The sun is starting to make itself regularly present during this time of year. The summer is about to start and many people can once again enjoy a great glass of wine accompanied with delicious garnishes.
We, from the fraternity "In Vino Veritas", have already enjoyed these refreshments. We have placed a lot of emphasis on this during the "Maand'lijkse borrels" that have taken place this year. However, it is also time to organize 'new' events!
Perhaps, you have already been able to experience "Decadent weekend"; this is a weekend away that we organize every year. Last year we organized, during "Decadent Weekend", Pitch and Putt. Many attendees had much appreciation for this activity and that is why we have decided to have this activity take place in a warmer climate!
During Pitch en Putt we will approach 9 holes and triumph. However, we will not stop there. Furthermore, there will also be a barbecue that includes free drinks. The Pitch en Putt will cost you €5,- if you are a freshman. Otherwise you only have to pay €10 for this part of the activity. If you fancy a delicious barbecue with unlimited drinks, this will cost you an extra €7.50.
This activity is certainly reasonably priced for many students and therefore highly recommended to experience. In any case, we at "In Vino Veritas" are already extremely excited to hit a few balls with you!
Continue readingDear member,
Are you becoming an introparent, or do you want to sign up for it? Then this activity is for you! We will organize an afternoon in the sun with some free drinks and ice creams. We have some fun games to play against other parents too. This is the ultimate way to get to know fellow introparents who might have some useful experience!
I case you still want to subscribe to become an introparent with your buddy, feel free to fill in this form. You have until the end of the IBA to subscribe, so you can come to the activity if you are still not sure if being an introparent is for you.
We hope to see you there! Hugs, Intro22

The dress code is black tie but a long evening dress and dress suit are encouraged. In the run-up to the activity, there will be fitting moments where the gentlemen can measure and buy a dress suit. There will also be dance and etiquette workshops to get everyone fully ready for the weekend, more information about this will follow later. Of course, a gala also includes a date. Pink and blue letters will be placed in the GEWIS room so that someone can be asked to the gala using official etiquette. An explanation about how this works can also be found in the GEWIS room, but if you are already curious, there is also a lot of information to be found on Google. Hopefully, we'll see you all in March to make it an unforgettable, GR8 evening! Sponsored by Wolfpack and DSW
Continue readingWho will be this year’s Beer Pong Champion? That is something we will figure out in Q3 and Q4 of this year. Over one year ago GEBALLMERPIEK hosted a beer games tournament, in which two of GEBALLMERPIEKs own members were crowned victorious. The time has come to attempt to dethrone the kings, as finally there is going to be a new beer pong tournament! Gather your ultimate beer pong buddy and get ready to completely 10-0 your opponents!
After the sign-up deadline all teams will be divided into groups in which you play against every other team once. After all of the pre-games there will be a knock-out finale on the 17th of June, where the best teams in each of the groups will battle against each other for the ultimate prize and of course the title!
The pre-games within your group are your own responsibility. You have to plan and play them before the 5th of June, and you pay for your own beers. After a match, the scores need to be communicated to GEBALLMERPIEK@gewis.nl .
The pre-games can be played anywhere from the moment the group phase is announced up until the 5th of June. More info about the finale will be given later. A paper with the official GEBALLMERPIEK beer pong rules can be found in the GEBALLMERPIEK drawer in the boardroom. For beer pong cups, balls and the rules ask the board or a GEBALLMERPIEK member.

For our first activity as Zebra, we would like to invite you to participate in a paper plane championship: Fold & Fly. Your afternoon will be filled with loads of great mini-games unlike any you have ever experienced. Not even Mario Party can compete with this! The rumor even goes that our finale will be hosted by one of Safaripark Beekse Bergen’s inhabitants.
In this competition, your inner engineer will be put to the test by folding and pimping out paper planes of several gigantanormous sizes. For every format, there are several minigames in which you can earn points. After this, it’s time for the big finale! Your starting position in this finale will depend on how many points you received during the minigames. As a bonus, your team can score extra points for the most beautiful and pimped out airplane!
So, do you want to become the first ever GEWIS paper plane champion? Yes! Gather your friends and subscribe in groups of 3 or 4 people, if you want us to match you up with other people that is fine too!

