Shambhala

Come to check out our hackerspace, talk to people and learn some new things, maybe use the tools for a short while, or just sit down with a laptop and do some work in a quiet place. Also a good time to sign up for a membership! We will have tea and coffee, likely also cookies. Come whenever from 19:00 till 22:00 - we might even be open until 24:00! If there's a problem (i.e. doors not open), call 28701072.

Join Latvia DevOps & AI Communities 30th event on February 24th at [Workland](https://wrkland.com/lv/locations/riga-telegraph). Doors open at 18:30, talks start at 19:00. ✨[Eriks Klotins](https://www.linkedin.com/in/eriksklotins/). Eriks is an engineer and researcher affiliated with Blekinge Institute of Technology in Sweden. He leads industry–academia collaboration projects with some very well-known global companies to improve their software delivery practices. **Talk name:** *Towards Continuous Everything*. In his talk, he will share insights and lessons learned about how organisations adopt continuous engineering, from planning to systematic collection and analysis of user feedback. He will share anecdotes, common pitfalls, solutions, and practical steps for any organisation to improve its software delivery. The talk is targeted at senior engineers, process leaders, and other decision-makers influencing software delivery. ✨[Mārtiņš Meļķis](https://www.linkedin.com/in/melkis/). Mārtiņš is a product leader and thinking partner drawn to moments of identity shift — when the old way no longer works, but the new one isn’t clear yet. As a systemic coach, he helps people debug their thinking, regain orientation, and reconnect with what actually matters. **Talk name:** *Strong, Silent, Lost: What It Means to Be a Man Today?*. For generations, being a man came with a clear script: be strong, provide, don’t complain, keep going. Today, that script is breaking. Many men find themselves caught between expectations they no longer fully believe in and a future they don’t yet understand — strong, but lonely; successful, but disconnected; capable, but unsure who they are without their roles. This talk offers a sharp and honest look at why so many men feel fully operational — but strangely off-mission. We will also have a **Lightning Talk** by: **Maris** and **Kalvis** from **[KALMARS](https://kalmars.lv/)**. Vibe-coding is becoming more popular every day. In this 10-minute session, Maris and Kalvis will talk about common issues and challenges in developing SaaS products, with a focus on the risks and limitations of relying purely on AI when building production-ready solutions.
