Sono proprietario di un bar e dispongo di un tavolo da biliardo semi-professionale. Sto creando un gruppo WhatsApp di giocatori amatoriali di biliardo americano pool/carambola, per la maggior parte debuttanti. Cerco persone disposte a unirsi al gruppo per giocare e divertirsi nel tempo libero, il pomeriggio oppure la sera in ogni giorno. Per stimolare l'impegno di ogni giocatore, abbiamo pattuito che il vincitore di ogni "mini-torneo" organizzato nei vari giorni giochi gratis e non paghi la tariffa di tempo per il periodo di gioco (un'ora di gioco costa 10€, ma viene di volta in volta frazionata in base al periodo di gioco effettivo). Il locale si trova in zona nord di Milano, stazione Greco-Pirelli, università Bicocca. Chiunque dovesse essere davvero interessato a partecipare e unirsi al mio gruppo, non esiti a contattarmi. Cerco persone serie e disposte solamente a divertirsi, senza puntare mazzette grazie mille. Antonio

**Hello PyData People!** We are excited to announce our next event of 2026! This time, we will be hosted at **FlixBus Italia**'s headquarters in Milan for an evening dedicated to X 📅 **When:** Tuesday, June 23rd, 2026 – 18:30–21:00 📍 **Where:** FlixBus Italia, Corso Como 11, 20154 Milan ⚠️ **Important:** Spots are limited. Please keep your RSVP updated to allow others to participate if you can no longer attend. \*\*\* **🕒 Agenda** * **18:30:** 🚪 Doors open & Check-in * **19:00:** 🎤 **Talk 1:** Process geographical data in Python – Jacopo Farina * **19:45:** 🎤 **Talk 2:** Symbolic Differentiation of Matrices and N-Dimensional Arrays in SymPy – Francesco Bonazzi * **20:30:** 🍕 **Networking & Social Dinner** \*\*\* **🎤 The Talks** **1️⃣ Process geographical data in Python** Speaker: Jacopo Farina (Staff Data Engineer @ FlixBus) In this talk, we are going to see how to process data from OpenStreetMap, public transport data (like the schedule from ATM) and other sources to calculate travel distances in a city, find addresses, find where and when people are using bike sharing (BikeMI) and nice things that can be done with this data. We are also going to see what OSM is and how it represents geographical data, how this data can be imported and used in Python (using PostGIS or DuckDB), how to process it and how to display the results. About the Speaker: Jacopo Farina is a data engineer at Flixbus, where he works on the demand forecasting, and a teacher at the Data Science Retreat in Berlin. Previously he worked on the backend using Node.js, reporting and ETL. \*\*\* **2️⃣ Symbolic Differentiation of Matrices and N-Dimensional Arrays in SymPy** Speaker: Francesco Bonazzi (PhD in Physics and Software Developer @ Intesa Sanpaolo) Numerical frameworks such as PyTorch and JAX routinely compute matrix and tensor gradients via reverse-mode automatic differentiation (backpropagation) to train neural networks. By contrast, there has been a notable absence of symbolic implementations that produce exact, closed-form gradient expressions interpretable and well-suited to further algebraic manipulation. SymPy, an open-source computer algebra system written in Python, now provides comprehensive support for symbolic differentiation of matrices and N-dimensional arrays. The implementation gives users flexibility to work with either matrices or arrays, which can be handled in two ways: explicitly, by defining each component individually, or implicitly, as symbolic expressions. In the explicit case, the derivation algorithm is straightforward: the derivatives essentially amount to nested loops over the array dimensions. By contrast, the implicit algorithm is considerably more intricate, especially when deriving expressions that involve matrices. After outlining the key aspects of this algorithmic design, the talk showcases its practical value through selected examples that illustrate how closed-form symbolic matrix and tensor gradients can provide valuable insights and enable exact computations in various applications. About the Speaker: Francesco Bonazzi is a software developer and core maintainer of SymPy, a Python computer algebra system. He has contributed extensively to the library's physics, matrix algebra, tensor algebra, and probability modules. Currently, he works at Intesa Sanpaolo, focusing on the research and implementation of generative AI. Francesco holds a PhD in Physics and previously served as a researcher at the Max Planck Institute for Colloids and Interfaces in Germany and North Carolina State University in the U.S. \*\*\* **See you there! 🚀** **The PyData Milano Team**

