DevBP #16: Ship Happens
DevBP #16: Ship Happens
In the last DevBP meetup before the summer break, we will venture to the world of **Continuous Delivery**, exploring the craft of shipping software safely and continuously — from the practices that keep your releases boring, to the hard-won lessons of building the infrastructure behind a feature toggle. \-\-\- \-\-\- \-\-\- \-\-\- \-\-\- \-\-\- \-\-\- \-\-\- \-\-\- **Continuous Delivery Never Died. It Became a Harness.** with [András Fincza (Draven) - XUND](https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrasfincza/) The PR-centered pipeline was already buckling under big batches, delayed feedback, and overloaded reviewers. Agents just turned up the volume. But the discipline that made CD work in 2015: trunk-based development, fast feedback, sociable testing, feature flags, quality gates. These matter more in 2026, not less. This talk is about what to keep from the old playbook, what to upgrade, and what to stop pretending works. **Building a Feature Flag service** with [Zoltán Dávid - ConfigCat](https://www.linkedin.com/in/zoltan-david/) Everyone knows what a feature flag is. Far fewer know what it takes to build and run a feature flag service at scale. In this talk, we'll go behind the scenes of ConfigCat: the technical decisions, the scaling surprises, and the business lessons that came from serving billions of feature flag evaluations. No introductions to feature flagging, just honest insights from years of building a product in a space where reliability isn't optional. \-\-\- \-\-\- \-\-\- \-\-\- \-\-\- \-\-\- \-\-\- \-\-\- \-\-\- This English-language event will be held at the **Shapr3D office**, where we'll provide snacks and drinks to fuel conversations. Arrival is from 17:30, the presentations start at 18:00. You can also find the recordings of previous events on the [@DevBPMeetup YouTube channel](https://www.youtube.com/@DevBPMeetup).
Az APEX 26.1 és az AI támogatott fejlesztés
Az APEX 26.1 és az AI támogatott fejlesztés
Az AI most már nem csak külső chatbotként jelenik meg a fejlesztésben, hanem az Oracle APEX világába is egyre mélyebben beépül. Ezen a meetupon gyakorlati példákon keresztül nézzük meg, mit jelent ez APEX fejlesztőknek, PL/SQL fejlesztőknek és vállalati alkalmazásokat építő csapatoknak. Az új verzió fókuszában az **AI-támogatott fejlesztés**, az automatizálhatóság és a modern fejlesztői élmény áll. A 26.1 legfontosabb újdonságai közé tartozik az **APEXlang**, amely olvashatóbb, fejlesztők és AI-eszközök számára is könnyebben értelmezhető alkalmazásleírást ad. Megjelent az **AI Interactive Reports**, amely természetes nyelvi támogatást hoz a riportolásba. Szintén fontos újdonság az **AI Agent Tools**, amely biztonságosabb és kontrolláltabb AI-alapú megoldások építését teszi lehetővé. Beszélünk a **Codex** APEX fejlesztésben való használatáról, az **OpenAI** integrációs lehetőségekről, valamint bemutatjuk azt is, hogyan építhető **projekt szintű chatbot** saját adatok és dokumentumok alapján. Célunk az Oracle Application Express népszerűsítése, a fejlesztői közösség erősítése és olyan gyakorlati megoldások bemutatása, amelyek valódi ügyféligényekre adhatnak választ. Ha érdekel az APEX, a low-code fejlesztés és az AI gyakorlati alkalmazása, regisztrálj minél előbb, mert a helyek csak korlátozottan állnak rendelkezésre. A rendezvény ingyenes, de regisztrációhoz kötött.

Meditation (English)
Meditation (English)
Practice Buddhist meditation in the middle of Budapest! The meditation is suitable for beginners. Each regular meditation is guided and begins with a short introduction. (all together is about 30-40 minutes) Our regular Buddhist meditations have proven popular with people who want to integrate authentic Buddhist methods into their daily lives. For the modern lay person who is juggling work, relationships, and an active role in society, we teach a meditation that is easy to learn, and profound and powerful for experienced practitioners. The meditation originates from the Karma Kagyu tradition of Tibetan Buddhism. It has a cumulative effect on mind, leading to greater clarity and calmness. Fearlessness, joy, and active compassion are the result of regular practice of Buddhist meditation. * Do I need any special clothing? No special clothing needed. * Does the attendance cost anything? No, the meditation is free.

