Valentine’s ritual for ladies 💃
Let your soul bloom this winter 🌸🪞
Registration in instagram is required
When was the last time you looked in the mirror with absolute tenderness? Not looking for flaws, not criticizing, but simply... accepting?
🗓 February 12th, we invite you to a special workshop — an evening of creativity, warmth, and self-love.
We will combine the magic of painting with a tea ceremony. Over a cup of special tea, you will receive your mirror. But this time, you won’t just see a reflection there.
✨ What will we do?
You will take a brush and add to the mirror whatever you are missing right now.
Flowers framing your smile?
Words of support right on the glass?
Symbols of protection or patterns of joy?
What is the meaning behind it?
It is a simple but deep practice. You look at yourself through the prism of beauty that you create with your own hands. You add tenderness, strength, and acceptance to yourself.
🎁 The main highlight:
This mirror goes home with you.
So that the next morning, when you walk into the bathroom or bedroom still sleepy, you won't look at yourself with criticism, but through flowers and warm words. This is your new morning ritual of self-love.
Join us to bloom!
⏰ When: February 12, 19:00
Place - TBD

Felix Tensing: Exploratives Testen Bottom-up – Testsessions mit Sprengkraft
Hallo liebe Java User Group Mitglieder!
Im ersten Meetup des Jahres geht es mit Felix Tensing um das Thema Bottom-Up-Tests.
Wir freuen uns euch zu sehen (virtuell oder vor Ort).
Dank an [BRANDAD](https://brandad-solutions.de/) für Location, Bier und Pizza!
\-\-\-
Frühes Testen in der Softwareentwicklung gilt längst als bewährte Praxis – dennoch verlassen sich viele Entwickler:innen weiterhin auf „den Tester“, um ihre Arbeit zu prüfen. Entwicklung und Test laufen getrennt, Feedbackschleifen verlängern sich und es entstehen Wissenssilos. Die Folge: Fehler werden spät entdeckt, Korrekturen teurer und das gemeinsame Verständnis für Anforderungen und Nutzer:innen bleibt lückenhaft.
Exploratives Testen bietet hier eine einfache und wirkungsvolle Lösung. In selbstorganisierten Sessions können Teams ohne Vorwissen unmittelbar starten. Test-Chartas geben Orientierung, ohne die kreative Erkundung einzuschränken. Schon kurze, fokussierte Sessions liefern wertvolles Feedback, decken blinde Flecken auf und fördern den Wissensaustausch im Team. So profitiert das ganze Team vom Knowledge-Aufbau – sei es fachliches Wissen, Testmethoden oder Aspekte wie Barrierefreiheit.
Der Vortrag zeigt praxisnah, wie Entwickler:innen exploratives Testen bottom-up einführen können – auch ohne offizielles „Go“ von oben. Anhand von Beispielen, konkreten Anleitungen und leicht übertragbaren Formaten erhalten Teilnehmende einen Hands-on-Einstieg, mit dem sie sofort beginnen und profitieren können. Exploratives Testen zeigt sofort Wirkung – wenn ihr es einfach ausprobiert.