Continue readingAre you are an adventurous student who likes the spirit of nature and is not afraid to be active for some part of the weekend, or a student who loves to drink beer while sitting at a campfire all night? If you can answer this question with "yes", don't hesitate and join us this year! Every one of you needs a break outside after countless hours of being locked inside, right?
Before the bad corona monster came around, we used to spend a weekend on a campsite each year. We are not planning on letting this tradition go to waste, so here’s the plan: we organise some great activities for you, we make sure there is a river to "stream" in (ask B.O.O.M. members for details) and a campfire to sit at when it's dark and cold. Examples of activities of previous years are mountain biking, traversing a trail between treetops and canoeing. Since we are on a campsite, we will sleep in cozy tents.
You do not have to be hungry or thirsty. We arrange a sufficient supply of beers and soda (and coffee for the tough mornings, don’t worry). You can have a taste of Sako’s famous pasta salad on Friday, and enjoy a BBQ on Saturday. It’s all inclusive, so don’t miss out!
This year, we will visit the Eifel in Germany. The weekend will take place from 10th till 12th of June 2022. If you want to join please subscribe below. If you have a car that can take people to Germany please let us know in the form as well. We would also like to know if you have a tent and how many people could fit in it. We will not make tent groups but this might give other people some help in asking around to find a place to sleep :)
We are planning on taking 50 persons to our awesome weekend, so subscribe as soon as possible! When there is a lot of interest, we may be able to scale up, but we cannot promise anything yet!
Met takken!

Have you ever gotten tired of your arms flailing around during a soccer match? Or that it's way too easy to balance yourself while going for the ball?
Oh, do we have the solution for you! Presenting: AC Bubblesoccer feat. TOPdesk, where you can take part in challenging, but mostly hilarous soccer matches in giant plastic bubbles. Don't worry about bumping into people (some might argue that's the whole point), as you will safely bounce on the floor in a spectACular manner.
Hopefully we'll have nice weather, but don't worry about getting too warm in the bubbles as we'll play short ACtion-packed matches. We will also order some pizza's after an afternoon of bouncing around. They are ordered on an own-cost basis. If you'd like one as well I kindly refer to the attAChed eating sign-up list.
The ACtivity will take place from 13:00 until 17:30 on the Flux Field (MetaForum side). The maximum number of participants is 30. So sign up now and partake in soccer like you never have before!
Continue readingWe challenge all the modern high tech gadgets we have to do what we want. This challenges the chip-manufactures worldwide to keep up with our demands. ASML is challenged by these companies to provide them with “state of the art” semi-conductor lithography systems.
There are many opportunities within ASML to improve our products. To develop these improvement solutions we need to run simulations on mechanics, optics and water, air or temperature flows.
To be sure we have an improvement we need statistics to proof the new design is better than the old one.
Unfortunately machine parts break down or fail at customer sites, then it is important to have some logic reasoning in order to solve this issue fast in a good way.
John van Dijk is an experienced Design Engineer at ASML image sensors, who will explain where within ASML how and which branches of mathematics are applied.

Don't worry, GR8-TIMES has organized a speed date night especially for you in the Dakterras. Come to GEWIS on Wednesday night 1 June and meet all the heartwarming charmers that GEWIS has to offer.

Continue readingDear GEWIS members,
In the past, etiquettes were passed on from generation to generation by default. This automatic process was guided by natural hierarchy of older members feeling the obligation to share their knowledge to the younger generations. However, the last few years there was little to celebrate, thus these etiquettes have vanished a bit. This is a great shame; imagine you embarrass yourself on such a prestigious occasion like a Lustrum Gala. Ouch!
Luckily, I.V.V is there to offer you a solution! Lo and behold, the I.V.V Etiquette Workshop. Wednesday the first of June "Hèt Dispuut" will bring you a crash course in manners and unwritten rules such that you can experience the gala night to the fullest. In this crash course you will be fully prepared to act adequately in every situation that might present itself. Registration is completely free, and the workshop will take an hour, so do not hesitate to come by!

Continue readingOn GMM 187, it was decided that the party lights in the GEWIS room would be replaced. The new lights will be installed on the 31st of May, meaning that we have the old lights left over. As promised during that GMM, these lights will be sold to GEWIS members for a friendly price, namely 30 euros per light. Note that this is 5 euros more than originally budgetted, but this is because of increased installation costs for the new lights. The lights we are selling are Showtec LED PAR 56 Short Pro RGB's. They include a power cord, but to chain them toghether, you will need to buy your own DMX cabling. You can find the specifications in the manual of the Showtec LED PAR 56 Short Pro RGB.
The lights will be sold in pairs. To become eligible to buy a pair, you can subscribe to this activity below. There are 19 lights in total, meaning that one person will get only one light. If there are more than 10 people subscribed, there will be a draw. The draw also determines the 10th person who can buy the single light. If there are less than 10 people subscribed, There will be a draw to determine the order of who can buy a second pair as well (if you want to). The draw will take place on the 30th of May.
The lights have to be picked up on Tuesday the 31st of May, because there is no space to store them after they have been removed from the ceiling. If due to circumstances the new party lights cannot be hung on the 31st, the pickup moment will also be moved.

