Analog Advantage: The Benefits of Running Workshops the Old Way
If your days are a blur of digital meetings, and you feel that spark of true collaboration is fading, you're not alone!
Join us for this meetup to learn how to push back against it.
Here’s a promise:
In this meetup, you will experience what real collaboration with real human beings in 3D feels like.
But not only that! You will learn:
* Why people come up with better ideas and remember more when they’re in workshops without screens
* How to use post-its and flipcharts to max their advantage against virtual whiteboards
* How to smoothly bring outputs from your analog meetings into the digital world
All that will be supported by real experience running real workshops (both analog and digital) in MSD and beyond.

Ackee Meets: QA testing v době AI
### Ackee Meets: Vol. 4 – QA v době AI je tady! 🤘
2026 jsme vyhlásili jako rok *Ackee Multiverse*.✨🔮 Po předchozích dvou meetupech (Mobile Development + Frontend & Backend) pokračujeme hráčem hrajícím často neviditelně v pozadí – Quality Assurance\*\*.🕵️\*\* V době AI.
Kód sice dneska vzniká „sám“ a AI chrlí jeden řádek za druhým, ale ruku na srdce – s rychlostí roste i kreativita nových chyb a v šesti verzích excelové tabulky se AI ztratí stejně rychle jako člověk. Otázka už dávno nestojí tak, *jestli* nás stroje nahradí, ale jak tenhle technologický chaos ukočírovat, aby z toho nevznikl jeden velký fuckup.
Přijďte na další Ackee Meets, kde si ukážeme, **jak vypadá skutečná detektivní práce moderního testera, jak pomocí AI postavit interní appku a zkrotit firemní hardware a proč je přístupnost produktů klíčová nejen pro legislativu, ale hlavně pro lidi.**
🚫 **Kapacita je omezená – registrujte se zdarma přes [Eventbrite](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/1984893095681?aff=oddtdtcreator).** Interakce tady na meetupu nestačí.
**CO NÁS ČEKÁ:**
**📣 Svět QA po nástupu AI agentů**
🎤 **Madina Akramova,** *tester*
Ještě nedávno QA kontrolovalo hlavně výstupy vývojářů. Dnes kusy kódu generují AI agenti – rychleji, než stíháme reagovat, a s úplně novým typem chyb. Podíváme se na to, jak se mění každodenní práce testerů a kde AI reálně pomáhá při návrhu testů, analýze zadání i hledání rizik. Práce testerů nekončí, jen se posouvá jinam, protože kód sice možná vzniká „sám“, ale ta pravá detektivní práce stejně zbývá na nás.
**📣 Jak dostat HW chaos pod kontrolu (i pomocí AI)**
**🎤 Dominik Fabián**, *Tester*
Firemní HW žijící v šesti verzích jednoho Excelu, který nikdo pořádně neudržuje – známe to všichni. Ukážeme si, jak jsme tenhle chaos zkrotili a pomocí AI postavili interní aplikaci pro správu zařízení. Cíl byl jednoduchý: přestat lovit informace a konečně mít přehled, který fakt funguje.
**📣 Proč je přístupnost digitálních produktů klíčová a jak ji testovat**
**🎤** **Tomáš Samseli,** *tester*
Navrhovat digitální produkty bez ohledu na přístupnost je sice legislativně riskantní, ale hlavně lidsky hloupé. Podíváme se na reálné překážky, se kterými se handicapovaní uživatelé potýkají, a ukážeme si praktické tipy z testování přístupnosti přímo v Ackee. Podíváme se, jak vytvořit aplikaci, kterou může bez nervů používat opravdu každý. WCAG si přečetl málokdo – problémy najdeš i bez toho.
* 🗓️ **Kdy**: 24. 6. 2026 od 17:00 (open door)
* 📍 **Kde**: Ackee, Block Karlín, 6. patro
* **💸 Za kolik:** Zdarma – ale nutná registrace přes Eventbrite
**Program:**
* **17:00** 🚪 Vstup
* **17:30** 1️⃣ Madina Akramova: **Svět QA po nástupu AI agentů**
* **18:00** 2️⃣ Dominik Fabián: **Jak dostat HW chaos pod kontrolu (i pomocí AI)**
* **18:30** 3️⃣ Tomáš Samseli: **Proč je přístupnost digitálních produktů klíčová a jak ji testovat**
* **19:00** 🍕 Networking
* **21:00** 🔚 Konec akce, jde se domů!
🚫 **Kapacita je omezená – registrujte se zdarma přes [Eventbrite](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/1984893095681?aff=oddtdtcreator).** Interakce tady na meetupu nestačí.
Těšíme se! 🤙

