Dear GEWIS members,

This week, on June 28th, GEWIS enters its 40th year as an association. Not only does this mean that GEWIS is now officially a boomer, it's also the start of the 8th Lustrum! Over the next year, the Lustrum Committee GR8-TIMES will make sure to deliver you some Great Times. I'm glad to announce the theme to you all, which is- hold on, I am having some interference problems with my internet connection.. Strange things are going on..! I.. what is this, I need to go.

I can only say that there will be a lustrum theme reveal video on the 28th of June at 13.08. There are multiple ways to watch this video. At first there will be a watching party in the GEWIS room. Next to that the video will go onto Youtube HERE. Make sure to watch it!

We hope to see you at GEWIS on June 28th June or later in the year at one of our activities!

Hugs,GR8-TIMES

Due to the covid pandemic, social life has deteriorated quite a bit. This is true for you as a student and your lecturers. TRAIN, first-year students of the FYC’s Meerkats and GeLØL want to give you a chance to catch up on all the missed small talk this year in our Online Café! After a short and handy workshop on social networking organized by trainers Imre Végh and Jan Reinder Rosing from “Project Wijsheid” (you might know them from Motivation in Isolation and Willpower!).

You will have the chance to meet and get to know 13 of your lecturers and other important people from TU/e on a more personal, casual level. You will be placed in a group with 2 or 3 other students so you also have the opportunity to expand your social network with colleague students. You are encouraged to just grab a beer, grab a snack, sit back and just chat about whatever comes to mind. Make sure to think about some questions or topics you want to talk about with the lecturers and others. In case the conversation gets stuck, you can always rely on some interesting topics and conversation starters as well as some interesting videos and situations to talk about.

There is a hard limit of 50 people to guarantee quality and enough time for each participant so make sure to sign up on time. The event starts at 19:00 and takes place through Zoom. It will be free but please unsubscribe if it turns out you're not available so we can make place for another person. We hope to see you there!

Many high-school students are doing their final exams right now and studying hard to be able to come to the TU/e next year. As many of you might remember, the university always organizes a study-choice check for prospective students. Like last year, GEWIS gets the opportunity to close off the rather serious day with a fun pubquiz! It's a wonderful opportunity for high-school students to get to know each other, but also for us, as GEWIS, to meet our soon-to-be members!

On the evening of June 15, the board will organize up a pubquiz for small groups of high-school students coming to study Applied Mathematics under guidance of GEWIS members. And that's where we need you! Do you want to help out on this cozy evening to meet and guide a small group of upcoming students? Subscribe below!

You don't have to study Applied Mathematics to volunteer for the pubquiz! More details will follow later.

It is almost time for the last exam weeks of the year. It is of course important to take a break from studying every once in a while. Thus we have an opportunity for you! Join us in a fun game of bowling on the 15th of June. We will start at 17:45 and play for one hour in groups of four. So plenty of time for you to relieve some stress and show off your awesome bowling skills! Participating in this ACtivity costs €2,00 for freshmen and €3,00 for other GEWIS-members.

There will be a maximum of 32 people that can join this ACtivity. We are working with a bACkup list, so it is still worth it to subscribe even if there are already 32 people subscribed! Also make sure to subscribe before the 13th of June 14:00.

Hope to see you there!

Hugs, the AC

(Be aware, this event is only for people who registered to be an intro-parent)

Disclaimer: It is not yet certain that this activity can take place in another form than mentioned below or at all.

Dear introparent,

Fortunately, there is a chance that this year we can have an introparent bonding activity (IBA)! This activity will take place on the 14th of June. During this activity we will be playing some games to get you acquainted with the introtheme. These games will be a surprise for now 🙂. This activity will be set up similarly to the borrels; you should subscribe with your fellow introparent and you will be placed on a yellow table together with another pair of parents. To make sure we can facilitate this activity for all subscribed introparents, we have to split up the IBA in two different timeslots. The first timeslot will be from 16:00 until 17:50. The second one will be from 18:10 until 20:00. When subscribing you can indicate which timeslot you prefer or indicate if you are not available in one. When indicating your preference please take into account that during the second timeslot, there will also be another GEWIS activity, namely the pubquiz for new students. So make sure you do not subscribe for both at the same time. (The BAC will be serving drinks so bring your BAC coins with you!) We hope to see you all!

Note: dinner will not be arranged. However, we will make sure there are some snacks for you.

Voelt het net alsof de muren op je af komen? Ben je toe aan frisse lucht? Wil je de parken van Eindhoven zien?

Dan heeft GEDWAAL de perfecte activiteit voor jou! In plaats van ons gebruikelijke winter wandel weekend hebben we volgende week zaterdag, 12 juni, een wandeltocht uitgezet door de prachtige parken van Eindhoven.

Om de hike uit te lopen moet je onderweg verschillende puzzels oplossen en tochtechnieken uitvoeren om de juiste routes te vinden. Je zal rondlopen in groepjes van 4 man, die wij zullen maken. Maar, als je wilt kan je je inschrijven met een vriend of vriendin en dan zullen wij er voor zorgen dat je samen in een groepje komt.

Om je te helpen met het overleven van eventueel verschillende extreme weersomstandigheden en de onvermijdelijke honger van het wandelen te overkomen hebben we voor ieder groepje een survivalpakket samengesteld.

Wil je graag meedoen? Schrijf je dan snel in, als we dinsdagavond 8 juni meer dan 28 inschrijvingen hebben dan zal er een loting plaatsvinden.

Hopelijk tot volgende week!

WHAT

EuroTeQ Engineering University is looking for an app to reach out to its students and collect their feedback in a continuous and fun way. The app should include elements of gamification and should allow us to collect feedback and share lessons learnt with targeted groups that use the app.The app is supposed to be engaging and should make students enthusiastic about participating continuously. One way of using gamification is introducing a friendly competitive element to the app. Think of a set of triggers that use university and regional pride to facilitate exchanging ideas and feedback competitively.

OUR MOTTO: DARE TO MAKE IT FUN!

What the app should look like is up to you! Teams will have 24 hours to develop a design idea and a pitch to show their idea to the judges. You do not have to create a demo version (but you can, of course!). We will provide the participating teams with a starter kit, including markers, post-its, merchandise and snacks to get you started.At the end of the 24 hours, each team will have 5 minutes to pitch their app design idea to the judges. How you pitch your idea is up to you. Just make sure you meet the brief: the app should be a tool for asking feedback and should include gamification elements.

You can pitch your design idea in any way you like, as long as we can watch it via Twitch livestream. Get creative!

All participants of the winning team will get their very own 3D printer!

WHERE

Central introduction, pitches and crowning of the winner will happen online via Twitch live stream and communication between teams will be facilitated via Discord.EuroTeQ Engineering University offers all participating teams a starter kit, including markers, post-its, drinks and snacks to get you all started.

WHO

Students from the six partner universities DTU, TalTech, CTU, TU/e, TUM and Ecole Polytechnique l'X are highly encouraged to join this event. It doesn’t matter if you are working on a BSc, MSc, PhD or PDEng degree, you’re all welcome to join. You can sign up in teams of 3-5 students.

What is your favorite thing to do when you have a break from lectures and instructions? That’s right, eat, drink and talk with friends. We want to organize an activity where all these things come together, namely a free picnic on campus.

On Friday, the 11th of June in the break (12:30-13:30), there will be one for you guys!You will get a little lunch package from us with some sandwiches, snacks and of course a (non-alcoholic) drink. All you have to bring is a good mood and “gezelligheid”.

You can subscribe below. Also, we want you to make a choice for the sandwiches and drinks so we can order exactly what you want. We do have a limit on the number of people allowed, so if there are too many people the first 50 will have a place to sit. If you are not with the first 50 people then you can pick up the lunch package but cannot attend the picnic.

The activity is meant as an opportunity for first year students, both in- and outside of GEWIS to meet each other under a nice lunch. This means that in case the hard limit is reached, first year students will have priority.

Dear members,

The planned constitution drink unfortunately wasn't in the cards, at least not according to our original plans. Instead we opted for a nice collaboration with the BAC to set-up a wonderful borrel where you can still enjoy the company of the current board in their full glory while they're still here!

You can sign up with a borrelbuddy, much like regular borrels. The theme is peach, so have a look through your wardrobe! 🍑🍑🍑Alternatively, order-committee-like attire or GEWIS ties also come highly recommended. To reward you for still showing your love to the current board we will provide you with a nice 'bestuursdrankje' on the side as well.

If more people are signed up than the capacity allows for we will have to hold a draw. Please note that the subscription deadline is Wednesday the 9th of June at 23:59 and we expect you to be there during the entire duration!

We look forward to seeing you,

Distant hugs,

The 39th board of GEWIS 🍑

W.S.G. Abacus, the study association for Applied Mathematics at the University of Twente, annually organizes a symposium oriented on mathematics. This year we have the great honor of organizing a Nationaal Wiskunde Symposium (NWS). This NWS will take place online on Friday the 4th of June 2021. The theme of this year’s NWS will be “Find your limit”.

During the current pandemic humankind, society, companies, and many more things are pushed to find their limits. Social distancing and other measures were applied based on mathematical models about the pandemic. While we believe enough is being spoken about the limiting factors of this pandemic, we became very interested in other limits that humans, society, and mathematics encounter. Some interesting talks during this NWS will cover (among others):

the limit of social media (fake news)the limit of the human life span

Enroll before the 23rd of May for a free goody bag! You will be welcome to join the NWS, including many interesting presentations. The full program of the day can be found here. You will also find some information about all lectures and lecturers there.If you have any questions or comments, please contact the board or the organizing party.

Simulation in a multidisciplinary engineering project

In this talk we look at how we can simulate a complex, multidisciplinary industrial process. Specifically, we look at the so-called Energiefabriek (Energy factory) in Hengelo. The Energiefabriek creates energy out of waste water sludge (=sewage). This projects involves chemical engineering, mechanical eng., electrical eng., and process automation. We created a simulator that lets you simulate the behaviour of all of these disciplines. We look at how we created it, and how we can use it to optimize the design of the Energiefabriek. Using an online Jupyter notebook, you are yourself invited to try and optimize the simulation model and solve our (self-inflicted) bugs.Witteveen+Bos is an engineering and consultancy firm, which specializes in projects in the fields of infrastructure, water, environment and construction. The content of this lecture will be updated soon, but you can already read more about Witteveen+Bos here!

GEWIS members will get the opportunity to receive free lunch, either by picking up a free Hubble lunch box (online participation) or there will be lunch facilitated (on campus participation).

Sioux Technologies partners with companies abroad (Romania, Germany, Vietnam and China) to extend their possibilities worldwide. Working with teams abroad can be challenging. You work on different locations and even in different time zones. In addition to that, you also need to overcome the language barriers and cultural differences. Making it feel as one team is challenging, but certainly not impossible. In this talk you will get insights in working with remote teams, the practical side, and the benefits. The talk is given by Koen van Langen.

Koen is a Senior Software Designer and has worked with remote teams on several projects. In his role he is responsible to collect requirements from the customer, create designs out of it and together with the team members abroad solve the problems of the customer. Koen guides and coaches the abroad team members to get to a qualified software solution. He combines a technical role, e.g., writing code, design, etc., with a more process-oriented role, by guiding the process and the team members from design to delivery.