The IND assesses all applications from foreign nationals who want to live in the Netherlands or want to become Dutch citizens. You can imagine this is a very hot topic in times of war (Ukraine) and flow of specific refugees (Syrians).
In recent years, the large number of applications has resulted in a backlog of thousands of asylum applications. . This is troublesome for both; the asylum seekers who are waiting for their application review, as well as for the Dutch Immigration Service, that have to pay penalties for long asylum processes.
With your team you will help the IND by efficiently reducing the backlog of thousands of asylum applications. For the best solutions you have to take different dependencies into account such as availability of employees, competence (languages) of employees, nationality of refugees, penalties of refugees and of course ethical decisions.
Which group will manage to get to the lowest penalty fee, while taking ethics into account?
Please bring your own laptop for this case. This case will be most interesting for mathematics students Continue readingDear GEWIS'ers,

It speaks for itself that during a debate participants discuss a subject from two opposing sides. Each topic has two sides, those who agree on the ”Pro” side and those who disagree on the “Con” side. Each side will engage the audience and will try to persuade the audience to their side.As this may sound easy, there is more to it then just telling your opinion. The art of structuring your arguments isn’t that easy. In order to perform your best and make sure the jury can most optimally judge all participants it is highly recommended to join this training if you go to the education debate on 30th of May.
Prior to the training there is the possibility to eat pizza together.We will order at Domino's.If you have any questions or remarks you can send an e-mail to co@gewis.nl

The end of the academic year is in sight, the Desperados are being pulled out of the bag and Eindhoven's parks are getting busier: the summer is about to start! While the sun is making our faces turn bronze again, everyone is looking for the much needed cooling. Shadow and airco are nice, but what cooling is better than the one found in your glass!
While a white wine or a fresh bubble already offer a solution to aforementioned problem, the members of Fraternity "In Vino Veritas" like to go one step further. For this reason, apart from the usual selection of wines, a second category will be present on the menu: terrific tonics in a bitter balance with gorgeous gins. Three of these combinations can be bought for a mere 10 euros, a tiny price for these beautifully garnished glasses like you have never tasted before.
Are you looking for some cooling down from the warm weather, do you like to drink gin & tonics, or are you simply looking for a fun evening? Come to the GEWIS-room "Het Dakterras" on Friday May 13, 18 o'clock, and join the members of I.V.V during the Maand'lijksche Borrel!

In industrial production environments only 53% of all AI/ML applications make it in the long run. Companies often struggle with setting up, integrating, and maintaining stable production environments for machine learning. Defining and implementing a robust MLOps process is key and should address the following elements:
The standardization of data collection, including database structures, communication interfaces and GUIs, automating distributed model training including version control of data and models (Tensorflow/PyTorch models on Kubernetes clusters);deploying models-as-a-service (for instance with gRPC interfaces);constant monitoring of model inference performance with dashboards including alerts;adding model inference feedback with the human-in-the-loop;and supporting state-of-the-art model explainers to also give a reason why predictions are made.
In this lunch lecture we show this process for the application of automatic visual inspection of electronics using deep learning models as used within Prodrive Technologies.

Continue readingTimes are starting to change. Where we once had to sit at a table to wait for a delicious glass of vino, we are finally able to go wherever we want with a glass or bottle of wine in hand. Personally, I really enjoy the “borrels” organized by our BAr Committee that are organized weekly.
However, there is still a lack of “borrels” that were once organized at least once every quartile by a fraternity of which I regard every member as a close friend of mine.
Fortunately, I can give you excellent news! I am happy to announce that we, Dispuut "In Vino Veritas" will organize a new “Maand’lijkse Borrel” on April 5 in the GEWIS room from 17:00 to 21:30. During this “borrel”, our wine will be poured from the bottle into your glass, and certainly not from a cardboard box. That is why we have baptized this “Maand’lijkse Borrel” as “The Wine from Bottle in Glass ‘borrel’“. On arrival you will receive a welcome drink from us to celebrate that we can drink normally again after 2 years. After this you can enjoy the rest of the evening with a selection of our hand-picked wines. There will also be some small refreshments such as crackers, cheese and grapes to enjoy while drinking your wine.
An IVV “Maand’lijkse Borrel”, for those who no longer know what an IVV “Maand’lijkse Borrel” is or have never had the chance to make one, is an evening with good company while enjoying the best wine that tuition can buy and snacks made by the members of Het Dispuut themselves.
In case this message has already made you excited to attend one of the biggest events of the year, I suggest you open a bottle of wine now and pour it into your wine glass, because you don't have to not to register anywhere. Furthermore, I can only wish you the best and of course I see you appearing on April 5 at the drink.

