Halo Bitcoiner Bekasi! 👋
Dunia sekarang makin terasa “ramai”—banyak perubahan, banyak ketidakpastian, dan arah ekonomi global pun nggak lagi satu suara. Di tengah kondisi seperti ini, muncul pertanyaan menarik: apakah ada aset yang bisa jadi tempat berlindung? 🤔🌍
Di meetup kali ini, kita bakal ngobrol santai tentang Bitcoin sebagai *safe haven* di dunia yang semakin multipolar. Bukan buat klaim atau janji berlebihan, tapi untuk memahami kenapa banyak orang mulai melirik Bitcoin sebagai alternatif di tengah dinamika global yang terus berubah. ⚡
Kita akan bahas bagaimana perubahan kekuatan ekonomi dunia bisa mempengaruhi nilai uang, kenapa ketidakpastian sering bikin orang mencari “perlindungan”, dan di mana posisi Bitcoin dalam cerita besar ini. 💭
Menariknya, dari diskusi ini kita bisa melihat Bitcoin bukan cuma dari sisi teknologi atau harga, tapi sebagai bagian dari respons terhadap kondisi dunia yang terus berkembang. Dari situ, perspektif kita biasanya jadi lebih luas. 💡
Meetup ini cocok buat kamu yang ingin memahami Bitcoin dari sudut pandang global, sekaligus melihat bagaimana konteks dunia saat ini ikut membentuk cara orang memandang aset dan nilai. ✨
Seperti biasa, suasananya santai dan terbuka. Kamu bisa tanya, diskusi, atau sekadar menyimak juga nggak masalah. Yang penting, kita sama-sama belajar. 🤝
Yuk gabung dan lihat bareng-bareng bagaimana Bitcoin diposisikan di tengah dunia yang semakin dinamis. Siapa tahu, dari obrolan ini kamu menemukan sudut pandang yang baru. 🚀⚡

SHUT! UP! AND! WRITE! #57 ✍️ with Jakarta Writers
Hello, Jakarta Writer! **Are you a member of [Jakarta Friends](https://www.meetup.com/jakarta-friends/) yet?**
Want to see **pictures** of past events? **[Take a look here](https://www.meetup.com/jakarta-creatives/photos/)**[!](https://www.meetup.com/jakarta-creatives/photos/) And feel free to upload a few pictures you might take at the event 😊
JakWri and JakFri is **the** biggest, first, most active, and most inclusive MeetUp community in Jakarta… and we invite you to join us for this **SHUT! UP! AND! WRITE! #57!**
Everyone is always welcome to join our events. Our community is all about creating authentic in-person connections in this urban jungle. Come as you are... it’s the best version of yourself.
**ABOUT THE EVENT**
So, you want to write? Then shut up and write! Writing is 0.01% "inspiration" and 99.99% getting down to it.
We will meet for a circa **2-hour writing session at Dunkin' Donuts Fatmawati**, a quite outlet in the heart of Jakarta Selatan.
It doesn't matter if you are an established writer or if you are picking up pen and paper for the first time. **Just show up, get down to it, and start writing.** Everyone will be working on their own thing, and we won't talk during writing. If you need some prompt or suggestion on what to write, I'll be happy to give you some ideas.
After the circa 2-hour writing session session, we will switch off our laptops and close our notebooks (but if you want to keep going, feel free!) and chill down. We can also share each other texts and give feedback, if that's something someone would like to do.
**The rules of the game:**
1. We aim to start together in order not to disrupt the process for everyone. Please be on time.
2. No talking at the table during writing! After arriving at the table, we will focus on our own writing
3. You can take as many breaks as you want of course
Don't be late as we want to start writing together, and please do **update your RSVP at least 24h before the event** if you cannot come, else you will take away a spot from a person in the waitlist. Don't be that persons! **Repeated no-shows will be kicked from the group.**

