February Meetup
Join us at **Liip in Zürich** for our next Laravel Meetup! Enjoy an evening of great talks and good company with fellow Laravel developers. **First talk starts at 18:30**, doors open at 18:00. 1️⃣ **Design OS with Sandro Gehri** Kickstart your next project with DesignOS, a planning toolkit that guides you through a structured process from product idea to fully-featured vision. Tired of AI agents going off the rails? Sandro will demonstrate how you can build a consistent product vision with polished design, even if you're a backend developer like himself without formal design skills. 2️⃣ **Mago Toolchain with Stefan Zweifel** In our daily routines we often rely on PHPStan and PHP-CS-Fixer. Tools written for PHP in PHP. A new toolchain on the streets is Mago. Written in Rust. Written for Speed. 🗓️ **Schedule** * 18:00 Open doors * 18:30 **Sandro Gehri - Design OS** * 19:45 **Stefan Zweifel - Mago Toolchain** * 20:15 Mingling * 22:00 Closing Meet fellow Laravel developers, share your experiences, and enjoy a relaxed evening together.

Algorithmic Trading & Crypto
Algorithmic Trading & Crypto
## (Lesson 2) ## What to expect Project Equilibrium is an in-person introduction to disciplined, rule-based trading automation. This first event is designed to be clear, practical, and approachable no hype, no pressure, and no prior technical background required. ### Why we meet (two-session structure) This meetup is structured as **two lessons**: **Lesson 1 — The “Why” (mindset + framework)** * What Project Equilibrium is (and what it is not) * Why we focus on process, rules, and execution discipline * What “24/7 execution” means in practice * Q&A and open discussion **Lesson 2 — The “How” (step-by-step setup)** * A simple walkthrough of the basic tools you need * Step-by-step guidance to install and prepare the required exchange apps/accounts * A clear checklist to be ready for future sessions (You won’t be left alone—everything is explained calmly and in order.) ### What to bring To make the second lesson smooth, please bring: * **A smartphone** (for authentication and exchange app setup) * **A laptop** (for the setup steps and configuration) If you only have one device, you can still join Lesson 1. The setup lesson is simply easier with both. ### Who this is for * People curious about algorithmic execution and portfolio discipline * Beginners who want a structured approach * Experienced traders who want more consistency and less stress ### Agenda * Welcome + introductions * Lesson focus of the day (Why / How) * Guided walkthrough (where applicable) * Q&A + next steps ### How to find the group * Arrive a few minutes early and look for the **Project Equilibrium** group. * I will be there to welcome attendees if you’re unsure, simply ask the venue staff for the Meetup group name.
3 freie Plätze: Achtsamkeits-Retreat "Im Herzen der Stille"
3 freie Plätze: Achtsamkeits-Retreat "Im Herzen der Stille"
Während dieses viertägigen Retreats tauchen wir tief in die Praxis der Achtsamkeit ein und geben uns selbst den Raum, im Stillwerden zu erfahren, was wirklich wesentlich ist. Im Herzen der Stille entsteht ein Ort innerer Sammlung, wo Klarheit, Mitgefühl und Gelassenheit wachsen können. Ein Raum, um mit dem was ist, in Kontakt zu kommen und Schritt für Schritt mit sich selbst Freundschaft zu schliessen. Durch stille und geführte Meditationen, achtsame Körperübungen, sanftes Yoga und Impulse aus dem MBSR-Programm entsteht ein geschützter Rahmen, in dem Du Deine innere Präsenz stärken, Stress abbauen und mehr Bewusstheit entwickeln und Dich neu mit Ruhe, Vertrauen und Lebendigkeit verbinden kannst. Zeit für Dyaden, achtsames Gehen in der Natur, inspirierende Impulse/Vorträge und wohltuende, pflanzliche Mahlzeiten tragen dazu bei, dass Achtsamkeit nicht nur als Praxis, sondern als Haltung erfahrbar wird. Das Retreat findet im Schweigen statt, ausser bei geleitetem Austausch oder geführten Dyaden. Während dem Mittagessen am Donnerstag ist das Sprechen noch gestattet und auch wieder beim letzten Mittagessen am Sonntag. Etwas Achtsamkeits- und Meditationserfahrung sind erwünscht.

Dear all, we’re back with the PyData meetups, focused as always on sharing best practice, methodologies, analysis, machine learning systems, .., with the open-source projects of the [NumFOCUS](https://numfocus.org/sponsored-projects) program — but not only! We’ll meet **#InPresence on Thursday, February 26 at 7:00 PM**. We’ll be hosted by [Anda Venice Hostel](https://www.andavenice.com/) in the Medusa Room and, for those who cannot join us, it will also be on YouTube in **#streaming**. 👥 We’ll have two interesting sessions in English 🇬🇧: 🗣 [Alejo Nahuel Rossia](https://www.linkedin.com/in/alejo-rossia-2a1881225/) will present SMEFiT, a fully **#BayesianAnalysis** package for high-dimensional inference. The talk will cover its physical motivation, technical architecture, and efficient sampling via **#NestedSampling** and **#JAX** parallelization. 🗣 [Mario De Nisi](https://www.linkedin.com/in/mario-de-nisi/) will present **#Trading** Lab, a **#DataDriven** system for real-time **#portfolio** simulation using predictive models and multi-timeframe features.

Spec-Driven Development with GitHub Spec-Kit - Barret Blake
Spec-Driven Development with GitHub Spec-Kit - Barret Blake
**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you. The building address is 4450 Bridge Park The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400 You will need to scan your ID at the door to get a visitor badge. **Abstract** *Spec-Driven Development with GitHub Spec-Kit: From Intent to Implementation* Spec-driven development flips the traditional workflow on its head: instead of code being the source of truth, the specification becomes the backbone of design, collaboration, and delivery. In this session, we’ll explore how GitHub Spec-Kit enables teams to treat specifications as first-class artifacts—living documents that drive architecture, implementation, and verification. You’ll learn how Spec-Kit helps teams clearly express intent using structured, version-controlled specs that live alongside code. We’ll walk through a practical workflow that starts with defining system behavior and constraints, then progressively refines those specs into testable, automatable outcomes. Along the way, we’ll show how specs can reduce ambiguity, improve cross-functional collaboration, and make design decisions explicit before a single line of production code is written. This talk will cover: --What spec-driven development is (and what it isn’t) --How GitHub Spec-Kit fits into modern developer workflows --Using specs to align product, engineering, and AI-assisted development --Real-world examples of turning specs into implementations with confidence Whether you’re building greenfield systems, integrating AI into your stack, or trying to reduce costly rework, spec-driven development offers a scalable way to move faster without sacrificing clarity. Attendees will leave with concrete patterns and a clear mental model for adopting GitHub Spec-Kit in their own projects. **YouTube Link** TBA
