As of this month, the book is also available in all Netherlands-based bookstores. To celebrate this event, the [Agile Consortium](https://www.agileconsortium.nl/) and the LeSS company are inviting you to the official book launch at [Sopra Steria](https://www.soprasteria.nl/) in Nieuwegein. During this session, Roland will present the book 10X ORG: A manager’s guide to elevate business performance with people and AI. Released at the twenty-fifth anniversary of the Agile Manifesto, the book distills decades of hard-won insights on agility and organisational transformation. Which patterns in org design have proven truly unbreakable? How well are we actually unlocking the full potential of our people? And how can we harness AI to reshape our organisations — making them not just efficient, but fit for the future? Ultimately, what will it take to build a world of work our children will thrive in? Besides highlighting the key learnings of the book, Roland will also be sharing why they wrote the book, how the writing process went, and there will be time to answer questions in a Q&A. This talk will summarize the learnings from the 10X ORG book and touch upon the underlying concepts of Org Topologies. You will leave with key insights and, above all, with new questions to explore about organization, learning, and performance. We will close the session with an opportunity to purchase the book, and have it personally signed by Roland. **As we're making use of nice catering, please actively manage your RSVP and let us know if you have any dietary restrictions.** **Date: Thursday April 29th** * 17:00 Walk-in * 17:30 Buffet * 18:00 Talk by Agile Consortium: the impact of AI on our professional field / the successful application of AI requires responsiveness on people, team and organization level * 18:30 10X ORG and 25 years of Agile Transformations * 19:30 networking & drinks Location: Sopra Steria [Ringwade 1, 3439 LM Nieuwegein](https://www.google.com/maps/place/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x47c5c939362b986f:0xa7dc68348aa9f7b6?sa=X&ved=1t:8290&ictx=111) Free Parking

The **program** will go as this: * 17:00-18:00 Walk-in * 18:00-18:05 Welcome * 18:05-18:50 1st Talk: **Jan Stomphorst (ACC-ICT)** * 18:50-19:30 Pizzas * 19:30-20:15 2nd Talk: **Benjamin Smeding &** **Merijn Stiekema (ProRail)** * 20:15 - 21:30 Networking & drinks * 21:30 End 1st Talk: **Title:** **Kubernetes and the Answer is… 42!** The ultimate checklist for deploying your app without regrets. You built the app. You wrote the Dockerfile. You pushed to your CI/CD pipeline. But... is it really ready for Kubernetes? This talk hands you the one thing every team needs but rarely has: a no-fluff, field-tested, brutally honest checklist of 42 points to verify before you deploy. This is an interactive session from beginner to expert. You’ll learn: How to avoid the most common mistakes in Kubernetes deployments What actually matters in production — and what doesn’t How to think like a platform engineer, even if you're a developer Why checklists save you from 3 AM incidents Interactive, opinionated, and painfully relatable. This is not another Kubernetes 101 — this is the list you wish you had a year ago. Don’t panic. Just check it. **Speaker: Jan Stomphorst** Bio: Ik ben Jan Stomphorst, Solutions Architect van beroep. Ik werk al 25 jaar in de IT en ondersteun organisaties met hun applicatieontwikkeling met behulp van nieuwe technieken zoals Kubernetes. Samen met mijn team werk ik momenteel veel aan Kubernetes projecten, nieuwe implementaties en ben ik voortdurend bezig met het testen van nieuwe tools en technieken. In mijn vrije tijd kook ik graag en houd ik van bbq-en. Wat ik zo geweldig vind aan deze podcast is dat ik als IT'er mijn kennis kan en mag delen met andere IT'ers. Het voelt daardoor een beetje als een opensource project, waarbij ik hoop ook feedback van onze luisteraars te ontvangen. 2nd Talk: **Title: Getting ProRail on Track with Kafka on Kubernetes** Safety and reliability is of high importance to ProRail, which contradicts innovation. A new movement has however started to implement Kubernetes to allows teams to more easily build, host and manage their applications. During this talk we will talk about how the Integratie team uses this technology to provision Kafka (using Strimzi) for a new integration platform. This will be a tale that starts with ClickOps and abandons it all in favor of GitOps using Terraform, ArgoCD and other CNCF projects. We will also share our vision of the integration platform of the future. abstract **Speakers**: **Benjamin Smeding &** **Merijn Stiekema** Benjamin: Solution Architect at ProRail with more than 10 years in the rail sector. My background is in rail design and embedded safety systems. At ProRail I work on event streaming and help promote cloud-native and open-source technologies. Merijn: DevOps Engineer at ProRail. For the past 1.5 years, I have worked on cloud enablers like Kafka and API Management in Azure, provisioning platforms and building tools for health checking and self-service. I enjoy combining software engineering with DevOps and automating processes so teams can onboard and build faster. Outside of work, I have a passion for open source and love building things in my free time. **Photography/Video consent:** We will be taking photos and videos during the event and will use these photos and videos for social media and promotional materials.