Dein Vortrag bei der Java Usergroup Nürnberg!
Hast du dich in letzter Zeit in deinem Projekt oder privat mit einem interessanten Thema beschäftigt? Vermutlich ist das nicht nur für dich selbst interessant! Hast du Lust, selber einmal einen Vortrag bei der Java-Usergroup Nürnberg zu halten?
Wir sind nicht nur auf Java-Themen fokussiert, sondern beschäftigen uns gern mit und um alles über Software Entwicklung und IT.
Wir wollen bei der JUG nicht nur bekannten Speaker\*innen eine Plattform geben und die neuesten State-of-the-Art Technologien vorstellen. Wir freuen uns auch besonders, wenn wir Themen aus unserem technologischen (Arbeits-)alltag Raum geben zu können. Melde dich gerne bei uns, wenn du dazu Lust hast, wir geben wenn gewünscht gerne auch Hilfestellung bei der Vorbereitung!
Den Bosch Tabletop Testing Night
Whether you are a designer with a vision or a player who loves seeing how the "cardboard magic" happens, we invite you to our board game playtesting night in Den Bosch.
Here is how you can get involved:
**The Evening Flow**
* **19:30 \| The Designer Pitch:** We kick things off with a quick showcase. Designers present their prototypes, giving you a glimpse into the mechanics and themes currently on the table.
* **The Playtest:** Once the pitches are in, players choose their table. Our goal is to ensure every game gets the eyes (and hands) it needs.
* **The Rotation:** Depending on the length of the games, ranging from quick fillers to more "epic" sessions, we will rotate players and designers throughout the night.
* **22:30 \| Wrap Up:** We wind down the sessions, exchange final feedback, and head out.
**Why Join Us?**
* **For Designers:** Get your prototype off the kitchen table and into the hands of the players. Real-world feedback is the most powerful tool in your design kit.
* **For Players:** Be the first to break (and then help fix) something new. Your insights directly influence the development of the next potential tabletop hit.
**Location:** Labyrinth Den Bosch, Orthen 16, Den Bosch **Time:** 19:30 - 22:30ish
Whether you have a game to test or just a passion for playing, come help us turn good ideas into great games.
Bringing a game concept/prototype? Consider making a 1-pager (best known as a sell-sheet) to add to your table. Players appreciate this and it helps in preparing for your game pitch.
To check for actual updates and to sign up as a designer please go to our Guild website and find the event post of that month. We also share more events and news there: [spellenmaakgilde.nl](https://spellenmaakgilde.nl/)
Shut Up & Write! [Amsterdam/ IJburg]
Join us for an hour of writing! We’ve discovered that it’s strikingly helpful to write with other writers. See if it’s true for you at Factor-ij Amsterdam on Thursday mornings.
Be it a book, blog, script, essay, dissertation, resume, melody, poem or just plain work stuff, you are invited to write it with us. No one will see what you've written or give you unsolicited advice. Instead of just thinking about writing, come and get some real writing done.
SCHEDULE:
11: 15 AM - Quick introductions
11: 30 AM - Timer starts: write for 1 hour
12: 30 PM - The End: chat, take off, or keep writing
OPTIONAL SOCIALIZING happens at 12:30 pm after the writing is wrapped. Writing is very solitary. Connecting (and sometimes even commiserating) with other writers is a cool thing.
BEING LATE IS OKAY: just show up and get settled, then check-in with me after the session. (I’ll be the person with the Shut Up & Write! sign.) If you were on time, please be willing to make room for the friendly latecomer.
Happy writing and I look forward to seeing you at Factor-ij!
What Should I Bring?
Whatever you need to be able to write!
Bring earbuds/earplugs if you want to block the cafe’s overhead music or the occasional conversation by other patrons.
Please come with your devices pre-charged, since we probably won't be always sitting somewhere with charging possibilities.
Other Important Details:
Travel by public transportation:
1. Take Tram 26 from the central station Amsterdam, and step out by the last stop.
2. Take bus 66 from the Amsterdam Bijlmer station, step out by Pieter Oosterhuisstraat, and further walk in the direction of the bus till the corner.
FREE Wifi.

AI Essentials for professionals - 2e pilot
We zien dat AI inmiddels door veel mensen en organisaties wordt gebruikt, vooral voor tekst, plannen en ideeën. Tegelijkertijd merken we dat dit gebruik vaak onzeker en oppervlakkig blijft. Mensen experimenteren, maar twijfelen:
* Klopt dit wel?
* Gebruik ik AI “goed”?
* Haal ik er echt voordeel uit, of kost het vooral tijd?
De kern van het probleem is niet een gebrek aan tools of kennis, maar een gebrek aan grip, overzicht en vertrouwen in het eigen oordeel bij het werken met AI.
**Wat houdt deze workshop in?**
We willen een kleinschalige pilot-workshop (halve dag) organiseren waarin we professionals helpen om:
* AI anders te leren zien (als denkpartner, niet als antwoordmachine)
* Bewuster vragen te stellen en context te geven
* AI‑output te beoordelen in plaats van blind te volgen
Het is nadrukkelijk geen technische training en geen overzicht van tools.
Het is een leerervaring die zich richt op denken, beoordelen en professioneel gebruik.
**Voor wie is dit bedoeld?**
De Training richt zich op:
* Niet-technische managers en professionals
* Die veel werken met tekst, plannen en besluitvorming
* Die AI al gebruiken (bijv. ChatGPT), maar daar nog te weinig zekerheid en rendement uit halen
**Wat maakt deze aanpak anders?**
* Interactief en herkenbaar: deelnemers werken met hun eigen praktijk en leren van elkaar
* Beperkt en scherp: geen overload, maar drie kerninzichten
* Veilig en menselijk: twijfel wordt genormaliseerd, niet weggepoetst
Deelnemers weten na afloop wat ze “maandag anders doen”
**Pilot2**
Na een succesvolle eerste pilot op 16 januari hebben we weer verbeteringen aangebracht voor deze pilot. We verwachten dan ook eerlijke feedback om deze workshop nog gerichter in te kunnen zetten om professionals meer bewust te maken van de mogelijkheden en onmogelijkheden van AI.
Deze workshop wordt verzorgd door Edgar Stormbroek en Ziryan Salayi
9:00 9:30 Inloop
9:30 - 12:00 AI in praktijk
12:00 - 13:00 Lunch
13:00 - 14:00 Vervolg AI in praktijk
14:00 - 14:30 Afronding en feedback