🔍 **Description** Dai discorsi di apertura alle chiacchierate informali, Platmosphere ha lasciato una scia di idee. Questo meetup riassume le conversazioni che hanno suscitato maggiore interesse e spiega perché stanno influenzando l'evoluzione delle piattaforme e dei AI-native teams. * **Dal "Vibe Coding" al "Vibe Engineering"**: come abbandonare la generazione caotica di codice tramite prompt estemporanei per passare a un approccio ingegneristico governato, focalizzato sul definire il comportamento atteso del software e sul gestire in sicurezza il codice scritto dagli agenti AI. * **Il Dato come Fondamenta dell'AI (Data Fabric):** L'intelligenza artificiale non può funzionare su dati grezzi o silos isolati, ma richiede un'infrastruttura in tempo reale, pulita e arricchita di metadati per evitare fallimenti e operare in totale sicurezza operativa. * **Compliance-by-Design**: La compliance (come AI Act, GDPR e normative di settore) smette di essere un freno burocratico a valle dello sviluppo e diventa un requisito architetturale nativo automatizzato direttamente nei flussi della piattaforma. * **Composable Enterprise e Orchestrazione**: Per scalare la fiducia e la velocità di mercato, le aziende devono incapsulare le loro logiche in moduli riutilizzabili (Packaged Business Capabilities) orchestrati attraverso ecosistemi aperti, abbattendo i colli di bottiglia storici tra i vari team. * **Osservabilità e FinOps per gli Agenti AI**: L'adozione di agenti AI richiede l'estensione dei framework di monitoraggio per tracciare percorsi decisionali non-deterministici e l'integrazione di sistemi FinOps predittivi per controllare i costi nascosti legati al consumo di token. 🎙️**Speaker - Giulio Roggero** 25 anni di esperienza in software engineering, imprenditore seriale con oltre 10 iniziative imprenditoriali lanciate; oggi è co-founder e CTO di Mia-Platform de AI-Native Developer Platform Foundation nominata da Gartner “Cool Vendor” per Software Engineering Technologies e inserita nel Magic Quadrant delle piattaforme applicative cloud. Aree di interesse principali: AI, cloud native, platform engineering, data fabric ed omnichannel experience. Ama dipingere miniature di Blood Bowl, costruire con i Lego, assemblare e guidare modellini di auto radiocomandate e imparare a suonare il pianoforte. **📝 Agenda** * **18.15**: Accesso e Networking (iniziamo a conoscerci!) * **18:30:** Welcome * **18:45**: Talk * **19:30:** Q&A * **19:45:** Pizza and drinks Nessun meetup è completo senza un momento conviviale. Durante la serata saranno offerte **bevande, birra e pizza** per facilitare il networking e continuare le discussioni in modo informale. **⚠️ Nota importante:** I posti sono limitati per garantire la qualità della conversazione durante la tavola rotonda. Assicurati di fare RSVP il prima possibile! **Ti aspettiamo per dare forma insieme al futuro dello sviluppo software!** **Se arrivi dopo le 18.45 chiama il numero 0258100828 per farti aprire**

🎤Super international event in Milan: English Standup Comedy Open Mic!🎤 Show will be on **EVERY Tuesday** at Ostello Bello Centrale. If you see on this app only you are going, don't worry about it, we have multiple channels to post our events and we've been organizing shows for three years, we always have a big crowd where you can meet lots of friends!! We also encourage people to go on the stage for a free drink if you have funny stories or jokes! It is a free entry but **donation based** show, leave us your donations at the end of the show so we can keep English standup comedy going in Milan. Follow us on instagram: **yellowdicomedy**

