So hast du andere Leute in Wien wahrscheinlich noch nie kennengelernt! Bis zu 10 Singles, die sich zuvor nicht kennen, treffen sich in einer Bar und lernen sich bei einem eigens für diese Veranstaltungsreihe entwickelten Spiel näher kennen. Das Spiel kombiniert eine gelungene Mischung aus Fragen, Aktionsaufgaben und lustiger Unterhaltung, die alleine oder als Team gemeistert werden. Durch verschiedene Aufgaben und Fragen kommen die Spieler in direkte Interaktion miteinander und lernen sich im Spielverlauf näher kennen. Im Vergleich zur klassischen Single Party lernst du bei Socialmatch wirklich nur Singles in deiner Altersgruppe kennen und kommst von ganz alleine ins Gespräch mit den anderen Teilnehmern. Ein Spielmoderator vor Ort informiert über den Ablauf und leitet durch den Abend. Sicher dir jetzt deinen Platz beim nächsten Event unter [[www.socialmatch.de](http://www.socialmatch.de/)] und lerne neue Leute in deiner Stadt kennen. Dieses Event ist für die Altersgruppe 20 - 35 Jahre. P.S. Socialmatch erhielt 2015 bereits einen Award für das Konzept, teste es selbst ;-) **Achtung: Nur mit Buchung über die Website ist eine Teilnahme möglich!**

Agenda: 18:00 Doors open 18:20 welcome, doors closing.. 18:30 From Reactive Streams, through Virtual Threads, to Flows - Adam Warski 19:30 break 20:00 Armeria: The Microservices Framework You Haven't Tried Yet - Dominik Dorn 21:00 networking **From Reactive Streams, through Virtual Threads, to Flows** Since Java's inception, the programming model has shifted from synchronous to asynchronous, and for good reasons: improved performance, higher throughput, and lower latency. Reactive Streams greatly simplified the development of reactive systems by incorporating elements of functional programming. However, with the introduction of Virtual Threads in Java 21, Java shifts back towards a purely synchronous model, while retaining high performance. Does this render initiatives like Reactive Streams obsolete? Can we combine the benefits of Reactive Streams with the approachability of Virtual Threads, the elasticity of modern Java, and the guarantees of functional programming? And what are the tradeoffs? **About Adam Warski** Adam Warski is the co-founder of SoftwareMill and head of R&D at VirtusLab, where he primarily generates code using Java, Scala, Rust and other interesting technologies. He is actively involved in open-source projects, such as Ox, Jox, Tapir, sttp, and others. He has also been a speaker at major conferences, including JavaOne, Devoxx, GeeCON and ScalaDays. In addition to writing closed- and open-source software, he spends his free time exploring various programming-related subjects. Any ideas or insights he gains usually end up on his blog ([https://warski.org/articles](https://warski.org/articles)). **Armeria: The Microservices Framework You Haven't Tried Yet** "One port to rule them all" .. that's the promise of Armeria, the microservice framework created by the creator of Netty, Trustin Lee. Armeria has built-in support for gRPC and Thrift, automatic endpoint descriptions (OpenAPI) and works with your Spring Boot App, your legacy Tomcat project or your dropwizzard app. We'll take a look at these (and more) features in this talk. **About Dominik Dorn** Dominik Dorn is a senior software engineer in Vienna and has been running the Java Vienna Meetup since \~2009. He has extensive knowledge in the Java and Scala ecosystems. He sometimes "tweets" on [https://x.com/domdorn](https://x.com/domdorn) . You can also find him on [Linkedin](https://www.linkedin.com/in/dominik-dorn/) where he happily accepts new connections from the community. He is doing freelance software consulting, so if your company needs help, he might have some resources left for helping you.

There's something about tango that gets under your skin. You watched it, or tried it once, and something in you probably felt really good. Because tango is connetion in the present moment. Tango Fundamentals 1 is a structured 6-week course designed to take your tango journey through the basic steps and figures of Argentine tango. This is not just about copying moves - but rather actually understanding how tango works. The connection, the lead and follow, the conversation between two people through movement. By the end of these six weeks, you'll understand the basic concepts of tango, the etiquette of milongas, how to invite someone to dance - and you'll actually be able to dance. **What's included:** * 6 weekly classes - every Monday, 75 minutes each * Bonus 4 online evenings - stretching, strength, technique and mindfulness to support your body and focus in your Tango Journey * 1 Practica at the end - a real social dance to put it all together **Investment:** €165 full price, €125 for students. There is an option for classes without an online offer. Just write me a message. Single class: €28 / student €22 **This is for you if:** * You've tried tango once and want to go deeper * You've always wanted to learn but never knew where to start * You want a real foundation, not just a one-off workshop Spots are limited - this is a small group, so everyone gets proper attention. Drop a message here or reply directly to reserve your spot. 🙏