Continue readingSioux Technologies is a global technology partner that supports or takes over the R&D department of high-tech companies.Topic 1:Refrigerated containers enable long-distance transport of fruit. The challenge is to have an air circulation inside the container which maintains the correct temperature throughout the container to keep the fruit quality high and thereby reduce food waste. Sioux Mathware developed a model to predict the airflow and temperature inside a refrigerated container with pineapples.Topic 2:Nowadays when you take a picture with your smartphone, it directly creates a digital file which you can share. In the past they used film strips and now a customer wants to digitize millions of images from these film strips. Due to the large quantity of images, the main focus was to create a fast method. Sioux Mathware created a set of algorithms to be able to extract the main pictures from the film strips and add labels to them.Note: this lecture will be on-campus, with a maximum capacity of 75 people.

Continue readingDear Members of GEWIS,
The lockdown is disappearing little by little, which means that the hospitality industry can once again flourish in its original state. A nice benefit is that this way we can go to a restaurant for a while. Unfortunately, this also means that our wallets get empty the more we seek out the conviviality.
But not to worry, Hèt Dispuut "In Vino Veritas" is here to offer a solution for this tragic fact, without compromising on the front of sociability nor quality of food. I.V.V presents (probably for the very last time) the established and legendary "Keuken with I.V.V"! This time the tender buddies of Hèt Dispuut will present delicious dishes that are themed around the use of squid. Explanations will be given live on how to dissect and process such a slippery friend into an edible and delicious restaurant-quality dish.
This online spectacle will take place on the usual medium of Twitch (twitch.tv/hetdispuut) and will start on Friday, February 18, around the clock of 5 (?). The registration list will open on Wednesday, February 9 and will close on Sunday, February 13, 23:59. I.V.V will make sure that some hard to get ingredients, including the squid itself, can be picked up (or will we be delivering?). The rest of the ingredients, which can be read in the recipe list that will soon be online, you will have to buy yourself for a negligible amount.
So hurry up and take your tentacles to the GEWIS-site and register with your companions (sadly not included) for this wonderful activity, and we'll see you on Friday the 18th in our digital chatbox!
On behalf of Dispuut "In Vino Veritas",Dhr. BosmaVice-Praeses as well as Homines Attributes as well as Pedipal as well as Vice-Proclamator as well as Vice-Ab-Actis of Dispuut "In Vino Veritas"

The clothing line subcommittee of GR8-TIMES worked very hard on a new clothing line. Just like last time, we added a new special item: a sports bag! It is a 55 Litres bag that you can personalize with your own name.Furthermore, we have designed TWO sweaters, both available in black and white.

The sweaters and sweatpants are made of very high-quality organic textile (85% organic cotton, 15% recycled polyester). The pants also have side pockets.
Maybe the best of all is the price range of this clothing line. All items will cost around €20,-. You can find pictures of the products on https://lustrum.gewis.nl/clothing. Ordering is possible via this form.Note that filling in this form is binding. If you want to cancel your order, please email lustrum@gewis.nl before the 1st of March, after this you are obligated to pay.

Continue readingAnago is a Dutch software company founded in 1999 and is specialised in smart planning solutions. We have developed our own no-code development environment for modelling planning applications. We work for large organisations such as AirFrance KLM, Heineken, UWV, IND and the Ministry of Social Affairs. Examples of planning systems are the long-term planning of a customer contact centre, the scheduling of engine services at KLM and the planning of the asylum seekers chain.Anago Planning applications are modelled using high level building blocks such as data cubes, calculation engines, integrations and views. The result of the application model is a fully working cloud solution.Typically, the planning calculations involve mathematics such as aggregation and allocation, statistical forecasting, various optimisation algorithms and a free model language.Currently, Anago is relying on a multi-dimensional database system (OLAP) that is becoming more and more a bottleneck. We are looking into ways to extend this environment with smart ways of handling the calculations, such as automatically detecting changes to the data and rewriting expressions in order to recalculate the results.We are researching the best ways of handling these challenges. During the lunch lecture we want to introduce you to our world of developing a modelling environment such as Anago and the concepts behind our engine. You will learn how a low-code or no-code platform is set up and can be used to create state-of-the-art cloud solutions.Depending on the restrictions, this lecture will probably be online - but keep an eye on your email for the latest updates! The lecture will be given by Fraser Wilson, Software Architect at Anago and Thomas de Nooij, Founder of Anago.

Who will be this year’s Beer Pong Champion? That is something we will figure out in Q2 of this year.