Open Dharma Budapest - Free Meditation in a Teahouse
Open Dharma Budapest - Free Meditation in a Teahouse
Open Dharma Budapest is a friendly meditation sangha for anyone interested in meditation. Every Sunday we gather for 1–1.5 hours at a local tea house to sit together, share, and support each other on the path. What to expect: Each session begins with a 20-minute silent sit, followed by an open, voluntary sharing of our experiences — a space to process what arises in practice, together. Attention: This is not a guided meditation class. We explore a range of techniques rooted in Theravāda Buddhism, with a modern and pragmatic approach - open to both seasoned practitioners and complete beginners. Your host: Sessions are hosted by Maria East, a long-term practitioner of Theravāda, Vajrayāna, and Dzogchen, with over 10 silent retreats over the last 5 years. Maria is also a clinical psychologist in training, who is happy to offer additional support if practice brings up anything challenging. You're welcome to enjoy a cup of tea before the session ([Menu](https://okuma.space/menu/)). Please [book here ](https://okuma.resos.com)and come earlier if you wish so (for tea). [PLEASE RSVP HERE ](https://okuma.space/event/open-dharma-budapest-free-meditation-2/)to receive further instructions on how to get in for the Meditation.

Könyvhét & Könyves Duma | Book Week & Casual Book Chat
Könyvhét & Könyves Duma | Book Week & Casual Book Chat
**English below ----------------------** Ez most az első picit kötetlenebb könyves eseményünk lesz. Nem egy konkrét könyvet fogunk kibeszélni, hanem inkább kinézünk az Ünnepi Könyvhétre, és meglátjuk, hogyan működik ez a lazább forma. De aggodalomra semmi ok, a könyves kibeszélő és a duma mindenképpen az esemény része lesz. :) A menetrend a következő: **14:00 – Gyülekező és bemutatkozás** A Vörösmarty-szobor környékén találkozunk. Egy nagyobb társaságot keress, és hogy biztosra menj: a kezemben egy Moby Dick könyv lesz, szóval ha ezt látod valakinél, mi vagyunk azok. Kezdésként tartunk egy gyors bemutatkozást, és átbeszéljük, ki mit szeretne megnézni. Én személy szerint csak körbe akarok nézni és megállni ott, ami épp megtetszik, de ha neked komolyabb terveid vagy konkrét célpontjaid vannak, nyugodtan jelezd, biztosan találsz majd valakit, aki veled tart. **14:15 – Indulás a standok közé** 14:15-kor elindulunk, szóval kérlek írj az eseményhez, ha késel. Ha nem érsz oda kezdésre, az sem gond, később is simán be tudsz csatlakozni, rugalmas az egész. A megbeszélt irányok mentén kicsit szétválunk kisebb csoportokra, és teszünk egy kört a forgatagban. **15:00 – Találkozó a Kiskirálylánynál(Vigadó tér)** A nézelődés után 15:00-kor a Kiskirálylány-szobornál találkozunk újra a Vigadó téren. Várunk egy picit, hogy mindenki odaérjen, majd együtt átgyalogolunk a Városháza Parkba (ez egy laza 10 perces séta lesz). **15:20 - 17:00 – Könyves duma a Városháza Parkban** Letelepedünk a parkban, ahol picit átbeszéljük a könyvheti élményeket, meg persze jöhet a kötetlen beszélgetés bármilyen könyvről. A hivatalos részét 17:00-kor zárjuk, de utána is ott lehet maradni tovább, ameddig van kedvünk sztorizni. Gyertek, nézzünk szét, aztán dumáljunk egy jót a parkban! **English version / International attendees:** This is our first casual, free-form event. Instead of discussing a specific book, we’ll visit the Festive Book Week together and see how this format works. * **14:00 – Meetup:** Near the Vörösmarty statue. Look for a bigger group and a guy holding a **Moby Dick** book. We'll do a quick intro and share what everyone wants to check out. * **14:15 – Heading out:** We'll explore the stands in smaller groups. If you're late, just drop a comment here and catch up with us later. * **15:00 – Re-grouping:** At the Little Princess Statue (Kiskirálylány) at Vigadó Square, followed by a 10-minute walk to Városháza Park. * **15:20 - 17:00 – Book Chat:** We'll settle down in Városháza Park to talk about our Book Week finds and books in general. The official event ends at 17:00, but feel free to stay longer! > 🌍 **Language note:** Since this is a local event, most attendees will likely speak Hungarian, but the organizers and many of us speak fluent English. Feel free to join us, we are happy to chat in English and make sure you're included!