We are pleased to welcome Katrina Brock from Max Planck Society to present an R package for analyzing animal movement data. Join us to explore how R can be put to work in animal behaviour research. **Travel Paths: Bridging the usability gap in open source animal movement algorithms** The behavior ecology literature offers a rich library of approaches for finding patterns in animal movement data. While many of the biologists developing these algorithms publish their code, it is rarely optimized for reuse. Even well-designed packages with similar workflows have different interfaces that potential users need to learn one by one. By wrapping these algorithms in a standardized interface, the “Travel Paths” framework reduces researcher toil. Instead of digging through scripts and learning disparate conventions, they can run many methods with just a few functions. The framework is composed of two packages: the trackframe package provides a flexible and interoperable format for input data while the travelpaths package, taking inspiration from parsnip, offers the interface for movement models. In this talk, we’ll discuss how we designed this framework and how it can be leveraged to enable even novice R users to apply a variety of methods to their animal movement data.

**Does your LLM speak the same language as you?** *Context, Language & AI in Domain‑Driven Design* Zutaten allein reichen nicht. In Domain‑Driven Design (DDD) entscheiden Kontext, gemeinsame Sprache und Abgrenzung über gute Software – und über sinnvolle Nutzung von LLMs im Unternehmen. In diesem Meetup verbinden wir strategisches DDD, Ubiquitous Language und AI: * Warum Kontext wichtiger ist als Zutaten (erklärt am italienischen Dinner) * Warum gemeinsame Sprache kein Glossar, sondern ein Arbeitsinstrument ist * Wie viel Kontext ein LLM wirklich braucht – und warum unser Team denselben braucht Wir diskutieren LLMs nicht als Ersatz für Zusammenarbeit, sondern als **Verstärker von gutem Domain‑Wissen**. **Agenda** * Quick Intro: Kontext als roter Faden * Strategisches DDD: Zutaten ≠ Lösung * Ubiquitous Language: Sprache als Entscheidungsgrundlage * LLMs im Business: impliziter vs. expliziter Kontext * Diskussion & Q&A **Timeline** 🚪 17:00 Open doors 🎬 17:30 Official start 🍕 19:30 Pizza and Networking \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- **English Version:** Does your LLM speak the same language as you? Context, Language & AI in Domain‑Driven Design Ingredients alone aren't enough. In Domain‑Driven Design (DDD), context, shared language, and clear boundaries determine good software – and the meaningful use of LLMs in an organization. In this meetup, we connect strategic DDD, Ubiquitous Language, and AI: Why context matters more than ingredients (explained through an Italian dinner) Why shared language isn't a glossary, but a working instrument. How much context an LLM really needs – and why our team needs the same We discuss LLMs not as a replacement for collaboration, but as an amplifier of good domain knowledge. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- Dieses Meetup ist eine Zusammenarbeit mit dem [DDD Vienna Meetup](https://www.meetup.com/ddd-vienna/events/314052752/?).

This is a group for meeting new people, eating brunch, and having discussions about science, life, philosophy, politics, and people. Anybody is free to join, and we charge no fees. This discussion group aims to have the absolute minimal level of structure necessary to ensure the conversation remains engaging to the majority of people present. In particular, we \*don't\* have fixed order of speaking or timed statements. So far, the balance we've struck is enforcing hand raising when conversation gets intense in order to minimize interruption, and to give the chair (me!) the power to occasionally call a snap election on the conversation topic.

Summer is arriving in Vienna - and so is our next AWS meetup! ☀️ For our June edition, we’re going back to building: serverless architectures, modern cloud workflows, and a touch of AI to explore how these worlds increasingly connect in real projects. A big thank you to **Eversports** for supporting the community and making the meetup possible! 🙌 *** 📍 **Location** Eversport GmbH Jakov-Lind-Straße 13 H/5.

AWS Lambda Durable Functions change that. You write sequential code in a single Lambda function that can suspend for days and resume instantly, and you only pay for active compute time. In this session, we will orchestrate Amazon Bedrock conversational agents using the Sinch Conversation API to handle inbound interactions. You will learn how to dispatch AI specialists, use simple callbacks to wait for asynchronous human input, and replace heavy infrastructure boilerplate with native durable execution. **"How RBI is automating its cloud foundation with AWS Step Functions"** *Speaker:* **[Roman Jokel](https://www.linkedin.com/in/roman-jokel/),** Cloud Architect (Raiffeisen Informatik) **/ [Florian Ettinger](https://www.linkedin.com/in/florian-ettinger/),** Solution Architect (AWS) *About the talk:* How can AWS Step Functions transform daily cloud operations? Join us to explore how RBI is using workflow orchestration to automate its cloud foundation.

