Hello, Jakarta Writer! **Are you a member of [Jakarta Friends](https://www.meetup.com/jakarta-friends/) yet?** Want to see **pictures** of past events? **[Take a look here!](https://www.meetup.com/jakarta-creatives/photos/)** And feel free to upload a few pictures you will take at the event 😊 JakCre and JakFri is **the** biggest, oldest, most active, and most inclusive MeetUp community in Jakarta… and we invite you to join us for this **WRITERS' CLUS: Give and receive FEEDBACK** **on your writing! 📖✍️🤓** Everyone is always welcome to join our events. Our community is all about creating authentic in-person connections in this urban jungle. Come as you are... it’s the best version of yourself. **ABOUT THE EVENT** What's one of the most difficult part in writing? Getting high-quality feedback! This event addresses exactly this! Plus, writers will have the chance to be part of a friendly community and a support system for fellow creatives. **We want to help and elevate each other!** This is what we will do: We will meet at the indicated time (please don't be late) and everyone who wishes to can drop their name on a box for a lucky draw. One person is selected by chance and will need to have a text **of any kind** (poetry/fiction/non-fiction/essay/article/script/blog/music lyrics/whatever!) ready to share with everyone on a Google drive folder. Then everyone will take their time and read the piece(s) on their own. We allocate **about 90 minutes quiet reading time**. Readers will take notes on what they wish to give feedback to. The author is also welcome to brief readers on what they should pay attention to or give feedback on. People who wishes to be there as readers only (that is, without putting their name in the lucky draw box), are most welcome to! The crucial part is that everyone needs to be respectful of each other's craft and give **polite, constructive feedback**! After reading time, there is the feedback time! **For about 90 minutes, we will discuss what we have read, and give feedback to the author.** Sounds easy, fun, and productive? It is. Everyone will have the chance to learn something new! This event doesn't require any preparation! We will read and give feedback on the spot. It's important that everyone is **on time** and **ready to share their text on Google Drive** for everyone to read, so that we can start without delays! This will be a unique occasion to receive a feedback on your writings (of any kind) and to practice your ability to give and receive feedbacks on texts! Just be ready to share (not mandatory) **a piece of your writing of about 2,000 words** (1,000 to 10,000 words is OK, too, but be aware that a shorter piece is more likely to receive plenty of feedback) as a Google Drive link and grant people access to read. **We have done this event many times before!

Hello, Jakarta Writer! **Are you a member of [Jakarta Friends](https://www.meetup.com/jakarta-friends/) yet?** Want to see **pictures** of past events? **[Take a look here!](https://www.meetup.com/jakarta-creatives/photos/)** And feel free to upload a few pictures you might take at the event 😊 JakWri (former Jakarta Writers) and JakFri is **the** biggest, oldest, most active, and most inclusive MeetUp community in Jakarta… and we invite you to join us for this **BOOK CLUB discussing "Persuasion" by Jane Austen!** Everyone is always welcome to join our events. Our community is all about creating authentic in-person connections in this urban jungle. Come as you are... it’s the best version of yourself. **ABOUT THE EVENT** The idea is very simple: we will meet and discuss the book. Everyone will receive a copy of the book as PDF beforehand **for free** (which we kindly ask not to share with everyone - this book discussion is for educational purposes). Reach out to the host to receive the PDF, and feel free to ask any question in the discussion section of the event page. Everyone is encouraged to read the short book (in English, about 300 pages) beforehand to participate to the discussion. Coming without having read the book is possible, but just half the fun. The host will give a short introduction about the book and guide through the discussion, which will be very informal and fun. Everyone is encouraged to share their thoughts and ask questions. This event is **introvert friendly**! No one will be put on the spot or forced to speak. Just join and share your passion for literature, no matter how much you read. This is a dream event for anyone who wishes to take a deep dive into literature and have a fun, social lunch time. Our book club will be in English. Everyone's English level is OK as this is a nice occasion to practice English in an informal and welcoming setting. **ABOUT THE BOOK** *"I can listen no longer in silence. I must speak to you by such means as are within my reach. You pierce my soul. I am half agony, half hope. Tell me not that I am too late, that such precious feelings are gone for ever. I offer myself to you again with a heart even more your own than when you almost broke it, eight years and a half ago. Dare not say that man forgets sooner than woman, that his love has an earlier death...* ***I have loved none but you.****"* I refuse to elaborate on anything more to describe the potency of the romance in this book.

