SUMMARY:Pop-up Meetup: ARE We F*cked? An Anti-AI-Doomer's Perspective
DESCRIPTION:Join us for our new Pop-up Meetups series\, featuring great speakers from around Hampton Roads. If you loved Hampton Roads DevFest\, these meetups are for deeper conversation\, building on ideas\, and seeing how you can be a better professional. \nARE We F*cked? An Anti-AI-Doomer’s Perspective \nFeeling lost\, irrelevant\, and just a bit AI-gitated when it comes to your work in the world of AI? \nNever fear! The reality is less scary than the existential crisis we all went through 6 months ago. \nThis talk isn’t about YOLOing it and shipping all the AI slop. \nThis talk is for the rest of us\, the people who still have to get real work done on Monday and want to help their fellow humans. We’ll figure out where AI earns its keep\, where it wastes your time\, and where you are still the best tool in the room. \nYou’ll walk away with: \n\nA clear understanding of when to reach for AI versus your awesome human self.\nA starting list of which AI tools to use for each job.\nA sense of relief and clarity on what to do next.\n\nBring: curiosity\, questions\, and a friend. \n📍 The Hive\, Virginia Beach\n🕕 Wed\, Aug 27 · 6:00 PM \nFood and drinks will be provided.

SUMMARY:HTML Day | Freewrite
DESCRIPTION:This event is in person only. \nHTML is just writing. You type words\, save the file as .html\, open it in a browser\, done. You’ve made a website. That’s the whole trick. \nCome spend an afternoon making websites by hand\, the old way: no frameworks\, no build tools\, no drag-and-drop. Just a text file and a browser. Never written a tag in your life? Come anyway. You can write for an hour without touching HTML\, or go as deep as you want. Already fluent? Come make something weird and share it. \nThere’s no wrong way to do this. HTML is forgiving by design\, it runs on anything\, it doesn’t break\, and every page is readable by anyone who hits “view source.” That’s the spirit of the old web: open\, human\, no magic behind the curtain. \nThis is an AI-free event. Hands on keys\, write your own HTML like it’s 2003. We can’t frisk you at the door\, but the whole point is the making\, so leave the generators at home and build the thing yourself. \nHow it goes: show up\, quick hello and a short crash course for anyone who wants it\, an hour or so of freely writing HTML\, then optional sharing at the end. \nBring: a laptop (or pen and paper\, writing HTML by hand is great). No accounts\, no installs\, no experience needed. \nCheck out the announcement site here if you haven’t yet! \nCoffee and pastries provided by Val Town | Location provided by ECPI
