Join us for a peaceful and uplifting Sunday afternoon at the Zurich Krishna Temple’s traditional Sunday Feast 🌸
Every Sunday, the temple hosts a vibrant cultural and spiritual gathering featuring mantra meditation, devotional music, wisdom talks, and a generous vegetarian/vegan feast. It’s a beautiful opportunity to experience Bhakti-yoga culture, connect with like-minded people, and enjoy a warm community atmosphere.
Our Plan
We’ll meet at St. Gallen train station at 11.0am and leave together by taking the 11.07am Train to Zurich. From Zurich station, we’ll walk as a group to the temple but you can also take public transport if you prefer that and then we can rejoin at the temple. They also serve lunch for everyone from 1-2pm which we plan to join as well.
About the Sunday Feast
The program typically includes:
• Mantra singing & bhajans (devotional music)
• Spiritual lecture & discussion
• Traditional temple ceremony
• Guided meditation
• Large vegetarian/vegan buffet feast
The festival begins at the temple from 3:00 PM and continues into the evening.

Chill, Swim & Plan Our Next Hike! ☀️🏊♂️
Very few people have signed up for my recent meetups. Because of that, I’m going to host a very simple meetup this time: sitting at Oberer Letten and planning our next hiking experience for June.
Bring your swimwear, maybe it will be warm enough to swim. The goal of this meetup is to have an event where we definitely get a few people together, which I can publish, and where everyone has fun. And of course: good conversations and sunshine!

Ensuring Software Quality in the world of AI Developers - Matt Eland

**Abstract**
Like it or not, AI agents are now capable of turning a quickly written paragraph of requirements into a pull request that is ready to be integrated into real-world production applications and it's now our responsibility to make sure AI doesn't go rogue and take down prod - or corrupt our data by misunderstanding the requirements or our existing schemas. In this session we'll explore strategies to protect our codebases through unit and integration testing, documentation, and code review along with additional ways of providing context and guard rails to our AI agents as they carry out the work we've assigned them to do. By the time we're done, you'll have a firm grasp of the problem and understand some helpful options for protecting your codebase from vibe coding mishaps getting YOLOed into prod.

Prompting Is Not Magic: How to Give AI Better Context
Most people use AI like a search box: they type one sentence, hope for the best, and get frustrated when the answer is generic, wrong, or useless.
But getting better results from tools like ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and other AI systems is not about memorizing magic prompts. It is about learning how to give the AI better context.
In this beginner-friendly session, we’ll break down how to make AI dramatically more useful by improving the way you communicate with it. You’ll learn how to give clearer instructions, provide examples, set constraints, ask for better output formats, and use follow-up questions to turn a mediocre answer into a genuinely useful one.
We’ll cover practical techniques you can use immediately for work, learning, writing, coding, planning, research, and everyday problem solving. We’ll also touch on why these same ideas show up in more advanced AI systems, including RAG, agents, evaluations, and AI workflows.
No technical background required. Bring your curiosity, your questions, and maybe one real task you wish AI was better at helping you with.
**What you’ll learn:**
* Why “better prompting” is really about better context
* How to structure requests so AI gives more useful answers
* How to use examples, constraints, and output formats
* How to iterate when the first answer is not good enough
* How these skills connect to more advanced AI workflows
This meetup is for anyone who wants to move beyond basic ChatGPT usage and start getting more practical value out of AI.
LOGISTICS AND PARKING:
The talk starts at 7:00 PM. The first half hour is reserved for everyone to get set up and mingle. Free pizza and drinks!
The cheapest parking option is to find street parking, which will only cost you a few bucks. Otherwise, park in the nearby veteran's museum lot for $8. It's highly recommended you avoid the nearby $15 garage parking.