The time has come to attempt to dethrone the kings, as finally there is going to be a new beerpong tournament! Gather your ultimate beer pong buddy and get ready to completely 10-0 your opponents!
After the sign-up deadline all teams will be divided into groups in which you play against every other team once. After all of the pre-games there will be a knock-out finale on the 14th of January, where the best teams in each of the groups will battle against each other for the ultimate prize and of course the title!
The pre-games within your group are your own responsibility. You have to plan and play them before the 7th of January, and you pay for your own beers. After a match, the scores need to be communicated to a GEBALLMERPIEK member.
The pre-games can be played anywhere from the moment the group phase is announced up until the 7th of January. More info about the finale will be given later. You can find the official GEBALLMERPIEK rules here

To avoid plastic waste, we would like to ask you to bring your own bottles and containers to put the food and drinks in.

Continue readingWhat does it mean to fail? Failure always came as part of the contract each of us has with life. And it will always be this way. It's not easy to face failure, but what if you would learn to fail well? Learning to fail well is a skill. When you fail well, you understand what failure is: another lesson. It doesn't mean you are incompetent, lazy, naive, or lacking value. It means there are things you know and things you don't. Things you know how to do well and things you still need to learn... How would you look at your academic life if you would embrace this philosophy? Join the discussion hour on the 10th of January during the lunch break (12:40-13:20) to find out more about your fear of failure and learn how to begin handling it more effectively. If you have any questions or remarks please send an e-mail to co@gewis.nl

Continue readingIt has been some time, but we are happy to announce that we will again have a SNiC this year! SNiC is a congress organized for enthusiastic Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence bachelor and master students from all over the country. Over the past years the congress has grown considerably. Where in 2017 the congress was visited by 450 students, we expect around 650 visitors in 2021. Various talks will be held at the congress by speakers from both the business world and the academic world. You are challenged to dive into a specific topic from different perspectives.
The focus of this edition of SNiC will be on the IT of mobility. For the past years there have been major leaps forward in the use of computers and AI in vehicles - think self-driving cars, the optimisation of fuel usage in aeroplanes, or apps that perform diagnostics on the engine of your motorcycle. But MobilIT can be extended to much more than that: we can analyse the organisation of public transportation, or take a closer look at the latest innovations in bionics and cybernetics - tech that will open up a future of mobility for everyone.
On November 23rd in 2021, the congress will be organized in Apeldoorn. Transport by busses has been taken care of, but you can also use your own transport. The exact schedule will be announced here and on the GEWIS socials, however you should expect the program to fill an entire day. More information can also be found on the MobilIT website and Instagram.
For only €7,- you can join this event. This includes an amazing trip by bus from and to the campus as well as lunch, dinner and drinks during the day.There are only 75 tickets available. On October 26, there will be a draw amongst everyone who is subscribed at that moment. Any remaining tickets will be handed out on a first come, first serve basis. For these tickets, a separate subscription list exists.
For the event, you must show a CoronaCheck QR code/EU Digital Covid Certificate. This means that you have been tested in the last 24 hours or have been vaccinated. Furthermore, it is mandatory to show a form of identity (drivers license, identity card, passport).
Students of generation 2020-2021 and later will receive 3 MyFuture points for participation in this activity. Please bring your campus card.
Continue readingGreat pitches often leave you with great meaning, think of pitches like Martin Luther King or the pitch about this training over a pitcher beer! These are of course extraordinary pitches that will only be given once is a lifetime, but pitching and presenting are also important in mundane life, for example a pitch before a GEWIS activity, a presentation or selling a product. During the workshop we will practice these examples as well as key concepts like preparing a pitch, tone of voice and last but not least volume!If you have specific scenarios that you would like to practice, for example a presentation or meeting a new person, then please mail these to train@gewis.nl. We will share these scenarios with the trainer and he will try to implement these.We will eat wraps at GEWIS before the training starts! So if you are joining the training, feel free to also subscribe for some wraps!For now we strive to have the training offline as education is still possible offline with the new measures.

We make these for you with our IT experts and knowledge of the latest technologies.In this lunch lecture, Thijs Pepping will try to give you and understanding of synthetic media. Synthetic Media will drive us into a fourth media revolution which will be characterized by AI manipulated and generated media (text, visuals, audio, data). In order to understand the impact of synthetic media we will open not the blackbox of AI, but the blackbox of the human psyche. How do we perceive reality, process information, and use stories in order to relate with the outside world? We frame Homo Sapiens as post-reality species, and this insight has profound consequences for how we should see synthetic media, its expected impact, and future IT design decisions.Please note: this lunch lecture will be physical!

