📍 Where: Hungary 🇭🇺 📅 When: May 18 -> May 25 📩 How to join: Feel free to contact me via Meetup chat or shoot me a DM on Instagram: pangolin_travel 📸 Hey everyone! 👋 Ready for an unforgettable road trip? 🚗✨ I'm organizing an adventure to explore the absolute best of Hungary's nature, lakes, and vibrant city vibes, and I'm looking for travel buddies to share the journey! 🚙💨 What to expect: 🌳🦇 This trip is the perfect mix of nature escapes and urban exploration. We will start our Monday by picking up our rental car in Budapest and hitting the road to discover the country's best-kept secrets. Having a car gives us total freedom to explore at our own pace and find the coolest hidden spots! 🌬️ We will hike through the beautiful, dense beech forests of the Bükk National Park 🌲 and explore the stunning volcanic hills overlooking Lake Balaton 🌋. Don't worry, you don't need to be a hiking pro! 🛑 The trails are intermediate, safe, and super rewarding. Depending on what the group feels like, we can also mix things up with some awesome optional experiences -> like joining a guided exploration of the hidden caves near the capital 🦇 or going for a chilled kayaking session on the lake 🛶. After all that nature, we will drive back to Budapest for an epic grand finale ✨. Expect an amazing balance of active days on the trail, scenic road trip drives, and relaxing our tired muscles in the famous historic thermal baths 🧖‍♂️. One of my favorite ways to end a day of exploring is finding a great spot to try new craft beers and traditional local food -> I am always on the hunt for a cold pint and good conversations at the Ruin Pubs! 🍻🍲 What is INCLUDED: ✅ 🏡 Accommodation: Top-rated social hostels to rest our legs, hang out, and meet great people! 🚗 Car Rental: Total freedom to reach national parks and lakes without train schedules. ⛽ Gas / Fuel: Covered for our whole road trip route. If you love active travels, sharing good vibes, and ending the day with a cold craft beer and lots of laughs, this adventure is for you! 🙌 Let’s go explore Hungary! 🇭🇺🔥

El objetivo de este encuentro es romper el hielo, hablar de las historias que nos gusta escribir, de por qué escribimos, de los libros que nos gusta leer, de qué dificultades encontramos al enfrentarnos al folio en blanco y de qué esperamos del grupo. En definitiva, se trata de conocernos como personas para entendernos como escritores. No importa si has escrito diez novelas, cuatro cuentos o el precioso título de un poema sin versos. Aquí todo aspirante a juntaletras es bienvenido.

🚀☁️ Visszatérünk a Shiwaforce-ba, itt a következő AWS User Group Budapest Meetup! ☁️🚀 Számlázás, reselling, partnerprogram – és egy AI agent, amely valós időben fizet a nevünkben. Ezen az estén az AWS gyakorlati, operációs oldala kerül a középpontba: változások, amelyek nem a tech hírek középpontjában szerepelnek, mégis közvetlenül érintik a mindennapi munkát. *** 🗓️ Program: **17:30 – Megnyitó** Balassy Mihály @ AWS User Group Budapest Rövid köszöntő, hírek a közösségről **17:35 – Hogyan változik az AWS partneri értékelése 2026-ban?** Hegedüs-Csapó Veronika – Business Development Manager @ TD SYNNEX Hungary 2026-ban az AWS nem csak technológiailag újít – a számlázás, a viszonteladói modell és a partnerprogram területén is jelentős változások zajlanak, amelyek sok céget közvetlenül érintenek. Veronika előadásában ezeket járja körbe: * 💳 Billing Transzfer – mi változott és kire hat? * 🔄 A reselling modellt érintő újítások * 🏅 Program- és kompetencia-változások – az adminisztratív kötelezettségtől a mérhető piaci előnyig **18:05 – Amikor az AI agentek fizetik a számlát: x402 élesben AWS-en** Varga György Márk – Product Developer @ Shiwaforce Az x402 egy nyílt fizetési protokoll, amelyet eredetileg a Coinbase fejlesztett ki, és ma már a Linux Foundation gondozásában fut – olyan nevek támogatásával, mint az AWS, a Google, a Stripe és a Visa. A HTTP 402 státuszkódra építve lehetővé teszi, hogy AI ügynökök és API-k közvetlenül, egyetlen webes kérés keretében fizessenek egymásnak – fiók, előfizetés vagy API kulcs nélkül. Az előadáson: * 🔍 Megértjük, hogyan működik a protokoll * ⚡ Élő demó: fizetős API CloudFront + Lambda@Edge segítségével * 🤖 Bedrock AgentCore-on futó ügynök, amely autonóm módon fizet * 🛡️ Governance réteg: költési limitek és engedélyezett célpontok kezelése **🎉 Zárás: Kvíz & Networking** Ajándékok is lesznek – szóval érdemes figyelni előadás közben! 😄 Majd jön a jól megérdemelt 🍕 pizza és 🍺 sör, és folytatódik a közösségi beszélgetés. *** Gyere el, találkozz az AWS közösséggel, értesülj elsők között a 2026-os változásokról, és lásd élőben, ahogy egy AI agent fizeti a számlát! 🤖💳☁️ Várunk szeretettel! 🤝✨