GEWIS members will get the opportunity to receive free lunch, either by picking up a free Hubble lunch box (online participation) or there will be lunch facilitated (on campus participation). Currently we can not guarantee that the lecture will be hosted on campus. There will be a maximum of 30 places available for on campus participation.

Om het 8e lustrum van GEWIS zo onvergetelijk mogelijk te maken onderzoeken we het idee om eenmalig een prachtige lustrum skireis neerzetten, vandaar deze interesse lijst om te peilen hoeveel interesse er is bij GEWIS voor zo'n prachtige vakantie!

Het idee is om een (mid) week te gaan skiën in de Alpen in de eerste week van Q3, hierbij zal voor ongeveer 300 euro de reis, het verblijf en de skipas bij zijn inbegrepen. Mogelijk willen we ook een optie aanbieden om mee te gaan zonder skipas voor mensen die op een andere manier van de natuur willen geniet of alleen willen après skiën, dit zal voor een gereduceerde prijs zijn van rond de 150 euro.

Wat we graag zouden willen weten is of je mee zou willen gaan op een leuke skireis en of dit dan voor het skiën en après skiën is of dat er ook interesse is voor een optie zonder skipas om dan een (mid)week te genieten in de alpen van de natuur en omgeving of om de week lang te après skiën en het gebied op deze manier onveilig te maken.Mocht je nog vragen of opmerkingen hebben dan horen we het graag. Mocht je nou niet mee willen maar wel een opmerking hebben, laat het weten.

Beste leden/geïnteresseerden,

Zoals je misschien wel zou verwachten heeft GEWIS een hoop enthousiaste studenten nodig om te blijven draaien zoals onze studievereniging al jaren doet. Om dit allemaal soepeltjes te laten verlopen heeft GEWIS een heel aantal commissies met ieder zijn eigen functie en identiteit, waarin je een hoop nuttig dingen kunt leren maar het ook zeker heel leuk kunt hebben samen. Maar hoe kom je er nou achter wat bij jou past? Geen zorgen, we zullen het je makkelijk maken door alle commissies te verzamelen op een centraal punt waar ze allemaal bereid zijn om al jouw vragen te beantwoorden; de commissiemarkt.

Ook dit jaar is er weer een commissie markt! Kom gezellig praten met alle verschillende commissies binnen GEWIS om een idee te krijgen of ze misschien wel iets voor jou zijn! GEWIS heeft heel veel commissies, variërend van computer-onderhoud tot het opzetten van een zeilweekend. Om maar een paar gebieden te noemen waar onze verschillende commissies zich op focussen:

Het opzetten van leuke activiteiten voor de vereniging en haar leden / studenten van de faculteit, variërend van gesponsord pokeren tot aan het organiseren van "Wie is de mol"-geïnspireerde weekenden.Het opzetten van evenementen / activiteiten op het gebied van persoonlijke ontwikkeling en carrièreHet opzetten van evenementen / activiteiten op het gebied van onderwijsHet onderhouden van de GEWIS website en nieuwe features bouwenHet beheren en onderhouden van de GEWIS hardware, software en mailservicesHet onderhouden van de GEWIS huisstijl en nieuwe designs makenHet uitbrengen van het GEWIS magazine: SupremumHet maken van foto's tijdens activiteiten

Genoeg leuke dingen te doen dus, waar een hoop van te leren valt!

Zoals het informatie-overzicht suggereert zal deze editie van de commissiemarkt plaatsvinden op het platform Gather.town. Gebruik deze link om de online ruimte in te gaan. Je hoeft niet ingeschreven te staan om de ruimte in te gaan, maar het zou ons wel helpen als je je inschrijft als je van plan bent te komen zodat we een goede inschatting kunnen maken voor Gather.town!

Graag tot dan!

Every day is a holiday. And no, we’re not just saying that because we like holidays – it really is a special day every day, and as FESTIVITEIT we would love to celebrate all these days. However, most years we give priority to the bigger holidays, and the smaller ones get forgotten. But not this year! The small holidays deserve some recognition too, and that’s why we’ll dedicate an entire week to celebrating small holidays!

For each day of this week, we’ve selected a theme (to celebrate a holiday) and a colour (to celebrate pride month). Your job is to do something with this theme or this colour. You can put as much creativity and effort in this as you like: if, for example, the colour is purple and the theme is peanut butter, you can eat some peanut butter, create some purple peanut butter, make a dish using peanut butter, take a picture of something purple, make some art with peanut butter, write a poem in purple ink about peanut butter, do a photoshoot with peanut butter… you name it!

Each of your submissions will earn you points. The participant(s) with the most points at the end of the week will earn a prize. You'll receive a point if you submit something related to the theme or colour. You can receive an extra point by combining the theme and colour in one submission, or by making the most creative submission. The winner can choose between 3 pc games in which they can use their creativity.

So don’t hesitate and come celebrate some holidays with us!

Dear members,

After the great success of the First Years Borrel in the first quartile, FYS is hyped to announce the “Mixed Year’s Borrel” . Together with the BAC, we would like to give first years the chance to have a chat with the older members of GEWIS.

As we want First-Years to experience the social drink as it was before the pandemic, this borrel will be very similar to what once was considered a borrel in the GEWIS room, but then outside. Which is to say a lot of Grolsch, Broodjes Knak and some drinks well known throughout the association.

During this borrel every table will consist of two first-years and two older members. In other words, you can subscribe in pairs!

Disclaimer: Subscribe before Wednesday the 26th of May at 12:00h. We will create a mix of first year and older year students such that 50% will be first years and 50% will be older years. In case there are more people subscribed than can attend, we will have a draw.

Dear members,

ever wondered what Eindhoven looked 50 years ago? Of course you could go explore the online city archives to find out. But having been inside quite a bit the past few months already B.O.O.M. feels like we can all use some fresh air.

To take you on a cool tour through Eindhoven whilst doing a fun challenge we have decided the stratum games would be given a new format this year! Sign up in teams of at most 4 people and go on a quest through Eindhoven. We will send you a bunch of pictures from back in the day, which you and your team need to match up to present day Eindhoven.

We can understand that can be quite the challenge so to make sure you have enough time on your hands we decided to give you one full week to complete as many pictures as possible. The team(s) that find the most spots will win amazing prices! A bonus price for the most creative picture is also up for grabs. Of course make sure you do everything in a corona-safe matter.

We look forward to receiving your pictures!

Hello beautiful members of GEWIS!

FYC 21-3 GELØL will be hosting a cocktail night! We will be streaming on the 21st of May. If you choose to sign up, we will provide you with several ingredients that you will use to make four epic cocktails with us during the stream! The ingredients can be picked up at a place and time we will provide later via email.

During the stream, we will also provide some interesting facts per cocktail, but we of course won’t be doing only cocktail making, as we have some fun segments in between to lighten the mood. Spoiler alert: there will be an epic Kahoot quiz.

You can even choose to get together with a couple of friends (to the extent the current measures allow) and sign up together to enjoy the cocktails in great company! If you’re curious, as an example, we’ll be making a Blue Hawaii(an). And more of course, but we don’t want to spoil too much!

Unfortunately, we have to put a hard limit on the number of people that can sign up. This is because ordering and packing ingredients has to happen in advance. We have decided to enforce a limit of 60 people. But don’t be sad and sign up before the 14th of May! We will use first come first serve policy.

We hope to see you on Friday the 21st!

This year, GELIMBO returns with a very special edition of the annual GELIMBO Quiz. Year after year, you had the possibility to prove that you know the smartest people by joining them in a team and competing in the GELIMBO Pubquiz. However, this has always been a team effort, but now you will have the opportunity to show how knowledgeable you actually are. Can you outsmart all the other participants?

At the beginning of the show a brainteaser will decide who will be The One on the hot seat. In the spotlight, you will have to answer multiple choice questions! However, the other participants also want to be in the spotlight, so they will answer the questions via an online system before you do. As long as you keep answering the questions correctly, you will remain on the hot seat. As soon as you give an incorrect answer, another participant will take your place.

However, you want to be in the spotlight, because if you can answer the one million dollar question correctly while you are in the spotlight, you will win a prize! As there are multiple one million dollar questions, there are multiple chances for you to win a prize. After a one million dollar question, a new brainteaser will decide who will be on the hot seat for the next round! Of course, getting in the spotlight has some luck involved, so we will also give a prize to the person who answered the most questions correctly!

So subscribe right now and show that you can beat the other 111 contestants!

With southern delights, Fraternity GELIMBO

APIs Done Right (Or at least not entirely wrong)

Have you ever wondered, what are the worst things a developer can do while designing an API ( big or small ) that would drive their colleagues crazy. Those things that will make everyone look at your work and say ( why?...Just why? ). Sometimes learning by wrong example is the fastest way to learn. Join me in a quick overview of how to develop a coherent API from day 1, or rather, how not to do it entirely wrong. Roberto Marques from Wolfpack will share with you my top 10 simple rules of API development gathered over 10 years of experience and personal trial and error. “You may even learn how not to do something wrong today”GEWIS members will get the opportunity to receive free lunch, either by picking up a free Hubble lunch box (online participation) or there will be lunch facilitated (on campus participation).

Most of you remember the Sunday of a typical GEWIS weekend. For those of you who don’t and for the rest of you that would like to reminisce about these wonderful days, I’ll describe the experience for you. You wake up with a headache. If you’re fortunate enough you get served a delightful beer in bed. Others are already awake and busy, too busy for your taste. You make your way to the general room and see the mess that others are trying to tidy up. You start remembering most of what happened the day before and you share a good laugh with your fellow students. After you’ve cleaned up what you deemed your part of the mess and have scavenged together some breakfast, you look for a car ride home and prepare for that nauseating drive.

This years Sunday experience of our Digital Decadent Weekend will be a little different. You’ll most likely, and hopefully, still wake up with a headache and memories of an amazing meal the evening before. You’ll be in your own bed a little lonely and miss the comradery to share your misery with. Fortunately, we have a solution.

The Sunday of our Digital Decadent Weekend we will stream one of the most classic TV shows of all time. Yes this is exactly what you’re thinking, dispuut “In Vino Veritas” will provide a live stream of our favorite series the Lullo’s. You are all welcomed to the GEWIS discord in which we will screen share the Lullo’s. You’ll be able to chat with your fellow hangover GEWIS members and your favorite I.V.V’ers. In this way we can all pass the time until our hangover has faded together and share a good laugh along the way.

Dear food lover, As previous participants will confirm, the Decadent Weekend is most famous for its Saturday evening. Tucked away in a foreign castle, the gentlemen of I.V.V have come together to prepare a luxurious seven-course dinner for their guests on the Saturday evening. While the guests are entertained through other means during the day, I.V.V spends all day cooking and baking the most delicious and exciting meals to surprise your tastebuds later that evening. Unfortunately, Mister Corona does not allow us to come together in a large group and enjoy a candlelit dinner. Luckily, I.V.V has been able to take the experience to your doorstep. The boys of Keuken met I.V.V will be joined by a special guest to prepare a four-course meal through a live cooking-stream, and you can even cook along! We will supply you with a box containing all the ingredients and along with the instructions of Dhr. Houthuijs and the special guest, provide you with all the means to create this four-course meal for your guests. The only thing you must do is make sure your wine cellar is stocked. Not convinced yet? Here are some spoilers on the menu.

