**NOTE: we had to change to the 9th from the originally advertised 2nd.** *We'll meet at Adastra office, Mississippi House at Karlín. We'll gather at the ground floor at the reception and then we'll proceed to the offices at the 7th floor.* We will have presentation on the *ZIO Prelude* Scala library and the FP abstractions it provides you with. It's a modern take on how a Scala native solution can look like, instead of copying Haskell -- this is not your grandpa's cats! The other presentation will be about architecture by David Lebl: *Complexity is a Sin, But Hexagons Forgive* Managing code complexity through DDD, hexagonal architecture, and modular monoliths We may have a short presentation about Clojure tools, we'll keep you posted.

Are you learning Spanish and feel that you need more conversation but are shy to speak? Here you will meet beginners and intermediate and we all will make mistakes in our Spanish communication so it will be just fun! Simply come and enjoy your conversation with the friendly broken Spanish talking group! Sometimes we will meet in some cozy café, sometimes we may go for a walk or some Spanish culture related event. ¿Estás aprendiendo español y sientes que necesitas más conversación pero te da vergüenza hablar? Aquí conocerás a principiantes e intermedios y todos cometeremos errores en nuestra communicación en español, así que será simplemente divertido. ¡Ven y disfruta de tu conversación con el grupo amigable de habla de español roto! A veces nos vemos en algún café acogedor, otras veces podemos dar un paseo o algún evento relacionado con la cultura española. For half of the Spanish here I used translator so if some of the Spanish words above sound weird to you, feel free to blame Google Translate :)

It's open gaming night again! Come alone (or with friends) and meet some new people to game with. Just look for the 'Open Gaming' table(s) and feel free to sit in. We'll keep the games pretty light, so if you don't know many games, don't feel intimidated. Instruction is always available. (70,- gaming fee still applies)

MÁME PLNO 😶‍🌫️ Je nám to moc líto, ale kapacita byla naplněna a další Punkery už nejsme schopní registrovat. Další Data Punkers budou o tom, jak dnes lidé skutečně pracují s AI, daty a vývojem. Ne o tom, co „by se mělo“, ale co funguje, co ne a kde se v praxi láme chleba. Už 10.2. od 17:30, Krátké přednášky, konkrétní zkušenosti a pak klasický komunitní networking. 🎤 Program: **🎤Vývoj před a po AI** [Petr Brzek](https://www.linkedin.com/in/petrbrzek/?locale=en_US) (CEO Macaly) Petr má za sebou několik technologických projektů a v posledních letech se intenzivně věnuje AI produktům. Se svým týmem postavil AI startup Macaly, který během velmi krátké doby vzbudil zájem investorů i strategických hráčů a skončil akvizicí v řádu stovek milionů korun. Ve své přednášce se podívá na to, jak AI reálně změnila způsob, jak se dnes vyvíjí software – od práce jednotlivých vývojářů přes fungování týmů až po rozhodování, co má a nemá smysl stavět. **🎤Conversational Analytics v MSD** [Ondřej Kubera](https://www.linkedin.com/in/ondrejkubera/) (Tech Chapter Director at MSD) ukáže, jak tým v MSD přechází od klasických dashboardů k „mluvení s daty“. Řeč bude o tom, jak to udělat bezpečně, spolehlivě a tak, aby to fungovalo i ve větším měřítku – a jaké jsou základy pro agentic analytics. 🎤 **AI Analytics in Practice: Beyond Dashboards** [Jan Difko](https://www.linkedin.com/in/jan-difko-ba615314a/)\, Cloud Data Architect \| Česká spořitelna – Jak lze analytiku AI rozšířit na analytiky a obchodní týmy – a co to znamená pro tradiční BI reporting. Na dvou praktických příkladech ukáže AI běžící přímo na datové platformě: od textové analytiky zákaznické zpětné vazby až po konverzační zážitky typu „promluvte si se svými daty“. V jakých oblastech doplňuje analytika AI BI dashboardy a v jakých je může začít nahrazovat? Pragmatický pohled na to, co ve skutečnosti funguje v reálných analytických týmech. 🎤 **AI-Ready Data Platform: Klíčové principy pro agentic AI a moderní datovou architekturu** [Ondřej Blaha](https://www.linkedin.com/in/ondrejblaha1/), Tech Lead v Revolt BI – jak připravit datovou architekturu tak, aby byla připravená na práci s agenty a AI use casy. 📅 Kdy? 10. 2. 2026 🕔 Open doors: 17:30 🕠 Začátek přednášek: 18:00 📍 Kde? [Apify](https://apify.com/), [Lucerna Palace (Vodičkova 704/36 Praha 1)](https://apify.com/contact) Těšíme se na vás! **Data Punkers**

Pojďme se pravidelně potkávat a sdílet zkušenosti z Power Platformy, co nás na ní baví, co nás trápí a co nového zajímavého přichází. A pokud už nám to někde reálně běží, pochlubme se, jak to funguje nebo nefunguje. Témata jsou primárně Power Automate, Power Apps, Power Pages, Power BI, Copilot Studio, Dynamics 365 a Dataverse. Budeme rádi i za méně pokročilé příspěvky, protože většinou jsme velmi hluboko v technických detailech. **Lokalita:** Fyzicky v Microsoftu v Praze Vyskočilova 1561/4a, Praha 4, 140 00 Místnost Morava Případně online na [https://ppug.community/stream](https://ppug.community/stream) **Jazyk:** čeština **Agenda:** [https://ppug.community/agenda](https://ppug.community/agenda) **Přihlašte vlastní příspěvek:** [https://ppug.community/sessions](https://ppug.community/sessions) **Link na stream:** [https://ppug.community/stream](https://ppug.community/stream) **Občerstvení:** Bagety **Úroveň:** 100-300 Tak si prosím naplánujte čas ve svých kalendářích a přijďte, pokud bude chuť a čas, tak si po meetupu určitě můžeme sednout na pivo.

