind!
**About the presenter**
Antoine "The Blockspace Baron" is co-founder of Bitcoin Bay, and one of the largest inscribers of Bitcoin Blockspace in the world.

Bigger, Better, Bolder Miss Bachata & Miss Salsa
**Welcome to Miss Bachata & Miss Salsa!**
**Spring is in the air, and with it comes the promise of new beginnings, fresh energy, and the joy of connection!** As the season of renewal unfolds, we invite you to step into the rhythm of community, dance, and celebration at Miss Bachata & Miss Salsa.
My objective has always been to create a different kind of social gatheringโone that is open, non-judgmental, and safe. A place where you can meet people just like you, where socializing and dancing come together to help build community and tear down the walls that separate us. Here, we make new friends, feel a sense of belonging, and enjoy the calmness that comes from knowing we are in a safe and welcoming space.
Many times, I have been asked, โWhy host an event on Monday night?โ Many people escape on the weekend and dread Mondays when they return to work. I believe that if you dance and socialize on a Monday, you infuse your week with joy and positive energy, giving your life balance and helping you face your challenges with enthusiasm and confidence.
Weโre also thrilled to announce that our trial of advanced Bachata lessons, which began last September, has been a resounding success! Building on this momentum, weโre excited to offer an enhanced schedule for 2026. Our dance evenings will now feature three hours of classes: one hour of beginner to intermediate Bachata, one hour of advanced Bachata, and one hour of beginner to intermediate Salsa. As always, the entrance fee remains $15 for a night of 2 lessons and social dancing. For those interested in the advanced Bachata lessons, there will be an additional $5 fee.
Hereโs our updated schedule:
**Miss Bachata โ Main Ballroom**
๐ 7:00 pm โ 8:00 pm: Beginner to Intermediate Bachata Lesson (No partner required)
๐ 8:00 pm โ 12:00 am: Social Dancing
**Miss Salsa โ Round Room**
๐ 7:00 pm โ 8:00 pm: Advanced Bachata Lesson (+$5) **NEW**
๐ 8:00 pm โ 9:00 pm: Beginner to Intermediate Salsa Lesson
๐ 9:00 pm โ 12:00 am: Social Dancing

โ๏ธ Full Bar (Free Water, Beer: $5.75)
Over the past decade, organizing Latin dancing events in Mississauga has been a labor of love. Our mission has always been to foster a sense of community, proving that the connections we share are far stronger than the differences that divide us.
Loneliness is a growing concern, with over half of U.S. adults and many Canadians experiencing its effects. The COVID-19 pandemic has only heightened this issue. Harvard University's long-term study on happiness, which began in 1938, highlights the detrimental impact of loneliness on health. People with strong social connections experience slower mental and physical decline and greater overall happiness compared to those who are isolated.
Here are some key findings from the study:
๐ฟ Close ties help delay mental and physical decline more than money, fame, social class, IQ, or genetics.
๐ฟ Relationship satisfaction is a better predictor of aging well than cholesterol levels in middle age.
๐ฟ A strong sense of community improves memory function.
๐ฟ Loneliness can be as harmful to health as smoking or alcoholism.
And thereโs hope! Strengthening our relationships and supporting community initiatives can combat loneliness and build healthier, happier lives. Miss Bachata & Miss Salsa provides a wonderful opportunity to make new friends, expand your social circle, and enjoy a safe, welcoming, authentic environment. Bring your open heart and a smile, and weโll take care of the rest.

KSUG.AI x Agentic DevOps with Claude Code & Codex - Jun 11 2026
Let's learn Vibe Coding! Welcome to our [KSUG.AI Americas](https://us1.ksug.ai) meetup!
**Latest promotions** discovered by our community!
* **20%** OFF **[FinOps](https://ksug.ai/finops/?ref=meetup)** Certs Code: **KSAI_20**

The real shift is happening with agentic DevOps workflows using tools like Claude Code and the OpenAI Codex App โ systems that can reason across repositories, plan multi-step changes, modify infrastructure, and operate much closer to how real engineers actually build.
This session is designed for both beginners and practitioners.
Youโll walk away with practical patterns for:
โข workflow design
โข context management
โข infrastructure changes
โข reducing unstructured โvibe codingโ
โข building more reliable AI-assisted engineering workflows
Honestly, not using agentic tooling in DevOps today is starting to feel a bit like refusing to use the internet in 2003.
This isnโt about hype.
Itโs about leverage.
And itโs an incredible time to be a builder โ especially if you build with agents.
๐ Come by at 5:30 PM for pizza and chats.
๐ค Presentation starts at 6:00 PM.