Amuse: Parmaham-package filled with ricotta and asparagusStarter: Undisclosed I.V.V-SpecialtyMain: Herb-crusted Lamb-Rack with roast potato and caramelised vegetablesDessert: Avocado-Chocolate Mousse with fresh fruit

Unlike previews editions of Keuken met I.V.V this edition will be in English! You can join in groups of 2 or 4, as the corona-measures are still unsure. Note that the maximum number of participants is 60! On Wednesday 12 May we will deliver a package containing all the ingredients, but we do expect you to have some basic products at home, like olive oil, salt, pepper, etc. Make sure you or one of your friends have a blender/food-processor as this is required for the dessert. Also, please mention whether you will be eating with GEWIS-members, Non-GEWIS-members or first years! Unfortunately, there is no vegetarian alternative for the menu above, but be sure to look out for a vega-edition of Keuken met I.V.V in the future! If you have questions about food-allergies, just email us at ivv@gewis.nl!

Waarde GEWIS-leden,

Hèt weekend van het jaar komt er aan. Een weekend dat normaal natuurlijk wordt gedicteerd door een gepaste mate van decadentie, onwaarschijnlijk hoge vormen van entertainment en uiteraard overvloedige wijnconsumptie maakt ook dit jaar zijn wederopstanding, al is het in een alternatieve vorm. Dispuut “In Vino Veritas” staat ook dit maal klaar om voor u allen een Digitaal Decadent Weekend te organiseren.

De gebruikelijke levensweg richting een exquisiet kasteel moet dit jaar helaas plaats maken voor de makkelijke weg naar het digitaal treffen. Laat dit u er echter niet van weerhouden om deel te nemen aan deze series evenementen, want de kwaliteit van het vermaak zal er niet onder lijden! Waar u normaal tijdens de zaterdagmiddag van een Decadent Weekend op pad wordt gestuurd om Hèt Dispuut tijd en ruimte te geven om in de keuken een prachtdiner voor u te bereiden, zal u dit maal de kans krijgen om een kijkje in de spreekwoordelijke keuken van Dispuut “In Vino Veritas” te nemen.

Met veel trots en genot presenteren wij de Open Algemene Digitale Dispuutsvergadering (OADDV). Gedurende de middag krijgt u de kans om aan te sluiten bij een online vergadering vol met de gebruikelijke serieuze besluiten, luidruchtig gebral, “jajajaja’s” en vin. Liters vin. Let op! Het druivennat voor deze gelegenheid zal door uzelf aangeschaft moeten worden. Tevens is het ook aangeraden om uzelf te voorzien met een overvloed aan decadente kwaliteitshapjes. Mocht u hierin geslaagd zijn, rest het louter om digitaal in te bellen via de GEWIScordserver. De OADDV zal aanvangen om 13:00 op zaterdag 15 mei aanstaande.

Tabee en tot dan!

Met joviale groet,Bouke BosmaPraeses der Dispuut “In Vino Veritas”

P.S.: Vergeet niet te drinken!

Imagine a world after the lockdown. You are once again able to visit the cinemas and restaurants and you’re having a reunion with your friends. You have decided to go to dinner in a high class establishment using the money you have saved during the lockdown. Naturally you decide to order a bottle of wine, but then it hits you. You’re looking at the wine menu and you can’t tell the temperanillo and chenin blanc apart. You don’t even know which one is red or white.

The above scenario should be prevented at all costs. Fortunately, dispuut “In Vino Veritas” is there to help you out. We offer you the opportunity to keep your knowledge on par, refresh your memory or gain a better understanding of wine by means of an online wine tasting experience. Under the guidance of our more than capable Vinoloog der dispuut “In Vino Veritas” Mgr. Sanders you will be able to taste an x-amount of delicious wines. When the evening ends you’ll know almost everything there is to know about these wines and you’ll have the confidence to order the right wine during your future dinners.

In order to let this activity be a success in these unsure times we are prepared for two scenarios. The first scenario which is the one we are hoping for, is that you will be allowed to gather in groups of four. In this scenario each group will receive a wine tasting kit consisting of six half bottles of wine.

In the scenario that we are only allowed to gather in groups of two we will provide a separate white and red wine tasting kit. Both kits will contain three half bottles of wine. You are allowed to order both kits but this also comes at double the cost.

Regardless of the sizes of the groups we wouldn’t dare serving you wine without also serving a few delicacies to prime your taste buds. The wine tasting kits will have to be picked up at a to be disclosed date and location a few days prior to the activity. The costs for this online wine tasting experience will be €5,- per person. A group of four will have to pay a total of €20,- and a group of two would be a total of €10,-. In order to be able to welcome as many first years as possible we have arranged for a €1,- discount for all first years taking part in this activity.

In case the explanation above might not have convinced you entirely, there is also the opportunity to win a prize. The group that is best able to absorb the wisdom Mgr. Sanders will share during the activity and thus is best able to answer his questions about the wines, will win this prize. What this prize is will remain a secret for a little while longer but I can assure you, it would be an honor.

We hope to welcome all of you at our online wine tasting experience especially as this activity will also mark the opening of our Digital Decadent Weekend.

Note that there is a maximum of 80 participants. Note that if you have subscribed with two people you have to mention your choice of wine (white or red). There is a 50-50 ratio of red and white wines, so first come first serve!

The past year has been marked with disappointment and discontinued activities. We of dispuut “In Vino Veritas” have experienced this ourselves as well. Nevertheless we have found a way to overcome these obstacles. Similarly, I am sure all of us will overcome these troubling times as well. We are proud to inform you that we have found a way to deliver the entire experience of our famed Decadent Weekend to the comfort of your own home. We would like to announce, and are doing so in this piece of writing, our first Digital Decadent Weekend.

Anyone who has ever partaken in our Decadent Weekend can agree that the wine should always be plentiful and of supreme quality. In order to satisfy this need we mark the opening of our Digital Decadent Weekend by means of our Online Winetasting activity. Our very own renowned Vinoloog der dispuut “In Vino Veritas” Mgr. Sanders will guide you through the experience of properly tasting wine. He will not only dispense his wisdom, he will also test your ability absorb this information and put it into practice. The group that can answer Mgr. Sanders’ questions about these wines the best, will win a prize that is an absolute honor to receive.

During previous editions of our Decadent Weekend we have always provided entertainment during the Saturday afternoon while the main force of I.V.V prepares an outstanding dinner. This edition of our Digital Decadent Weekend will be no different. In case you have ever wondered what it would be like to be a member of dispuut “In Vino Veritas” we offer you a glimpse of this experience. Rather, we offer you the opportunity to experience what it would be like to be a spectator at one of our assemblies. We will hold an Online Open General Fraternity Assembly. Any GEWIS member is invited to listen to us discuss the finer and more important things in life and perhaps pitch in on a few of the subjects.

As per usual the Saturday evening will entirely revolve around one of the most exquisite diners of the year. You have all had the chance to take part in one of our Keuken met I.V.V streams. During this weekend we will take this concept to the next level. We offer the opportunity to take a peak into the kitchen of dispuut “In Vino Veritas” as we prepare a dinner worthy of a Digital Decadent Weekend. Not only will you be able to behold the expertise of our chefs, we also provide the necessary ingredients and instructions for anyone to cook along with us. This can only be described as the opportunity of a lifetime to take your cooking close to the level of dispuut “In Vino Veritas”.

After all this greatness and the accompanying amounts of wine, we understand that everyone needs a moment to wind down. No need to fret, we have prepared for this as well. The Sunday morning is usually marked by a hangover, cleaning, scavenging for breakfast and preparing for the ride home. The highlight of the morning is often being able to share the misery of your hangover and reminisce about the previous few days. We deem the latter important. Therefore we will setup a livestream of one of our favorite TV shows, de Lullo’s. Anyone is invited to join us in the GEWIS discord and watch one of our favorite series together with us and pass the time until our hangovers have passed.

In order to join us on this weekend filled with decadency, wine and good company you can subscribe to any and all of the activities described above on the GEWIS website.

Dear GEWISsers,

Finally the curfew has been lifted, which comes at a very welcome time, given that spring is bringing beautiful new life and the weather is getting better. A perfect time to enjoy the weather during the day, and have a joyful cozy evening after the sun has disappeared behind the beautiful urban jungle called Eindhoven.

Luckily, when you are sad to go inside this Friday, Dispuut "In Vino Veritas" will make sure you are not bored. Make sure you gather some lovely 'vinos' and join us in the broadcast of "I.V.V Winemasters". In this episode you can spectate all the creative ways in which the contestants of the earlier held competition have performed their tasks. The Winemaster will then score each submission and decide the winner of the episode.

The broadcast will start at 7 o'clock in the evening and can be seen at https://twitch.tv/hetdispuut. We invite everyone to watch and find out who has been the most creative in finding inventive solutions to the obscure tasks.

With jolly regards,Dispuut "In Vino Veritas"

This lecture will be given in DutchGehackt en nu?

Je vermoed dat je bedrijf is gehackt en dat je mogelijke schade hierdoor leidt. Wat nu? Wat dan begint is incident response fase. Wat gebeurt er allemaal precies als je incident response uitvoert? Het Blue Team van Ordina zal je meenemen aan de hand van een casus door de stappen van incident response om een vermoedelijke hack te analyseren en op te lossen. We nemen je mee in de ervaring van het Blue Team hoe het is om incident response uit te voeren. We zullen daarbij inzoomen op het onderzoek hoe de hack is ontstaan, het oplossen van de hack en niet te vergeten het kijken naar de toekomst zodat dit niet nog een keer voorkomt. Het blussen van de brand is één maar het ervoor zorgen dat de brand niet weer ontstaat is ook belangrijk. Graag zien we je bij de lunchlezing zodat we je hier meer over kunnen vertellen.GEWIS leden kunnen gratis lunch krijgen, ofwel door het ophalen van een Hubble lunch box (online deelname) ofwel er wordt lunch gefaciliteerd (op campus deelname). Op het moment kunnen we niet garanderen dat deze lezing op campus georganiseerd kanworden. Er zullen maximaal 30 plekken beschikbaar zijn voor op campus deelname.

TL;DR: Interested in a study trip in the summer of 2022/2023? Subscribe! Hey there! Every 2 years a group of GEWIS members go on an amazing studytrip during the summer holidays. These trips are organized by a committee of GEWIS members, along the way SSG (Stichting Studiereizen GEWIS) is there to help them. On the trip you'll go to some foreign companies, universities and of course have a bunch of fun abroad! With corona still not fully under control we are looking into the possibility of setting up a new travel committee if enough people are interested in going on a super cool study trip in the summer vacation of 2022. Looking at the current situation in the world the study trip would probably be a bit closer at home (think Europe) than the previous two (South Africa & Brazil). For the people that are not only interested in going on a study trip but would also love to organize it you can tick the box below! We'll contact those people by mail for an info lunch. Please note that this is only an opportunity to learn more and you aren't bound to anything when signing up! Do not hesitate to contact ssg@gewis.nl if you have anymore questions.

