Hey it seems the old Munich channel is archived and we can't send messages anymore. This is a new channel for the Zig meetup! @primal mason @hidden bridge @kindred shadow @muted stag @limber briar @tropic pulsar @hearty pumice @clear harness @marble plume
Whats generally discussed at these? Im an occasional zig user but i fear itll be too technical for me
This is not a technical meetup. We're just meeting once a month for a drink.
Oh ok
<@&1194381938602033182> As usual, tomorrow 4.6. 6pm Cafe Mozart.
Kid‘s sick, not sure I can make tomorrow 😔
I will come 😁
albeit probably 18:20 or so, my wife needs to get home from the office and take over the kids
for some reason my social battery is not on par yet. so i'll skip this month as well 
Got a nanny, see you tonight
@ornate blade @cyan charm @primal mason just called cafe mozart but they are closed for a month so we need another cafe/restaurant. Any suggestions?
I wouldn't know sorry, i've not lived here for long ^^
the meeting's in english btw right?
Im an alien to muc, so no idea either
Then let's meet here http://www.cafe-kosmos.de/lage.html
Cafe Kosmos in München.
It can get a little bit crowded but it's a nice place
Alrighty
I will have to skip as well... need to take care of kids :/
Im here in 5 min max
I'm upstairs outside directly in front of the other door
Ok, wave for me please 😝
<@&1194381938602033182> @upbeat talon @tawdry cliff @clear harness @tropic pulsar @cyan charm Zigtoberfest: I'm currently looking for a location. Hosting it at Hochschule München is theoretically possible... but I have to jump through a few hoops. Requirements are a) some external organization has to step up as host (I'm currently trying to figure out the details) and b) a justification why this is important for the University (this is less of a problem).
I'll aim for.:
Saturday Oct 12th
~ 1pm - 6pm
Zigtoberfest 😂
Unfortunately, I‘ll be in Aachen that weekend.
Rene came up with the name 😂
so on oct 12th I may be holding an introductory didgeridoo course at my local community college, but it all depends on signups. I probably won't know until shortly before whether or not it'll happen (there's a minimum of four people required for the course to happen, and didgeridoo feels even more niche than zig). On the other hand, I might have something to show for the zigtoberfest. Hmpf!
I don't have priors +/- 1 week, but exactly that one saturday, I do
..or might
for me, yes
Alright
love it
@kindred shadow can you make a separate meetup thread for the event?
cc @hearty pumice
Is anybody using the zig-cli which seems to be written by a
munich based zig developer?
Maybe the developer himself is inside this thread?
You won't gain anything from it except for making some researchers at HM happy
Hi everyone!
are we having meetup next week? I don't know if cafe mozart is open again
Probably still closed. I'd say we meet on the trace @ cafe Kosmos
How was Kosmos last time? Maybe CaVa was better, bit more chill?
We can also meet at cava. The terrace @ Kosmos is always crowded in summer.
I have to be in France for work tuesday so can't be there! I think Cava could be an option (they might watch some of the games, but as long as Germany isn't playing it's fine i Guess). Otherwise, with nice weather a beer garden can also be nice, like Augustiner Keller https://maps.app.goo.gl/uJf4kmUHYmD6jwWu8
Is anybody interested in meeting today?
If nobody is interested we just skip the meeting today. Next meetup would be Tue Aug 6th
Sorry, i wont come this time!
Btw if somebody is into weight lifting, CrossFit, etc we can meet for a workout
Zig Workout!💪
Next Zig meetup coming up, who is up for tuesday?
We are meeting at Cafe CaVa at 18:30, for who wants to join!
I won't be able to make it on tuesday (on vacation right now)! Still would be good to hear who is up for tuesday for the rest!
I'm just scheduling and I realise I might actually be able to make it for the first time in the first week of October.
I'm sick and can't make it today.
Too much Octoberfest? I'm in Vienna so also can't make it!
Not quite. I try to stay away from this manifestation of evil 👹
Is there a meetup happening today?
Ary totally forgot that it's Tuesday. I have to work late, can't make it today.
np, seems no one had it in mind so we skip
Sorry, was also very busy and forgot
Hello! Hope it's ok to post this here…
I'm organizing a meetup this weekend that may be interesting to Zig developers: https://lu.ma/je6q8qzq
Mostly aimed at people who are doing systems stuff (OSes, PLs, databases, etc.) for fun.