**ATTENTION** **The event is free, but in order to secure your spot, you have to register here** **[https://radixia.zohobackstage.eu/oc-03](https://radixia.zohobackstage.eu/oc-03 )** **Registered attendant will have priority entrance to the event** Halfway through 2026, OpenClaw is no longer a curiosity. The framework has moved into production: teams are running agents against real systems, the clone ecosystem continues to expand, and the conversations have shifted from "what is this" to "how do we operate it safely and at scale". After the strong response to our previous editions, we're back in Milano with the next chapter. This event combines the power of the cloud and the innovation of Agentic AI to explore how to bring claws into production. The event will be hosted at **Amazon Web Services** HQ in Milan. Whether you're already shipping agents in production, evaluating OpenClaw for a specific use case, or just want to understand where the ecosystem is headed, the session is built for engineers, architects, and tech leads working with AI agents day-to-day. ## **🔥 Agenda** **6:30–7:00 PM — Welcome & Networking** Opening, meetup presentation, and meeting networking. **7:00–7:45 PM — From personal agent to enterprise platform: why we built Ross** *Speaker: Giovanni Germani \-\- Head of Artificial Intelligence at Fastweb \+ Vodafone \| CEO @ NextMindLab* AI agents are rapidly moving from individual experimentation to increasingly mature forms of adoption, both in the consumer world and in the enterprise. With Ross, we started this journey by launching a global version as a secure B2C personal assistant, designed to make a useful, controlled, and reliable AI agent experience accessible to everyone. Now we are bringing this vision to the enterprise context as well, where requirements become more complex: governance, security, permission control, auditability, and a sustainable operating model. **7:45–8:30 PM — Inside Ross: toward an enterprise-grade AI agent, between secure runtime and integration platform** *Speaker: Mark Zampedroni -- Head of Product Development @ NextMindLab* Building an enterprise-grade AI agent doesn't simply mean taking an autonomous agent and putting it into production. It means progressively designing an ecosystem in which the model can act on enterprise systems in a useful, controlled, observable, and secure way. In this talk, we will describe the journey through which we are transforming Ross, our enterprise-grade version of OpenClaw, from an evolved prototype into a corporate asset ready for real-world scenarios. Part of the work has already been completed: controlled runtime, tool orchestration, execution isolation, action tracing, and initial governance mechanisms. Another part is still under construction: an increasingly solid permission management model, end-to-end auditability, operational security, and scalability across enterprise use cases. Particular focus will be dedicated to the creation of a dedicated platform to connect enterprise applications to Ross in a simple, standardized, and secure way. The goal is to enable teams to quickly integrate internal systems, APIs, workflows, and data sources, reducing technical complexity while maintaining centralized control over authorizations, credentials, logging, and usage policies. The talk will therefore offer a concrete look at what we have already built, the architectural choices we are consolidating, and the open challenges still ahead in bringing AI agents "with hands" into an enterprise context. **8:30–9:00 PM — Networking and Happy Hour** ## **💡 Why join?** After the first OpenClaw meetup in Milan, we're growing our community with this second event. We want to be your landing point for agent and OpenClaw development in Milano. Focused on business and devs, and everything that makes our claws thrive: * Understand why OpenClaw is accelerating in 2026 * See real-world use cases in action * Get hands-on experience in a supportive environment * Connect with Milan's emerging OpenClaw community * Find inspiration for your next project Bring your curiosity. Claws are on us 🦞🔥 **ATTENTION** **The event is free, but in order to secure your spot, you have to register here** **[https://radixia.zohobackstage.eu/oc-03](https://radixia.zohobackstage.eu/oc-03)** **Registered attendant will have priority entrance to the event**

