Geopolitics, Summer 2026 Edition! A World in Flux! Global Order! Casual Debate..
**âGeopolitics (!) â Summer 2026 and a World in Fluxâ**
Power, Conflict, Alliances, and the Shape of the Global Order
The world feels less stable than it did just a few years ago. Wars linger or expand, alliances are tested, and long-standing assumptions about security, globalization, and leadership are breaking down. Summer 2026 doesnât mark a pauseâit marks a moment of tension, transition, and uncertainty.
This isnât a news recap or a prediction exercise. Itâs a philosophical and strategic conversation about where the world standsâand what forces are quietly reshaping it.
***
**Topics weâll touch on:**
* Are we moving toward a multipolar worldâor a more chaotic one?
* Ongoing wars, frozen conflicts, and the risk of escalation
* The role of great powers vs regional players
* Europeâs position between security, values, and dependence
* Energy, resources, and the geopolitics of scarcity
* Is international law weakeningâor merely adapting?
* And finally⊠are we entering a more dangerous era, or just a more honest one?
Casual discussion. No background in international relations requiredâjust curiosity and a willingness to look beyond daily headlines. Whether you feel worried, cynical, cautiously hopeful, or unsureâyouâre not alone.
Letâs take a step back from the noiseâand think seriously about the world weâre living in.

Claude Code with Unity
A session on using Claude Code, Anthropic's AI coding agent, in real Unity development. We'll cover what coding agents are, where Claude Code fits, and how to apply it to an actual game project.

What to Expect:
* An intro to coding agents and where Claude Code fits
* A live demo on a real Unity project
* Key features as solutions to real problems: đąđ«đ đŽđŁđ€.đđœ, context management, hooks, skills, subagents, and MCP
* Unity-specific pain points, including Domain Reload and MCP caveats
* Putting it together
All experience levels welcome. Food and drinks provided.
*Note: meetup topics may change â check back for the latest details.*
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, weâll 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. Weâll 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. Weâll close with a brief overview of how extensions are packaged and published to the Visual Studio Marketplace and other distribution options.

Casual Boardgames - make friends, then beat them in games
Welcome to Casual Boardgames, where we enjoy classic tabletop games and social deduction games while bonding over good food, drinks, and great conversations.
â©We started this group to meet new people and make new friends, and bonding over games in a relaxed atmosphere is a great way to do that.
We currently meet near route 23 and Polaris Parkway, and this is close to areas like Powell, Lewis Center, Worthington, and parts of Westerville and Columbus.
â©Feel free to bring your own games or play one of the many games our members bring. If you are inexperienced, we will help you learn.
â©Here are just a few examples of the kind of games we play.
â©Tabletop/board games: Splendor, Catan, Azul, Dominion, 7 WondersâŠ
â©Social deduction games: Code Names, Chameleon, WerewordsâŠ
â©IMPORTANT:
â©1. While we love playing a variety of games and competing, we are not just about the games. We interact and talk while playing, and this leads to a lot of laughter and fun. If you just want to compete and focus solely on the game, then this is probably not the group you are looking for.
â©2. Many people join groups like this and never (or rarely) show up after weeks or months. If you join and never really come, we will eventually remove you from the group as a courtesy to our members. Why? Because limiting group conversations (on the app) to regular members makes communication and planning much easier. Also, while it may be rare, it protects members from people who join because they are interested in following a person instead of having a real interest in our group. If you get removed, it is just because you havenât come, and we follow this protocol as a courtesy to our regular game players.