Speakers:
• Thorsten Ball: "Writing Tucan, an optimizing compiler in Rust"
• Tomás Senart: "The 1975 algorithm that beats modern sorting"
• Mariano Guerra: "Naming in space and time"
• Patrick Dubroy: "Massively parallel bytecode interpretation on the GPU"
Maybe see some of you there!
Hey guys, let's plan for a meetup on the 3rd of december! Especially location?
Hey guys. Just that you know, I'm currently in Eichstätt so I can't participate. Hopefully I'll be able join one of the meetups next year in March.
Since tuesday seems to be difficult for people, is someone up for a thursday or friday meetup?
Friday works for me
You gonna be in town all the way from Eichstatt?
Yes, I live in Munich.
Ah I midunderstood!@
Anyway, seems like noone else responded..
hey, it's been a while. Hope you're all doing well. Loris has started working on the following: https://zig.day/. The advantage over a regular meetup is that a Zig Day is more like a "hackathon", but... you need something like a co-working space (instead of a pub). Maybe this is a chance to revive the Munich meetup. Let me know what you think!
Pretty cool idea!
are we also going to do regular meetups again?
I was not able to followup on this for quite some time, but would be nice to restart it
How about doing one tomorrow?
I'm up for picking it up! Tomorrow I'm probably out though
Alright. I'll try to organize a Zig.Day. Let's use this as a starting point to revive the meetups.
I'd prefer the following date for a zig.day in Munich
1
3
looks like there are 4 people (including me) interested in a Zig.day. As everybody preferred another day, how about we aim for the middle (14.06.)?
We need more members for votes to be meaningful
I have never been to a Zig day. What is it? Like what type of event?
Ich meine Inspiration und Lernen hört sich cool an 😆 , aber ist doch recht unkonkret
You have to view one of the links
Uff, a zig day in munich! Nice! Won't be able to attend in June though. But looking forward for the next one then 😉
I won't be able to attend any other day than 28.06 so will try to be there for the next one then 😄
I think it's not worth the effort if just 2 people show up
For me june is full unfortunately with vacation
same for me, Pfingstferien 😁
I'll finally be around consistently from July onwards
<@&1194381938602033182> hey hey, some people asked me if we're going to revive Zig Meetups in Munich. Consider this the first heart beat.
I know it is hard to find a date where everyone has time but with this post I'm going to throw Thursday Nov 20th into the ring.
Also: I'm going to the Zig Day in Nürnberg on Nov 29th. If you also want to go, we can create a carpool.
Hey man! I've been busy this year (buying a house etc) so couldn't attend ZigToberfest unfortunately, seems it was a great event!
I'll see if I can attend 20th, would be great to meet up again!
I am a yes for the 20th of Nov
was this still happening?
<@&1194381938602033182> Sure. I'd suggest Axel F 8pm
I'll try to join too!
In case any of you have missed it, Nuremberg is just an hour away 😇
So Axel F it is?
sweet, @potent maple you joining as well?
Nobody Protested
yea, I'll be there, see ya tonight
I'm still on the tram, should arrive by 2010
How many are we? 4?

Trying out vivaldi now, seems pretty good
I’ve published a small blog post about Zigtoberfest.
There are two versions available:
Zig language conference in Munich
Zig language conference in Munich
<@&1194381938602033182> HoHoHope you got something for Nikolaus. I thought it would be nice to meet at a Weihnachtsmarkt and drink some Glühwein or whatever you like :). Again, I'll just propose a random date: 18.12.2025. This is the Thursday before christmas.

Hoho indeed! Great idea, I'm unfortunately already on my way to Italy then!
Italy sounds nice 🙂
As there wasn't much Feedback I'd suggest we pospone the meetup until january
The Zigtoberfest 2026 Call for Speakers is open: https://zigtoberfest.de/

<@&1194381938602033182> loris will be in munich 22.05. To 23.05. Anybody from munich interested in a Informal meeting?
@primal mason Sat should be 25 deg and sunshine so we would meet at https://www.olympiaalm.de/ around 2pm
@sterile echo don't know how much luggage you brought/ will bring with you but if you need a place to store your stuff after checkout you can leave it at my place (roughly 10 min) from the central station by Tram
I'll have a small trolley, I should be able to bring it around with me without issue I think
Unfortunately in Italy currently!
I'm at the location