Libera Animae - Freeing the Soul
Libera Animae - Freeing the Soul
Main Library, Meeting Room 2B What does it mean to be the salt of the earth and the light of the world? In this gathering, we'll continue our series on the Sermon on the Mount from a mystical perspective. Together we’ll explore Matthew 5:13–16, looking not only to the passage as moral instruction, but also to the deeper transformation of consciousness that Jesus invites. Together we'll reflect on how spiritual awakening changes the way we see ourselves, others, and the world around us. Libera Animae is an interfaith community focused on inner growth, creativity, and authentic connection. All backgrounds are welcome.
Free In-Person Meeting: Get Over Losses & Betrayals, Build Lasting Relationships
Free In-Person Meeting: Get Over Losses & Betrayals, Build Lasting Relationships
This is a free, in-person meeting on the subject of betrayals, losses and how to get over them so you can build lasting relationships. Burdened by a stressful relationship? Unhealthy relationships can trigger feelings of anger, despair or self-doubt. They can create dwindling spirals of fights and seeking to make-up, or trying to “pin the blame” on someone or something. If you don’t find the RIGHT reasons, or select the correct sources of the problem, the problem can just get worse and worse. Whether in love or personal ties, with friends or at work, our life really IS affected by the quality of our relationships. Good ones can promote pleasure and survival while less optimum ones can lead to annoyance, anger, self-doubt, stress, or even affect our health and ability to survive well. Whether you are suffering from a divorce, or a painful break-up, don’t know who to trust (or who to CHOOSE) as a partner, friend, boss or employee - the anxiety of relationship troubles can really make a mess of things. Maybe you’ve suffered a betrayal, or are dealing with hostility or criticalness or invalidation. Dwindling relationships can involve destructive behavior, where we hurt those we love, or start succumbing to self-destructive thoughts, attitudes or behaviors that spiral out of control and affect much more than our immediate relationship. Past losses in love or life can affect how we act or react to new people and situations and hold us back from even starting to create new, possibly great relationships! How can one get back onto a saner course of action? Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life: human relationships! Break free from self imposed limitations Here we will discuss: • How to “erase” the trauma of past hurts and betrayals so that one isn’t always repeating past mistakes. • Why and how do the negative emotions of others affect you? • Why is my partner withdrawing and what can I do about it? • Why do we sometimes feel compelled to hurt the ones we love? • Fights & arguments - what's really behind them? • What underlies “corrosive criticism” or the need to invalidate self or others? • How one can stably change one’s outlook on life so they can affect positive change? • Where do compulsive destructive behaviors come from and what can be done about them? • How to form closer bonds & keep growing the relationships with the people you care about? • How to enhance one’s own ability to survive and create positive healthy relationships whether in love, family & friendships or in work, business or one’s career? Relationships can be hard and life itself IS challenging. Why not arm yourself with the knowledge and breakthroughs that have been made about the mind, mental reactions & interpersonal relationships, so that one has better awareness and control over themselves and life in general. Learn where painful experiences are “stored” and how they can unknowingly affect us. You will also find out how one can “erase” those past painful experiences so that one is free to move forward without being tripped up by the past. Learn too, about what can lead some people to become “toxic” personalities and how to identify those traits in others so you won’t be tripped up trusting the wrong person. Our free Meet-ups occur in a safe environment where one can learn, without fear of judgment or criticism, and without the recommendation of harmful mental techniques or therapies, just how YOU can get yourself onto a happier & more successful path: in love & in life. We look forward to having you join us! This class is sponsored by the Dianetics & Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.
