Enseigner en 2026 : mission impossible  ?
Enseigner en 2026 : mission impossible ?
L’ASTM et le CITIM,, ont le plaisir de vous inviter à une conférence intitulée : ### «Enseigner en 2026 : mission impossible face à des publics dont l'attention est de plus en plus volatile ? » Jeudi 18 juin à 12h30 à L’Altrimenti (Salle Rheinsheim) 5 avenue Marie-Thérèse, Luxembourg Centre (Plan d’accès [ici](https://map.geoportail.lu/addresses/Luxembourg/Avenue%20Marie-Th%C3%A9r%C3%A8se/5/?lang=fr)) Alors que les algorithmes de recommandation saturent notre quotidien, tant privé que professionnel, les études convergent : la "guerre de l’attention" fragilise nos facultés de concentration et favorise l’apathie. Si ce phénomène nous touche tous, il est particulièrement délétère pour les jeunes, dont le cerveau est encore en plein développement. Pourtant, rien n'est une fatalité. Des méthodes de transmission existent pour reconquérir ce précieux "temps de cerveau disponible". Jean Lou Fourquet, spécialiste de ces enjeux, nous proposera des pistes pour réinsuffler le goût de l’apprentissage et apprendre à apprivoiser la frustration nécessaire à tout effort intellectuel. Au-delà du savoir pur, il s'agit de remettre au centre de l'éducation des valeurs de solidarité, de sobriété et de lenteur, en opposition au culte de l'immédiateté et de l'individualisme. Avec l'intervention de : Jean-Lou Fourquet, formateur et co-auteur de l’ouvrage [La dictature des algorithmes](https://www.tallandier.com/livre/la-dictature-des-algorithmes/) co-écrit avec Lê Nguyên Hoang, qui analyse comment les algorithmes de recommandation favorisent les contenus clivants et sensationnels et comment nous pouvons bâtir un système de recommandation favorable à l’intérêt général. Entrée libre, mais inscription nécessaire sur : [events@citim.lu](mailto:events@citim.lu)

Double Feature: Backend-Performance mit Data Engineering & Projekte ruinieren
Double Feature: Backend-Performance mit Data Engineering & Projekte ruinieren
Hallo liebe Java User Group Mitglieder! Diesmal haben wir zwei Bonner Kollegen zu Gast: * Martin Stoller: **Backend-Performance in Hochlast-Systemen: Lösungsansätze aus dem Data Engineering** * Andreas Monschau: **Zehn goldene Regeln, um dein Softwareprojekt zuverlässig zu ruinieren** Wir freuen uns euch zu sehen (virtuell oder vor Ort). Dank an [codecentric](https://www.codecentric.de/standorte/nuernberg) für Location, Bier und Pizza! ================= Viele Hochlast-Systeme beginnen als kleine, unscheinbare Prototypen - gebaut mit bewährten Mitteln wie relationalen Datenbanken, objektorientierter Business-Logik und klassischen Request-Response-Architekturen. Doch was passiert, wenn diese Systeme plötzlich nicht mehr Tausende, sondern Millionen von Requests bedienen oder Terabytes an Daten verarbeiten müssen? In der Praxis zeigt sich häufig: Klassische Optimierungen wie Caching, horizontale Skalierung oder effizientere Algorithmen stoßen irgendwann an ihre Grenzen, weil sie innerhalb desselben Paradigmas bleiben. Dieser Vortrag zeigt, warum echte Skalierbarkeit oft ein Umdenken erfordert. Anhand eines durchgehenden Praxisbeispiels wird schrittweise demonstriert, wie sich ein System von einer latenzoptimierten Request-Response-Architektur hin zu einem durchsatzoptimierten, analytischen System entwickelt. Dabei werden zentrale Konzepte aus dem Data Engineering greifbar gemacht - darunter Precomputation, Batch Processing, deklarative Verarbeitung und Denormalisierung - und in den Kontext klassischer Backend-Entwicklung eingeordnet. Die Teilnehmenden lernen, typische Grenzen traditioneller Architekturen zu erkennen und erhalten ein alternatives Denkmodell, um High-Throughput-Systeme gezielt und nachhaltig zu skalieren. ================= Softwareprojekte sind chaotisch, anstrengend und voller Überraschungen. Und ganz ehrlich: So soll es auch bleiben. Ordnung würde ja nur den Spaß verderben. Trotzdem gibt es immer wieder Menschen, die glauben, man könnte Projekte wirklich zu Erfolg führen… unglaublich, oder? Damit dir so etwas nicht passiert, zeige ich dir in diesem Vortrag, wie du ein Softwareprojekt in 10 einfachen Schritten zuverlässig an die Wand fährst. Die „goldenen Anti-Pattern für maximalen Projektschaden“ entstammen jedoch nicht meiner Fantasie, nein, sie werden in der Realität täglich mit beeindruckender Konsequenz praktiziert. Und das Beste: Sie wirken nachhaltig. Manche dieser Muster entfalten ihre volle Zerstörungskraft erst Monate später. Nachdem du alle Regeln kennengelernt hast, kannst du selbst entscheiden: Möchtest du sie weiterhin anwenden, oder vielleicht doch etwas verändern? Solltest du allerdings inspiriert sein, eines dieser Anti-Pattern künftig noch konsequenter zu leben… dann sollten wir uns nach dem Talk dringend unterhalten. ================= Dein Vortrag bei der Java Usergroup Nürnberg! Hast du dich in letzter Zeit in deinem Projekt oder privat mit einem interessanten Thema beschäftigt? Vermutlich ist das nicht nur für dich selbst interessant! Hast du Lust, selber einmal einen Vortrag bei der Java-Usergroup Nürnberg zu halten? Wir sind nicht nur auf Java-Themen fokussiert, sondern beschäftigen uns gern mit und um alles über Software Entwicklung und IT. Wir wollen bei der JUG nicht nur bekannten Speaker\*innen eine Plattform geben und die neuesten State-of-the-Art Technologien vorstellen. Wir freuen uns auch besonders, wenn wir Themen aus unserem technologischen (Arbeits-)alltag Raum geben zu können. Melde dich gerne bei uns, wenn du dazu Lust hast, wir geben wenn gewünscht gerne auch Hilfestellung bei der Vorbereitung!

Circle by AI & Coffee - In-Person Meetup in Luxembourg
⚡ **Circle** by **AI & Coffee — Luxembourg's In-Person AI Community** AI is moving faster than any of us can keep up with alone. The best way to make sense of it — and stay ahead of it — is by getting in the same room as people who are just as obsessed with it as you are. That is exactly what AI & Coffee is about. We are bringing together Luxembourg's most curious, creative and driven minds for an afternoon of open, honest and energising conversations about artificial intelligence — not in theory, but in practice. No slides. No pitches. No pressure. Just real people, real ideas and real connections over great coffee. ☕🤖 *** 📅 **Sunday 21 June \| 15:00 – 17:00** 📍 Chiche!

Customize the IDE: Building Extensions for Visual Studio Code - Alan Barber
Customize the IDE: Building Extensions for Visual Studio Code - Alan Barber
**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** *Customize the IDE: Building Extensions for Visual Studio Code* Visual Studio Code is one of the most widely used development environments today, and much of its flexibility comes from its extension ecosystem. 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