Beste Batavieren,

Het is weer zover, de Batavierenrace vind dit jaar plaats op 23 en 24 april! Helaas, net als vorig jaar, in alternatieve vorm. Desalniettemin maken we er het beste van!We moeten samen 250 kilometer rennen. Dit betekent dat we screenshots van hardloopapps waarop de route, de afstand, de tijd en jouw naam staat moeten verzamelen. Dus als je wilt deelnemen, loop een afstand van tenminste 5 kilometer en maak een screenshot van je rondje. Stuur deze screenshot door via de mail aan bata@gewis.nl en doe zo mee met de online Batavierenrace!

Omdat we elkaar niet kunnen aanmoedigen is het leuk wanneer er zelf selfies gemaakt kunnen worden bij je start en finish van je loop om zo toch een mooie sfeerimpressie te krijgen. Na afloop is een gepaste afsluiting natuurlijk wel benodigd, dus starten wij zaterdagavond een online borrel om toch het feestje er een beetje in te houden. Leuk idee? Iedereen kan meedoen dus schrijf je snel in, zodat wij zeker weten dat we voldoende deelnemers hebben.Voor iedereens veiligheid is het belangrijk om tijdens het hardlopen de Corona maatregelen te volgen. Zo kunnen we samen een mooie editie van de online Batavierenrace maken.

Met sportieve groetjes,De Bata commissie

Dear member,

You will probably have heard something about the SNiC, a student symposium for computer science students from study associations all over the Netherlands which takes place (almost) every year. GEWIS has arrived at a unique opportunity to do a bid (organisation proposal) for November 2022!

For that reason we are looking for students that would like to become a part of the committee that sets up the aforementioned edition! With the help of the SNiC advisory organ you will organize a symposium for around 700 students from all over the country. You will have contact with lots of interesting speakers and companies. Or you will make sure the conference room suits perfectly for the keynotes and everyone has a delicious lunch and dinner. If you are interested in doing this or would like more information, please send a mail to snicboard@gewis.nl!

If you're still a bit unsure or would like more information we've set-up an info session to help you decide. Subscribe below!

With kind regards,The 39th board

Daarom bieden we iedereen de mogelijkheid aan om een Uitdaging Doos te kopen! Deze Doos bevat alles wat je nodig hebt om de uitdagingen te volbrengen en de spelshow te winnen!

Défi zou Défi alleen niet zijn als we alles al zouden vertellen.. Wees daarom voorbereid op onverwachte gebeurtenissen, gekke rondes vol trivia, en heel veel plezier tijdens de spelshow.

Er zijn maar 72 Uitdaging Dozen beschikbaar. Als er meer dan 72 inschrijvingen zijn binnen 24 uur na opening van de activiteit, zullen we loten. De Uitdaging Doos moet opgehaald worden bij GEWIS. Als je je inschrijft voor de Doos, zorg dan dat je beschikbaar bent om deze op te halen of zorg ervoor dat iemand anders deze voor je meeneemt.

Mocht je geen Uitdaging Doos willen of ze zijn op, dan zorgt Défi ervoor dat je van tevoren een boodschappenlijstje krijgt voor de uitdagingen. Het is niet verplicht hier alles van te halen, maar sommige uitdagingen kunnen niet zonder volbracht worden.

Je kunt deelnemen aan de spelshow in teams van 4-6 personen. Schrijf je hier beneden in en vernoem je teamnaam!

Hopelijk zien we je bij Do It With Défi!💜

In these weary times of lockdown there are lots of things to be missed: think of parties, festivals and concerts. However, if you are a true GEWIS’er, chances are that you miss the Thursday borrels most of all. So does the BAC. In fact, no one misses the borrels more than the BAC! Since it’s hard for us to organise activities these days, we are afraid that you forgot who we are, or even worse, that you might not even know us yet. Therefore, we came up with something that is similar to the regular borrel experience, where you also get to know us (once again): an evening filled with beer, some snacks and (you’ll have to find this yourself) good company. We made a selection of 8 very diverse special beers, which you can drink together with a friend! There is a twist: we will remove the labels of the beers, so you can test your beer tasting skills, and see if you recognise which beer you are drinking. We will also provide some trademark borrel snacks for you to go along with the beers! Don’t worry about this being a contest, if you participate you are automatically a winner (after all, drinking is winning and winning is drinking!), we will, however, provide a form in which you can check how many beers you did recognise. Each beer package is meant for 2 persons. So find a friend with just as much love for beer as you, and subscribe now! Note that there are only 48 packages, and the subscription deadline is Thursday the 8th of April! Late subscriptions can not be accomodated. There will not be a draw.

Note2: You will need to pick up the beer package between Monday 12th en Thursday 15th of April. You can come by GEWIS to pick it up between 10:00 and 16:00, but to make sure that GEWIS is open, you will have to reach out to the board beforehand via whatsapp: 040-2472815

Ken je dat gevoel dat je op de GEWIS site naar je eigen foto's kijkt, en dat de foto's van de carnavalsborrel van vorig jaar behoorlijk prominent op de eerste pagina staan? Of dat gevoel dat je eigenlijk geen goede, recente profielfoto meer hebt voor je GEWIS profiel? Of dat je de hele dag op je kamer zit en je je dagelijkse sleur eventjes wilt doorbreken? Wij ook! Gelukkig is GEFLITST hier om te helpen! "Normaal" zouden wij al twee photobooths opgezet hebben, maar dit jaar maar liefst 0. Daarom organiseren wij op vrijdag 26 maart een outdoor drive-in photobooth in de Karpendonkse Plas! Het is heel simpel: je schrijft je in op de GEWIS site en kiest een tijdslot in de Doodle om met een maatje op de foto te gaan. Je zoekt thuis wat leuke attributen, stopt ze in je tas, neemt ze mee naar de Karpendonkse Plas en gaat ermee op de foto (en je met je maatje natuurlijk)! Vervolgens zal GEFLITST deze pareltjes der beeldkunst ouderwets bewerken en publiceren op de GEWIS website! Zo heb je eigenlijk weer een toffe foto voor op je GEWIS profiel, en ben je weer een keertje buiten geweest. De fotografen zullen tijdens de activiteit gepaste afstand houden en de coronamaatregelen in acht nemen. Zorg ervoor dat je niet te veel voor je tijdslot aanwezig bent of te lang blijft plakken na je tijdslot, zodat er geen groepsvorming ontstaat. Bij (echt) slecht weer zullen we de activiteit afblazen. De exacte locatie van de photobooth wordt donderdagavond per mail verzonden, dus vergeet je niet in te schrijven op de GEWIS website. Tot dan! Vul hier de Doodle in, nadat je je hebt ingeschreven met je maatje.

Stel je voor, je bent lekker met je dag bezig, colleges aan het volgen, assignments aan doen, als je opeens schokkend nieuws hoort. Een van de TU/e professoren van Computer Science en Technische Wiskunde is dood gevonden. Je bent al een tijdje aan het werk en kan wel een pauze gebruiken, dus om uit te stellen (Ik bedoel om de academische eer en gerechtigheid) besluit je de boel te onderzoeken. Want als er iemand is die dit mysterie kan oplossen, dan zijn het de algoritmische, door logica gedreven denkers van GEWIS!

Dus raap je vrienden bij elkaar (3-6 personen) en schuif aan voor een spannende nacht vol raadsels en mysterie. Geen vrienden? Geen probleem! Schrijf je toch in en wij zorgen ervoor dat je bij een groep zit om mee te spelen zodat je nog wat coole nieuwe mensen kan ontmoeten. Als je je hebt ingeschreven zul je de Discord server kunnen joinen zodat de Meerkats' begeleiders je door het verhaal kunnen leiden. Je zal als een team beslissingen moeten maken zodat je de puzzel op kan lossen en erachter kan komen wie de professor heeft vermoord.

Maak je agenda vrij op 25 maart en kom dit murder mystery samen met ons oplossen. We hopen je dan te zien : )

Project TITAN - An In-Memory High Performance Calculation Engine Anago 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 that is becoming a bottleneck. We want to replace this technology by developing a new In-Memory High Performance Calculation Engine. The new calculation should support the following: - Automatic Parallel (multithreaded) calculations

Sparse data handlingEfficient Matrix calculationsLazy (on the fly) calculationsLanguage parsing and compiling

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 In-Memory calculation 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. The lecture will be given by Fraser Wilson, Software Architect at Anago and Thomas de Nooij, Founder of Anago. Note that we can not guarantee at this moment that we can host this lecture on campus. For the on campus lecture that are only 30 spots available, for which a draw will be held. If you would like to attend on campus, please subscribe Thursday before the lecture takes place.

If you already have experience with GitHub or other platforms that use GIT, you might have wondered what the command line of GIT looks like. A more profound understanding of the underlying commands allows for skills that will not only be useful for working on group projects, but also later in life! That is why TRAIN organizes an Advanced GIT training on March 23rd. During this training, we will dive deeper into the details of git functionalities, as well as exploring more advanced features.

During the training the following topics will be discussed:

What exactly happens when I checkout a branch or pull code?How to merge or rebase a branch and resolve conflictsForking a repository and creating a pull requestContinuous integration

The training takes places online from 19:30 until 21:30. The training will be provided by trainer Gert Jan Timmerman from Info Support. Are you interested to hear more about Info Support as a company? Then let us know via the subscription on the GEWIS website.

Are there specific things you would like to learn? Send them in via train@gewis.nl!

Does this all sounds too difficult for you? Then the Beginner GIT Training on March 16th might be interesting for you!

FYC The Beer Musketeers presents: The Pokémon drinking game.

On the 19th of march we will be hosting the Pokémon drinking game.In the Pokémon drinking game you will venture onto an epic drinking journey. You will travel across Kanto or Johto to acquire all eight badges from the gym masters. At the end you will prove yourself in a battle with the Elite Four. The first one to beat all of this will become a real Pokémon MASTER.

The Pokémon drinking game is in its essence the game of the goose (Ganzenbord) except at every tile there is a task which is based on either a Pokémon or another trainer. In addition of having normal tiles you also have the gyms. These tiles cannot be skipped, and each have a bigger task which requires you to drink more or maybe your friends are the ones who have to do the drinking!

If you are not interested yet there will also be a prize for each winner of the matches.You can sign up and indicate if you want to be matched with up to 3 friends by choosing the same team name.

You can indicate what game mode you want to play, normal, where you will be playing with a small group of around 4 people. Or you can choose for hard mode, where you will be playing with a group of around 8 people.

The event will take place Friday 19 march and will be hosted on the GEWIScord, but make sure you sign up before the 18th so we can assign you to groups.

Zoals aangekondigd op de afgelopen AV, moeten we nog één statutenwijziging voorbereiden voordat we naar de notaris kunnen gaan. Dit komt door de nieuwe Wet Toezicht en Bestuur Rechtspersonen ('WBTR'), die in januari van kracht werd.

Voor deze wet moeten wij nog één kleine wijziging doen. Deze brainstorm wordt georganiseerd om deze wijziging te maken. Tijdens de meeting gaan we een antwoord zoeken op de vraag: Wie moet GEWIS besturen, wanneer het hele huidige bestuur dat niet meer kan? Dit geldt voor zowel ontslag van het bestuur als onvoorziene omstandigheden (bijvoorbeeld ziekte).

