We continue with *Philosophy Movie Night*. Relaxed, cozi, with popcorn to munch and a fine (alcohol-free) wine to sip, in company of nice people. This is a session to watch one of those older movies we never got the chance to watch in thoughtful company. The format is simple: we select a film in our community under 2 hours (link to the poll below), then optionally discuss it together at the end. **How it works** * Choose or suggest a film in the facebook group. * The winning movie gets screened the next session. * English or Hungarian subtitles are available upon request. **What to expect** * A curated film with philosophical depth * A projector and casual atmosphere. The first to arrive gets the sofa. * An optional discussion after the screening for those who fancy talking about it. **Practical details** Location: Kisvilág Kulturális és Társadalmi Alapítvány Please, put 18:00 in your calendar, get your seat, order some snack, meet some friends and have an introduction of the movie. Movie starts: 18:30 Ticket: Free **Note: the space is limited**, only sign if you are actually going! We will message to confirm, if you dont answer we might give your seat to someone else! Donations to support the association are welcome Snacks and beverages available for purchase. (Please, sign if you are really coming) **Want to vote for the movie?** We made a poll in our Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/budapestphilosophy/permalink/969860102200121/

Am 24.06.26 steigt unser nächstes Codineers Rosenheim Meetup vor Ort in unserem Büro in Rosenheim oder Remote via Zoom. Meeting Link: [https://qaware-de.zoom.us/j/88063201327?pwd=1CYwSe7eGIBM3FJWygby1oixvzXUwg.1](https://qaware-de.zoom.us/j/88063201327?pwd=1CYwSe7eGIBM3FJWygby1oixvzXUwg.1) Meeting-ID: 880 6320 1327 Kenncode: tW8JTFtiSF **\#\# KI\-Agenten & Code im Security\-Check: Zwischen Hype\, Hack und SAIF 2\.0** Vom nützlichen Entwickler-Tool bis zum autonomen System: KI-Agenten übernehmen immer mehr Kontrolle. Sie generieren Pull Requests, führen eigenständig Code aus und handeln im Namen der User, oft komplett ohne menschliche Aufsicht. Doch wo endet der Hype und wo beginnen die echten Risiken? Was taugen die integrierten Sicherheitsfeatures aktueller Modelle, wenn sie auf die Realität der Softwareentwicklung treffen? Und wie groß ist der "Blastradius", wenn Agenten durch präparierte E-Mails manipuliert werden? Dieses Meetup liefert dir einen fundierten Security-Deep-Dive. Wir analysieren reale Vorfälle, prüfen die aktuellsten Anthropic-Modelle auf Herz und Nieren und stellen dir konkrete Design-Prinzipien (SAIF 2.0) vor, mit denen du deine KI-Systeme absicherst bevor sie live gehen. **\*\*\* Agenda \*\*\*** 17:30 Uhr \| Doors open\. Schnapp' dir Snacks & Getränke\. 17:45 Uhr \| Welcome & Intro 18:00 Uhr \| Zwischen Hype und Realität: Anthropic\-Modelle und "Project Glasswing" im Security\-Check \- Stefan Feuerstein 18:45 Uhr \| SAIF 2\.0 – Sicherheitsstrategien für die Ära autonomer KI\-Agenten \- Alexander Eimer 19:30 Uhr \| GetTogether **\*\*\* Unsere Vorträge \*\*\*** **Zwischen Hype und Realität: Anthropic-Modelle und "Project Glasswing" im Security-Check** In diesem Vortrag werfen wir einen kritischen Blick auf die aktuelle Leistungsfähigkeit der neuesten Anthropic-Modelle und schauen unter die Haube von Entwicklertools wie der Claude CLI. Im Zentrum steht dabei die Perspektive der IT-Security: wie sicher ist AI-Code? Was bringen die mitgelieferten "Sicherheitsfeatures"? Zudem wollen wir natürlich auch wissen, ob Mythos uns zeitnah unseren Job wegnimmt: Deswegen ziehen wir ein Fazit nach zwei Monaten Project Glasswing. Was ist Fakt, was Fiktion? **SAIF 2.0 – Sicherheitsstrategien für die Ära autonomer KI-Agenten** KI-Agenten sind längst im Produktiveinsatz: Sie generieren Millionen von Pull Requests, lösen Support-Tickets und verwalten die interne Unternehmenskommunikation. Sie sind keine bloßen Chatbots. Sie verfügen über Zugriffsrechte, führen eigenständig Code aus und handeln im Namen der User – komplett ohne menschliche Aufsicht. Doch diese Autonomie vergrößert den potenziellen Blastradius enorm. Die Beispiele aus der Praxis sprechen für sich: Eine einzige präparierte E-Mail verwandelte Microsoft 365 Copilot in ein Werkzeug zum Datendiebstahl. Ein simpler einzeiliger Prompt brachte den Chatbot eines Autohauses dazu, einem 1-Dollar-Verkauf zuzustimmen – vor den Augen von Millionen. Das sind keine kuriosen Einzelfälle, sondern das Resultat von Produkten, die ohne das nötige Sicherheitsfundament entwickelt wurden. Googles Secure AI Framework 2.0 (SAIF) ist die Antwort aus der Praxis. Es identifiziert 15 spezifische Risiken, ordnet sie den Komponenten eines KI-Systems zu und liefert konkrete Sicherheitsmaßnahmen. SAIF 2.0 erweitert diesen Rahmen gezielt für agentische Systeme: Es zeigt auf, wo sie versagen, warum die Risiken hier höher liegen und wie wir die Architektur grundlegend neu denken müssen. Dieser Vortrag analysiert die SAIF-Architektur anhand realer Vorfälle und schließt mit fünf entscheidenden Design-Prinzipien ab, die den Blastradius Ihrer Agenten minimieren, bevor sie live gehen. Wir sind Partner der [ROSIK](https://www.rosik.com/).

