Regla #1: No intentes darle sentido a la locura o te volverás loco. La Regla #2 es una metáfora: Debes aceptar que la persona de la que estabas enamorado está muerta y se ha ido para siempre. (Si aceptas la regla 2, dejarás de romper la regla #1) Este grupo de Meetup fue creado para apoyar a cualquier persona que esté pasando por el final de una relación romántica, una separación o un divorcio. A estas alturas, dependiendo de a quién hayas recurrido en busca de consuelo, probablemente hayas descubierto que la mayoría de amigos y familiares carecen de la empatía que necesitas—o peor aún, ofrecen sugerencias críticas sobre cómo “deberías” estar manejando tu situación. Este grupo es tu lugar seguro. Es un espacio para compartir, procesar y aprender—libre de vergüenza y lleno de apoyo real. Es un lugar para evitar más abuso y navegar el desamor con compasión. También estamos conectados a una enorme comunidad en línea de apoyo para el divorcio, a la cual presentamos a nuestros miembros en cada reunión. Hay muchísimos recursos gratuitos: sitios web, libros, videos y herramientas para ayudarte a sanar. Si tu corazón está roto por cualquier otra razón, también eres bienvenido aquí. Qué esperar: Apoyo real – darte cuenta de que no estás solo en esto Sanación del abuso narcisista Sanación de un corazón roto Buenos momentos con gente increíble Consejos de otros que han pasado por lo mismo Recursos – referencias a abogados, terapeutas, mudanceros, agentes inmobiliarios, investigadores privados—prácticamente cualquier cosa que puedas necesitar Amistad y conversación entre todas las edades No hay ningún costo para asistir a los eventos de Meetup. Puedes unirte en cualquier momento y quedarte todo el tiempo que necesites. No estamos afiliados a ninguna organización religiosa o política, y todas las creencias y orígenes son bienvenidos. Tampoco tienes que hablar—puedes simplemente escuchar hasta que estés listo. Algo que escuchamos a menudo es: “No estoy seguro de si estoy en el grupo correcto.” Si te estás haciendo esa pregunta… Estás en el grupo correcto. �� Gracias por unirte a nosotros. Estamos comprometidos a acompañarte durante esta etapa difícil. Por favor ten en cuenta: Este no es un grupo de terapia certificado. No soy consejero matrimonial con licencia, psicólogo, psiquiatra ni trabajador social—ni tampoco lo son los otros facilitadores. Sin embargo, podemos referirte a profesionales con licencia si sientes que es algo que necesitas.

Practical AI for Power BI Developers A year ago, “agentic AI” was mostly hype for Power BI teams. Today, it deserves your undivided attention. For Power BI pros, there is now a real opportunity to reduce repetitive development work, accelerate delivery, and help developers do more, but only when strong DataOps practices are in place to make AI workflows effective. This session is a no-nonsense introduction to effective AI patterns for Power BI and Fabric development. Along the way, we will make sense of the growing pile of terminology, including skills, plugins, hooks, and MCP. You will see examples of how modern AI tooling can help with development tasks across Power BI and Fabric, along with the prerequisites, guardrails, and DataOps principles needed to use it responsibly. Whether you're burned out on AI hype or already using Copilot CLI daily, this session will show you the foundations that are finally making AI-assisted development genuinely useful.

Session Abstract ### Data Cleansing using Data Bricks Machine Learning is highly dependent on adequate data. Not only does quantity matter, but more importantly quality. In this session we’ll cover how to build a custom automated process using Data Bricks. This will provide methods for cleaning data in a data lake using functions in Azure. \*Please note, that we will be using Microsoft Teams for the online portion of this meeting. You may want to join a few minutes early to ensure you do not have any issues. If you are attending in person, there are large TVs at the office, and you do not need to bring a laptop or use Teams.

Customer identity resolution becomes increasingly complex as organizations scale across multiple systems, regions, and data formats. Traditional rule-based approaches often fail to keep up with data variability, require constant manual tuning, and struggle with real-time processing needs. This session presents a practical approach to building a scalable identity resolution pipeline using AWS services and modern AI techniques. The architecture combines data ingestion through Amazon S3 and AWS Glue, transformation pipelines using Spark on EMR, and machine learning models deployed via SageMaker for entity matching and standardization. Graph-based relationship modeling is implemented using Amazon Neptune to improve resolution accuracy by incorporating household and shared attribute context. We will walk through how machine learning models can be used for name and address normalization, how intelligent blocking strategies improve matching efficiency, and how feedback loops can be introduced to continuously improve accuracy. The session also highlights how serverless components such as AWS Lambda can be used for orchestration and real-time processing. **SPEAKER BIO** Mosaic Syed is a Senior Data Engineering and Cloud Solutions Architect with over 20 years of experience designing and delivering scalable, secure, and high-performance data solutions across global enterprise environments. https://www.linkedin.com/in/mosaic-basha-syed-92300856 **CALL FOR SPEAKERS** Learn more: [https://www.awscolumbus.com/get-involved/](https://www.awscolumbus.com/get-involved/) **THANK YOU** *VEEAM* for hosting our meetup!

Columbus Code & Coffee is an inclusive, informal co-working session. People of all skill levels attend, and we love it that way. Many people (optionally) bring projects to work on, and many other people (optionally) socialize the entire time. It's entirely up to you! **What to Expect at the Intro Circle** \~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~ Near the beginning of the event (1:30 pm), we do a standup: * Organizer announcements, updates, and logistics Round 1 - (7 secs max): * Your name * What you're working on * What you can help others with Round 2: * Community events you wanna plug. If none, that's cool too. Round 3: * Job opportunities you're hiring for OR announce that you are looking for one. If none, that's cool. After the introduction circle, everything is self-organized! Feel free to work alone, pair up, attend one of our workshops/presentations, or mingle!
