*Apologies in advance for the excessive use of the word “rave” in this event.* Join us — with intensity and grace — for a hybrid evening that begins with reflection and ends in bass. From a Saturday night discussion about the rave scene to an actual one in the south of Luxembourg. You’re welcome to attend either one or both: **20:00 – 22:00 \| Book Discussion @ Creapelle** “We were one nation united by the groove.” In 1989, one rave changed Kirk Field’s life. It led him to become a “rave reporter” and witness the UK’s Summer of Love. We’ll dive into his book *Rave New World: Confessions of a Rave Reporter*, though you don’t need to have read the book... curiosity is enough 😎 You can also watch the documentary beforehand [HERE](https://youtu.be/A-XrlMpwEuM) **23:00 \| Do You Rave? @ Rockhal Club** Luxembourg may not be Berlin. But every now and then, she hosts amazing raves and this is one of them! Join me and Laureena — two passionate ravers — as we move from conversation to groove in *Luxembourg’s biggest hard techno rave!* Event info & tickets [HERE](https://rockhal.lu/shows/do-you-rave-march/) Oh! and a gently reminder of the rave essentials: - Black clothes - Black shades - Gum - Earplugs - An open mind - Good sleep (the real super drug😉)

Moving to a new city is exciting at first — a fresh start, new opportunities, a new chapter. But once things settle, being new in town can feel lonely. You don’t know anyone yet, you’re unsure where to go to meet people, and everyone else seems to already have their circles. That’s where we come in. Our Fast Friending evenings are designed especially for those who are new in town and ready to build real friendships — creating welcoming spaces where conversations flow naturally and meaningful connections begin. **You will need to buy a ticket for attending -** [https://lux28thmarch.eventbrite.co.uk]( https://lux28thmarch.eventbrite.co.uk) \*You can use any debit or credit card to purchase your ticket at PayPal checkout.

The building address is 4450 Bridge Park The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400 **Abstract** Web Forms gave .NET developers a powerful abstraction for building reusable UI controls long before design systems were a thing. Web Components finally bring that same idea to the browser natively. This session explores how the Web Forms mindset translates into Custom Elements, Shadow DOM, and HTML templates. We’ll examine how Web Components enable design systems that work across frameworks, how they differ from server‑driven controls, and why they’re becoming a foundational layer for modern UI. Whether you’re maintaining legacy apps or building greenfield projects, you’ll leave with a practical understanding of how to apply familiar patterns in a modern, standards‑based way. **YouTube Link** TBA

**First meetup of the Columbus AI Engineering group.** We’ll kick things off with a practical, beginner-friendly discussion on: **How LLMs like ChatGPT actually work — and how to build real applications with them.** We’ll cover: * what’s actually happening under the hood (at a high level) * why LLMs behave the way they do (hallucinations, prompt sensitivity, etc.) * how people are building real systems with them today * where things break in practice This will be a **short, informal talk (\~15–20 min)** followed by open discussion and Q&A. Whether you’re an engineer, builder, or just curious about how modern AI systems work, you’re welcome to join. No slides, no fluff — just real conversation about real systems. We’ll hang out afterward and get to know each other.
