Vibe Coding Collective w/ Softr + Free drink 🍹
This meetup is a social coding jam where we use AI to quickly turn fun ideas into functional apps. Whether you're an experienced developer or have never written a line of code, you'll fit right in.
There will be **free alcohol, soft drinks, and snacks** for all attendees!
This time we're teaming up with our friends at [Softr](https://www.softr.io/). Bring an idea or just curiosity, and we'll team you up, point you at Softr's AI-powered, no-code builder, and you'll leave with a working app — or whatever else you dream up.
A few flavours of **what folks might build on the night**:
* Turn a messy spreadsheet into a real, login-protected app
* Build the internal tool to automate the boring part of your job
* Spin up a portal for your community, side project, or weirdest idea
[Softr](https://www.softr.io/) is an AI app builder that turns your ideas into real business apps — client portals, internal tools, dashboards — complete with login, permissions, live data, and workflow automation.
**Format 🛠️**
We'll be teaming up in small groups of 3-4 people. We'll provide a few starter prompts to get you going, and then it's heads-down building with your teammates. The goal is to vibe, learn from each other, and walk out with something working.
**New to vibe coding? ✨**
No worries. We'll provide simple starter ideas, example prompts, and tool suggestions so even total beginners can dive in without stress.
**Schedule 🕒**
(Doors open early so we can settle in. Aim to arrive by 18:20 so we can kick off on time.)
18:30 — Welcome
18:40 — Intro from the Softr team
18:55 — Challenge brief & team formation 🤝
19:00 — Round 1: Build 💻
19:45 — Break (snacks, drinks, swap ideas) 🥕
20:00 — Round 2: Keep building 🏗️
20:30 — Optional demos (show what you made!) 📺
20:50 — Hang out, network, make friends ☀️
21:00 — Close
**Who is it for?**
Anyone! Curious coders, tinkerers, designers, founders, AI-curious folks, and developers. If you've ever wanted to turn an idea into a working app without writing code, you belong here.
**What to bring**
- Laptop 💻

BLISS x juna.ai Workshop: Open-Ended Algorithm Discovery with LLMs
**⚠️ IMPORTANT: REGISTRATION MANDATORY ⚠️**
Registration on **Luma** is **REQUIRED** to attend this event. **Link: https://luma.com/7zfk3orp?utm_source=meetup**
Your registration is subject to host approval. You must complete the registration process on lu.ma to receive the full event location details and confirmation of your attendance.
**Please note: Without approved registration on Luma, you will NOT be able to access the event location or attend.**
We are excited to host a **BLISS x juna.ai workshop** featuring **Dr. Nima Siboni (senior RL Engineer)**, who will guide us through an interactive session on algorithm discovery with LLMs.
** Title: The Heuristic Scientist: Open-Ended Algorithm Discovery with LLMs**
**📅 Date: 03.06.2026**
**🕕 Time: 18:00**
📍 Location: TU Berlin Marchstrasse 23 [Room 0.011]
The session will last around 2 hours, followed by a networking session
with juna.ai and fellow AI enthusiasts (and free pizza!🍕). Bring your laptop!
**Abstract:** Large language models are increasingly useful not only for writing code, but for exploring the space of possible algorithms. In this hands-on workshop, we will look at how LLMs can act as “heuristic scientists”: generating candidate strategies, turning ideas into executable code, testing them against concrete objectives, and refining them through feedback. The workshop centers on the general discovery loop behind LLM-assisted heuristic generation. Participants will learn how to structure problems for algorithm discovery, prompt models to propose interpretable heuristics, evaluate those heuristics with simulations or benchmarks, and use the results to guide further search. We will also discuss when simple prompting is enough, when training or fine-tuning may help, and how to keep generated heuristics understandable, testable, and auditable.
By the end of the session, participants will have built a small discovery loop of their own and will understand the practical trade-offs involved in using LLMs for open-ended algorithm discovery: creativity versus control, exploration versus verification, and automation versus human judgment.
**⚡ FINAL REMINDER ⚡**
**You MUST register and be approved on Luma to attend. The event location will only be visible after your registration is confirmed by the host. Link: https://luma.com/7zfk3orp?utm_source=meetup**