Vibe Coding the Platform: Agentic DevOps with Claude Code & Codex
LLM chat was the warm-up.
Ask a question. Copy. Paste. Tweak.
Useful โ but capped.
The real shift is agentic DevOps workflows using tools like Claude Code and the OpenAI Codex App โ systems that can reason across repositories, plan multi-step changes, modify infrastructure, and operate closer to how real engineers build.
This session is both 101 and 201.
If youโre new to agentic tooling, youโll understand whatโs fundamentally different from chat-based usage.
If youโre already experimenting, youโll leave with practical agentic patterns for workflow design, context control, infrastructure changes, and avoiding unstructured vibe coding.
Not using agentic tooling in DevOps today is starting to feel like refusing to use the internet in 2003.
This isnโt about hype.
Itโs about leverage.
Itโs a great time to be a builder โ if you build with agents.
*Come at 5:30 pm have some pizza and chat for a bit. The presentation starts at 6:00 pm.*

Coming Out, Being Out - Peer Discussion (Weekly)
**Description**
Coming Out Being Out (COBO) is a peer discussion group that has served the LGBT community for over 15 years in downtown Toronto. We meet to share stories and opinions, challenges and triumphs at all stages of coming out and being out.
COBO participants are lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, two-spirit and questioning people. We welcome all who identify under the banner of queer sexual orientation and gender identity.
**What We Do**
\|\-\| COBO participants are often seeking to:
* Understand what experiences others have in coming out to family, friends and their respective communities.
* Develop comfort in discussing their identity with others.
* Meet others having the same experiences when it comes to living openly.
* Receive the encouragement of peers.
\|\-\| Regular topics of discussion include:
* How people choose to come out (at work, with family, with friends).
* Where to find others like us in the community.
* Challenges and triumphs in navigating family and partner relationships.
**Where & When**
* Every Wednesday from 6-8pm
* Community meeting space at Casey House - 119 Isabella St., Toronto
**How to Access the Meeting**
Registration on Meetup is not required to attend. Attendance is on a drop-in basis. The front door to our meeting space at Casey House is controlled by the main floor receptionist. To access the space when you arrive:
* Press the button to the left of the main entrance door.
* Tell the receptionist that you are there for the COBO meeting.
* You will be buzzed in and someone from our group will come to show you to the meeting.
WE LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING YOU ON WEDNESDAY!
*COBO is a community group led by non-professional peer facilitators and is not a Casey House program.*
Python Toronto June Meetup: June 10 at Fulfil
Python Toronto is back! Join us for our June meetup at **Fulfil**, hosted in the Industrious common area at **30 Adelaide Street East (near Yonge/Adelaide)** on Wednesday, June 10, 2026 at 6:00pm!
If you are interested in giving a talk, we'd love to have you! Please fill out this form โ [Submit a Python Toronto talk](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfpNKB0Sbs893xp72M4TxmYGrTyLm4Nh1SSXnCqChP9mx6_9A/viewform?usp=header)! Talks are typically short, typically 5 to 10 minutes, and up to 20 minutes if you've really got something to say, and on any topic that would be interesting to a room of Python people. This can be a Python library that has helped you, a research paper you've enjoyed, or an interesting application of AI.
The Python meetup is a casual, community-oriented meetup hosted by companies that use Python in Toronto. Talks are short, informal, and sometimes ad-hoc.
Space is limited! Register now to hold your spot.
**When / Where**
* When: June 10, 2026, 6:00pm to 8:30pm.
* Where: Fulfil - Industrious common area, 30 Adelaide Street East, Toronto, ON (near Yonge/Adelaide)
Come early to enjoy snacks and drinks provided.
**Code of Conduct**
Python Toronto is dedicated to providing a welcoming, harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of gender, gender identity and expression, age, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, ethnicity, religion (or lack thereof), or technology choices. We do not tolerate harassment of any form. Sexual language and imagery is not appropriate for this venue, including talks, workshops, parties, Twitter and other online media. Meetup participants violating these rules may be sanctioned or expelled from the meetup (without a refund where applicable) at the discretion of the meetup organizers. Please email elaine@eswong.ca to report any issues.