## Dołącz do Microsoft Build Community Event we Wrocławiu! 🚀
Dołącz do społecznościowego wydarzenia dla deweloperów, skupionego wokół nowości z konferencji Microsoft Build! Tym razem wchodzimy na wyższy poziom pracy z AI i od samego początku bierzemy na warsztat wdrażanie, monitorowanie oraz uczenie agentów sztucznej inteligencji w środowisku produkcyjnym.
Agenci AI rzadko zawodzą podczas demówki – prawdziwym testem jest dla nich produkcja. Podczas tego spotkania skupimy się w całości na praktycznym warsztacie z wykorzystaniem Microsoft Foundry. Niezależnie od tego, czy dopiero eksperymentujesz z AI, czy wdrażasz już zaawansowane rozwiązania – to intensywne spotkanie pozwoli Ci zrozumieć, jak skutecznie optymalizować, oceniać i bezpiecznie wdrażać produkcyjne systemy agentowe.

Solstice Sessions — Atlassian Insights & Midsummer Cheers
Midsummer Atlassian Nights: Governance, Users & Team '26 Fresh from Anaheim
June 25, 2026 · 5:00–9:00 PM · SentinelOne Office, Prague
Summer is almost here — and we're celebrating it the ACE Prague way: with sharp technical sessions, a live panel straight from Atlassian's biggest event of the year, and a midsummer beer garden to close out the evening.
Join us on June 25th for one of our most packed evenings yet. Two expert speakers. A panel discussion bringing Team '26 insights direct from Anaheim. And then — we head outside.
🎤 Session 1: When Atlassian User Management Stops Being an Admin Problem Björn Döhler · re:solution
Nobody wakes up excited about user management. And yet, again and again, it's the silent culprit behind some of the biggest headaches in modern organizations — exploding license costs, broken accountability, risky migrations, and decisions made without reliable data.
This session tells a story — or rather, several — about how these situations unfold in real life, what teams usually miss until it's too late, and how thinking differently about user management can change the outcome. No sales pitch. No "ten features in ten minutes." Just stories, lessons learned, and a glimpse of what becomes possible when user management stops being invisible.
🎤 Session 2: From Zero to Hero — Data Governance Can Be Easy Hubert Kut · AppForge.ai
Data governance sounds intimidating. It doesn't have to be.
Hubert will walk you through how to perform comprehensive health checks on your Jira instance, automate the cleaning process, and improve data quality — without it becoming a full-time job. You'll leave with actionable practices that make Jira management more straightforward, your system more performant, and your users a lot happier. Whether you're just starting out or looking to tighten up an already complex environment, this one's for you.
🗣️ Panel Discussion: Fresh from Team '26 — What Atlassian's Biggest Event Means for You
All three of us — Björn, Hubert, and your host Julia Skoursky — were in Anaheim in person for Team '26. Now we're bringing it back to Prague.
What actually happened? What announcements matter for admins, partners, and teams using Atlassian tools every day? What's coming, what surprised us, and what should you be preparing for? This panel is your shortcut to the highlights — unfiltered, first-hand, and with room for your questions.
🍺 Midsummer Beer Garden
When the sessions wrap, we're not done. We're heading outside to celebrate the longest days of the year the right way — cold drinks, good company, and the kind of conversations that only happen when the sun refuses to set.
This is your chance to keep the discussion going with speakers and fellow community members in a relaxed, informal setting. Midsummer only comes once a year. Make it count.
🤝 About ACE Prague
ACE Prague is a free, community-led meetup for Atlassian users, admins, partners, and enthusiasts across Czechia. We meet quarterly to share knowledge, swap real-world experience, and grow together as a community. No vendor pitches — just honest, practitioner-level content and genuine connection.

