Python Łódź #63
Python Łódź #63
**25 marca 2026** o **18:00** spotykamy się w **IndieBI**, **Piotrkowska 157A**, Hi Piotrkowska na prezentacjach: "Logging Module Adventures" oraz "Home Assistant in Action: Automate, Customize, Control". To dobry moment, żeby wpaść po konkretną wiedzę techniczną, a przy okazji poznać ludzi z lokalnej społeczności Python Łódź. 🗓️ Jak wygląda ten wieczór? Zaczynamy od prezentacji i pytań do prelegentów, w przerwie szybko przechodzimy do rozmów w mniejszych grupach, a po części oficjalnej wiele osób zostaje jeszcze na dalszą integrację i techniczne dyskusje. 👋 Dla kogo jest to spotkanie? To spotkanie jest dla osób technicznych z Łodzi, które chcą poznać Python Łódź od środka, ale też dla tych, którzy dopiero sprawdzają, czy taki meetup jest dla nich. Jeśli interesuje Cię Python, narzędzia developerskie albo po prostu chcesz posłuchać konkretnych prezentacji i pogadać z ludźmi z branży, odnajdziesz się tutaj bez problemu. 🎤 Prelekcje Tego wieczoru skupiamy się na praktycznych tematach, które powinny zainteresować zarówno osoby pracujące z Pythonem na co dzień, jak i tych, którzy chcą zobaczyć realne przykłady z projektów i codziennej pracy. 1. **Logging Module Adventures** \- Konrad Gawda Logging module seems a little bit odd. If you would like to understand its logic - join me on my journey into the depths of Python logging. I will share learnings from my own adventure, driven by curiosity and need to add context to long running tasks' logs. 2. **Home Assistant in Action: Automate, Customize, Control** \- Jarek Śmietanka Discover how Home Assistant lets you take full control of your smart home, from lights and climate to music and hydroponics. This talk covers the project's open-source philosophy, vast ecosystem, and thriving community, alongside a real-world developer journey of setting up, securing, and customizing Home Assistant in a personal home environment. You'll see practical examples of automation, integrations, dashboards, and remote access, plus insights on balancing flexibility, privacy, and complexity. Whether you're a Python developer or a tech enthusiast, this session will give you inspiration and concrete ideas to start or improve your own smart home setup 🕒 Agenda 18:00 - Rozpoczęcie i sprawy organizacyjne 18:15 - Prezentacja 1 19:00 - Przerwa 19:30 - Prezentacja 2 20:15 - Networking 🔗 Gdzie nas znaleźć? ➡️ Oficjalna strona: https://pythonlodz.org ➡️ Meetup: https://www.meetup.com/python-lodz ➡️ Discord: https://discord.gg/jbvWBMufEf ➡️ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/pythonlodz ➡️ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/python-lodz ➡️ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/pythonlodz ➡️ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@pythonlodz
CTF-y z Hakierspejsem
CTF-y z Hakierspejsem
Spotkania z serii wymiany wiedzy podczas wspólnego rozwiązywania zadań CTF – jest to świetna zabawa pozwalająca równocześnie rozwinąć wiedzę w zakresie cyberbezpieczeństwa. Poziom trudności CTF-owego zadania ustalimy na początku spotkania. Najprawdopodobniej wybierzemy coś z platformy Hack The Box. Spotykamy się **co tydzień w środę o 19:00.** \-\-\- Zaczynamy o 19:00, ale warto sprawdzić https://at.hs-ldz.pl – być może ktoś otworzy siedzibę wcześniej. Jeżeli masz problem z wejściem, zadzwoń na 42-203-20-50 albo wejdź na naszego chata (patrz poniżej). Potrzebujesz więcej informacji? Skontaktuj się z nami na czacie lub mailowo.

Hack The Box Meetup: No 15
Hack The Box Meetup: No 15
At the meetings we try to expand our knowledge in cybersecurity by solving CTF (Capture The Flag) on the HackTheBox platform. We meet every 2 weeks on Wednesday. We invite all interested people, regardless of their level! We do not have an agenda for the meeting, we will determine during which machine we will do. We focus mainly on practice, so you need to actively participate in the meeting: * bring your laptop with you * prepare a virtual machine with Kali Linux (or any system you like, but systems with the Linux kernel will be best) \-\-\- How to find us If you have trouble getting in, call 42-203-20-50 or go to our chat room - https://t.me/hakierspejs.