**Event terbesar [My First Bitcoin](https://www.instagram.com/myfirstbitcoin.io/) di Asia akan segera hadir 🚀** **Kita akan mengadakan Bitcoin Unconference pertama kami—** **mengumpulkan pemula, alumni, hingga Bitcoiner dari berbagai penjuru dunia.** **📍 Surabaya — 22 Agustus 2026** **🚨Tempat terbatas.** **Kalau kamu mau jadi bagian dari ruang diskusi yang beda…** **👉 amankan tiketmu sekarang:** **[unconference.bitcoinindonesia.xyz](https://unconference.bitcoinindonesia.xyz/)** Kalau ngomongin uang, seringnya kita langsung pakai tanpa benar-benar tahu siapa yang ada di balik sistemnya. Padahal, ada peran besar dari lembaga seperti The Fed yang ikut membentuk cara uang itu bekerja sampai sekarang. 🤔 Di meetup kali ini, kita bakal ngobrol santai tentang sejarah dan peran The Fed—gimana awal mula terbentuknya, apa fungsinya, dan bagaimana keputusan-keputusannya bisa berdampak luas, bahkan sampai ke kehidupan kita sehari-hari. 🏦 Nggak perlu khawatir kalau topik ini terdengar “berat”. Kita bakal bahas dengan cara yang lebih ringan dan relatable, jadi kamu bisa pelan-pelan memahami tanpa harus punya latar belakang ekonomi. ☕💬 Dari pembahasan ini, biasanya mulai kebuka banyak hal—kenapa nilai uang bisa berubah, kenapa inflasi terjadi, dan bagaimana sistem ini berjalan di balik layar. Dari situ juga, kita bisa mulai melihat kenapa Bitcoin muncul sebagai alternatif dengan pendekatan yang berbeda. ⚡ Meetup ini cocok buat kamu yang ingin memperluas cara pandang tentang Bitcoin, bukan cuma dari sisi penggunaan, tapi juga dari sisi “cerita besar” di balik sistem keuangan yang ada hari ini. ✨ Seperti biasa, suasananya santai dan terbuka. Mau aktif diskusi atau sekadar menyimak juga nggak masalah—yang penting kita sama-sama belajar dan saling berbagi perspektif. 🤝 Yuk gabung dan mulai lihat hubungan antara The Fed, sistem keuangan, dan Bitcoin dengan cara yang lebih nyambung. Sampai ketemu di meetup! 🚀⚡​ ​\*\*[Bitcoinstitution – Helping visionary business leaders to beat inflation & survive the World War III](https://goakal.com/bitcoinstitution)\*\* ​ **👤 LEADER KOMUNITAS JAKARTA: [BANG RICKY](https://www.instagram.com/p/DLzLPNkRtsR/)** ​Bang Ricky — motor penggerak komunitas **Bitcoinstitution Jakarta**.

Tired of diving into your coworker’s cobbled container class? Tailwind CSS is here to save your sanity. Tailwind gives you a well-organized, utility-first approach to styling. This CSS framework eliminates naming debates, halts stylesheet scavenger hunts, and satisfies your marketing team’s whims with clear, composable class names and a powerful configuration system. You’ll spend less time fighting CSS and more time building beautiful interfaces. In this talk, I’ll walk through an interactive demo of Tailwind CSS and cover the following topics: * Set up Tailwind CSS in your project * Understand Tailwind’s utility classes and how they work * Integrate breakpoints and dark mode like a pro * Customizing Tailwind to fit your style Ditch your spaghetti stylesheets and come see how Tailwind CSS can make your project lighter, cleaner, and a lot more fun to build. Your future self will thank you. ***Bring your laptop and expect to write some (non-AI generated) code!*** Food and drinks will be available. **LOCATION:** 6515 Longshore Loop, Suite 300, Dublin, OH 43017 **FREE PARKING:** 6725 Longshore Street, Dublin, OH 43017

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
