Offener Deutschunterricht - Text & Konversation - Niveau B2+ (Fortgeschritten)
In diesem Kurs beschäftigen wir uns mit verschiedenen Texten aus unterschiedlichen Bereichen. Das können u.a. kurze Geschichten, Gedichte, Zeitungsartikel, Kolumnen oder Videos sein. Immer sind es Themen, die uns gefallen, die wir besonders interessant, wichtig oder manchmal auch richtig schlecht finden. Gemeinsam versuchen wir die Position der Autor*in, den Stil und die Argumentationsstruktur zu verstehen. Dazu diskutieren wir über das, was wir verstehen, welche Meinung wir zu dem Thema haben oder welche Fragen offen bleiben.
Gerne könnt ihr uns auch Themenvorschläge mitbringen oder zuschicken.
Der Kurs richtet sich an interessierte Menschen mit einem B2-Niveau (oder so ähnlich), die Lust haben sich weiter mit der deutschen Sprache zu beschäftigen und ihren Wortschatz zu erweitern.
Die Termine sind sporadisch.
Umweltauswirkungen von Software "at scale" erfassen
Der König ist tot, es lebe der König. So könnte man das neue Projekt der **Green Software Foundation** umschreiben.
Nach Jahren der Entwicklung bei *Amadeus* (führender Anbieter von IT-Lösungen für die Tourismusbranche) wurde das Projekt in Teilen open sourced und der GSF übergeben.
Ziel von **Carmen** (Carbon Measurement Engine) ist es alle Emissionen über eine Vielzahl von Anwendungen zu erfassen. Somit tritt es faktisch die Nachfolge von „*Cloud Carbon Footprint*“ an und nutzt auch dessen Kennzahlen. Im Kern setzt Carmen auf das Impact Framework auf und bringt es in die reale Anwendung.
Zu Gast haben wir **Florent Morel**, der Kopf hinter Carmen. Er wird uns mit einem Deep Dive in das Tooling einführen und zeigt uns, wie wir Carmen konkret einsetzen können.
Hinweis: Der Talk ist auf Englisch

From Events to Boundaries: Hands-On Context Mapping
*This event is a collaboration with our friends from Domain Driven Design Berlin, check out their Meetup page [here](https://www.meetup.com/de-DE/domain-driven-design-berlin/) and sign up there!*
\-\-\-\-\-
**About the evening**
Join us for our next Berlin Collaborative Modelling session — a hands-on workshop where we'll build a Context Map from scratch.
Context Maps make the big picture of a system explicit: which bounded contexts exist, how they relate to each other, and where the friction, dependencies, and power dynamics between teams actually live. They help you make better decisions about integration strategies, team ownership, and where to invest in clean boundaries versus where to accept pragmatic compromise.
To get there, we'll use Event Storming as our starting point — laying out domain events to discover natural clusters of behavior, then drawing boundaries around them to identify candidate bounded contexts and subdomains. From there, we'll sketch out the relationships between contexts and discuss what patterns like Customer/Supplier, Conformist, or Anti-Corruption Layer look like in practice.
What to expect:
This is a collaborative, stickies-on-the-wall kind of evening. No laptops needed, no prior DDD experience required — just curiosity about how to make sense of complex systems. We'll work through a shared example domain together, so everyone starts from the same place.
**RSVPS:**
**Please sing up on the event page from [Domain Driven Design Berlin](https://www.meetup.com/de-DE/domain-driven-design-berlin/)!**
\-\-\-\-\-\-
**Code of Conduct**
We adhere to the [Berlin Code of Conduct](https://berlincodeofconduct.org/) to ensure a welcoming and respectful environment for all participants. The event space operates under largely compatible [Thoughtworks Meetups & Events CoC](https://www.thoughtworks.com/en-de/about-us/events/code-of-conduct-germany).
**Accessibility**
The Location is accessible for wheelchair users. This includes the entrance (no steps to get into the location), toilets and the stage.