Continue readingDear members,
In the past (you can ask some older people at GEWIS), it was a tradition to have a day together with all the Mathematics and Computer Science students of the different technical universities in the Netherlands. This was called the DET-day, where DET' stands for Delft, Eindhoven and Twente'.
It has been a long time since the last DET-day was organised, but Enschede wants to bring this tradition back!
The day will most likely exist out of fun games, a campus tour, possibly a pub quiz and of course a social drink at the end to get to know the other students a bit better. There is no scheduled date yet, this is all dependent on how many people are interested and which city will host the DET-day.
So if you are interested in having a fun day with other Mathematics or Computer Science students, subscribe on this list! You can also leave a suggestion here on what you would like to see during the day activities.
Continue readingIn the yearbook of the academic year 2020/2021 there will again be a 'Smoelenboek'.

If you were an active member at GEWIS in 2020/2021, but you don't want to be in the Smoelenboek, you can unsubscribe by subscribing to this activity and choosing: "I don't want my picture in the yearbook" If you weren't an active member of GEWIS, (i.e. a member of a committee or fraternity), but you were often at GEWIS in 2020/2021, you can also subscribe for the Smoelenboek. Then you can also get your own yearbook when they will be distributed. Simply subscribe for this activity and choose: "I want my picture to be in the yearbook".

Continue readingDonald Knuth is a smart man with ideas. If smart people have ideas, they write books about it. But Donald was fed up with the available text processing software for writing books, so he wrote his own. This became LaTeX. Nowadays, LaTeX is the de facto standard in scientific text processing. It has built-in support for all sorts of mathematical characters, it can be used for lots of things, like homework, presentations and resumes and it makes your life a lot easier. As a mathematician you will first use LaTeX in Q1 during the Linear Algebra 1 course, as a computer scientist, you will use it during Data Structures in Q3. Because LaTeX is an invaluable skill when you are studying Mathematics or Computer Science, TRAIN is offering a LaTeX-training! We have asked Thomas Lippens, who is famous for making LaTeX fun, to give you this training, we will provide some snacks and drinks while diving into the world of scientific test processing.

Do like cooking or do you just like eating? Well GETAART got you covered by organizing a diner rouler. You can sign up with a partner and experience exquisite dishes prepared by two other pairs and yourself.
The idea of a diner rouler is that you will create one dish (appetizer, main dish, or dessert) together with your partner and organize a place to serve it (yours or your partner's place). Please enter your preference for the meal you would like to cook in the subscription form. You will serve this dish to your partner, two other pairs, and yourself. The other dishes will be taken care of by the other pairs.
By the end of the evening, you would have had a three-course meal at three different locations and only made one of those courses yourself. What a bargain, am I right?
You will also mix and mingle with a lot of people throughout the night (corona restrictions kept in mind) and experience the genius culinary creations of others.
To make sure that the travel time is not too long between your courses please let us know where you are planning to serve your dish by email (getaart@gewis.nl) after you have subscribed. The information will only be communicated to members of GETAART, it will only be used for the schedule, and of course all the information on locations will be deleted afterward.