The language of this event is Hungarian. Az esemény a UX Budapest és a **Papírsárkány Alapítvány** közös szervezésű karitatív csapatépítője. Szeretnéd egy napra letenni a laptopot és valami kézzelfoghatót csinálni a közösségünkkel? Kíváncsi vagy, hogyan néz ki egy gyermekotthon mindennapja belülről? Szívesen adnál vissza valamit egy olyan helyen, ahol minden ecsetvonás számít? A Papírsárkány Alapítvány lehetőséget nyújtott nekünk egy önkéntes tevékenységre a bicskei **Kossuth Zsuzsa Gyermekotthon és Általános Iskolában**. A nap során festési és kerti munkákkal segítünk az intézmény megújulásában - közben pedig megismerjük az alapítvány munkáját, az otthon működését, és találkozunk azokkal, akikért az egész nap szól. A Papírsárkány érzékenyítő bevezetővel indítja a napot, így nem csak fizikai munkát végzünk, hanem értjük is a kontextust, amibe érkezünk. Videós is lesz kint, az anyagokat később a közösség kommunikációjában tudjuk felhasználni. **Választható feladatok, amikbe be lehet kapcsolódni:** * szekrények festése a folyosón * beugrók festése, padokkal * függönyök cseréje * rossz állapotban lévő asztalok lapjának cseréje * lépcsőkorlát festése zománcfestékkel * a kert egy részének rendbetétele **Dátum:** 2026.05.21. (csütörtök), egész napos program **Helyszín:** Kossuth Zsuzsa Gyermekotthon és Általános Iskola, Bicske **Férőhelyek** A férőhelyek száma **8 fő**.

Next AWS meetup is up to date. This chapter is dedicated to **cloud migration** and **a developer-first tour of the AWS services**. 🗓 **Save the Date**: Mark your calendar 🍕 + 🍺 = Let's gather around pizza and beer at **Hevre** or Watch the stream on [YouTube (link)](https://youtube.com/live/x2YENCV4jnU) Hosted by: **Maciej Lelusz**, AWS Hero AWS Community Builders: **Maria Kmita** 🎤 **Speakers**: 〰️ *„Cross-Account, Cross-Region,* *Cross-Fingers – Migrating a Live AWS Platform"* **Volodymyr Hordiienko**, DevOps Architect at Intellias 〰️ *„NET on AWS: Better Than You Think"* **Wojtek Dąbrowski**, AWS Hero 💡 Details about Speakers & Talks💡 **Volodymyr Hordiienko:** DevOps Architect with over a decade of experience in multi-cloud infrastructure, platform engineering, and delivery automation. Designs and builds production-grade environments across AWS, Azure, GCP, and hybrid on-prem - covering architecture, infrastructure-as-code, CI/CD pipelines, container platforms, security, and operational reliability. Has led cloud migrations, platform modernizations, and greenfield builds across industries, including telecom, healthcare, IoT, finance, and retail. ☞ will speak about: A practical AWS migration story about rebuilding a live platform from a single-account, manually managed setup into a governed multi-account delivery model. The talk covers Terragrunt/Terraform, ECS Fargate, RDS, S3, CloudFront, Lambda, Cognito, CI/CD, cross-account deployments, mobile release pipelines, enterprise IAM constraints, and the operational reality of getting an AWS platform truly ready for production. **Wojtek Dąbrowski**: is a Solutions Architect and backend engineer with over a decade of experience, working primarily with AWS. He stays hands-on with code and delivery, combining practical engineering with architecture and technical decision-making. Currently, he is a Platform Tech Lead at Northmill Bank. Since 2019, he has led AWS User Group Silesia in Poland, and in 2023, he was recognized as an AWS Hero. ☞ will speak about: Most people still assume AWS is not the natural home for .NET and treat C# as a “second choice” on AWS. That used to be a fair concern in some areas, but it’s no longer the reality. In this talk, we’ll walk through what building on AWS looks like when your primary stack is C# and modern .NET. We’ll take a developer-first tour of the AWS services that make .NET a strong fit: serverless workloads (APIs, async processing, event-driven systems), container platforms, and infrastructure-as-code written in C#. Along the way, I’ll show concrete patterns and trade-offs, including where .NET shines, where it’s neutral, and where you should be honest and pick a different tool. The goal is simple: leave with a clear mental model, practical options you can use immediately, and a refreshed view of what “.NET on AWS” can look like in 2026.