#This meetup is around a third-party organizer (Focus Filmtheater): you can either purchase your ticket online or right before the session# **Title**: Silent Friend **Language**: German **Subtitles**: English **Length**: 147 min **Director**: Ildiko Enyedi More **info**: [https://www.focusarnhem.nl/agenda/english-subs-silent-friend/](https://www.focusarnhem.nl/agenda/english-subs-silent-friend/) **Ticket link**:[https://www.focusarnhem.nl/tickets/143041/](https://www.focusarnhem.nl/tickets/143041/) **Silent Friend** A mesmerizing reflection on humans, trees and how we might communicate… No trees are actually hugged in Silent Friend, but arboreal adoration has never blossomed on screen as lushly as it does in this contemplative, nature-focused feature from Hungarian writer-director Ildiko Enyedi. Not so much a narrative-driven drama, this is more a contemplative reverie about people, trees, the world and their interconnections, anchored around an ancient ginko tree standing in the middle of a German botanical garden. **How it works**: I will be at Focus around 18:30, where we can meet before the movie starts. You can message me to find us. Screening starts at 19:00. After the movie, we can have a drink together. Hope to see you soon!

**ArnhemJUG** We are excited to announce that we are welcomed by Entrnce for the April meetup. **Agenda** * 17:00 CET walk-in * 17:30 – 18:30 Food and drinks * 18:30 – 19:30 talk: **Better Assertions with AssertJ** by **Tim te Beek** * 19:30 – 19:45 break * 19:45 – 20:45 talk: **Reproducible Builds with Apache Maven** by **Hervé Boutemy** * 20:45 – 21:30 drinks **Better Assertions with AssertJ** Not all testing libraries are equal. Sure they all run your tests, but what happens when they fail? “Expected ‘true’, was ‘false’” won’t help you much. Your choice of library determines whether you can immediately jump to a fix, or first have to debug for more details. And with JUnit 6 and AssertJ 4 around the corner, it's high time for an upgrade! In this talk we'll explore AssertJ, and the fluent assertions API it provides. We'll contrast this to alternatives like JUnit and Hamcrest, and show how subtle differences improve the experience. Now you can finally have unified fluent assertions for all your tests, with a clear path to get there. For existing AssertJ users we will optimize its use to get more expressive assertions and meaningful messages from existing tests. Finally, a quick few OpenRewrite recipes help you apply all these best practices at once, and continuously going forward. **About** **Tim te Beek** Tim te Beek is a staff software engineer at Moderne, which automates software refactoring at scale. He has extensive experience contributing to and presenting on Open Source software within the Java ecosystem. Previously he worked as a consultant specializing in migration engineering and developer productivity. **Reproducible Builds with Apache Maven** Reproducible Builds is listed as a requirement for SLSA security Level 4, to achieve the highest level of confidence and trust in software. Such a level seems far away from achievable practice for normal humans. In reality, most Linux distributions implemented it over the last 10 years. And in the past 6 years, this practice is being extended to Java Open Source projects with great success: more than 6,200 releases from 800 Open Source projects published to Maven Central are publicly proven reproducible (and counting). In this session, we'll demystify Reproducible Builds for Java based on the experience gained while rebuilding these Open Source projects. We'll dig into the tools to improve your Maven builds and check the effective results: the journey is full of great learnings that go far beyond advanced security. **About Hervé Boutemy** Hervé started with Java when it was in beta, built his first Java projects with Make (yes) then Ant: but life changed with Maven 1... Life changed even more when growing from OSS user during working day to becoming an active OSS contributor to Maven 2 during nights and week-ends. Today, Hervé works as Solutions Architect for Sonatype on next steps of the build journey, promoting best-practices around Software Supply Chains. On the OSS front, Hervé is an Apache Software Foundation member and Apache Maven PMC Chair. He's also involved in many advanced projects like CycloneDX, SPDX, sigstore, and Reproducible Builds.

'CONVENIENCE STORE WOMAN' by Sayaka Murata 'Keiko Furukura had always been considered a strange child, and her parents always worried how she would get on in the real world, so when she takes on a job in a convenience store while at university, they are delighted for her. For her part, in the convenience store she finds a predictable world mandated by the store manual, which dictates how the workers should act and what they should say, and she copies her coworkers' style of dress and speech patterns so that she can play the part of a normal person. However, eighteen years later, at age 36, she is still in the same job, has never had a boyfriend, and has only few friends. She feels comfortable in her life, but is aware that she is not living up to society's expectations and causing her family to worry about her. When a similarly alienated but cynical and bitter young man comes to work in the store, he will upset Keiko's contented stasis--but will it be for the better? Sayaka Murata brilliantly captures the atmosphere of the familiar convenience store that is so much part of life in Japan. With some laugh-out-loud moments prompted by the disconnect between Keiko's thoughts and those of the people around her, she provides a sharp look at Japanese society and the pressure to conform, as well as penetrating insights into the female mind. Convenience Store Woman is a fresh, charming portrait of an unforgettable heroine that recalls Banana Yoshimoto, Han Kang, and Amélie.' ***Please read the book and join us for a lively discussion (in English) about the contents during our afternoon book club meeting.*** \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- **PLEASE NOTE:** This is an IN-PERSON event in Amersfoort, The Netherlands.