Continue readingThink you saw this activity before? That's right; it has been moved to Sunday September 19 due to Covid.
On Sunday September 19, 2021, a group of international Erasmus exchange students will arrive on the TU/e campus to have an amazing introduction day! Those international students are staying here for at least half a year, but they have no knowledge about the Netherlands, Eindhoven, or this university. To help those students feel at home, we are organizing this introduction day!
Every Erasmus student will be paired up with a student that currently studies here, a buddy. Therefore, we are looking for you! On the 19th of September, you will meet your buddy in real life and you will guide them during the day. During this intro day, you will have the chance to get to know more people and make friends from all over the world. The intro day will be completely free for you and there will lots of fun activities. We won't spoil too much but there definitely will be a city tour and a pubquiz.
Please register below to get a buddy assigned! Non-GEWIS members that study at the department of M&CS can also subscribe. Be fast, because there are only a limited number of spots. We hope to see you and your buddy in September.
Continue readingHello dear first year students, As you might have heard, GEWIS has several First Year Committees every year. These are groups of first year students that form a committee together. An FYC is a great way to get to know your fellow students, and also get to know GEWIS a bit better. With your committee, you will design your own logo and clothing, and organise activities together. There is also a scoring competition, which awards points for doing certain activities and passing your courses, among other things. If you want to know a bit more about FYC's, and also hear stories from last year's members, then come to the information meeting during the lunch break on Friday the 17th of September in Auditorium 8. I hope to see you there!
Continue readingIt is the start of a new week! Luckily this week includes another Thursday! What a coincidence!! Therefore the BAC will again organise a borrel this week! However, this week is extra special. It is also the lustrum of B.O.O.M., so they will provide a nice drink, and you can buy a sweet 16 card as well! So if you are feeling thirsty, subscribe and join us at the borrel this Thursday!
The borrel will take place on the 16th of September and will start at 16:30 in the Markthal. Subscribe before Wednesday 12:00, if there are too many subscriptions after this deadline there will be a draw. If you cannot participate the whole borrel, please leave your spot for a person that can! Not being there the whole borrel has consequences.
Continue readingThose who are not a "ouwe lul" may not even be familiar with the Dutch television program "De Lama's". It is a TV program that is older than many sjaarzen, and we therefore think it is an excellent plan to also introduce the younger generations to one of the highlights of Dutch cabaret. De Lama's is a large improvisation show in which the participants play various theater games where they end up in the most bizarre situations. With the help of improvisation and a good portion of humor, the aim is for the participants to put on an extremely entertaining show for the audience, and of course also for themselves. During this activity everyone gets the opportunity to play as a participant, but sitting in the audience as a spectator all evening is just as great. Of course, this activity is also ideal for the old guys who are still hoping for a De Lama's comeback, and for those who just get a lot of fun from theater sports. Please note that the activity will be in English by default.Are you funny, charismatic, good at improvising, or just extremely confident? Or would you rather watch other people who are just that little bit better at it? Or do you just fancy a cool B.O.O.M. activity? Then sign up for the B.O.O.M "De Lama's" improvisation show! Participation is free and we will arrange a drink and a small snack for everyone, so that's an extra reason to register!Make sure you are present at the activity on time so that you can choose a good spot and you can hear and see everything well! If there are more registrations than places, a lottery will be held.
Continue readingIt`s sunny outside! B.O.O.M. is turning 16! It is time to celebrate with exciting activities outside!
From Tuesday onwards it will be possible to start with the Geocache designed especially for our Sweet 16. So get together in a group (or on your own, but in a group is more fun and social ;-)) and start working on your brain with puzzels and enjoy the walk in the nature while doing that. It is combining the two things we love to do!
Want to know more about geocaching? Watch this video: https://youtu.be/vuFiLhhCNww
On your walk, be sure to bring:
A phone with full battery or a GPS deviceA flashlight if you are walking during evening hoursGood walking shoes (due to rain, some parts may become a bit muddy)The geocache will start in the Markthal, and all the hints will be posted here on Tuesday September 14. We will inform all subscribed members by mail as well!
Finishing the geocache before Sunday September 19 will be rewarded with a small price, so please subscribe with your group to inform us how many rewards we should prepare! Walking the geocache after this date is still possible, but just for fun.
(If there are no rewards left when you arrive at the end of the geocache, please let us know)
Continue readingRust is a language introduced in 2015 by Mozilla to build reliable and efficient software.
It has since then gained a lot of popularity with both companies and developers: Used by all GAFAMs, and voted "most loved programming language" 6 years in a row on the Stack Overflow Developer Survey!It tries to solve problems that other system programming languages, mainly C and C++, have been struggling with for a long time, such as memory errors and building concurrent programs. Rust takes inspiration from its predecessors, from the strongly-OOP C# or the dreaded C++, to the purely function Haskell, but avoiding the errors of the past. It can statically prevent whole classes of common errors thanks to its formal, but intuitive, model.
During this talk, I'll show you what makes Rust a great language for the future (and also what makes it sometimes no so great).
Continue readingOn September 19, the beautiful fraternity B.O.O.M. will receive its 16th year ring. We had planned a whole week full of fun activities for you to celebrate this special milestone with us. After not really celebrating our lustrum last year, we are back with a Sweet16!
To get you out of your dorm rooms and have some fun, the 3rd edition of the popular outdoor cinema will take place on Monday, September 13. We won't reveal which 2 films will be shown, but the films will undoubtedly have a funny and not-so-serious atmosphere. Of course a cinema is not a cinema without (free) popcorn! Besides that, we wouldn't be B.O.O.M. if we didn't also do some BBQ'ing.
We recommend you to bring your own (camping) chair as in true B.O.O.M. fashion.
The exact location of the activity will follow soon!
Continue readingHey party people!

Dispuut "In Vino Veritas" will, as per usual, organise the perfect social drink for that: The I.V.V Maand'lijksche Borrel "Academische Jaaropening".

After a hectic introduction week where you have (hopefully) made a lot of new friends it is time to really start your student life. And no student life without studying.

