Philosophy Discussion Meetup: "Change"
"No man ever steps in the same river twice, for it is not the same river and he is not the same man." - Heraclitus
The upcoming session of the Philosophy Club Arnhem will revolve around the subject of "Change"
This is the third session of our lively discussion group. You need to bring only your personal experiences.
[Arnhem] English Subs: Sound of Falling
#This meetup is around a third-party organizer (Focus Filmtheater): you can either purchase your ticket online or right before the session#
Lately, tickets have been selling out fast, we recommend getting them in advance.
**Title**: Sound of Falling
**Language**: German
**Subtitles**: English
**Length**: 155 min
**Director**: Mascha Schilinski
**More info**: https://www.focusarnhem.nl/agenda/english-subs-sound-of-falling/
**Ticket link**: https://www.focusarnhem.nl/tickets/141178/
**Synopsis**:
*Sound of Falling* is a haunting drama by German filmmaker Mascha Schilinski (*Dark Blue Girl*) about four generations of girls connected and trapped by a shared past. Through small keyholes, crooked corridors, and murky water, we experience their emotional worlds full of inner turmoil, subjective memories, and hidden traumas.
A remote farm in the German Altmark. Four girls from different times—Alma (1910s), Erika (1940s), Angelika (1980s), and Lenka (2020s)—spend their childhoods within the same scarred walls. As they wander through their own present, echoes of the past resound in the corridors: unspoken fears, repressed traumas, hidden secrets. Despite the years that separate them, their lives seem mysteriously intertwined. When a tragic event repeats itself on the farm, the boundaries between past and present begin to blur.
**How it works**:
I will be at Focus around 18:30, where we can meet before the movie starts. You can message me to find us. Screening starts at 19:00. After the movie, we can have a drink together.
Hope to see you soon!
Maart 2026 Azure APE Meetup
PLEASE NOTE: sessions will be in Dutch!
LET OP: sessies zullen in het Nederlands zijn!
Het programma ziet er als volgt uit:
18.00 **Inloop & eten**
19.00 **Erwin Staal - IFC; next level cloud management (Level 300)**
In deze sessie duiken we in het opkomende concept *Infrastructure from Code*. We verkennen tools als Radius, Pulumi, Nitric en andere vernieuwende initiatieven, en beoordelen hun volwassenheid en toepasbaarheid in de praktijk.
Zijn deze oplossingen klaar om traditionele IaC te vervangen? Of zitten we nog in de experimentele fase?
20.00 **Suzanne Daniëls - Platform Engineering in 2026 (Level 200)**
Platform Engineering speelt een belangrijke rol als fundering voor AI transformatie. Het vertalen van beslissingen en best practices in instructies voor agents, zorgt ervoor dat de business veilig AI kan toepassen. Dit verandert de verantwoordelijkheden van de platform teams, de manier waarop gewerkt wordt en de toolsets. Als code niets meer kost, hoe blijft de software dan van waarde?

Real Estate #3: Kasteel Broekhuizen — A Country Estate of Ruins & Hidden Stories
**Sunday, March 15th – 13:00**
**Meeting point:** Bus stop *Donderberg*, Leersum
For the third edition of **Real Estate**, our series dedicated to exploring some of the most fascinating villas, estates and historic residences in the Netherlands, we head to the green heart of the Utrechtse Heuvelrug to discover **Kasteel Broekhuizen**.
Hidden among forests and rolling landscapes near Leersum, Broekhuizen is a country estate with **medieval roots and a turbulent history**. Over the centuries, it has known periods of prosperity, destruction and reconstruction — and today it stands as a quiet witness to how history, landscape and architecture continuously reshape each other.
During our walk, we’ll explore the **estate and its surrounding park**, uncovering stories about:
* the rise and fall of the estate
* its phases of destruction and rebuilding
* hidden corners and forgotten traces in the landscape
* and the role of the **Van Nellesteyn family** in shaping its history
This is not just a visit to a beautiful country house, but a journey through **layers of time**, where nature and history are deeply intertwined.
### Practical information
* **Walk length:** approx. 3.4 km
* The route goes through parkland and forest paths, so comfortable shoes are recommended.
### After the walk
We’ll finish at **Bistro LOF**, the café/restaurant located within the castle estate itself, where we can enjoy a drink together — and for those who wish, also stay for something to eat — in a setting that perfectly complements the atmosphere of the place.
A hidden estate.
A story of loss and renewal.
A walk through history in the landscape.

🌸 Online Women’s Circle | Meditation & Journaling – Relax the Belly
🌸 **Free online gathering**
**Next circle: March 15**
After this, we will continue meeting on the **first Sunday of each month**.
A space to begin the month by returning to yourself.
This women’s circle is an invitation to give yourself one hour to pause, slow down, and reconnect with your body, your inner voice, and other women. A simple and caring commitment: beginning the month with meditation and journaling in community.
You can think of it as a small personal ritual, creating the habit of listening to yourself, writing, and setting intentions for the month ahead.