💜 Csak nőknek szóló PyLadies esemény! 💜 Sziasztok PyLadiek! A QR-kódokat nap mint nap használjuk, de vajon tudjuk, hogyan működnek? Ezen az alkalmon röviden megismerkedünk a QR-kódok világával: megnézzük, milyen típusai vannak, hogyan tárolnak adatot, és miért számítanak ennyire zseniális megoldásnak. Az elméleti bevezető után a gyakorlaté lesz a főszerep: Python segítségével saját QR-kódokat fogunk generálni, testre szabni, és megnézzük, milyen lehetőségeket kínálnak a különböző könyvtárak. A foglalkozás kezdők számára is követhető, és remek alkalom arra, hogy egy hétköznapi technológia mögé nézzünk. 👨‍💻 Előadó: Németh-Buhin Alba és Sepp Norbert 🗓️ Programterv A két előadás között hosszabb szünetet tartunk, hogy legyen időnk beszélgetni és megismerni egymást :) • 17:30 – 18:00 Megérkezés, setup • 18:00 – 19:00 Előadás I. • 19:00 – 19:40 Szünet, Networking • 19:40 – 20:35 Előadás II. • 20:35 – 21:00 Záró gondolatok, elköszönés (A programterv változásának jogát fenntartjuk.) 💻 Mivel készülj? Workshop jellegű alkalom lesz, így ajánlott, hogy legyen nálad egy programozásra alkalmas számítógép. A gepeden, jo, ha le vannak töltve az alábbi programok: \- Python \(https://www\.python\.org/downloads/\) \- opencv\-python \- scikit\-image \- reedsolo \(opcionális\) \- customtkinter \(opcionális\) 💜 Kit várunk? Olyan lányokat és nőket várunk, akiket érdekel a Python világa, és szívesen kipróbálnák, hogyan lehet QR-kódokat létrehozni és testre szabni Python segítségével. Az alkalom kezdők számára is követhető, így nem szükséges előzetes tapasztalat a QR-kódokkal kapcsolatban. 📍 Helyszín Balance Irodaház – 7. emelet Dél (Lifttől balra) Cím: 1139 Budapest, Váci út 99 🌍 Nyelv Az esemény nyelve: magyar (és Python) 🤝 Szponzor HCL Technologies Starschema Kft.

Let's get together and listen to **[Eric Rico](https://www.linkedin.com/in/ericrico/)** from Unity3D (**From Joints to Gestures: Reading Hands in Unity**). A hand tracker gives you joints, not a gesture. This talk shows how you get from raw joints to a "thumbs-up" in Unity: the pipeline that cleans up the data, how a gesture becomes a few 0-to-1 values within tolerance, and why orientation matters as much as finger shape. Includes a live demo of tuning gesture thresholds. Eric also runs the **[Columbus Unity User Group](https://www.meetup.com/columbus-unity-user-group/)**. Check it out! ***Bring your laptop and expect to write some (non-AI-generated) code!*** Food and drinks will be available. **LOCATION:** 6515 Longshore Loop, Suite 300, Dublin, OH 43017 **FREE PARKING:** 6725 Longshore Street, Dublin, OH 43017

*We'll update this with the specific topic(s) once they're set for the month.* A relaxed, community-driven Unity GameDev meetup. No strict agenda — just developers getting together to talk shop, share projects, and exchange ideas. Some topics that may come up (based on attendee interest): * Frame Debugger & performance tooling * Addressables & additive scene workflows * Input System, localization, responsive UI * AI integration approaches * DevOps & LiveOps experiences * Full lifecycle: idea → cross-platform publishing * Favorite Asset Store tools and hidden gems * Weird Unity quirks we've all run into Nothing is locked in. Bring a project if you'd like, bring a question, bring a lesson learned — or just come hang out and meet other developers. All skill levels welcome. Food and drinks provided.

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. **YouTube Link** TBD