Bij de vorige AV zei het bestuur dat ze een AVW wilden oprichten voor deze taak. Echter, omdat het toch een relatief kleine niet-ingrijpende wijziging is, heeft het bestuur besloten een brainstorm te organiseren.

Dus kom naar de meeting en deel je ideeën! We zien jullie daar!

Wondering how you get into Google? This talk is about the interview process at Google, and how to prepare for it. The host is Sander Alewijnse, who started his job as software engineer at Google London 7 years ago after graduating from the TU Eindhoven and being active at GEWIS. Besides his main job working on various software projects (Android, the Google Play store, Google Fit and Fitbit) he has led plenty of coding interviews and knows all the ins and outs about applying at Google, which this talk will focus on.

This activity is a collaboration of GEWIS and Break the Algo (breakthealgo.com), who will also be hosting mock interview sessions. Here Sander will also be hosting technical mock interviews to prepare you even better for a job application at Google. During the mock interview, you will be asked to write code to solve a given problem and discuss your decisions along the way. Make sure to brush up on your data structures and algorithms before applying for this exciting opportunity here.

It’s winter, and despite the mild temperatures the past days, it is still quite barren outside. We, for one, quite miss the colourful flowers and bright green leaves. Luckily we have found the perfect way to bring some green back in your lives: we are going to celebrate Saint Patrick’s day!

Saint Patrick’s day is celebrated on the 17th of March, and while the holiday didn’t start out that way, drinking alcohol has become an integral part of the celebration. Therefore we want to invite you all to a Saint Patrick’s day borrel! We have built a beautiful replica of GEWIS for this borrel (see our Instagram for a preview) which will be used in combination with proximity chat to replicate the feeling of being back at GEWIS.

Of course a borrel is not complete without a borrel card, so we made one for you! It includes four Irish craft beers, and it costs 8 euros. After the subscription deadline has passed, you will get an email about where and when (probably March 16/17) you can pick up your drinks.

During the borrel, there will be some (drinking) games, but you can also just chat with your friends while enjoying some Irish beer.

See you then!

Working on a project mostly means writing code, and working on a project in a team means sharing code, which often goes wrong if you send your code via a text file by email. Luckily for us a solution to this problem already exists; the code sharing language GIT. GIT makes coding together a lot easier! Learn how to use GIT at the GitHub beginner training from TRAIN. This training is aimed at students that have no (or little) experience with code sharing platforms, and who would like to learn how to effectively work on code together with their fellow students, at the same time.

We will be using GitHub desktop to explore the basics of GIT during the training. During the training you will learn the following skills:

Creating and sharing a repositoryPulling and pushing codeCreating and merging branches

The training takes places online from 19:30 until 20:30 and you will be able to ask further questions until 21:00. The training will be provided by trainer Gert Jan Timmerman from Info Support. Are you interested to hear more about Info Support as a company? Then let us know via the subscription on the GEWIS website.

Are there specific things you would like to learn? Send them in via train@gewis.nl!

Does this all sounds too simple for you? Then the Advanced GIT Training on March 23rd might be interesting for you!

This year has known a tough start. There seems to be no difference between one day and the next. Friends seem further away than ever and all time seems to consist of is working, eating and sleeping.

The members of I.V.V have recognized this problem and are here with a solution: a sequel to the widely famous and beloved Keuken with I.V.V! Not only will you get a full night (which only last until 20:30 these days, sadly) of excitement and entertainment, but we will help you broaden your taste palette with some heartwarming new dishes!

The theme of this episode will be of a somewhat religious nature: Easter! As Jesus rises from his grave during this holiday, so will Keuken with I.V.V be resurrected on Friday the 12th of March, 2021.

The chosen delicacies for this episode also feature an Easter-related theme: rabbit will be the meat of choice. With this rather special animal we will cook three types of dishes: a professionally prepared pasta, a special Lord of the Rings-inspired stupendously satisfying stew, and finally a remarkably rich roasted rabbit.

If you, alone or in a group of up to 3 people, wish to cook along with any of these recipes, you have the option to get the rabbit and most of the key ingredients delivered to your home. Please subscribe on the GEWIS website and indicate which recipe you want to cook for how many GEWIS members. If you wish to cook this with/for non-GEWIS members, please contact us separately, because this will include additional costs. The costs for a GEWIS member are 7 euros. If many people join and money is left over, participants will get some of this money back, depending on the surplus.

Only 15 groups can participate, so be sure to subscribe quickly before the spots run out! Because we need to order the rabbit quite early, the subscription list already closes on Sunday March 7, at 23:59.

We hope to see you in chat on twitch.tv/hetdispuut on Friday March 12 at 17:00!

These days, all we do is dream of going outside freely. Well, guess what! FYS is now organizing an online activity involving exactly this; dreaming of living in a fictional pandemic-free world.

Although there might not be such a thing as COVID-19, this fictional world is haunted by werewolves. The game itself goes by many names and the chance is slim you have yet to encounter some form of it. Some may know it as “Town of Salem”, although most people who grew up in the Netherlands will have it ingrained as “Weerwolven van Wakkerdam”. On the dreary evening of Thursday March the 11th we will try to get rid of these werewolves once and for all. The game will be set-up on the GEWIScord and we as FYS will guide you all through the process.

Please note that in this activity interaction and conviction are key, so having a working camera really helps. Hence make sure you camera is working and you can look the wolves into their eyes during the daytime.

Undoubtedly, it will be a fun evening and we hope to see you there!

Presenting, one of the academic skills. The one that becomes quite different in an online setting. Due to Corona, most of us have all been confronted with this, especially Bachelor students with their BFP and Master students with their final project.

You get less nervous because you don't see that much eyes in your direction and you're in your own room. But how do you make sure that every listener keeps paying attention? Or that there is still some interaction?

You'll learn this and much more in the Online Presenting training organized by TRAIN and SkillsLab!

Kickstarting Your Azure Pipeline with Templates

Wouter Ligtenberg, a GEWIS alumnus, will talk on behalf of ING!

Azure pipeline templates are a powerful way of scaling your CI/CD pipelines throughout your organization. When combining it with software engineering practices it becomes a powerful tool in speeding up the build and release work done by DevOps teams.

Templates facilitate the creation of scalable, parameterized pipelines that can be unit tested and ensure pipeline immutability while remaining a consistent and transparent single source of truth.

The ING DevOps engineering team has created a way to build and deploy JVM applications in the cloud to be consumed by multiple teams from the entire tribe and more by using templates developed in Azure DevOps with the goal to automate a pipeline end to end, from code to runtime.

To achieve this, they wrote code to automate everything and also created a system to manage these pipelines. Some other objectives they set for themselves were:

maintenance of the pipeline must be lowthe pipeline must have a versioning in place as to not break consumers pipelines when we update itit must be flexible, for different languages and applicationsany of their colleagues should be able to contribute, using an open source model

In this talk, you'll learn:

How Azure pipeline templates can scale your CI/CD pipelines organization-wideHow Azure pipeline templates can help speed up your DevOps team's build and release cycleHow ING are utilizing and managing their DevOps pipelines

You can enroll for the masterclass here!

The world is confronted with the coronavirus for over a year. In response, we faced measures that drastically curtail our freedoms for months. The consequences are noticeable in many areas. Last but not least, the effects of this put pressure on our (psychological) well-being. You may also recognize this. For example, you can suffer from feelings of loneliness, less (study) motivation, and concentration. Perhaps you are worried about your health or that of others, and you are sleeping less well, feel uncertain about the (near) future, worried about your studies, or experience feelings of sadness and tension.

If you recognize these kinds of feelings, Pattern, GEWIS and the academic advisors encourage you to attend the Masterclass "Support your Well-being in times of Covid-19"! This masterclass examines insights, strategies, and tips that can help you support your well-being during this exceptional situation with which we all are being confronted.

The masterclass is online and is offered twice for M&CS-students. You can register yourself via this form; you will receive a link via email to join shortly before the masterclass. Please also let us know via the registration form if you would like to attend a masterclass, but you are not available on the offered timeslots.

Compilers are often seen as black boxes which perform magic. For his graduation-project at Prodrive, “Compiling Motion Control Algorithms for Domain Specific Computer Architectures”, Simon is developing a compiler using LLVM. He will take you on a tour through the scary world of compilers. In the end you may find that, even though compilers are complex, they also do a lot of cute stuff like subgraph isomorphism and graph coloring. If you end up writing your own compiler at home, no worries, that is normal behavior.Curious for more? Then register yourself for the GEWIS lunch lecture on February 23nd 2021.

This workshop will be in Dutch

Welke rol neemt Achmea - de grootste verzekeraar van Nederland – in, tijdens de strijd tegen eenzaamheid onder jongeren?

Een bejaarde verpleeghuisbewoner achter een raam. Het stereotypische beeld dat vaak in ons opkomt als het gaat over eenzaamheid. Deskundigen slaan echter alarm, juist veel jongeren voelen zich steeds vaker eenzaam: bijna 10% van de jongeren voelt zich chronisch eenzaam! Het eenzaamheidsvirus is zelfs dodelijk; het is even schadelijk als obesitas en vergelijkbaar met de schadelijkheid van roken.

Tijdens de corona-crisis is eenzaamheid onder jongeren nog meer zichtbaar geworden. Misschien voel jij je wel eens eenzaam of kende je iemand in je omgeving die zich eenzaam voelt? Als Achmea willen we helpen in de strijd tegen eenzaamheid onder jongeren en onze dienstverlening hierop aanpassen. Wij dagen jou uit ons te helpen en te ervaren hoe je vanuit een organisatie, die midden in de samenleving staat, ook daadwerkelijk impact kan maken. Ben jij geïnteresseerd in IT, ben jij een creatieve denker en wil jij samen met ons brainstormen over hoe een IT oplossing eenzaamheid onder jongeren kan verminderen? Dan zien we je graag terug tijdens onze workshop!

