*„Ha a gyerekek pusztán az ész szavára jönnének a világra, vajon fennmaradna-e az emberiség?"* Arthur Schopenhauer. (A program magyar nyelven zajlik.) Az antinatalizmis egy kényelmetlen kérdést tesz fel: **Erkölcsileg igazolható-e, hogy új embert hozzunk a világra?** Egy olyan világban, amit szenvedés, bizonytalanság, egyenlőtlenség és társadalmi törékenység jellemez, egyes filozófusok amellett érvelnek, hogy meg nem születni jobb lehet, mint megszületni. Ez az alkalom az antinatalizmust járja körül, olyan gondolkodókon keresztül, mint Schopenhauer és David Benatar. De ez már rég nem pusztán filozófiai kérdés. Ma a születési ráták a világ nagy részén zuhannak. Az államok ösztönzőkkel, korlátozásokkal és népesedéspolitikával avatkoznak be. A technológia elválasztja a szexet a terhességtől, a szaporodást pedig magától az emberi testtől. Ez az alkalom a születést és az antinatalizmust a **filozófia, a demográfia, a politika és a technológia metszéspontjában vizsgálja.** **Bevezető (15 perc) Rövid vendégbemutatóval indítunk.** **Megbeszélendő kérdések (1 óra 45 perc):** 1. Ha lenne lehetőséged választani, szeretnél újra megszületni? 2. Lehet-e valaha is etikus életet ráerőltetni valakire a beleegyezése nélkül? 3. Mondhatjuk-e értelmesen, hogy valaki „jobban vagy rosszabbul jár", ha sosem létezik? 4. Mennyi szenvedés elég ahhoz, hogy az életet ne legyen érdemes elkezdeni? 5. Mi a rosszabb: kockáztatni a szenvedést vagy megtagadni magát a létezést? 6. A társadalom nyomást gyakorol-e az emberekre, hogy szaporodjanak a gazdasági vagy kulturális túlélés érdekében? 7. Ha az antinatalizmusnak igaza van, mi következik belőle? Örökbefogadás? Önkéntes kihalás? 8. Lehet-e egy új élet létrehozása erkölcsileg semleges tett vagy jobb egy már meglévő életet folytatni? 9. A gyerekvállalás a remény cselekedete vagy a tagadásé? 10. Lehet-e egy olyan társadalom, ami nem szaporodik, még politikai közösség? Vagy már csak adminisztratív? Az antinatalizmus politikailag destabilizáló? (Film: The children of men, Hannah Arendt) 11. Befagyna-e a politika generációs utánpótlás nélkül? 12. A halhatatlanság megszüntetné a fejlődést — vagy stabilizálná? 13. A halhatatlan társadalmak alapértelmezetten konzervatívvá válnának-e? 14. A „gyermekvállaláshoz való jog" feltétlen vagy feltételekhez kellene kötni? Ha az örökbefogadáshoz szűrés kell, miért nem kell a biológiai szülőséghez is? 15. Milyen következményei lennének, ha a mesterséges méhek működőképessé válnának? 16. Mi történik, ha a szaporodás technikai folyamattá válik emberi helyett? (Ajánlott dokumentumfilm: „The Man with 1000 Kids" a Netflixen) 17. Az egygyermek-politika etikai katasztrófa volt? Vagy brutális, de racionális válasz az anyagi korlátokra? Ha a túlnépesedés tömeges szenvedést okoz, erkölcsileg védhető-e valaha a kényszerű születésszabályozás? 18. Ha a szülők súlyos betegségekre szűrik az embriókat, az eugenika vagy felelősség? 19. Miért erkölcstelen az állami szelekció, de a piaci szelekció elfogadható? 20. A hagyományos nukleáris család az egyetlen erkölcsileg elfogadható módja a gyereknevelésnek? **RSVP:** Kérjük, erősítsd meg a részvételedet a Meetup oldalon.

Practice Buddhist meditation in the middle of Budapest! The meditation is suitable for beginners. Each regular meditation is guided and begins with a short introduction. (all together is about 30-40 minutes) Our regular Buddhist meditations have proven popular with people who want to integrate authentic Buddhist methods into their daily lives. For the modern lay person who is juggling work, relationships, and an active role in society, we teach a meditation that is easy to learn, and profound and powerful for experienced practitioners. The meditation originates from the Karma Kagyu tradition of Tibetan Buddhism. It has a cumulative effect on mind, leading to greater clarity and calmness. Fearlessness, joy, and active compassion are the result of regular practice of Buddhist meditation. * Do I need any special clothing? No special clothing needed. * Does the attendance cost anything? No, the meditation is free.

Our regular **group meditation begins at 7:00 PM** (please arrive earlier if you’d like to join, we are open from 6:00 PM). Following the meditation, we warmly invite you to a **Buddhist lecture on the Teacher-Student Relationship** from the Diamond Way perspective. Lecture **begins at 8:00 PM**. Exploring the connection between teacher and student, its meaning, depth, and practical relevance in everyday life. We look forward seeing you there! _"A lama only has one role to fulfill: helping his students to find the fearless space that he himself has conquered, thus making them independent."_ Lama Ole Nydahl

Projects that are over budget, delayed, or that fail to scale past the POC phase are very common. In many of these scenarios, choosing the right approach can be as critical as the solution itself. Should you build a tailored machine learning model, leverage the power of large language models (LLMs), or integrate with AI copilots? Each option has unique strengths, trade-offs, and resource requirements, and the key to success lies in aligning your choice with your business goals and technical constraints. In this talk, we will go beyond the basic concepts and definitions to provide a practical guide that allows attendees to navigate these decisions through real-world case studies. We will examine scenarios in which different AI paradigms were chosen, discuss the factors that influenced those decisions, and outline the process for evaluating needs, constraints, and outcomes. From assessing data availability and team expertise to balancing cost and scalability, you'll gain insights into the critical considerations that guide the selection process. By the end of this session, you’ll have a clear process for determining whether machine learning, LLMs, or copilots are best suited to your AI challenges and understand the resources and strategies needed to bring your chosen solution to life. This talk is ideal for decision-makers, technical leads, and innovators seeking to demystify AI implementation and maximize the impact of their investments.

**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

We will show a variety of methods for building agents that run in Microsoft Foundry. This covers the different types of agents: Prompt, Multi, and Hosted, as well as the development lifecycle using evals and traces.

**In March we will be making protest signs form carboard, paper, thick markers, and more! All supplies are provided, seats are limited! Come As you are, when you can; hope to see you there!**