Battle of the personal agents
Join the Columbus AI community for a special event.
**Battle of the Personal Agents** is your chance to see what people are actually building with AI agents and personal automation systems. Whether youโre running OpenClaw, Hermes, or a completely custom solution, bring your agent and show the community how it works.
Weโre interested in real-world implementations: the problems your agent solves, how you use it day-to-day, how itโs hosted and managed, how you built it, and why youโve chosen to keep using it. Live demonstrations are encouraged, so be prepared to show your code, architecture, workflows, and your agent performing real tasks.
This is less about polished presentations and more about sharing practical experience, comparing approaches, and learning from one another. If youโd like to present, please contact Chris Slee (via meetup) before the event so we can allocate enough time for everyoneโs demonstrations.
Come ready to show what youโve built, discover what others are doing, and maybe find a few ideas worth taking home.
Whether youโre deep in the field or just getting curious, come connect with others building and exploring AI in Columbus.

AI Agents 101: How to Make ChatGPT Do Actual Work
Most people still use AI like a search box: type one question, get one answer, repeat.
But the next step is AI agents: systems that can take a goal, break it into steps, use tools, remember context, and produce useful work for a human to review.
In this beginner-friendly session, weโll demystify what AI agents actually are โ without hype or jargon. Weโll walk through practical examples of how agents can help with research, planning, writing, coding, operations, and personal productivity.
Weโll cover:
* What makes an AI โagentโ instead of just a chatbot
* How agents break tasks into steps
* Where agents are genuinely useful today
* Where they fail, hallucinate, or need human review
* How to design simple AI workflows for your own work
* A live demo of an AI agent-style workflow from start to finish
No coding experience required. This is for anyone who wants to understand where AI tools are going and how to use them more effectively right now.
LOGISTICS AND PARKING:
The talk starts at 7:00 PM. The first half hour is reserved for everyone to get set up and mingle. Free pizza and drinks!
The cheapest parking option is to find street parking, which will only cost you a few bucks. Otherwise, park in the nearby veteran's museum lot for $8. It's highly recommended you avoid the nearby $15 garage parking.

A co-hosted event by ProductTank Columbus & Women in Product Columbus
๐ก About the Workshop
AI adoption is stalling across organizations โ not because of a lack of motivation or tools, but because it's fundamentally a behavior design challenge.
This hands-on workshop applies proven Behavior Design models and methods to help you move from a vague organizational wish to boost AI adoption to 3-5 concrete, testable interventions you can act on starting tomorrow.
Whether you're a product manager, on a product team, or just someone trying to get AI to actually stick at work, you'll leave with a clear picture of what's worth focusing on, what to ignore, and how to drive real, sustained adoption โ no guesswork required.

Claude Code with Unity
A session on using Claude Code, Anthropic's AI coding agent, in real Unity development. We'll cover what coding agents are, where Claude Code fits, and how to apply it to an actual game project.
The format is presentation-style, with live demos and time for questions throughout. After brief scene-setting on coding agents and what makes Claude Code distinct, we'll go problem-driven: demoing it live on a released Unity game and introducing each feature as a solution to a problem we hit.
What to Expect:
* An intro to coding agents and where Claude Code fits
* A live demo on a real Unity project
* Key features as solutions to real problems: ๐ข๐ซ๐ ๐ด๐ฃ๐ค.๐๐ฝ, context management, hooks, skills, subagents, and MCP
* Unity-specific pain points, including Domain Reload and MCP caveats
* Putting it together
All experience levels welcome. Food and drinks provided.
*Note: meetup topics may change โ check back for the latest details.*

**New to electronics or curious about tinkering?**
Youโre absolutely welcome. If youโre a beginner and want to experiment, Iโll have a couple of starter kits available so you can try things outโwhether thatโs blinking your first LED, putting something on a display, or experimenting with simple sensors. No pressure and no experience requiredโjust an interest in learning and building.
While we continue to pursue a more permanent venue for this Meetup, weโll be using public library facilities based on availability. This session will be at the Worthington Park Library in the Olentangy Meeting Room.