Hello Python magicians and A.I. operators! The 33rd Prague PyData meetup will take place at **Pure Storage offices**. As usual, the talks will start at 18:30 but we encourage you to come as soon as **18:00** to enjoy the opportunity to socialize and refresh yourselves (which you can continue doing during the break and after the talks). Note that this time we will want you to sign a **non-disclosure agreement (NDA) when entering** (only to protect the Pure Storage hardware in development; the talks themselves are public of course!) Our main goal is to build the community around Python and data and make it welcoming to people of various skills and experience levels. ⚡ If you are interested in giving a lightning talk (up to 5 minutes to present an idea, tool or results related at least to some degree to Python and/or data), please contact us before the event or at its beginning. **📢 Evals, Benchmarks, and Guardrails: A Pythonista's Guide to Not Mixing Them Up** **([Šimon Podhajský](https://www.linkedin.com/in/simonpodhajsky/), Waypoint)** "I'll just write pytest tests for my LLM"—but should you? This talk untangles benchmarks, evals, and guardrails: three concepts that sound similar but map to different Python patterns. Learn why pytest CAN work for evals (with the right mindset), why guardrails aren't tests at all, and a grounded theory approach to defining what "good" actually means for your task. **📢 Orchestration Beyond the Schedule: Real-Time Integrations with Prefect** **([Ondřej Hlaváč](https://www.linkedin.com/in/ondrej-hlavac-24423a217/), Pure Storage)** As Python data workflows grow in complexity, relying on simple scripts and cron jobs often leads to "silent failures" and a lack of visibility. Enter Prefect—a modern orchestration framework that empowers developers to build, observe, and manage robust pipelines using standard Python code. While Prefect is rapidly gaining traction for scheduled batch processing, we took a different path: using it to power real-time event integrations for Master Data Management. In this talk, I will introduce what makes Prefect unique compared to legacy tools and demonstrate how we adapted it to handle immediate, event-driven flows. We will explore how its built-in resilience capabilities—like automatic retries, state management, and detailed observability—can be repurposed to make real-time integrations as reliable as nightly ETL jobs.

I love my job and one of the main things I do is help customers get going with any of the data technologies at Microsoft. Right now there are a lot of my customers asking about Microsoft Fabric. It's hard to weave across all the shiny new options across the Fabric landscape, let alone figure out where it fits into your organization. In this session we'll focus on answering one question - how can I get data into Fabric? We'll talk through the "it depends" options and see some of the options in live demos.

### Tools in your AI's Toolbox : An introduction to MCP Servers The generative AI revolution has unlocked unprecedented capabilities, but the next frontier is agency: empowering models to interact with, query, and act upon the world. The current challenge is the “N x M integration problem,” where every AI model requires a custom, brittle integration for each external tool or data source. This approach simply doesn’t scale. How can we give an AI access to our sales leads, code repositories, or IoT devices in a standardized, secure, and reusable way? This session introduces Anthropic’s Model Context Protocol (MCP), the open-source framework designed to solve this challenge and become the universal connector—the USB-C port—for AI. MCP standardizes how AI models discover and use external tools, moving beyond simple function-calling to a robust, client-server architecture. We will dive into how this open protocol is creating a new ecosystem for building powerful, context-aware AI agents. Join this session for a developer-focused introduction where you will learn how to: Understand the core concepts of the open-source Model Context Protocol and its architecture. Utilize pre-built, open-source MCP servers to instantly connect AI to tools like Git, Slack, and databases. Build a custom MCP server to securely expose your own proprietary data and APIs as tools for any compliant AI. Move beyond bespoke integrations and contribute to a standardized, collaborative, and open ecosystem. Stop building one-off connectors and start building intelligent agents. This session will give you the practical knowledge to leverage MCP and create the next generation of AI that doesn’t just talk, but does.

**People Analytics 101: Making Sense of Compensation Data** Compensation data is one of the most widely used and widely misunderstood forms of people analytics. The session will cover where compensation data comes from, including market pricing data, internal payroll data, and benchmarking sources, and how companies think about structuring and analyzing that information. We will explore how compensation data is leveraged to set salary ranges, manage internal equity, support hiring and retention, and align pay with business strategy. A portion of the session will address common data challenges and limitations, such as market noise, inconsistent job matching, and incomplete datasets, while keeping the primary focus on practical use rather than technical depth. The session will also look ahead at where the space is going, including the growing impact of pay transparency laws, expanding pay equity requirements, and emerging regulations in the US and Europe that require organizations to report on gender and pay gaps. The goal is to give attendees a clear mental model for how compensation analytics works today and why getting it right is becoming increasingly critical. (note: we are back at Rev1 this month!) **About Our Speaker** [Alex Moore](https://www.linkedin.com/in/alexscottmoore/) is the founder of [Moore Cooperative](https://moorecooperative.com/), where he advises organizations on compensation strategy, pay equity, and people analytics. His work focuses on helping organizations like the Ohio Supreme Court design, analyze, and communicate compensation systems that are data-informed, defensible, and aligned with organizational goals. Alex lives in Granville, Ohio and has three little kiddos. More info at [cbusdaw.com](https://cbusdaw.com)