Stop Guessing: How to Measure and Improve LLM Outputs
Most people use LLMs by feel: ask a question, read the answer, decide whether it “seems good,” and move on.
That works for casual use. It does not work when you are building software, automating workflows, writing important documents, or relying on AI for anything that needs to be repeatable.
In this talk, we’ll look at how to improve and evaluate the inputs and outputs of LLMs using practical measurement techniques. We’ll cover how prompt changes affect results, how to compare outputs, how to build simple evaluation sets, and how math-based methods like similarity scoring can help you move beyond guesswork.
This will be beginner-friendly, so even if you don't know anything about AI, you should get something out of it. However, this will be a little more technical than our intro talks. You do not need to be an AI researcher, but programmers and technically curious attendees will get a lot out of it.
We’ll cover:
* Why “it looks good” is not enough
* How to improve prompts by changing the input, context, and constraints
* How to compare LLM outputs more systematically
* Basic evaluation techniques for accuracy, consistency, and usefulness
* How embeddings, cosine similarity, and scoring can help evaluate results
* Where automated evaluation works — and where humans still need to stay in the loop
By the end, you’ll have a practical mental model for treating LLMs less like magic and more like systems you can test, measure, and improve.
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.

**A Few Notes:**
✅ This is an **in-person event**
✅ **RSVP does not guarantee a seat** – A confirmation email will be sent one day before the event.
**TALK ABSTRACT:**
Docker Compose and Kubernetes are two of the most popular tools for running containerized applications. Their feature lists are similar. Architects and senior developers need to know how their different paradigms lead to unexpectedly different experiences in production.
IxDA Chat n Pancakes
You can sleep in on the Sesquicentennial (observed), we’re shifting to the following Friday.
But join the local UX community for a chat and some biscuits to catch up. If you were in CA for Figma Config, tell us all the lines and you can tell me how I can animate an SVG without coding it by hand, and why I’d even want to.
Thanks to the team at Nationwide of supporting the group.
Columbus Ruby Brigade Monthly Meetup
**\*\*\* We've Moved! Bold Penguin - 6555 Longshore St, Dublin, OH 43017 \*\*\***
Talk by
## [Kyle Jenkins](https://www.linkedin.com/in/kyle-jenkins/)
**Unpacking Process Anti-Patterns: Lessons from Ideation to Delivery**
In the fast-paced world of software engineering, processes often shape success or sow frustration. Over the years, recurring anti-patterns have emerged well-meaning practices that unintentionally create inefficiencies, stifle innovation, or harm team dynamics. These pitfalls, though rooted in good intentions, can derail projects and undermine trust when left unchecked.
Through real-world examples and two decades of industry experience, this presentation unpacks common process anti-patterns across the software lifecycle. With a focus on fostering understanding, not blame, we’ll examine how flawed workflows contribute to challenges and how reversing them can empower teams to build clarity, creativity, collaboration, and trust.
**AGENDA:**
* See updates to parking below
* Doors open at 5:30, feel free to come and hang out before!
* Official start of the meeting is at 6:30pm
* After the meeting is done, we will go hang out at a nearby space in Bridge Park!
If you can, please sign up via meetup by noon the day of the meeting so we can have an estimate headcount for food :) We always order extra, so feel free to join us even if you don't get signed up!
Thank you to Bold Penguin for providing the food and location!
**Parking & Arrival:**
**Parking:** Parking in Bridge Park is free. The closest lots are the Mooney Garage and the Hotel/Endres Garage.
**Entry:** The doors to the office are to the right of PINS. The street level door and elevators lock at 6pm. If you arrive after that, someone should be there to let you in, else call the number posted. Take the elevator to the 2nd floor. Once you exit the elevator, turn right.
\*\*\*
We are a bunch of professionals, students, and geeks who are excited about Ruby programming language ([http://ruby-lang.org/](http://ruby-lang.org/)) and Rails framework ([http://rubyonrails.com/](http://rubyonrails.com/)) and the joy they have brought back to web development. Our main goal is to share the love of the Ruby and Rails ecosystems with anyone that is interested. We cater to everyone, whether a non-programmer through advanced Rubyists.
* We give lectures on programming topics
* We freely provide decades worth of experience