**Summary** We will play TV-style game shows at [Game Show Battle Rooms](https://gameshowbattlerooms.com/columbus/) ("GSBR"). These will include *Family Feud*, *Wheel of Fortune*, and *The Price is Right*, and we will play them over the course of an hour. We ran this event for the second time back in October, and it was an even bigger hit than it was the first time we ran it the February prior. GSBR has nearly 10,000 reviews on Google and a 5-star rating. If there were any event where you were just about guaranteed to have a good time, it's this one. GSBR changes their questions and answers every month, so if you attended in October (or even if you went with another group as recently as April), you will not see any of the same questions you saw before. **The Date and Time of This Event** Saturday, June 27, 2026, at 3:00 p.m. However, if someone books the 3:00 p.m. time before I do (meaning before I have enough paid attendees), well, that's the way the cookie crumbles and we'll have to move to Plan B. That might involve trying for either one of GSBR's 1:30 p.m. or 4:30 p.m. slots, or just cancelling the Meetup altogether. We'll cross that bridge if we get to it, but be aware of these possibilities. Please arrive 15 minutes prior to whatever our actual showtime ends up being. (Hence, this meetup's 2:45 p.m. start time.) **Cost** The cost to play, per person, is $36.95 plus 8% sales tax of $2.96, plus a refundable 8% gratuity of $2.96 (see the next section for more details), for a total cost of $42.86 per person. **Mandatory Gratuity (If 20+ Participants)** If we have 20 or more participants in this event, GSBR will assess a mandatory gratuity of 8%, or $2.96 per person. If we have 20 or more attendees, GSBR will give our group an extra 15 minutes of playing time. I am collecting the gratuity up-front to prepare for the case in which we have at least 20 people. However, in the event that we do not, I will refund this $2.96 to you. In the event we have fewer than 20 people and your gratuity is refunded, your cost for the event will end up being $39.91 (instead of $42.86). I will say more below on the actual exchange of money for this event. **Drinks** GSBR does allow beverages into the game room, and they also sell some on-site. These include bottled water, soft drinks, and some alcoholic beverages. You can bring your own bottled water, too, if you want. **Cancellations and Refunds** Per GSBR's [website](https://gameshowbattlerooms.com/questions/): *If you cancel your show 5 or more days in advance of your booking time, you will receive a full refund.* *You may reduce the number of tickets and receive a refund if you provide at least 5-days’ notice.* More on this in a moment. **Number of Participants** GSBR does not run events for fewer than 6 people. I will not purchase tickets for this event with fewer than 10 paid, and I will not send out a solicitation for money without at least 12 signed up for this Meetup. More on this below. **The Actual Exchange of Money** Tickets for GSBR events are not purchased piecemeal. I will need to book our GSBR event as a bloc. This means that everyone will need to send me his or her entrance fee via either Venmo or Paypal prior to me booking our time. Anyone failing to send me his or her money will be removed by me from this event. Once 12+ people are signed up here for this Meetup, I will send out a DM through the Meetup messaging system to those 12+ participants with my Venmo/Paypal information. You will then have 72 hours to wire me your share of the money. After 72 hours, if I don't have money from you, I'll remove you from event. If I don't have money from at least 10 people, I'll refund everyone's money, and we'll either re-start the process or I'll just cancel the event. I'm not going to book any event with GSBR unless I'm reasonably certain we're going to be able to run it. Assuming I have money from 10+ people, then I will book the event through GSBR's website. If you decide to cancel and you want a refund, you ***must*** give me time to contact GSBR with at least 5 days notice. Since the date of this event is Saturday, June 27, you have to let me know not later than Sunday, June 21, to allow me time to call GSBR not later than Monday, June 22, in order to get a refund for your share. Once I have confirmation from GSBR for the refund, I will Venmo/Paypal the money back to you immediately from my account. (There will probably be a 3-5 day delay before GSBR actually processes the refund, but I will absorb the cost of the float and get your money back to you right away.) **"Hey, Eric! I just saw this event! Can I sign up late?"** Yes, but you still need to Venmo/Paypal your share of the booking fee to me, which will be $40.55. If I don't get it within 72 hours after you sign up (or time permitting for me to book you in with GSBR if you sign up last-minute), then I'll remove you from the event. **Mandatory GSBR Waiver Requirement** GSBR policies *require* that each attendee signs a liability waiver prior to the event. You can find the waiver [here](https://gameshowbattlerooms.com/questions/) (on the right-hand side toward the bottom of the page under the section "Do I Need To Sign A Waiver Form?"), and you should also be able to skip directly to the form [here](https://waiver.smartwaiver.com/w/5c473bb934d6a/web/). *You must fill out this waver in order to participate in the event*. The form is short and this really shouldn't take you more than 2 minutes, but please send me a DM if you have any issues filling out the document. **Denouement** Afterward, for those who are interested, we'll drown our sorrows or celebrate our exultations at [Crooked Can Brewing](https://crookedcanohio.com/) in Hilliard. They also have extensive food options. The actual address of the brewery is [5354 Center St, 43026](https://www.google.com/maps/place/5354+Center+St,+Hilliard,+OH+43026/@40.0339813,-83.1623519,17.25z/data=!4m6!3m5!1s0x883893f9f30108a7:0xbe4c8919aa69e3e7!8m2!3d40.0344541!4d-83.1598828!16s%2Fg%2F11gxsh9f_0?entry=ttu).

Dodgeball is back again! If you’ve been wanting to come out, this is an easy one to join. We’ll be playing for about 1.5 to 2 hours, you do not need to bring any equipment, and no experience is needed. We use a specific set of rules and equipment to make the games run better and keep them fun for everybody, not just people who already know how to play. If it rains, the event will be canceled.

Columbus Code & Coffee is an inclusive, informal co-working session. People of all skill levels attend, and we love it that way. Many people (optionally) bring projects to work on, and many other people (optionally) socialize the entire time. It's entirely up to you! **What to Expect at the Intro Circle** \~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~ Near the beginning of the event (1:30 pm), we do a standup: * Organizer announcements, updates, and logistics Round 1 - (7 secs max): * Your name * What you're working on * What you can help others with Round 2: * Community events you wanna plug. If none, that's cool too. Round 3: * Job opportunities you're hiring for OR announce that you are looking for one. If none, that's cool. After the introduction circle, everything is self-organized! Feel free to work alone, pair up, attend one of our workshops/presentations, or mingle!