We meet online on Sunday afternoons to gently transition into a new week and a new month, creating a moment of presence, reflection, and intention.
During this 1-hour session we will explore:
✨ a guided meditation to arrive in the body
✨ a journaling practice to connect with what is alive in you
✨ a space for sharing, where you are welcome to speak or simply listen
No previous experience is needed. You are welcome just as you are.
Please have a notebook and a pen nearby, and join from a quiet space where you won’t be interrupted during the session.
You are welcome to join once, or come back each month. The choice is yours.
The first circles are offered for free in order to create community and open this space to more women.
Participants who register for the event will receive the **Google Meet link** before the circle begins.
It will be lovely to welcome you into this space 🌿
AI, Agents & Testen
𝗔𝗜 𝗶𝘀 𝗴𝗲𝗲𝗻 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗰𝘂𝘁 𝗻𝗮𝗮𝗿 𝗸𝘄𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝗲𝗶𝘁 – 𝗷𝗶𝗷 𝗯𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗱𝗮𝘁 𝘄𝗲𝗹.
AI-tools, agentic oplossingen en LLM’s lijken het vakgebied Software Testen opnieuw te definiëren. Sommigen beweren dat AI straks al het denkwerk overneemt. Dat we alleen nog prompts hoeven te schrijven en de rest vanzelf gebeurt...
❌ Spoiler: nee dus.
Nieuwe technologie vervangt ons testers niet; het daagt ons uit om scherper te denken, slimmer te werken en onze rol opnieuw vorm te geven. AI is geen magie. Het is een krachtig hulpmiddel, mits jij de regie houdt.
We duiken in de beperkingen van AI, zoals het gebrek aan context, creativiteit en betrouwbaarheid én hoe jij als tester die gaten opvult. We gaan hands-on aan de slag met onder andere de Playwright Agents en kijken kritisch naar de waarde van deze toepassingen. Want AI kan veel, maar geen verantwoordelijkheid nemen. Geen risico’s inschatten. Geen ethische afweging maken.
Daarover gaat deze Plug-In workshop, gebaseerd op ons manifest: Testen & AI.
Wat kun je verwachten?
➡️ Een kritische blik op AI in het testvak en specifiek testautomatisering
➡️ Praktische tools en technieken die nu al werken
➡️ Een hands-on oefening met LLM’s
➡️ En vooral: veel ruimte voor discussie, reflectie en inspiratie
👉 De toekomst van testen vraagt niet minder denkwerk, maar juist méér. En precies dáárom ben jij onmisbaar.
Inclusief eten, netwerk en sparringspartners. De sessie is gratis (parkeren ook).
***LET OP: Dit is een hands-on sessie, dus neem je laptop mee en zorg ervoor dat je applicaties erop mag installeren!***
Plug-In!
AI Next Level - Prompting like a Pro & Using AI Responsibly
**Meer snelheid, betere output én verantwoord gebruik van AI in je dagelijkse werk.**
Je hebt de **AI Essentials** onder de knie.
Je experimenteert met prompts, ziet de potentie en gebruikt AI inmiddels regelmatig.
Maar je voelt ook: dit kan scherper, sneller en bewuster.
In deze **AI Next Level-workshop** zetten we de volgende stap.
Geen herhaling van de basis, maar verdieping.
Meer grip op prompting én meer inzicht in wat verantwoord AI-gebruik in de praktijk écht betekent.
**Wat houdt deze workshop in?**
Deze interactieve dag bestaat uit twee nauw verbonden onderdelen:
**1\. Prompting like a Pro**
Je gebruikt al een basisstructuur voor prompts — nu is het tijd om door te schakelen.
In dit deel leer je:
* Geavanceerdere promptstructuren die sneller tot betere output leiden
* Hoe je minder hoeft te “stoeien” en gerichter kunt werken
* Hoe je AI effectief inzet als denkpartner bij complexere vraagstukken
* Hoe je context, rol en doel zó meegeeft dat je output direct bruikbaar wordt
Het resultaat: **meer snelheid, meer kwaliteit en meer vertrouwen in wat je terugkrijgt.**
**2\. Using AI Responsibly**
Minstens zo belangrijk — en vaak onderschat.
AI is krachtig, maar niet neutraal en niet zonder risico’s.
Hoe ga je daar professioneel mee om?
Je leert onder andere:
* Welke informatie je wel en juist niet in prompts moet verwerken
* Hoe om te gaan met privacy, vertrouwelijkheid en bedrijfsinformatie
* Hoe AI-modellen zijn getraind en wat dat betekent voor de antwoorden
* Hoe je bias, aannames en “mooie maar onjuiste” output herkent
Dit deel helpt je om **bewuster, veiliger en professioneler** met AI te werken — voor jezelf én je organisatie.
**Hoe werken we?**
Net als bij de Essentials-workshop geloven we niet in zenden, maar in **samen ontdekken**.