Customize the IDE: Building Extensions for Visual Studio Code - Alan Barber
**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**
*Customize the IDE: Building Extensions for Visual Studio Code*
Visual Studio Code is one of the most widely used development environments today, and much of its flexibility comes from its extension ecosystem. Extensions allow developers to customize the editor with new features, integrations, and workflow improvements tailored to their needs.
In this session, we’ll cover what extensions are and the different types available, including full extensions written in TypeScript or JavaScript, along with lighter-weight extensions such as color themes, language packs, language support, code snippets, and keymaps. We’ll also look at practical reasons a developer might create an extension, from automating repetitive tasks to adding custom tooling.
The session includes a hands-on walkthrough of creating a new extension, testing it locally, and understanding the basic project structure. We’ll close with a brief overview of how extensions are packaged and published to the Visual Studio Marketplace and other distribution options.

Dear Illinois Prairie PUG members,
Thank you to everyone who attended PG DATA 2026! The conference is over, but our meetups are back, and more Postgres content is coming!
Those of you who attended our May meetup are already familiar with our new (hopefully permanent) location. For others, please note that we will meet at **Chicago Innovations, 1 W. Monroe**.
This time, we are trying a two-talk format.
\- Zach Paden will present the talk **Declarative schema management with pgschema.**
\- Anna Bailliekove will present the talk **PostGIS Quick Start**
More details on talks and speakers coming soon!
*Agenda*
5:20 - doors open
5:30 - pizza arrives
6:00 - 6:10 - Hettie D. Opening remarks
6:10- 6:40 - Zach. Declarative schema management with pgschema.
6:45 - 7:10 Anna: PostGIS Quick Start
7:10 - 7:50 - Open discussion and networking
7:50 - 8:00 - Cleanup time and closing
**Speaker**: Zach Paden
Zach Paden is a tech lead at Symetra with experience ranging from scrappy startups, consulting, to large regulated enterprises. His work spans data platform, analytics and application development where he’s seen more than his fair share of projects get bogged down or catch on fire due to their schema management practices.
**Talk Title:** *Declarative schema management with pgschema*
**Talk description**
Lots of app devs struggle to understand the concept of versioning database migrations, and managing the history of these migrations can become difficult even with existing tools. Using pgschema you can write pure-sql decoratively and let pgschema derive a series of valid online migrations.
**Speaker:** Anna Bailliekova
Anna Bailliekova has been moving data around professionally for 15 years. Currently a staff engineer XeoMatrix, she focuses on helping organizations mature their data engineering practice, optimization problems, and geospatial data applications.
**Talk title:** PostGIS Quick Start
**Talk description**
PostgreSQL provides rich support for geospatial computing; using transportation examples, we will take a brief tour of these features for those who want to but have been scared to try.
*Notes about our new venue*.
I am delighted to have an independent venue for the first time since I am hosting the meetups. I hope that this will be our permanent home. And as you all know, with more freedom comes more responsibilities.
\- You will notice the change in the RSVP form\.
\- We are thankful to our hosts and promise to be responsible\.
\- We comply with the [PostgreSQL Code of Conduct](https://www.postgresql.org/about/policies/coc/).
\- We do not want to waste food\, so please indicate your dietary preferences\.
\- We will not close RSVPs on the morning of the meetup\, but please do your best to RSVP in advance so we can order the appropriate amount of food and drinks\.
\- We want to start offering **on-site daycare**. If you indicate on your RSVP that you are planning to use daycare, we will contact you closer to the event with more information.