TL;DR: GEPWNAGE ELAN from Monday February 15th till Sunday February 21st. Subscribe to receive an ELAN Survival Package incl. limited edition ELAN shirt and a GEPWNAGE beer glass! If you do want to join the ELAN, but don't want an ELAN Survival Package, you don't have to subscribe to this activity

It's that time of the year where we from GEPWNAGE would organize our yearly LAN party. However, Corona is still preventing everyone to game, eat pizza, and enjoy a drink together in one big room. That's why we'll be organizing an Extremely Large Area Network (ELAN) party during the Carnival holiday. We kick off the ELAN party on Monday February 15th and we'll game together till Sunday February 21st. To make sure everyone will get the authentic LAN experience, the first 70 subscriptions will receive a special ELAN survival package filled with drinks, food, a limited edition ELAN shirt and a GEPWNAGE beer glass (vaasje). You can subscribe via the GEWIS website from Monday February 1st 13:00h, where you can also indicate your preferred shirt size and whether you prefer energy drink or soda. We ask only a small contribution of 2 Euros, and in case we have more then 70 subscriptions within the fist 24 hours, we'll randomly draw recipients of the ELAN survival packages. The subscription list closes on Monday February 8th 23:00h. Once it closes you can still join the ELAN, but you cannot receive a ELAN Survival Package anymore.During the ELAN we'll have dedicated servers for several multi-player games, as well as daily Twitch live streams. Our ELAN discord server will be open to everyone to use to chat and use for multi-player games. Long story short, it's going to be an amazing and unforgettable week.Twitch: twitch.tv/GEPWNAGE

Hi there Carnaval enthusiasts! Yes, you have probably heard the stories: "Carnaval 2021 is canceled due to Mr. Corona", well yeah…no. obviously it's not! Carnaval has already been there for ages as well as the 'stropdaskroegentocht' (pubcrawl). That one may be cancelled, so we are organizing a take away StropTaskroegentocht! Subscribe for this activity as soon as possible, but at the latest Sunday the 6th of February, and order your bag for our great activity! During the online pubcrawl, we'll have an online platform where you can move and meet with a group from online pub to pub. You can at any moment move for a second to another group to talk with them and enjoy the activity with the people you would like to celebrate Carnaval with! In your bag will be some happy alcoholic or non-alcoholic surprises, depending on your preference. Each pub will have its own drink and it will be a surprise everywhere :D! This leaves you to choose which type of 'stroptas' (bag) you would like!: Alcoholic Beverages (€11,11 per bag):

Blue StropTas: Is a bit of the stronger package of the two when it comes to the craft beers (4 pieces). In total 8 beverages are included and a snack. Orange StropTas: Is a bit of the lighter package of the two when it comes to the craft beers (4 pieces). In total 8 beverages are included and a snack.

Non-Alcoholic Beverages (€5,11 per bag):- Red StropTas: contains 4 alcohol free (craft) beers and a snack.

Of course, there is the possibility of taking the "MegaTas" (MegaBag), which contains both the Blue StropTas ánd the Orange StropTas! (costs for this therefore €22,22). After Subscription, we will let you know where and when you can take away your StropTas. Note that this will be in Eindhoven! The take-away moments will be on Friday (12 Feb) and Saturday (13 Feb). A small but hopefully unnecessary note: If you have subscribed, you agree to the payment of the order. Please do not unsubscribe after subscription :).

Dear members,

During a week (or a long weekend) of celebrating carnival having a snack once in a while is almost obligatory. You can of course enjoy a ‘kapsalon’ or a ‘broodje bal’, but one of the most (in)famous snacks is a ‘worstenbroodje’ (not to be confused with a ‘frikandelbroodje’). Literally translated to ‘sausage bread’, it’s exactly what you expect and now you have the change to make these yourselves!

On Saturday the 13th of February, GELIMBO hosts an online baking workshop with expert cooks to guide you through the process. All you have to do are the groceries, for which we will provide a shopping list. There will also be a vega(n) alternative available. The activity starts at 14:11, so you’ll have plenty of time to recover from an optional hangover. We hope to see all of you on the 13th!

The workshop will be held in the GEWIScord.

Ingredient list for 8 worstenbroodjes with meatIngredient list for 12 vegan worstenbroodjesIf you are on a vegetarian diet, you can also decide to make the dough from the first recipe (contains milk) and make the filling with the ingredients from the second recipe. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact us via gelimbo@gewis.nl.

Greetings,GELIMBO

Dear GEWIS members,

When GEBINGO at Thursday night is finished, we will all go to bed at some point after a night full of (responsible) festivities. And what can we expect from the morning after on Friday? Exactly, a well put together hangover breakfast! This usual hangover breakfast cannot be forgotten of course. So do your shopping, we will make a list, which can be found here (something different is also okay of course), and join GELIMBO starting 08:11 in the GEWIScord for an online hangover breakfast. For everyone who has to work; hopefully you have obtained enough energy for the day by then. For everyone who has a day off; keep hanging around! Then we will wake up easily and talk about the night before. We hope to see you at Friday morning the 12th of February in the GEWIScord!

With Southern hugs,GELIMBO

Dear members,

In times without lockdown and COVID, the 11th of February 2021 would have been the day where we kick off the carnival week with an amazing borrel. This year, there will be no carnival unfortunately. But do not worry, GELIMBO will not pass on the opportunity to celebrate something on the 11th of the month. We will not kick off the carnival week, but we will kick off our four days of fun activities. And what better way to do this than with an (online) borrel? To give you something more to do than just borrel from home, we will also include a BINGO (or actually we will be playing kien, like Limburgians do), where you can win fun prizes!

Once you subscribe for the activity, you will get an email with your kien-card and an optional shopping list with some things that our hosts will be consuming during the evening, so you can join them if you want! We also encourage you to make the experience more fun for yourself, for example by putting shots on a few numbers on your card ;) and by meeting with your friends in a seperate Discord call.

One last important thing:Even though we do not celebrate carnival, we will not let 2021 go by without dressing up. So put on your craziest carnival outfit! You will actually get an extra kien-card if you do this! :)

Southern hugs,GELIMBO

At the previous GMM (GMM178 at 07-12-2020), the board presented a proposal regarding a revision of the GEWIS Membership types. Revising and updating the membership types is one of the multi-annual strategic vision goals of GEWIS. We have gained a lot of feedback at this GMM, which will all be implemented soon.

The goal of this meeting is to have a critical look at the updated document and to make it as watertight as possible. During the meeting we will also discuss the following steps to take regarding implementing it. Because these changes will be rather impactful, it is important that everyone's voice will be heard. Every member of GEWIS is therefore invited to join this meeting to give their opinion on the proposal, so we can finalize it at the upcoming GMM.

Now that we are all sitting at home during the Christmas break, boredom is always around the corner. Luckily, the GEWIS Arcade is still running in all its glory! Therefore, the board announces the next GEWIS Arcade game for the entirety of the Christmas break: Minecraft!

We assume everyone already knows the game. If you don't, you have been living under a rock. But we are not the worst, so let us quickly explain the game. Minecraft is a sandbox video game in which your imagination is the limit. Explore the world, build the most amazing things and interact with all the other players on the server! With more than 200,000,000 copies sold, it is the best-selling video game of all time.

We are running a "normal" survival server on the Hard difficulty. This means that the game is easily accessible for everyone (e.g. no mods) and everyone has the freedom to play the game in their own way! We also installed some datapacks to create that little bit of extra fun. We won't spoil what it is, so you will have to find out yourself.

To play on the GEWIS Arcade Minecraft server, you need to have bought the game (aka cracked versions will not work, shame on you!). To join the server, simply add arcade.gewis.nl to your server list and join the server! To join the server however, you have to be whitelisted. You can whitelist yourself by going to arcade.gewis.nl.

If you have any questions or suggestions about this game or for the upcoming weeks, feel free to contact Koen, Wouter or Roy from the board. We hope to see you all there!

“Brrrr! Het weer is niet om over naar huis te schrijven gedurende deze tijden van het jaar. Ik zou er niet aan moeten denken om buiten te moeten borrelen met dit weer. Geen enkele hoeveelheid glühwein kan mij genoeg verwarmen om deze koelte te overwinnen!” Zijn dit nu de gedachten die u, zeer terecht wel te verstaan, ook hebt net als wij? Dan is er geweldig nieuws!

In deze tijd van koudte is natuurlijk het enige waar men naar verlangt het samenkomen rond een haardvuur met ballen in de boom. Helaas wordt dit ook verhinderd door de maatregelen die er in zijn gesteld om ons veilig te houden van de grote C. Gelukkig zijn dat niet de enige ballen die tevoorschijn komen om je warm te maken, want de ballen van I.V.V zijn weer druk bezig met de voorbereidingen van een nieuwe Keuken met I.V.V!

Dit maal zal het gaan om een ware kersteditie van het al eerder succesvol gebleken concept. Mocht u hier nog niet bekend mee zijn, het zit als volgt: u opent woensdag 16 december a.s. klokslag 5 uur de website https://www.twitch.tv/hetdispuut en hier zal Hèt Dispuut een heerlijke maaltijd maken in duidelijke en langzame stappen die thuis in uw eigen keuken live te volgen zijn. Deze editie zal er een speciaal kerstdiner gemaakt worden om uw vrienden en familie een week later positief te verrassen met onverwachtse kunsten die wij aan u zullen demonstreren. De precieze ingrediëntenlijst voor de lamsrack die gemaakt zal worden, inclusief bijgerechten komen uiterlijk komende maandag op de GEWIS-website te staan.

Mocht U nu zo warm geworden zijn door dit vooruitzicht en kunt u niet wachten tot komende woensdag, dan hebben we alvast een voorproefje voor u met de verscheidene hilariteiten die vorige stream voor zijn gekomen. Geniet! Maar geniet (online) met maten! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zneMX6t_Vfc

TOEVOEGING:Beste Kookenthousiasten,

Het lijkt wel zomer zo rond deze kerstdagen. Nee, eigenlijk niet echt, maar wat we wel gemeen hebben met Australië is dat de wereld nu op de kop staat. En het is ook gemoedelijk warm voor de tijd van het jaar, dus een witte kerst hoeven we ook niet te verwachten, tenzij u per abuis natuurlijk poedersuiker en/of meel hebt ingekocht voor de keukensessie, want die gaan niet gebruikt worden.Maar goed, ik ben aan het afdwalen, de wereld staat op zijn kop. Onze grote vriend in “Het Torentje”, de heer Rutte, heeft eerder deze avond een toespraak gehouden waarin hij tegen het land vertelde dat we onder andere geen verre reizen meer mogen maken en waarin er ook verteld is dat de capaciteit voor het aantal mensen dat een ieder op bezoek mag ontvangen daalt van drie naar twee, met daarbij ook nog het dringende advies om überhaupt niet op bezoek te gaan.Goedzakken dat wij als Dispuut “In Vino Veritas” zijn betekent dit dus dat wij de raden van onze trouwe rechtse vrind ook niet aan onze laars zullen lappen. Ze zeggen wel vaker dat aan al het goede een einde komt, dus aan mij nu de fijne mededeling dat Keuken met I.V.V deel III: Kersteditie een stuk later zal eindigen dan verwacht. Helaas zal het daarmee ook een stuk later beginnen dat verwacht, gezien Hèt Dispuut geen mogelijkheid ziet de activiteit op zó’n manier uit te voeren zodat de maatregelen, we gaan immers op een culinaire reis, in acht worden genomen en de kwaliteit van het spektakelstuk dat het natuurlijk is gewaarborgd zal blijven. Een vervolgdatum voor deze knalactiviteit zal ik u echter tegoed moeten houden, gezien dit ook volledig afhankelijk is van maatregelen in de nabije toekomst.Maar onthoudt goed: na de regen komt ook weer zonneschijn. En om die zonneschijn even plaatselijk in uw gezicht te laten stralen kunt u altijd een van de volgende links aanklikken. Immers geldt hier ook over de vorige twee keren: gelukkig hebben we de beelden nog!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CuSnOuGZLlMhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zneMX6t_Vfc

Veel kijkplezier en tabee!Namens Dispuut “In Vino Veritas”,Bouke BosmaPraeses der Dispuut “In Vino Veritas”

P.S.: Vergeet niet te drinken!