From APIs to Agents: Control, Identity, and What Breaks Along the Way
Riverty Tech Night in collaboration with KI Park and cloud ahead
Most of what we've built over the last \~15–20 years assumes a static frame of reference: Apps talk to services over APIs. You know who's calling what, you can stick a gateway in front of it, apply some policy, and move on.
Agents don't really fit that model.
They don't just call an API and return. They decide what to do, call a tool, look at the result, call something else, maybe involve another agent, loop through an LLM a few times… all the while, doing onbehalf of the user, with permissions that aren't always obvious.
It's not always clear who is actually doing something.
It's not obvious what the full execution path looks like.
And the access control models we're used to — user → service, service → service fall part.
We'll dig into what actually breaks when you start wiring agents into real systems, especially around identity and access control. Things like:
\- how \(or if\) you assign identity to an agent
\- what it means for an agent to act "on behalf of" someone
\- how you enforce policy when the flow isn't predefined
\- and how you get any kind of visibility into what just happened
We'll also look at some of the patterns starting to emerge: agents talking to other agents, tools being invoked dynamically, and why a mediation layer (ie, agentgateway) must be built from the ground up with this in mind.
\-\-\-\-\-\- Speaker \-\-\-\-\-\-
Christian Posta ([Solo.io](http://solo.io/))
Christian is a globally recognized expert in cloud-native architecture, service mesh, and distributed systems. As Global Field CTO at [Solo.io,](http://solo.io,/) he works with enterprises to design and implement next-generation platforms—and is now at the forefront of AI-native infrastructure and agent systems.
\-\-\-\-\-\- Who should attend? \-\-\-\-\-\-
This meetup is for people who are building or thinking about the next generation of enterprise systems:
Platform engineers and architects, Cloud-native practitioners, AI engineers working with agents and LLMs, Anyone exploring how AI changes system design
\-\-\-\-\-\- How to join \-\-\-\-\-\-\-
This time, the meetup will be in the premises of Riverty in Kantstrasse 17, Berlin (4th Floor of Living Berlin mall). Riverty will provide pizza and drinks. Please bring your ID as you will need to sign an NDA (we are a regulated entity).

Walk & Talk About Life's Big Questions
[The Board Walks](http://www.theboardwalks.com/) are for curious people who love deep conversations.
If that sounds like you, **bring a thoughtful topic** and join us for a 5-mile walk (10,000+ steps!).
**HOW IT WORKS**
**Step 1: Bring a topic**
Before you arrive, think of **one** topic you want to explore. A question. A thought that's been on your mind. An obsession you want to geek out on. This is your ticket to the event.
**Step 2: Circle up & share**
We gather in a circle. Your friendly walk host gives a speech to set the tone. Everyone shares: your name, what you're grateful for, and your topic. That's it. 60 seconds.
**Step 3: Walk, talk & float**
We walk 5 miles. You naturally drift into conversation with 2-3 people at a time, pulled by topics that spark your curiosity. When you're ready to move on, just say: "I'm going to float!"
**Step 4: Feel more alive**
Two hours flies by. You're back where you started — but you feel different. More alive. More energized. More connected to yourself and others. That's why regulars join 20+ times.
*For more details, read our [Orientation Guide.](https://www.theboardwalks.com/orientation)*
**HOW TO BRING A GREAT TOPIC**
A great topic = something you're genuinely curious about.
Recent topics include:
* "What are you passionate about right now?"
* "What makes a good friend?"
* "What's a belief you used to hold that you've completely changed?"
* "How do you want to be remembered?"
* "What would you do if money wasn't a factor?"
Think of your topic like the dish you're bringing to our conversational potluck. If everyone brings an A+ dish (i.e. energizing, uplifting, expansive), we'll all walk away feeling lighter and brighter.
**WHAT TO EXPECT**
This isn't a fitness event with casual chitchat. It's a walking think tank where we explore life's big questions together, beyond small talk. *If you're looking for light banter or a standard networking event, this probably isn't the right fit.*
But if you crave depth, genuine connection, and conversations that make you feel alive? You'll love it here.
**FAQ**
* Wear casual athletic attire and sneakers. It's a long walk!
* We have multiple first-timers at each event. We work hard to create a welcoming, inclusive, clique-free space.
* We welcome people of **all** ages, backgrounds, and industries who align with the [intention](https://www.theboardwalks.com/ground-rules) of this space.
* Rain or shine, we've been out here nearly every week since July 2022. If the event is cancelled, we'll let you know.
* Dogs, babies in strollers, parents, and friends are welcome — please text/email them the event link so they can RSVP and prepare a topic!
**LOGISTICS**
* If you'll arrive over 10 minutes late, we suggest skipping the event. It's hard to find us once we start walking, and your host can't answer messages during the event.
* This walk is designed for everyone to *move together at the same steady pace* (about 20 min/mile). This format works best when the whole group moves in unison. If you have mobility limitations, we kindly encourage you to find an event better suited to your needs.
* Read our [Orientation Guide](https://www.theboardwalks.com/orientation) for full details.
* If you enjoy the event, send **[this](http://www.theboardwalks.com/)** to a friend or sign up for our **[newsletter](https://theboardwalks.beehiiv.com/)**. We're in multiple cities with more on the way. 🤠👋
**IF YOU WANT TO GO DEEPER...**
[The Board](https://stan.store/ellebeecher/p/the-board) is the next step: a high-trust collective for renaissance people devoted to creating, connecting, and building lives that light us up.
* This is a global HQ for people who crave big talk, deep connection, and dream collaborations with people across industries. If the walks feel like a spark... The Board is the fire. Apply [here](https://stan.store/ellebeecher/p/the-board).
