FRIDAY COFFEE HANG BEFORE WORK
Join the SPX6900 neighbourhood
Coffee, chats, and strategies to overthrow the global financial system with SPX6900
Yep! That’s right. You read that correctly. SPX6900 is taking down the system and we’re doing it with a digital asset.
It is a cryptocurrency and is being called the next Bitcoin
Like early days Bitcoin, the financial opportunity is huge
Unlike Bitcoin we have integrity to take down the system - not make it worse
We’re a huge community online but we want to make real life connections and help grow a brand new real life rebellion
Whether you plan to come regularly or are just curious, everyone is welcome.
SPX6900 is a movement to flip the SnP500 - aka drain liquidity from the global corrupt financial system - this is the next iteration of Occupy Wall Street and GameStop
We use crypto currency technology as the vehicle for our rebellion

We'd love for you to join us for our next edition of *Tech Startups in the Pub*. It's a relaxed evening at The Windmill, our go-to spot for tech chats and good vibes. We have been running for 3.5 years, and it's always a joy to see familiar faces and meet new folks.
Whether you're a regular, a tech founder, an enthusiast, a budding entrepreneur, or simply curious about the tech scene, you'll fit right in. This isn't about panels or pitching, just good old-fashioned networking with like-minded people over a drink (and maybe some pizza) on a Friday evening.
📍 **Where:** The Windmill, 27 Tabernacle St, Shoreditch, London EC2A 4DE
🕕 **When:** From 6 PM on the 3rd Friday of every month!
**House Rules:**

* No hard selling or heavy pitching. This is a chill, friendly after-work get-together.
* Not drinking? No worries! You're more than welcome to come hang out and enjoy the conversation.
Mark your calendar and come down for some fun tech talk. See you there!

Central London Open Group for all genders
We welcome people of all genders to simply sit together in a **safe,** **confidential space, so we can share any aspect of our lives,** including our relationships, work, purpose, sense of safety, health and hormones.
All emotions are welcome here, from the highs to the lows and everything in-between. We can **hang out, be heard and get real about life, learning from one another's experiences**, noticing, acknowledging and celebrating what's good, gaining inspiration to change what's not, and simply accepting 'what is'.
We **support one another to be better, more authentic people,** without telling each other what to do or how to be. There is no pressure and it’s **fine to say "Pass”** when it’s your turn to speak.
We are **accepting, accountable and we want more** out of life. We're not pushy, on power trips or on a coaching frenzy. This is a gentle space for goodness to emerge and emotions to be safely sat with.
We **explore who we are, who we no longer need to be,** and how we can lead better, fuller lives.
We'll be following Kenny's group [Ground Rules - please check them out before you attend](https://sites.google.com/menspeak.co.uk/info/ground-rules?authuser=1) and suggest any changes you might need before we begin.

More than three hundred thousand people work in the Square Mile each day, but their numbers are dwarfed by the dead beneath their feet.

From murderers dancing the hempen jig at Newgate to plague victims dumped in mass graves at Charterhouse Square, *Last Rites* tells the shockingly lively story of London’s nameless dead and their part in the making of the modern city.

Columbus HUG January: Learn Infrastructure-as-Code Through Minecraft
## Learn Infrastructure-as-Code (the FUN Way) — Through Minecraft 🎮☁️
**Joint Meetup: Azure CBUS × Columbus HashiCorp User Group**
What if learning Terraform and Infrastructure-as-Code didn’t feel like a whitepaper… but more like a game?
Join us for a joint Azure CBUS and Columbus HashiCorp User Group meetup where **Mark Tinderholt** \(Principal Architect\, Microsoft Azure \| HashiCorp Ambassador \| “The Azure Terraformer”\) shows how **Minecraft** can be used as a surprisingly powerful way to understand real-world Infrastructure-as-Code concepts.
In this session, Mark will demonstrate how Terraform and Azure can be used to provision, configure, and manage Minecraft servers—while teaching the same patterns you’d use for production cloud infrastructure.
### What we’ll cover
* Infrastructure-as-Code fundamentals using **Terraform**
* Provisioning real infrastructure on **Azure**
* Applying **IaC best practices** (immutability, repeatability, versioning)
* How playful environments like Minecraft make complex concepts *click*
* Why learning through experimentation beats click-ops every time
### Who should attend
* Developers, platform engineers, and cloud engineers
* Terraform users (new or experienced)
* Anyone curious about Infrastructure-as-Code but tired of boring examples
* Minecraft fans who want to see it used in a totally unexpected way
No prior Minecraft experience required—just curiosity and a willingness to learn infrastructure the fun way.
Come for the blocks, stay for the Terraform. 🧱➡️📐

Build Together: A Hands-On Unity Project Workshop
This meetup is a collaborative Unity workshop focused on real projects and shared problem-solving. Instead of talks or presentations, attendees bring a Unity project they’re actively working on and collaborate through discussion, troubleshooting, and hands-on exploration.
The format is flexible and community-driven. You might debug a tricky issue, improve your workflow, explore performance optimizations, or get feedback on architecture, tools, and implementation approaches. Learning happens by doing, asking questions, and helping each other.
**What to Expect:**
* Bring-your-own Unity project (any level)
* Group discussion and peer feedback
* Debugging, optimization, and workflow problem-solving
* Shared tips, best practices, and practical solutions
Example projects may include games, tools, or prototypes—personal or professional.
All experience levels are welcome. Whether you’re just getting started or refining advanced systems, this is a supportive space to learn and build together.
**Food and drinks provided. Join us to learn, collaborate, and connect.**