Come meet people and play new board games with the international members of the BFG Whatsapp group! [Link to join the chat is here](https://chat.whatsapp.com/JRYftbhepSxK3ugOb7Ceyy).

Customer identity resolution becomes increasingly complex as organizations scale across multiple systems, regions, and data formats. Traditional rule-based approaches often fail to keep up with data variability, require constant manual tuning, and struggle with real-time processing needs. This session presents a practical approach to building a scalable identity resolution pipeline using AWS services and modern AI techniques. The architecture combines data ingestion through Amazon S3 and AWS Glue, transformation pipelines using Spark on EMR, and machine learning models deployed via SageMaker for entity matching and standardization. Graph-based relationship modeling is implemented using Amazon Neptune to improve resolution accuracy by incorporating household and shared attribute context. We will walk through how machine learning models can be used for name and address normalization, how intelligent blocking strategies improve matching efficiency, and how feedback loops can be introduced to continuously improve accuracy. The session also highlights how serverless components such as AWS Lambda can be used for orchestration and real-time processing. **SPEAKER BIO** Mosaic Syed is a Senior Data Engineering and Cloud Solutions Architect with over 20 years of experience designing and delivering scalable, secure, and high-performance data solutions across global enterprise environments. https://www.linkedin.com/in/mosaic-basha-syed-92300856 **CALL FOR SPEAKERS** Learn more: [https://www.awscolumbus.com/get-involved/](https://www.awscolumbus.com/get-involved/) **THANK YOU** *VEEAM* for hosting our meetup!

**🥰 Face-to-Face Speed Dating Online for Singles near Columbus** Round by round, you'll sit down for quick private Zoom rounds with Columbus singles paired for compatibility by age and quiz, as a skilled host keeps the pace natural. On completing your sign-up, there is a short quiz about your personality and preferences — the matching data comes from to organise compatible Columbus locals for your session, so every round is informed by more than just looks. When it is all done, mutual matches are shared privately — strictly for mutual matches only — and you connect at whatever pace feels right to you. **Register by age group:** - **Ages 18-32** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=532.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Columbus&groupurlname=club-for-serious-connections-day-trips&ar=18-32&face_v=4.0) - **Ages 30-46** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=532.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Columbus&groupurlname=club-for-serious-connections-day-trips&ar=30-46&face_v=4.0) - **Ages 40-58** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=532.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Columbus&groupurlname=club-for-serious-connections-day-trips&ar=40-58&face_v=4.0) - **Ages 55+** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=532.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Columbus&groupurlname=club-for-serious-connections-day-trips&ar=55+&face_v=4.0) **⚠️ Please note:** This rsvp is not enough to hold your place in the rounds, so complete registration via your age bracket link and finish the short personality quiz — places close once the group is full so sign up early, and skipping either step means your place is not held. --- **This works best for:** - Women and men based in Columbus who have given up on conversations that fizzle before a first date and are ready for something genuine instead. - Members around Columbus finished with matches that fade out before meeting and want to try something that actually works. - First-timers near Columbus done with the app treadmill that goes in circles and are looking for real connection. **The format** 1. **Choose your bracket** – by clicking your age group registration link, then answer the personality questions, because registration and quiz together hold your seat. 2. **Log in** – by opening the Zoom link at the event start, works on any device without requiring a download, and the host takes over from that moment forward. 3. **Speed date** – short Zoom speed dating rounds with Columbus locals in your personality-matched group, while a host ensures every round feels natural, as the quiz results already did the work of choosing who you meet. 4. **Find out who matched you** – we reveal mutual matches once the session ends, and your details are only exchanged when the match is mutual, and the follow-up is yours to manage however feels right. ⭐ *"Did not think I would enjoy it but — laughed more than I expected"* – Columbus local, first event --- ✨ Meet Columbus singles from home — register before spots fill and the evening takes care of itself and we will get you all set up.