Planszówkowanie w Hakierspejsie
Zapraszamy na kolejne spotkanie planszówkowe! Mamy parę gier w spejsie, ale zachęcam przynieść również własne gry! Chętnie zagramy w coś nowego. Jest też miejsce na zostawienie gier na jakiś czas w spejsie, żeby nie musieć ich targać tutaj co tydzień. \-\-\- Zaczynamy o 19:00, ale warto sprawdzić [https://at.hs-ldz.pl](https://at.hs-ldz.pl) – być może ktoś otworzy siedzibę wcześniej.

Shut Up & Write!™ Easton Town Center
Shut Up & Write!™ Easton Town Center
We'll meet at The Capital One Café, 167 Easton Town Center, Space A-103. This is in the main mall where the Microsoft store used to be, on your left if you're standing at the bottom of the AMC Theater escalator. Join us on Saturday for an hour of uninterrupted wordmaking! • What we'll do Join us for an hour of writing! We’ve discovered that it’s strikingly helpful to write with other writers. See if it’s true for you at 10AM on Saturday mornings. Be it a book, blog, script, essay, dissertation, resume, melody, poem or just plain work stuff, you are invited to write it with us. No one will see what you've written or give you unsolicited advice. Instead of just thinking about writing, come and get some real writing done. SCHEDULE: 10:00 - SESSION 1: quick intros. 10:10 - timer starts: write for 1 hour. 11:10 - chat / take off / keep writing. OPTIONAL SOCIALIZING happens at 11A-11:30ish. Writing is very solitary. Connecting (and sometimes even commiserating) with other writers is a cool thing. BEING LATE IS OKAY: just show up and get settled, then check-in with me after the session. (I’ll be the person with the Shut Up & Write! sign.) If you were on time, please be willing to make room for the friendly latecomer. Happy writing and I look forward to seeing you! • What to bring Whatever you need to be able to write! Bring earbuds/earplugs if you want to block noise or the occasional conversation by other patrons. Electrical outlets are limited, so charge your devices before whenever possible. See you at The Café on Saturday!
Shut Up & Write! Kingsdale Shopping Center
Shut Up & Write! Kingsdale Shopping Center
Greetings writers! Come down and join your fellow wordsmiths for one hour of uninterrupted writing time in the upper level of the Market District Supermarket in Upper Arlington. The main entrance of the shopping center opens onto stairs/elevator leading up to the 2nd floor cafe section where we will have a table displaying a sign with the Shut Up & Write logo. Writing is largely a solitary craft. Practicing with others in a community setting may be the thing you need to fire your own routine. We’ll meet on Wednesday evenings, starting the clock at 6:30, following a brief period of introductions. This is solid writing time and all inclusive. Any project is acceptable, be it fiction, non -fiction, work or homework assignment. All is welcome and will remain private to you. The market boasts a Starbucks, a full service bar and various affordable food options. Parking is plentiful, free Wifi is provided as well as outlets for charging your devices, though they are somewhat limited, so plan accordingly. Show up as early as you like, or stay late. This group tends to socialize some, both before and after the alloted time, but this is not mandatory to you. Feel free to come and go as you please and late arrivals are welcome. The cafe may be noisy on occasion so headphones/ earbuds are reccommended as you see fit. Please try to RSVP if possible so that we may grab enough seats for all—the venue can be busy at times. Feel free to message me privately wth any questions and/ or concerns you may have. Happy writing!

Let's try a Friday Night Fish Fry!
Let's try a Friday Night Fish Fry!
We thought of one of the interesting things that can be enjoyed at this time of the year. We will be meeting at Immaculate Conception Catholic Church for a "Fish Fry" in Marian Hall on Friday, March 27th at 5:00 PM. It might be fun for you to experience what has become a tradition on the Fridays before Easter. They will have fried fish or baked fish, French fries and Cole slaw, as well as beverages, all for $16.00 for adults. They will have other beverages and desserts available for sale, as well. We have never tried this, and sometimes there are quite a few people at these events so we hope that we will be able to find each other easily. I'll try to have signs outside Marian Hall that Identify our group. We hope to have you join us!