TL;DR: subscribe and receive a Christmas-card-making-kit for free! Christmas card making session December 15.

The days are getting colder, the nights longer… ‘T is the season of Christmas lights, hot cocoa, and “gezelligheid”. But how to spread the gezelligheid when you can’t really get together?

Without the big social gatherings of for example cosy Christmas markets, it may be difficult for some people to get into the Christmas mood. Luckily, one way of spreading the Christmas spirit remains, no matter how big the social distance: sending Christmas cards!

Therefore, we decided to compose special Christmas kits to help you spread some Christmas spirit. Each kit will contain two blank cards (1 red and 1 green), 2 matching envelopes, and all the glittery red-green-gold stuff you might need to create two beautiful Christmas cards. (NB: it does not contain glue. If you don’t have any glue and are too poor to buy some, we suggest using a sticky alternative like peanut butter, jam, or any left-over (GEWIS) stickers.)

You can receive one of these kits for free. There are two ways to receive a kit:

Delivery (free inside Eindhoven, for addresses outside Eindhoven you’ll have to pay for the shipping).

Picking them up somewhere in Eindhoven.

After the subscription deadline, we will send you an email with the details regarding the delivery or pick-up.If you choose delivery, a kit will be delivered to your home before December 15. On December 15th, we will get together in the GEWIS Discord to add some gezelligheid to the creative process.

See you then!FESTIVITEIT

Dear members,

Every year on the second Friday of December the whole world turns purple. Do you know why? It's Spirit day, also known as purple Friday. This day is annual LGBTQ+ awareness day. To this day people from the LQBTQ+ community still have to deal with bullying and violence and suicide is way more common in this community.To let everyone know that this is not okay and that we support the LGBTQ+ community we celebrate purple Friday.

This year on the 11th of December, Défi will make sure the GEWIS room is decorated accordingly. If you are at the TU/e already, you may want to drop by GEWIS during the break and get a little snack. We are handing out a little snack to every member wearing purple (if the room capacity allows it!).

Furthermore we will have a small online competition, in which we ask everyone to share their Purple Friday celebration with Défi. We will post about this on our Instagram and we will announce the winners there as well. You can send a picture of your Purple Friday celebration to defi@gewis.nl or tag @dispuutdefi on Instagram.

Please join Défi in dressing purple to show your support for the LGTBQ+ community!

We wish you a very purple Friday!

Love,

Défi

Experience now a brand-new concept of online escape rooms: The Hunting Hour! Something very valuable is stolen from you. Together with your team you will try to catch the thief and retrieve what is yours. Evidence of the theft has been collected, divided and sent to the home address of each team member. During the evening of December 8, 9 or 10 your team will have an online crisis meeting where teamwork is more important than ever! Inspect the evidence, find clues and hunt the thief. You have one hour. Good luck. The Hunting Hour is a unique, creative and thrilling experience by GELIMBO and DSW. You will receive a package at your home address that you will need for solving different mysteries throughout the process of finding the thief that stole one of your most precious possessions. Each team must consist of 4 to 6 members. We encourage you to try filling your team to exactly 6 people for the ultimate experience. Each team must be enrolled once (so do not enroll per person). Upon closing of this subscription list, we will raffle among the enrolled teams. 20 teams can participate in this activity. When your team is selected to be one of the teams that can participate in The Hunting Hour, GELIMBO will reach out to the main responsible of the team (the person who enrolled the team) to ask the following from each team member: - A Dutch postal address (for sending the package of evidence) - A picture of the team member (passport photograph dimensions: ~148 pixels (width) x ~184 pixels (height)). The picture is optional, but highly recommended. There are three evenings (December 8, 9 and 10) when this activity takes place. Each team will obtain a slot on one of these dates. We kindly ask you upon enrollment the availability of your whole team on each of these dates. Starting times on each evening can range from 18:00 to 20:45. When you are selected, we will inform you which slot your team has obtained to start The Hunting Hour. Can't wait? Click here to reveal some of the evidence we have found on the crime scene.

We have arrived in the final month of the calender year: December. The days are short, the weather is cold and unfortunatly due you-know-what most people spend a lot of time at home.

Like Wouter just said: "easy to get into, hard to master". You can download the game for free from Steam.

You can join the server by visiting arcade.gewis.nl or by joining the server directly on the same server address. We also have set up some voice channel on the GEWIScord, so you communication will not be a problem during the game.

Hey everyone!

As most of you may know, GEWIS has a lot of new involved first year students. Understandably so, it's quite hard to get to know people face to face these days. FYS hopes to give GEWIS the opportunity to get to know our new first year students and vice versa.

As borrels have not been able to take place in the last few weeks, we're all looking for social interaction, online if need be! Come say hi if you have time! We start at 19:00 and end whenever the last person leaves.

The hangout will take place online on the 27th of November in the GEWIScord, channels for the activity can be found in the Activities category. All participants will be emailed a link to join the GEWIScord, alternatively you can just ask a board member to add you. What and if you drink is of course entirely up to you!

Subscribing to this activity if you want to be present is optional if you're already a GEWIScord member. Just drop by when it suits you.

We hope to see you there!

Has this partial lockdown made you feel like you're a queen stuck in a castle? Worry no more, because on the 24th of November the AC will start a three-week-long Duo Chess tournament! You will be playing hand and brain chess, so find yourself a chess mate with who you can check mate. The rules in a nutshell: The “brain” calls out a piece (let’s say a pawn) and the “hand” has to decide which pawn to move and where. Of course we will cater to the ROOKies as well as the chess kings, since you have to fill in how much experience you have as a duo (fill in beginner if you do not know much more than the rules or do not play often). You will have to schedule most of the matches yourself, but we will lend a helping hand with planning. Will you deliver checkmate, or is it (k)night (k)night for you? Only one way to find out! If you want to beat your friends, subscribing is the winning strategy! If you have any questions, suggestions, or need to get something off your chesst, you can always contACt us at ac@gewis.nl. Hugs, the AC

Thales is one of the technologically leading companies in the area of (naval) radar systems. Modern radar systems must be able to detect a variety of objects in different circumstances. This development leads to complex technological and mathematical challenges. An example is the design of transmit and receive beams for the radar antenna array, which is called beam forming. In this talk we will explore the basic mathematical principles behind beam forming including its relation to the Fourier transform.

Once again GEWPNAGE is gearing up to get you acquainted with one of our favorite games: Magic the Gathering: Arena! Normally, we would be hosting the event in real life and provide all newcomers with real decks that they get to take home, but that's not in the cards this time. Instead, we'll use the on-line version which has all the same cards, but digital! All you need to do to join is download and install the game beforehand. You can play the tutorial to unlock decks before or during the start of our event. At around 19:00, we will start a tournament for all attendees. During the entire event, you can hang out with us on Discord, where you can chat with your opponents and ask experienced players about tactics and rules. Subscribe and join the discord using the links above, and don't forget to show up! See you there! Ktnxbai, GEPWNAGE

Dit jaar organiseert GEHACK wederom de EAPC. Door corona zal het er dit jaar net iets anders uit zien dan normaal en zal de EAPC nu plaatsvinden vanuit je eigen kamer. Meedoen is dus nog makkelijker dan ooit dus schrijf je snel in in teams van 3 om de felbegeerde EAPC wisseltrofee te bemachtigen.(Mocht je nog geen team hebben zullen wij proberen een team voor je te vinden dus heb je nog geen team wees niet getreurd).

Bij de EAPC zullen vele verschillende programmeer vragen worden gesteld, ook vele die met alle kennis van Programming goed op te lossen zijn dus laat ervaring geen reden zijn om niet aan dit mooie evenement mee te doen.

Normaal bij de EAPC worden de snacks rijkelijk verzorgd alleen aangezien het evenement dit jaar niet op de campus plaats zal vinden wordt dit lastig. We zijn nu aan het kijken naar een mogelijkheid om thuis toch snacks te verzorgen. Mocht dit kunnen hebben wij een address nodig, vandaar het laatste veld bij de inschrijf lijst om mogelijk toch nog snacks bij u thuis te kunnen verzorgen.

(Optioneel: Wil je je nou inschrijven als niet GEWIS lid stuur dan even een mail met je address gegevens naar gehack@gewis.nl mocht je thuis snacks/goodies willen ontvangen)

Voor vragen of oefenvragen voor de EAPC mail naar gehack@gewis.nl

Sioux Technologies partners with a world-leading industrial microscope company to monitor their products at customer sites in order to unveil the full potential. Raw data from the instruments are analyzed and transformed into meaningful information. This project, aptly called Data to information (short: D2i), aims mainly at service engineers. Their daily responsibilities range from yielding better utilization to scheduling maintenance just in time, all made easier by this project. In this talk, you will get real insights in some project’s challenges, how features are realized and much more. The talk is given by two project members: Niek Ederveen and Nick Kuijpers.

Niek is software architect on the D2i project for almost two years now. In this role, he is responsible for the bigger picture and strategic technical decisions. He is specialized in client server solutions and was responsible for some automotive projects in the past, like car tracking. Nick is a software designer working on the D2i project for almost 3 years now. He is combining a technical role with a more process-oriented role, since he also fulfills the Scrum Master role within the team.

Beste leden der GEWIS,

Zoals u waarschijnlijk heeft gemerkt, worden de dagen kouder en korter, waardoor de sfeer gezelliger wordt dan in lange tijd het geval was. Helaas is het niet meer toegestaan om een paar vrienden bij u thuis uit te nodigen vanwege de maatregelen die de overheid ons heeft opgelegd. Denk daar van wat je wilt, maar de tweede golf van COVID-19 verhindert ons meet om met elkaar in contact te komen dan ons geliefd is.Gelukkig is er een oplossing voor al deze perikelen. Dispuut "In Vino Veritas" zal niet alleen een avondactiviteit organiseren vol met de decadentie en gezelligheid die je van ons gewend bent, maar zal je ook de kans geven om je smaakpapillen te trainen door golven van verschillende hoogwaardige, professioneel geselecteerde wijnen over je tong te laten rollen. Daarnaast zal Vinoloog Mgr. Sanders aanwezig zijn op het evenement dat op 19 oktober plaatsvindt om u een masterclass in de kunst van het proeven te geven.Inschrijven kan hier. Wees er snel bij, want er zijn maar een beperkt aantal plekken beschikbaar. Let op dat de inschrijvingslijst één week voor de activiteit (maandag 12 oktober) wordt gesloten om een passende hoeveelheid kwaliteitswijn voor iedereen te garanderen.

We hopen jullie allen te zien!

Come join us on the 9th of October in the Markthal from 16:30 - 20:00, if the subscriptions exceed the capacity there will be a draw.

You do not have to be very experienced in the field of committee work or study trips at all to join SSG, as it is also a great opportunity to learn a lot as an advisory entity. Together with the other SSG members you will be keeping track of progress updates provided by the travel committee during meetings that take place once every two weeks.

So come join us during our information lunch October the 7th between 12.40 and 13.15 on discord (https://discord.gg/CmKgs78). This is a great opportunity to get some valuable experience in the field of organisation and overseeing, especially during these challenging times. We hope to see you there!

IOTA, the better version of Blockchain and the Ledger of Everything!

