Shut Up & Write! [Amsterdam/ IJburg]
Join us for an hour of writing! Weâve discovered that itâs strikingly helpful to write with other writers. See if itâs 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. (Iâll 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 cafeâs overhead music or the occasional conversation by other patrons.

Into the Monksâ Borderlands: Abbey Beer & Medieval Trails đżđş 20 km
Weâre heading out for a beautiful cross border hike through forest, heathland, open landscapes, and a very special midpoint stop: **De Achelse Kluis**, a historic abbey on the border between the Netherlands and Belgium.
The hike starts in the Netherlands and takes us through the peaceful **Leenderbos**, one of the most atmospheric forest areas in North Brabant. Expect woodland paths, sandy tracks, heath, open views, and that lovely Veluwe style feeling of moving between forest and open landscape.
As we continue south, we make our way toward the Belgian border and our main break location: **De Achelse Kluis**. This unique abbey complex lies between **Hamont Achel** and **Leende**. With roots going back to the 17th century, and later known as a Trappist abbey, it offers a beautiful neogothic setting with a brasserie, abbey shop, and a calm historic atmosphere.
After several kilometers of forest and heathland walking, arriving at the abbey will feel like a real reward. Weâll take our longer break here, with the option to enjoy the brasserie, have a coffee, try Limburgse vlaai, taste an abbey beer, or simply relax around the grounds.
After the break, we cross back into the Dutch side and return through the Leenderbos, completing a full loop through forest, heathland, and quiet countryside.
A hike with forest energy, abbey atmosphere, monksâ history, and a touch of Belgium.
đ˛ **WhatsApp group**
Iâll open a temporary WhatsApp group for everyone signed up before the hike, so we can coordinate carpooling, final break arrangements, and any last minute updates.
**đWhen and where to meet?**
Weâll meet at 11h15 at Busstop "Leende, Valkenswaardseweg/A2"" https://maps.app.goo.gl/Uij4AmfEos2foDbQ8
â° **We start walking a few minutes after meeting up**
We donât wait for latecomers, as we have a long route ahead and want to enjoy the full day properly.
**đ Coming by car?**
Please check your parking options beforehand so you arrive on time.
**â¸ď¸ Planned Breaks**
After around **10 km:** 60 minute break at **De Achelse Kluis**
I still need to confirm the practical arrangements with the brasserie, including whether we can just have drinks or whether we need to order food as well. Iâll share the update in the WhatsApp group once confirmed.
**đ¸ Payment**
Please pay as soon as you sign up: To keep things fair for everyone, if we donât receive your payment within 48 hours, we will need to remove you from the participant list. If thereâs a waiting list, this will happen sooner (in less than 48 hours). If that happens, no worries â youâre always welcome to sign up again if thereâs space.

Improv for Life Weekend workshop 1 Play, Presence & Relationships
Improv for Life Weekend workshop
Improv for your personal development. Playful. Powerful. Transformative.
What if real life could feel more like improvâfull of joy, connection, creativity, and flow?
Improv for Life is a one-of-a-kind course that blends the magic of improvisation with personal development. Itâs not about being funny or performing on stage (though that might happen too!)âitâs about learning to navigate life with more presence, courage, and flexibility.
In this course, youâll uncover the hidden wisdom in improv games and exercises, and apply it to real-life challenges in a way thatâs light, energizing, and deeply impactful.
Youâll practice life-changing skills like:
Being fully present
Listening deeply
Relating authentically
Acting with courage
Finding meaning in the moment
And explore rich, human themes.
Whether youâre a professional, a creative, or a curious human navigating change, Improv for Life offers a safe, playful space to shift stuck patterns, unlock your creativity, and reconnect with what makes you feel truly alive.
Course Structure:
Four full days, split into **two independent weekend workshops** â join one or both!
**If you are new to improv it is recommended that you do Workshop 1 before you do Workshop 2.**
#### **Workshop 1: Play, Presence & Relationships (16-17 May)**
**Saturday**: Weâll explore the playful side of being human â how we learn and grow through curiosity, experimentation, and even failure. At the heart of this is presence: being fully in the moment, responding to what is actually happening rather than what we think should happen.
**Sunday**: Weâll focus on the relational side of being human â how our identity is shaped and revealed in connection with others.
#### **Workshop 2: Polarities, Stories & Meaning (13-14 June)**
**Saturday**: Weâll explore the inner tensions we all carry â the different pulls, needs, and paradoxes within us. Instead of fixing them, weâll practice holding them with presence and curiosity, and see what wisdom emerges.
**Sunday**: Weâll explore how we create meaning through stories â how patterns form in our lives, and how shaping or breaking those patterns can lead to more honest and life-giving stories.
**Sign up** by clicking the blue button on [Improv for life - Improv Utrecht](https://www.improvutrecht.nl/improv-for-life/) or go to improv-utrecht.weticket.io

What previous participants say:
âI feel more resourceful, more playfulâand more me.â
âBefore, I thought my life was a mess. Now I knowâthatâs just a story I tell myself.â
âIt helped me see that I can choose my story, embrace both the good and the bad, and stay open to possibility.â
âI used to think I had no control over anythingâbut now I know that with awareness, I can influence a lot of outcomes.â

CBusData - Practical AI for Power BI Developers
Practical AI for Power BI Developers
A year ago, âagentic AIâ was mostly hype for Power BI teams. Today, it deserves your undivided attention. For Power BI pros, there is now a real opportunity to reduce repetitive development work, accelerate delivery, and help developers do more, but only when strong DataOps practices are in place to make AI workflows effective.
This session is a no-nonsense introduction to effective AI patterns for Power BI and Fabric development. Along the way, we will make sense of the growing pile of terminology, including skills, plugins, hooks, and MCP. You will see examples of how modern AI tooling can help with development tasks across Power BI and Fabric, along with the prerequisites, guardrails, and DataOps principles needed to use it responsibly.
Whether you're burned out on AI hype or already using Copilot CLI daily, this session will show you the foundations that are finally making AI-assisted development genuinely useful.

Building Scalable Customer Identity Resolution Pipelines on AWS Using AI
Customer identity resolution becomes increasingly complex as organizations scale across multiple systems, regions, and data formats. Traditional rule-based approaches often fail to keep up with data variability, require constant manual tuning, and struggle with real-time processing needs.
This session presents a practical approach to building a scalable identity resolution pipeline using AWS services and modern AI techniques. The architecture combines data ingestion through Amazon S3 and AWS Glue, transformation pipelines using Spark on EMR, and machine learning models deployed via SageMaker for entity matching and standardization. Graph-based relationship modeling is implemented using Amazon Neptune to improve resolution accuracy by incorporating household and shared attribute context.
We will walk through how machine learning models can be used for name and address normalization, how intelligent blocking strategies improve matching efficiency, and how feedback loops can be introduced to continuously improve accuracy. The session also highlights how serverless components such as AWS Lambda can be used for orchestration and real-time processing.