After all the rounds, match notifications go to both parties — with no one-sided reach-outs ever happening — and you decide your next step from there. **Your age group is your key — pick it below:** - **Ages 18-32** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=532.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Detroit&groupurlname=club-for-serious-connections-day-trips&ar=18-32&face_v=4.0) - **Ages 30-46** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=532.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Detroit&groupurlname=club-for-serious-connections-day-trips&ar=30-46&face_v=4.0) - **Ages 40-58** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=532.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Detroit&groupurlname=club-for-serious-connections-day-trips&ar=40-58&face_v=4.0) - **Ages 55+** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=532.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Detroit&groupurlname=club-for-serious-connections-day-trips&ar=55+&face_v=4.0) **⚠️ Important:** Your rsvp here is not a registration confirmation, so register through your age group link above and complete the personality quiz — places close once the group is full so sign up early, and only a completed registration locks in your seat. --- **How it works** 1. **Lock in your place** – using the link for your age bracket, then finish the personality questionnaire, since this is how you are officially confirmed. 2. **Hop on** – by clicking the Zoom invite at the event time, laptop phone or tablet — your choice, all work fine, and a host is live and will walk you through everything. 3. **Take part in the rounds** – host-guided one-on-one rounds with compatible Detroit singles in your bracket, as the host handles all transitions so conversations stay natural, as the quiz results already did the work of choosing who you meet. 4. **See your results** – after all rounds finish mutual matches are distributed privately, as privacy is guaranteed for all non-mutual selections, and once you have it you decide how and when to connect. **Perfect for:** - Anyone calling Detroit home wanting to escape digital dating that never converts to anything real and want to meet real locals without the faff. - Individuals in Detroit who are tired of app fatigue and empty match queues and want to talk to real people tonight. - Locals living in Detroit getting away from app fatigue and empty match queues and want real chemistry over profile photos. - Daters within Detroit who are tired of matches that ghost after two messages and are ready for something genuine instead. --- ✨ Done with apps — start here — use the link above to register and the host takes it from there this time. Your next chapter might start tonight. 🔥 ✨

**Welcome to Drunken Philosophy** a casual, curious social discussion **Optional topic for this meetup: What's up with all the AI hate?** A recent survey found that 74% of Americans have a negative view of AI, and I want to know why. Come out and debate whether AI is good or bad. My hot take: a labor-saving tool that could potentially help cure cancer gets called dangerous because it might raise unemployment or cause a speculative investment bubble, that tells you a lot more about capitalism and the economic system we live under than it does about the tool itself. As a computer programmer, I think AI is a wonderful tool that has increased my productivity by at least an order of magnitude. I'd go so far as to say Claude Code is the best tool I have ever used. Debate me and name a better one. Is AI potentially dangerous? Yes, but so are a lot of tools. Chainsaws. Steam engines (early ones would occasionally explode and kill everyone in the room). Do you think cavemen sat around debating whether fire could be used as a weapon or for self-harm, and decided not to discover it? I have two friends who hate AI for opposite reasons: one thinks it's a fad and not useful, and the other thinks it's going to take over everything and cause human extinction. Come out tonight, have a friendly debate, and make some friends. No lectures. Friendly crowd. Drop in for one drink and stay if it's fun.