In 2009, Bitcoin released its blockchain infrastructure and promised to become a global decentralized system that could be used by anyone without the need for intermediaries. Now, more than 10 years later it has become apparent (high fee’s, slow transaction times and poor scalability) that blockchains mathematical model isn’t suited to become a worldwide payment system.

However, the next generation of Distributed Ledger Technology is now here and it’s called IOTA! This protocol is designed from the ground up to power the Machine economy through feeless micro-transactions and data integrity utilizing a mathematical principle, called Directed-Acyclic-Graph (DAG). It is this concept that allows IOTA to outperform blockchain in every way and established a network dubbed the ‘‘Tangle’’ It is expected that this technology will become the very backbone for the Internet of Things and power the internet of tomorrow! Curious how this works? Come and listen to the presentation!

Note that for this lunch lecture that are only 30 spots available. We kindly ask you to be subscribed Thursday before the lecture. If there are more than 30 people interested, there will be a draw.

Trading options as a market maker

In this interactive lecture we will take look at the role of market makers and the value of options in the financial landscape.

Market makers provide liquidity to financial markets by simultaneously showing prices at which they are willing to buy and sell options, i.e. a two-sided market. While trading options, market makers must manage the risk of these trades as well as their overall portfolio. Trading and risk management go hand in hand in this way.

After a broad introduction into financial markets and various instruments, we will discuss the special nature of options and the ways in which their price can be calculated. In this valuation of options, the so-called “implied volatility” plays a crucial role. For market makers this implied volatility and its behavior is the most interesting and challenging factor. We will discuss why!

Note that for this lunch lecture that are only 30 spots available. We kindly ask you to be subscribed Thursday before the lecture. If there are more than 30 people interested, there will be a draw. You will be informed about your participation, the lecture and all corona measures Friday before the lecture takes place.

Dear 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 in 2 separate days. This year "Weet ik veel" is recorded in Studio 24 in Mediapark Hilversum (Sumatralaan, 1217 GP). We have chosen for the afternoon recordings, which means we have to be present from 14:00 until 17.45. The two available dates are Saturday the 26th of September and Wednesday the 30th of September. When subscribing please indicate which of the two days 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’s more subscriptions than the capacity allows for there will be a draw. Please subscribe before the 8th of September!

As you all know, instead of the usual MomenTUm party, this year we will celebrate MomenTUm through a livestream. In this livestream, we focus on congratulating and entertaining all graduates through different items, including an interactive quiz, surprise elements, giveaways, and an afterparty with performances of student bands and DJ’s. Next to the graduates, we also want all other TU/e students to be able to celebrate MomenTUm this year, as they do every year. Our goal is to encourage as many graduates and students to watch the livestream and have a celebratory day (that afternoon is also education free).

Therefore, the board organizes a MomenTUm viewing party in the GEWIS room! There is currently a capacity of 15 people. However, on high demand, we will book some extra rooms, so we can all watch the stream together!

Op 19 september zal het prachtige dispuut B.O.O.M. haar 15e jaarring mogen ontvangen. Wij hadden voor jullie een hele week vol met toffe activiteiten gepland om deze bijzondere mijlpaal samen met ons te vieren. Helaas biedt een 3e lustrum geen magische bescherming tegen COVID-19 en hebben we moeten besluiten om de feestelijke viering dit jaar wat in te perken en volgend jaar (hopelijk) onze sweet-16 te vieren.

Om jullie toch nog even uit die studentenkamertjes te krijgen en wat kostelijk vermaak te bieden, zal op maandag 14 september de 2e editie van de populaire buitenbioscoop plaatsvinden. We verklappen nu nog niet welke 2 films er gedraaid zullen worden, maar de films zullen ongetwijfeld een grappige en niet-zo-serieuze sfeer met zich dragen. Natuurlijk is een bioscoop geen bioscoop zonder (gratis) popcorn! En om de avond compleet te maken zal onze geliefde barcommissie ons gedurende de activiteit van (alcoholische) drankjes!

Er zijn 16 zitplekken op banken beschikbaar, maar als je comfortabel wilt zitten tijdens de films raden wij je aan om je eigen (camping)stoeltje mee te nemen. Komen die campingstoeltjes toch nog van pas dit jaar! (De maximale capaciteit van de activiteit is 40.)

De exacte locatie van de activiteit volgt nog!

Dear upcoming GEWISsers, Usually, the intro committee organizes an awesome FLUP weekend in the second weekend of the new study year. This is a follow up weekend to the introduction week, where you can get to know GEWIS and most of their active members, by doing al sorts of activities with them. Sadly, due to the corona-virus, we cannot do that this year. However we are able to organize a FLUP day! On this day, we hope to introduce to you the new GEWIS board, the fraternities, and the old FYC’s by letting you do small activities organized by them. In small groups, you will be guided to various locations in Eindhoven by a buddy from GEWIS. At the end of the day, you can join us for a barbeque on campus, where you can get to know the people from the other groups as well. This activity is meant for the new students and is planned on the 12th of September. This day only costs 3 euros. It would be convenient if you have a bike in Eindhoven. The barbeque will be at the Flux field. Hugs, Intro20 Due to new rules from the university, we have closed registrations for the FLUP activity. Would you still like to participate? Mail to intro20@gewis.nl and we will look into what is possible.

Grab your closest friend and bicycle and reserve the 12th of September in your agendas.The FLUP-day will cost you three euros per person since we will end the day with a delicious barbeque. Only one of you will have to subscribe, as long as they mention who their partner will be. If there are too many cycling buddies, couples who also were intro-parents will have priority. We hope you are just as excited as we are!

Hugs,Intro20

The teams will consist of 8-9 team members, however you can only sign up with atmost 2 other people so that our new members can try and get acquainted with the more“experienced” members within GEWIS.

If this doesn’t sound like an exciting chance to meet new people then we don’t know what is!So do subscribe to the first activity that has ever been planned by the FYS committee.

Students 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. PDEng degree programs exist already since 1986 and the TU/e Department of Mathematics and Computer Science has been offering such degree programs ever since. In this session Harold Weffers will present (i.) the added value of a PhD or PDEng degree program compared to an M.Sc. degree, (ii.) the differences between PhD and PDEng, (iii.) a brief overview of some of the PDEng programs offered by TU/e and (iv.) some more details about the PDEng Software Technology program and some of the projects performed by its trainees.

Note that for this lunch lecture that are only 30 spots available. We kindly ask you to be subscribed Thursday before the lecture. If there are more than 30 people interested, there will be a draw. You will be informed about your participation, the lecture and all corona measures Friday before the lecture takes place.

Dear GEWIS'ers,

Finally, we are once again allowed to meet in larger groups outside under the sun. When you imagine being outside with your friends, naturally, the first thing that comes to mind to do is to throw some balls. Fortunately enough for you and your friends we provide this opportunity.

The legendary activity "Spel met Ballen" will make a comeback this year! Fraternity "In Vino Veritas" will once again provide you with the opportunity to challenge your friends in a game of wit and skill. Naturally there will not be any shortage on wine and delicacies.

Together with a partner you are able to subscribe in order to participate in the official "Spel met Ballen" tournament and battle other teams for a chance to win the challenge cup. Beware though, the subscription list closes the day before the activity.

We hope to see you on the field,Fraternity "In Vino Veritas"

tldr: ATHENA workout summer challenge and buy a cool GEWIS bidon for only 3 euros! Subscription list opens Wednesday 24th June 12.00h.

Hi all! Corona probably did change your life! You are working from home, so you did not have that morning bike ride to the university. Or maybe it became better as you did not have to sit in the overfull train. Do you also miss that little nice walk from building to building at the campus with your study mates? We as ATHENA members found a new daily routine with which we tried to stay productive and healthly. Part of this is our weekly bootcamps (approximately 4 per week), from which you most likely already saw a sneak peak via our Instagram or at a Snapchat you received.

During the summer break we want to continue with this, but we are going to include you all in our #fitgirl and #fitboy process. We challenge you to participate in the three week ATHENA work-out, in which we will provide you with 3 work-outs per week of approximately 20 minutes. As not everyone is at the same level, we will make sure that for every level exercises will be provided. As we wanted to keep the threshold of the work-outs as low as possible, we made sure that the only equipment you need is a towel to lie on! If you want to challenge yourself extra, you can always use weights during the exercise, but that is for the die-hards! ;)

When you are working out and sweating you need to stay hydrated. So we as ATHENA will launch a GEWIS bidon. You can buy this GEWIS bidon for only 3 euros. There are only 50 bidons available so be fast! The subscription list opens at Wednesday the 24th of June at 12.00h. When there are more than 50 subscriptions in the first 3 hours, there will be drawn. If you do not want to join the amazing workout challenge, it is possible to subscribe for the bidon, but participants will get priority. The pick-up point for the bidon will be at North (Pisanostraat) or Center (Graaf Adolfstraat).

The videos will become available at our Instagram and ATHENA website!

Hugs ATHENA.

You can view the design here!  UPDATE: Subscription for the bidons is not possible anymore!

TL;DR: subscribe as intro parent at rex.gewis.nl before 12th of july. Make sure you are available 15th, 17th -21st of August.

Dear GEWISers!

As you all know, quartile four has almost ended, which means for us that the planning for the introduction week is in full gear. It will be a very different kind of Intro compared to previous years, but we still need enthusiastic Intro-parents. As an Intro-parent, it will be your task to show the new students what the student life at the TU/e looks like. If you would like to become one, together with a partner of your choice, you will be appointed around ten new students as your “kiddo’s”. You will accompany them during the whole week, which will consist of three online and two offline days. You will be responsible for your group of intro-kids on both the online as well as on the offline days. It will be your goal to create a nice group bond so that every one of them will enjoy the week as much as possible!

If you are interested in becoming a parent, please pay attention to the following few points: you have to be available the 15th of August for the “introbegeleiders dag”, where the CIC will give you further information on your schedule and duties as a parent. Attendance is completely mandatory. This means, if you are not present the 15th, you cannot become an intro parent. Furthermore, you obviously have to be available during the introduction week itself, which is from the 17th to the 21st of August. On Monday, Tuesday and Thursday you have to be present online for the online program, while on Wednesday and Friday you will need to be present in person on the campus for the offline activities. Finally, you will be in charge of your group and together with your partner you should ensure that your group members participate in all the activities.

If you are as enthusiastic as we are and want to subscribe as a parent immediately, you should go and find a partner and go subscribe at https://rex.gewis.nl! The subscription closes at the 12th of July 23:59h. If there are too many applications, there will be a draw. You will hear the result of that draw at least before the end of July, hopefully sooner. We hope to see you all during the introduction week, whether it is online or in person!

Lots of love, Intro20 committee

Woehoee, the BAC is back with an outside mavo borrel on 2 July! Due to the corona-virus, there are some rules you should follow. First of all, during the drink, you will sit on a yellow picnic bench with the 4 of you and you will not go away from this unless you have to pee. The BAC will bring you your delicious beers (or sodas). You can register per person or with a group of maximum 4. If there are more than 22 people on the registration list before the deadline, which is 1 July at 1 p.m., there will be a draw. A group then has as much chance of being drawn as a single participant. Note: Your group only counts once in the draw, you can only participate in one group or registration.