There is no need to worry.Attending this training will teach you all the basics you need to know to survive all the software at the TU/e.
In case there are more then 75 people that want to attend, there will be a "first come, first serve" policy. You can also attend the training online!
Don’t forget to bring your laptop!
Continue readingStudents who want to work on solving complex problems in a challenging, competitive, and innovative environment and who want to achieve a leading position in R&D (basic research, applied research, and experimental development) or technological innovation, should consider accelerating their career by continuing their professional development by means of a PhD degree program or a PDEng (Professional Doctorate in Engineering) degree program, in close collaboration with industry.During this lunch lecture, Robin Mennens , one of the most recent graduates of PDEng Software Technology program on technological design and doctorate level (EQF 8) will be presenting the interesting results of his thesis “The Philips Remote AI Streaming (PRAIS) platformâ€. He is nominated for TU/e Academic Award 2021 for best PDEng Thesis executed in 2020. Furthermore, Robin chose to enroll in this program after MSc Computer Science & Engineering (Software Science track) at TU/e to further develop his technical, professional and personal skills and become a software designer and well-rounded engineer. See this article in Bits & Chips. He will also explain briefly how the program helped his career start significantly.

Continue readingDear members,
Much like previous years, the "Weet Ik Veel" recruitment team has sent us another invitation to join their wonderful show, this is a Dutch (unfortunately, also exclusively spoken in Dutch) game show where students will be tested on their general knowledge and the winner will receive a large sum of money! Sadly we will not have as large of a capacity this year due to corona, so we'll be visiting there twice on Saturday the 28th of August. This year "Weet Ik Veel" is recorded in Studio 22 in Mediapark Hilversum (Sumatralaan 45, 1217 GP). We have chosen to go the afternoon and evening recording, which means we have to be present either from 14:00 until 18:00 or from 17:30 to 21:30. When subscribing, please indicate which of the two timeslots you would like to subscribe for.
Both activities will be facilitated by (at least) one board member, meaning that we can only take 9 members to the recordings on each of the days respectively. If there are more subscriptions than the capacity allows for, there will be a draw. Please subscribe before the 18th of July!
Continue readingA new week means a new Thursday means a new borrel!Due to the introduction week, we will have to borrel inside again which means we will only have a very small capacity. To make up for this, we decided to come up with something special!
This week we will have a no-glass borrel which means you'll have to bring your own drinking "glass" which is absolutely NOT made of glass. Not only your drinking device should be of another material, but also other glass items are not allowed during this borrel.
Subscribe before Wednesday 12:00, if there are too many subscriptions after this deadline there will be a draw. If you cannot participate during the whole borrel, please leave your spot for a person that can! Not being there the whole borrel has consequences.

As you might have already heard, GEWIS and Pattern are allowed to organize a party during the introduction week. This party will take place on campus on Tuesday the 24th of August. This party is up to 750 people and social distancing is not necessary, as everybody is required to have valid QR-code in the CoronaCheck-app in order to enter the party.
Today, we got some great news: GEWIS and Pattern members not related to the introduction week are now allowed to join the party! Of course, all of those who partake in the introduction week (kiddos, parents and volunteers) have priority to enter, but all the slots that are left after all these people have joined the party are allowed to be given to others!
For now, we can allow about 50 more people to join the party. The tickets will be first come first serve, and everybody outside of these 50 people will be put on a waiting list. If there are no-shows during the introduction week, some of the people on the waiting list will also be allowed to the party.
We want to stress the importance to have a QR-code in the CoronaCheck-app to enter the party! This means that when you are allowed to come to the party or have a chance to go to the party, that a QR-code is necessary! The QR-code must be valid during the whole duration of the party, as every time you leave the party and re-enter it, you will be checked again! You can get your tickets on https://www.eventbrite.nl/e/tickets-gewis-introduction-party-167992348637!
With kind regards,Intro21

The holiday has come to us and you are most likely enjoying what the terraces have to offer. After a year we can already see the light at the end of the tunnel and also within the Dispuut “In Vino Veritas†we are looking forward to a future where we can drink a fine glass of wine with you again.
For example, we still remember the very last “Maand’lijkse borrel†that was held on March 4, 2020, where we could fully enjoy Old-Dutch drinks and refreshments together with you. Fortunately, we can inform you that this will not be the last “Maand’lijkse borrelâ€. On Wednesday, August 4, you can once again enjoy the delicious wine that we will offer you in combination with some delicacies that you can enjoy.
Since this will also be the first “Maand’lijkse borrel†in a long time, we would like to celebrate this too. That is why this will be a “Borrel with Bubblesâ€. You are of course welcome to join Dispuut “In Vino Veritas†from 17:00 in the beloved GEWIS-room “Het Dakterrasâ€. Hopefully, like us, you can't wait for a festivity like this and for an evening to remember!
A “Maand’lijkse borrelâ€, for those who no longer know what a “Maand’lijkse borrel†is or have never had the chance to experience one, is an evening with good company while enjoying the best wine that student money can buy and refreshments made by the members of Het Dispuut themselves.
Since this borrel is inside there will be a limited number of places. Subscribe in groups of two before Monday 23.59, if there are too many subscriptions after this deadline there will be a draw. If you cannot participate the whole borrel, please leave your spot for a person that can!
