What is essential, what can be left out? **People:** What easy ways do bikablo® provide to draw people, roles, groups and situations? Colour and space: What are simple and fast options to colour elements and spaces in a quick and simple way that supports the graphic structure? **Writing:** How do I improve my handwriting on the flipchart to make it more legible and attractive? **Live scribing:** How can I use easy step-by-step techniques to record a dialogue in real-time and enhance a recorded poster with a key visual? **Posters and settings:** How do I combine the ingredients (graphics, writing, symbols, figures, and colour) to create to the point visual translations of content and meaningful posters for different purposes (welcome, agenda, instructions, group work)? ***You’ll also receive the gifts below as part of the training:*** **bikablo® Starterset:** Every participant receives the official bikablo StarterSet including four visualisation markers and two StarterBooklets that summarise the principles, content and techniques of the training on 64 pages.

Dublin Data Science is having an event in Zalando for June. Zalando is one of the top Europe’s leading online fashion platform, connecting 62 million active customers with more than 7,000 brands across 29 markets. We will have two talks: one from Senior Data Scientist at Zalando, Alex Martinelli, and one from DDS regular Duncan Healy. **Talk 1:** **Data Science at Zalando** and a non-hyped view on how we optimize the use of LLMs for different tasks In this talk I'll provide an overview of the data-science work happening in Zalando, focusing on core projects built right here in our Dublin office, including product-matching, product-tagging, and Aspect-Based Sentiment Analysis (ABSA) for customer reviews. While the rapid evolution of LLMs has made them powerful tools for these tasks, we adopt and evaluate them carefully. I will discuss our practical, balanced approach to adopting and evaluating LLMs, demonstrating how we integrate them into our existing pipelines to achieve optimal performance while keeping infrastructure costs in check. Alex Martinelli is a senior data-scientist at Zalando, previously worked for IBM-Watson. Mainly focusing on representation-learning, computer-vision and generative-models. Additional hobbies and interests include procedural-computer-graphics in Blender, drawing and lucid-dreaming. **Talk 2:** **How to Tame the Dragons of Data** Duncan Healy is a freelancer and DDS regular, he made the mistake of pontificating too often about LLMs and databases and now has to give a talk about it.

Hi Guys. We are back for the Summer!!!! A big word of thanks to the OPW for granting the permit for this event. It is greatly appreciated. We will be at the Phoenix Park Bandstand near the Phoenix Park Tearooms. **Location**: https://goo.gl/maps/BFiDJFmLyFVBNmVR9 **Date**: June 20, 2026 **Time**: 14.30-15.15: Rueda de Casino Class 15.15-17.30: Free Practice with Rueda Reviews & Animations. Please note the following: 1. This is a concrete surface, so factor that into your choice of footwear. 2. In the case of bad weather, the bandstand itself is roofed, so there should be no problem with rain etc, but numbers will be much more limited, with no over-spill spaces. 3. Please feel free to bring snacks etc., however, please bring something to bring your rubbish home in, as bins in that area of Phoenix Park are a little sparse. 4. The Phoenix Park Tearooms are an excellent facility and serve wonderful coffee, tea, treats. Please consider them as an option for your pre-dancing turbo boost. It does no harm to get on well with our neighbours. There are toilets there too, but they are normally quite busy. 5. Please don't come if feeling unwell. 6. This event is free of charge.

Extensions allow developers to customize the editor with new features, integrations, and workflow improvements tailored to their needs. In this session, we’ll cover what extensions are and the different types available, including full extensions written in TypeScript or JavaScript, along with lighter-weight extensions such as color themes, language packs, language support, code snippets, and keymaps. We’ll also look at practical reasons a developer might create an extension, from automating repetitive tasks to adding custom tooling. The session includes a hands-on walkthrough of creating a new extension, testing it locally, and understanding the basic project structure. We’ll close with a brief overview of how extensions are packaged and published to the Visual Studio Marketplace and other distribution options. **YouTube Link** TBD
