In some of our cities, we run a Startup Open Coffee focused on early startup founder questions and helping early startup Investors learn more about the funding process. For the next month, I will be in Tallinn, starting with Latitude59. I thought I would bring this Open Coffee conversation together while I am here. We will focus on the startup questions that folks have about their startup efforts and see if we as a group can find ways to help everyone make progress. Join me at Lift99 for an Open Coffee \- John Sechrest

To all locals, expats, and visitors in Tallinn, welcome! My wife and I are delighted to invite you to study the Word of God with us every Friday at 6:30 p.m. in a casual setting, accompanied by coffee and tea. We believe the Bible is entirely true, and we strive to live by its teachings. We also believe that the love of God is so powerful that it can touch hearts and heal what's broken in all of us. Let's study Christianity together to help you find answers to questions like: \*What is the meaning of life? * How do I deal with difficult situations * Who is God, and what is the Trinity? * How can Jesus Christ help me? * How can I forgive and treat others with love? Please join us or reach out if you have any questions! The meetups are in English.

**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** Like it or not, AI agents are now capable of turning a quickly written paragraph of requirements into a pull request that is ready to be integrated into real-world production applications and it's now our responsibility to make sure AI doesn't go rogue and take down prod - or corrupt our data by misunderstanding the requirements or our existing schemas. In this session we'll explore strategies to protect our codebases through unit and integration testing, documentation, and code review along with additional ways of providing context and guard rails to our AI agents as they carry out the work we've assigned them to do. By the time we're done, you'll have a firm grasp of the problem and understand some helpful options for protecting your codebase from vibe coding mishaps getting YOLOed into prod. **YouTube Link** TBD
