Hey Gophers! 👋
Full lineup for next Tuesday's #golang #meetup #Vilnius is in 🐹
A real-world PII puzzle, plus two takes on working with AI: what code review is for now, and what it's like to start your career with it.
📅 Tuesday, November 10th
📍 Cast AI, Lvivo g. 37, Vilnius
🚪 Doors open 18:00
🎤 Talks start 18:30
Autumn theme: Gophers in the Loop 🔁
🔐 Making services PII-compliant: hashing, blind indexes, and a shared HMAC — Lidiya Trifonova (Tabby)
How do you search for data you can’t read anymore? Lidiya will share a real-world case of handling PII across multiple services, exploring hashing, blind indexes, and shared HMAC.
🔍 Code Review in 2026 — Thomas Strang (Cast AI)
AI software factories have made parts of code review unnecessary — but not review itself. Thomas's opinionated take on what we can drop, why review still matters, and what he's changed in his own reviewing.
🌱 Senior Tools, Junior Engineer: Learning to Deliver in AI Era — Mantas Juškauskas (Saily)
His first full-time job, with AI that can write the code for him. Mantas, who builds Go backend services, will walk us through what helps a junior engineer deliver, what gets in the way, and real stories from his work.
Expect the usual: pizza & drinks 🍕 and networking with fellow gophers.
See you on November 10th!