ManKracht Avond (Amersfoort)
Ha mannen!
Weer een reguliere ManKracht meetup op de vrijdagavond in Amersfoort! Zoals altijd is de intentie voor onze meetups op locatie om een gemakkelijke, veilige en open atmosfeer te ervaren waarin we allemaal kunnen delen of inbrengen wat ons bezig houdt als man.
Uiteraard zijn tijdens de ManKracht Avond nieuwe deelnemers welkom, we streven zoals altijd naar een groepsgrootte aan van 6 tot maximaal 10 man.
Hier kort wat belangrijke info op een rijtje:
* De offline meetup begint stipt om 20:00, vanaf dat moment zijn de 'deuren' gesloten. We vragen je dus om uiterlijk 5 minuten van te voren aan te komen. Je bent vanaf 19:30 welkom.
* De avond duurt tot ongeveer 21:30. Voel je vrij om daarna het gesprek met andere deelnemers voort te zetten op een andere locatie (café/bar/kroeg).
* Graag op tijd de RSVP in te vullen i.v.m. beperkte plaatsen. Mocht je op tijd weten dat je verhinderd bent, graag je RSVP aanpassen zodat mannen op de wachtlijst op tijd weten dat ze toch kunnen deelnemen.
* Voel je vrij om een vriend mee te nemen, geef dit in dat geval ook even aan in de RSVP.
Hopelijk zien we elkaar weer en mocht je nog vragen hebben dan hoor ik het graag natuurlijk.
P.S. locatie is thuis bij Sam

FinFit Circle: Making Smart Money Decisions in Relationships
## **Making Smart Money Decisions in Relationships**
*Live expert discussion + facilitated breakout circles on 'Love & Money'*
RSVP (**https://luma.com/b3dphgts)**
Money is rarely just about numbers. It’s about who decides. Who carries responsibility. Who plans ahead — and who assumes things will work out.
This Valentine’s FinFit Circle session is ***for women who want to build relationships — new or ongoing — that are loving, fair, and financially secure***, without being naïve, pessimistic, or afraid to ask real questions.
Whether you’re dating, in a long-term commitment, separating, or starting again, this conversation helps you think clearly about money before emotions or circumstances decide for you.
***
## **What this session is really about**
This live FinFit Circle session explores how money shapes relationships in practice — through everyday decisions and conversations.
Together, we’ll look at:
* **Where money decisions actually get made** (often earlier than we think)
* **Which assumptions tend to create tension or imbalance over time**
* **Which questions, financial and legal arrangements, and boundaries matter most across different stages of relationships**, while you still have room to choose differently
***
## **Three expert lenses, one grounded conversation**
Money in relationships doesn’t sit in one domain — which is why this session brings together emotional, financial, and legal perspectives:
* **[Stephanie Clifford-Kroon](https://clifford-kroon-coaching.lovable.app/about)**, Certified Relationship Coach
* **[Nadam Schmidt](https://www.linkedin.com/in/nadamschmidt/)**, Certified Financial Planner
* **[Siham Maachi](https://silkadvocaten.nl/en/team/siham-maachi/)**, International Family Lawyer & Solicitor
***
## **What you’ll walk away with**
* **Clarity on your money patterns** and how they show up in relationships
* Key questions and **practical tips** **to discuss money constructively** with a (future) partner
* Ways to think about **shared vs individual finances**, including what’s smart, why, and tradeoffs
* **Legal realities** worth knowing early (agreements, rights, timing)
* **Perspective and connection** from women navigating similar questions
***
## **How the session works**
* **60-minute live fireside conversation**
* **30-minute interactive breakout circles** (4–6 women)
**Location:** FinFit Circle · Online
***
## **Contribution**
This session is **€30**.
If you’re able, you can **pay it forward** by sponsoring another woman’s place at the same introductory rate, helping keep these conversations accessible in the FinFit community.