Agenda (preliminary) 18:00 doors open 18:20 welcome 18:30 **A Tour of Ox 1.0: Direct-Style Concurrency and Resiliency** 19:30 break 20:00 **Maybe(!): "Orca: Deterministic, AI-driven development flows"** 20:00 **Maybe(!): "Sandcat: Docker & dev container setup for securely running AI agents"** 21:00 Networking **A Tour of Ox 1.0: Direct-Style Concurrency and Resiliency** Ox provides a toolkit for safe concurrency and resiliency for Scala on the JVM. After two years of prototyping, we’re delighted to showcase the final product. With Ox, you can build and deliver direct-style Scala applications today. In the code-first presentation, we’ll begin with concurrency (including lower-level structured concurrency scopes and higher-level concurrency operators). Next, we’ll proceed to Ox’s approach to error management and type safety in that area. We’ll then explore Ox’s direct-but-reactive streaming library before concluding with its built-in resiliency toolkit. Software is never finished, so we’ll also share what lies ahead for Ox specifically and our plans for direct-style Scala generally. **About Adam Warski** Adam Warski is the co-founder of SoftwareMill and head of R&D at VirtusLab, where he primarily generates code using Java, Scala, Rust and other interesting technologies. He is actively involved in open-source projects, such as Ox, Jox, Tapir, sttp, and others. He has also been a speaker at major conferences, including JavaOne, Devoxx, GeeCON and ScalaDays. In addition to writing closed- and open-source software, he spends his free time exploring various programming-related subjects. Any ideas or insights he gains usually end up on his blog ([https://warski.org/articles](https://warski.org/articles)). **Maybe(!): "Orca: Deterministic, AI-driven development flows"** Orca Flow scripts orchestrate coding agents. No need to try to convince the LLM that reviewing code until all review comments are fixed is a good idea - the script will ensure that's the way it will be done. No need to spend tokens on calling a code formatter, switch branches or creating PRs. Orca Flow scripts are written in Scala, and executable using scala-cli. That's the only component you'll need to install - everything else will be downloaded on-the-fly. Orca Flow scripts read like Python, but are type-safe, so you can know that your script will execute just fine. Orca works with Claude & Codex (now), but the plans are much wider than that! **Maybe(1): "Sandcat: a Docker & dev container setup for securely running AI agents** Sandcat is a Docker & [dev container](https://containers.dev) setup for securely running AI agents. The environment is sandboxed, with controlled network access and transparent secret substitution. All of this is done while retaining the convenience of working in an IDE like VS Code. All container traffic is routed through a transparent [mitmproxy](https://mitmproxy.org/) via WireGuard, capturing HTTP/S, DNS, and all other TCP/UDP traffic without per-tool proxy configuration. A straightforward allow/deny list-based engine controls which network requests go through, and a secret substitution system injects credentials at the proxy level so the container never sees real values.

**The Behavior Gap: Where Products Win or Lose** Teams today have more data than ever, and yet many still struggle to understand why customers adopt, engage with, or abandon their products. Teams sprint, ship faster, and chase more signals… all while metrics stall and confidence drops. The missing piece isn’t more data. It’s often the behavioral insight between the metrics, explaining why the numbers move in the first place. Dashboards can tell you what customers did, but understanding why they did it (and how to influence what they do next) requires a deeper blend of insights. This session is about closing that gap. Drawing from real-world experience designing and scaling products as [ZoCo Design](https://zocodesign.com/)’s CEO, [Lacey](https://www.linkedin.com/in/laceypicazo/) will share how to cut through the noise and identify the insights that actually change behavior—moving people, and moving metrics. You’ll learn: * Why understanding customer behavior is a quant and qual challenge * How to spot the signals that actually predict behavior change * Where AI accelerates insight, and where it creates distraction * How to get meaningfully closer to customers, without adding more tools This talk reframes how to evaluate performance and identify what levers actually improve it, helping your team to make smarter bets with greater confidence. Every meaningful outcome is driven by behavior change. And when you know how to design for behavior, you stop guessing, and start building things that work. **About Our Speaker** [Lacey Picazo](https://www.linkedin.com/in/laceypicazo/) is the Founder and CEO of ZoCo, a healthcare product studio that turns complex, high-stakes ideas into products that drive real-world adoption.