AWS UG Berlin Workshop - Kiro Bootcamp
You built, you broke, and now you will learn! Agentic coders are a major breakthrough for developers, making work easier (then at times more challenging!) Think about how these tools evolved from providing simple code blocks to actively rewriting the code inside IDE.
As we, developers, engineers and designers, who are still learning how to use them, we need to understand the reasoning behind these tools and follow some best practices.
**Kiro Bootcamp - Learn from the Experts**
In light of all these, we kept our promise and are happy to organize a half-day long Kiro Bootcamp for you.
Thanks to **Rackspace Technology** we will be gathering in WeWork, inviting experts from AWS to introduce you Kiro, explain the critical parts, help with getting the most out of it.
This is a hands-on workshop with a practical deep dive into starting-up, running and optimizing Kiro. You work through independent tasks that you can pick and choose from, learning how to build, deploy, and operate your ideas on Kiro IDE. By the end of the workshop, we aim that you understand how Kiro works, what things you have to take into account at spec-driven development, and how you can integrate your Kiro IDE to external and internal tools.
This workshop is aimed at developers, designers, cloud specialists and product developers. While it is not necessary to have extensive knowledge on AI development, it is ideal that you install Kiro in your device and try to build some minor projects in advance.
**When?** 5th of May\, Tuesday\,\| 12:00 \- 17:00
**Where?** WeWork - Stresemannstraße 123, 10963 Berlin
**How?** Fill out this form to apply. Limited seats are available. You can only participate in the workshop if you receive a confirmation mail from us (**kadir@berlinawsug.de**).
You need to bring your own laptop to this workshop.
❗**Registration - Read Carefully**❗
Participation is free of charge. Your Kiro resource usage is also covered. You will be provided a sandbox Kiro account. Therefore, you won't need an AWS account!
❗Please register with your full name by filling out this form: **[https://forms.gle/PedkUUfJwVxoujVr8](https://forms.gle/PedkUUfJwVxoujVr8)**
❗You need to bring your own laptop to this workshop. Make sure AWS CLI is installed. Contact us if you're not sure how.
❗A confirmation e-mail from Meetup is not relevant. **You can participate only if you receive a confirmation from us: kadir@berlinawsug.de**

PBerg engineers - monthly meetup
**This is 100% non-profit. The 15€ sign up fee for everyone is only to minimize last-minute cancellations. The total sum goes to a bar-tap that everyone can use to order drinks until the amount is used up. ‼️NO REFUNDS‼️**
**‼️Please don't just show up without RSVPing here and paying the 15€. We have a separate room that has limited capacity and a specific drinks agreement with the bar - so splitting up the bill won't become a mess.‼️**
**Small update on how your money get's used from May 2024 onwards:** As of this month, meetup.com has started charging me 34€ instead of 16€ per month. I've decided to distribute this fee evenly among all us participants every month. Example: In the last 12 meetups, the average number of attendees was 17. With 17 attendees I would effectively collect 230€ (after fees). I would now substract 34€ leaving us with 196€ that go to the bar. 15% get's tipped to the wait staff, in this case 30€, leaving us with 166€ effectively to order drinks. Hope everyone is cool with this system. :)

[Golang & Java] free agentic coding workshop
Join us for a hands-on, collaborative **4-hour workshop** where we use LLMs to code. We will be implementing the following 3 exercises: [connect four](https://www.hellointerview.com/learn/low-level-design/problem-breakdowns/connect-four) [amazon locker](https://www.hellointerview.com/learn/low-level-design/problem-breakdowns/amazon-locker) and [elevator](https://www.hellointerview.com/learn/low-level-design/problem-breakdowns/elevator)
### **What we will do**
We will use the LLM (any free one, like chatGPT) to write code that solves a given problem. Our goal is to not write code by hand, and to produce an application that passes a set of specifications.
### 🛠 **Share ideas about agentic coding**
We will be practicing our agentic coding skills:
* bring a laptop with Java or Golang installed
* know how to code in either Java or Golang
* share and explore ideas about how to use LLMs to create production-ready applications
### 💬 **Atmosphere & Logistics**
The workshop is **free**. There will also be a 20 min pause, if you want to order snacks.
May Meetup: Superbooth Special!
Get ready for the **Superbooth Special** May iteration of our monthly meetup!
With the Superbooth trade show bringing many audio enthusiasts and professionals to Berlin, we're seizing the opportunity to host a larger gathering.
This month, we're moving to a bigger venue, **ForumFactory**, to accommodate up to 200 attendees, with a special focus on networking and community connection.
We have an exciting line-up featuring two talks from industry experts:
* **Juanpe Bolívar - CTO at BRONZE** (long talk)
In this talk we'll learn about persistence (immutable) data-structures and how they can be used to implement novel software architectures that make our software more efficient and responsive, but also easier to understand and modify. We will also how to efficiently persist these data structures across sessions, a novel technique in Immer, unseen in other implementations, that open the door to all new use-cases. We will also briefly show the Bronze Composer, a complex piece audio software that leverages these techniques.
* **Tobias Lønnerød Madsen - moonbase.io** (short talk)
Commercialising Audio Plugins - Going From Development to Sales and Beyond
Following the talks, there will be ample time dedicated to networking. Come meet other local (and visiting!) audio nerds and C/C++ programmers. Network or talk shop – all levels of skill are welcome in the group.
**Food & Drinks:** Free pizza will be provided as usual! Please note: for this special event, **drinks will not be complimentary**. However, there will be a bar at the venue where you can purchase beverages.
Doors open at 6 pm, talks will start at 6.30 pm.
We're looking forward to seeing many familiar and new faces for this special Superbooth edition!

CBusData - Practical AI for Power BI Developers
Practical AI for Power BI Developers
A year ago, “agentic AI” 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.
