War. Inflation. Hacks - you need hardcore protection for your Bitcoin! The SeedSigner is a revolutionary way to protect your Bitcoin. This user-friendly hardware wallet is easy to use and still very safe because it is completely offline, so hackers can't steal it. It is a great tool because it’s an air-gapped, open source hardware wallet that generates and stores the seed phrase of your wallet offline. In a way, the SeedSigner lets you store your Bitcoin without using a computer and that is why it’s more safe than any other tool that runs with a regular computer or mobile phone. If you want to protect your future with Bitcoin, this is critical! Most people store their Bitcoin on exchanges or software wallets, which are constant targets for hackers and scams. If you understand Bitcoin (or want to learn more about it now) you are in it for the long run and not just for short gainZ. Over time, the probability of a security breach approaches 100%, meaning if you don't control your private keys with a device like a SeedSigner, you will almost certainly lose your Bitcoin eventually. You might not lose it today or tomorrow but who knows what is going to happen in 10 years or in 100 years when you want to pass on your Bitcoin. Join us if you want to learn about hardcore protection for everyone. \*no condom needed, the SeedSigner is safe Facebook: [https://www.facebook.com/events/773449915623897](https://www.facebook.com/events/773449915623897) IG: [https://www.instagram.com/p/DWoCG_BjKSW](https://www.instagram.com/p/DWoCG_BjKSW) X: [https://x.com/cryptohubmalta/status/2039646887381233897](https://x.com/cryptohubmalta/status/2039646887381233897)

The Fellowship of the Star Schema: Transforming OLTP Data for Power BI One does not simply build reports on OLTP data. Join us on an epic journey from the depths of raw, normalized tables to the shining halls of a well-modeled star schema fit for Power BI greatness. We will demystify the differences between OLTP and OLAP, walk through star schema vs snowflake (and why Power BI has a clear favorite), and show you the compression differences between normalized and columnar storage that will make you never look at an OLTP model the same way again. We will cover the different types of dimensions, when to use them, and how to handle Slowly Changing Dimensions without losing your mind. You will leave knowing exactly how to identify a bad model, how to convert OLTP data into a clean star schema, and how to forge relationships that rule them all. Whether you are a data wizard, a curious hobbit, or somewhere in between, your models will never be the same.

Sleep in on Sundays. When you've had your fill of pajama-time, roll out and have some tasty brunch with your fellow Humanists!

The Humanist Monthly Program is our longest running event and still a community favorite. In the old days it used to be called "Going to HCCO" and we still like to think of it as our flagship event. We will be hearing from Becca Powell, Director of Advocacy and Outreach at Unchained At Last, an organization whose mission is dedication to ending forced and child marriage in the United States through direct services and systems change. Unchained At Last's mission clearly meshes and addresses several of our Humanist Ten Commitments. Becca will educate us about an issue many of us may not be familiar with--but should be. Food and drinks will be provided at the event. Feel free to show up a little bit early to hang out and talk. Going forward our meetings will be hybrid. You can meet us in-person or attend online Join Zoom Meeting [https://us02web.zoom.us/j/87836564953?pwd=4Mi57ElZkDIFlb1fnlNwOJ0NiOK4tP.1](https://us02web.zoom.us/j/87836564953?pwd=4Mi57ElZkDIFlb1fnlNwOJ0NiOK4tP.1) Meeting ID: 878 3656 4953 Passcode: 760812 One tap mobile +19292056099,,87836564953#,,,,\*760812# US (New York) +13017158592,,87836564953#,,,,\*760812# US (Washington DC) The formal presentation will start at noon