* Praktisch en interactief: werken met je eigen cases
* Creatief en laagdrempelig: leren door te doen
* Leren van elkaar: verschillende rollen, contexten en perspectieven
* Geen technische training, geen tool-overzicht
* Wel: denken, beoordelen, toepassen en verbeteren
De ervaring leert **dat de groep een groot deel van de waarde bepaalt** — en dat hoor je terug in de feedback.
**Wat neem je mee na afloop?**
Na deze workshop:
* Werk je sneller en gerichter met AI
* Weet je welke prompts écht werken voor jouw werk
* Kun je AI-output beter beoordelen en bevragen
* Ga je bewuster om met data, privacy en betrouwbaarheid
* Weet je concreet wat je maandag anders doet
En:
**Drie weken later organiseren we een vrijblijvende terugkom-call,** waarin deelnemers ervaringen delen en leren van elkaars praktijk.
**Voor wie is deze workshop bedoeld?**
Deze workshop is bedoeld voor:
* Professionals en managers zonder technische achtergrond
* Deelnemers van de AI Essentials-workshop (of vergelijkbare basiskennis)
* Mensen die AI al gebruiken, maar daar meer rendement en zekerheid uit willen halen
* Iedereen die AI professioneel, bewust en verantwoord wil inzetten
**Pilot & praktische informatie**
Deze workshop is opgezet als **Next Level-pilot**.
Dat betekent: kleinschalig, persoonlijk en met ruimte voor feedback om de training verder te verfijnen.
📅 Datum: vrijdag 13 maart
⏰ Tijd: 09:30 – 14:30 (Inloop 9:00)

Adventures in Ecological Horticulture
with Rebecca McMackin
Wednesday, March 18
1:00pm - 2:30pm
Gone are the days when a garden could be ornamental alone. We now recognize the impact that our land care practices have on the ecosystems around us, and can see the importance of encouraging biodiversity. Thankfully, we do not need to sacrifice beauty when we invite butterflies and songbirds into our gardens.
Rebecca McMackin has cultivated gorgeous landscapes in the toughest environments possible: urban parks, school playgrounds, and the sidewalks of New York City. She will take lessons from her work at Brooklyn Bridge Park, the Brooklyn Museum, and decades of research to share how those of us who are fortunate enough to care for land, can do it beautifully and ecologically.
Rebecca McMackin is an ecologically obsessed horticulturist and garden designer. She writes, lectures, and teaches on ecological landscape management and pollination ecology, as well as designs the rare public garden.
She is currently Lead Horticulturist for the American Horticultural Society, an Associate with the Harvard Divinity School’s Thinking with Plants and Fungi Initiative, and Consulting Arboretum Curator for Woodlawn Cemetery in the Bronx, NY.
Rebecca spent a decade as Director of Horticulture of Brooklyn Bridge Park, where she managed 85 acres of diverse parkland organically. Their research into cultivating urban biodiversity and ethical management strategies has influenced thousands of people and entire urban parks systems to adopt similar approaches.
She has been published by and featured in the New York Times, Gardens Illustrated, on NPR and PBS. Her garden for the Brooklyn Museum recently won the PPA’s Award of Excellence and her TED Talk has been viewed over a million times. She holds M.Sc. from Columbia University and University of Victoria in landscape design and biology and recently completed the Loeb Fellowship at the
Harvard Graduate School of Design.
This program is presented in partnership with Rooted in Bexley and generously funded by the Bexley Community Foundation and Bexley Community Author Series Fund.
Celebrate National Chip and Dip Day!
***Okay, call me crazy but you have got to try their chip n dip!*** Club 185 is a true hidden gem in German Village! Seriously, old school, good comfort food and drink. We will try to gather in spaces near the windows. While we'll share Chip n Dip, you'll want to order a sandwich, too.
**Where the Chip Began (1817)**
Potato chips can be traced back to an English chef, William Kitchiner, who includes ‘crisps’ in his bestselling cookbook, “The Cook’s Oracle.”
**Chip and Dip Popularity**
The popularity of chip and dip skyrockets at the end of World War II with new entertainment fads and the introduction of Lipton’s new advertising campaign for their famous French Onion Dip. (Club 185 doesn't openly admit it, but I'm pretty sure that's their dip recipe!)
**[Club 185](http://club185.com/)**—a true neighborhood bar serving since 1954, when it was known as a local 'speak-easy'. Located in German Village, Club 185 features a menu of quality casual comfort food and full bar. From politicians to lawyers, hardhats to hipsters—all find Club 185 the perfect place to tame their hunger and quench their thirst!
**PARKING**: I know, brick street parallel parking can be a pain. Two other choices, metered parking along Livingston heading towards Children's Hospital or across the street in the large church lot (park in spaces farthest away from the church entrance doors, closer to the street).
**PRE-EVENT**: **HAPPY HOUR (3-5pm)**: Italian drinks and bites at [Cento's happy hour](https://centogermanvillage.com/menus/), nearby.
