We welcome you to the Bitcoin Bay Office for a workshop on "Blockspace Value Theory" (BVT). What is Blockspace Value Theory? Blockspace Value Theory (BVT) is a term originating from the Bitcoin Ordinals space, though it applies beyond ordinal inscriptions. BVT states that "Tokenized Blockspace" (inscriptions, runes, brc20 tokens and more) has a floor value proportional to the amount of blockspace used, and that the value roughly tracks price of transaction fees. BVT originates from Bitcoin, but can apply to other blockchains too. Come attend the workshop to find out more!

The General Burying Ground received Royal Assent in 1826 and land that came to be known as Potters Field was acquired and started operation soon afterwards. Over time, additional cemetery lands were added and in 1873, a new cemetery available to all citizens was established. The new cemetery was situated on the farm land of the Cawthra family near Yonge Street. This walk is for all fitness levels. Please dress for the weather.

Thanks to GitHub Copilot and other AI tools your pipelines can now think ahead, automate the boring stuff, and even nudge you when you’re about to break production (again). This talk dives into agentic AI—the kind of AI that doesn’t just wait for orders but actually helps out, like a proactive teammate who never sleeps. Agentic DevOps is a paradigm that combines human developer expertise with AI-powered tools and frameworks to enhance software delivery. While Microsoft popularized the concept, it’s not limited to their ecosystem. You can apply Agentic DevOps with: \- Coding agents like : Cursor\, Windsurf\, Claude Code\, Codex etc \- Local AI coding agents: Continue\, Cline\, Roo Open-source models: Llama 4, Mistral, DeepSeek, Qwen \- On\-prem deployment tools: vLLM\, SGLang\, TGI \- Agent Frameworks: LangGraph\, AutoGen\, CrewAI\, DSPy etc These are just few examples but choose your preferred tooling and infrastructure, whether on-prem or in the cloud with AWS, GCP, Azure, IBM Cloud, Oracle Cloud, or Alibaba Cloud. Agentic DevOps is about augmenting human capabilities with AI, not about vendor lock-in. Agentic DevOps is for everyone. We’ll show how Copilot helps you write, review, and ship code faster, while Azure keeps the infrastructure humming along. Think: smarter CI/CD, fewer “oops” moments, and more time to focus on the fun parts of building software. Expect real-world examples, best practices, and a few cautionary tales. You’ll leave with practical ideas for making AI a trusted part of your DevOps toolkit—without replacing the humans who still need coffee breaks. Whether you’re a DevOps engineer, team lead, or architect, this session will help you see how AI can make your life easier, your pipelines smarter, and your deployments a lot less stressful. Speaker: **Max Yermakhanov, Microsoft MVP** **Topic 2: Introduction to Azure SRE Agent** As organizations increasingly adopt cloud-native architectures, maintaining reliability and operational excellence becomes a critical challenge. Enter Azure SRE Agent—a cutting-edge solution designed to bring Site Reliability Engineering principles into the AI era. This session introduces the Azure SRE Agent, an intelligent, autonomous system that leverages AI-driven insights and automation to monitor, diagnose, and remediate reliability issues across distributed environments. Speaker: **Ehsan Eskandari, Microsoft MVP** **Topic 3: Browner Automation Agent** TBD Speaker**: Kaan Turgut**

Let’s do some coding together at a cafe! No more working alone in the weekend. Here, we write code together. And I mean together together. Not occupying-the-same-space-but-separate together. Here’s how it works: Jennifer brings her mobile app project, tells everyone that it is like Pinterest for recipes and she’d like to work on the nav bar. Paul and Chloe think Jennifer's project is fascinating, and they join the group. They gather around Jennifer’s laptop and work on the nav bar for 2 hours. Jennifer is the one typing out the code while Paul and Chloe research, brainstorm, and offer suggestions. If you’re feeling stuck on your own project or need a motivation boost, bring it to mob programming! Want to learn by watching how others code and solve problems? Join someone else’s project at this event! Oh and we love your half-done projects that you are a bit embarrassed to share. Absolutely bring those to the event! **Discord**: We use Discord to share screen & code snippets during the event. Also feel free to share your projects here before the event! https://discord.gg/Da9fZFxPfs **Event policy**: * We have 0 tolerance for harassment. * We don’t allow the projects that are not meant to be shared in public such as school assignments, interview tasks, or trade secrets. * The goal is to write code. We discourage you from pitching business ideas here, doing code reviews, or spending the whole event on planning what to do. * Please buy a drink, and tip the barista well.

**Want to help bring your city’s community together?** We’re looking for local hosts to organize small group lunches, evening drinks, mixers, movie get-togethers and curated experiences. **No experience necessary,** just a friendly attitude, some local knowledge, and a willingness to meet a few new people. After each event, we’ll send a short feedback form so we can improve and support you. The host will also be able to provide feedback so we can learn what worked and what didn't. **[Click here](https://form.questionscout.com/6926c9ab87a828a5c11a79fc)** to apply and get started: if you’re selected, we’ll reach out for a quick screening call.

## **🗺️ Event Location** The event is at the **OneEleven Co-Working Space** located at 325 Front St W, 4th Floor, Toronto, ON M5V 3S9 ## **Imagine data pipelines that manage themselves.** The global BUILD conference is coming to Toronto, bringing the latest in data engineering directly to you. This isn't a lecture—it's a hands-on, heads-down working session where you will master the next generation of the Data Cloud. Join us for an evening where you won't just watch a demo; you'll roll up your sleeves and build a complete **multi-stage data pipeline** from scratch. We will use **Snowflake's Dynamic Tables**—the declarative approach to continuous data transformation—to create a system that automatically handles dependency mapping, scheduling, and data refreshes. Whether you're a data engineer, analytics engineer, or SQL enthusiast, this is your fast track to eliminating orchestration code and deploying robust, low-latency data products. ## **⚡ What We're Building** * **A Self-Managing Analytics Pipeline** 🔄 We are moving beyond traditional batch jobs and complex external schedulers. You will use **Dynamic Tables** to build an end-to-end workflow—from raw data to an analytics-ready fact table—while Snowflake automatically orchestrates every refresh. You'll walk away with the code and the know-how to deploy production-ready pipelines with unprecedented speed and simplicity. * **The Complete Pipeline Stack** 🛠️ You will get hands-on experience building a real-world data architecture: * **Raw Data Ingestion:** We'll set up your source tables and understand how Dynamic Tables detect upstream changes. * **Multi-Stage Transformations:** We'll create intermediate staging layers with declarative SQL—no DAGs, no schedulers. * **Analytics-Ready Fact Tables:** We'll build the final consumption layer and configure refresh policies for low-latency delivery. * **Monitoring & Observability:** We'll explore how to track pipeline health, refresh history, and data freshness. ## **📅 Agenda** We are running the **"Building Self-Managing Data Pipelines"** track. We will have expert TAs from Snowflake and the community on-site to help you debug and build. * **5:00 PM:** Doors Open, Registration, Food & Networking * **6:00 PM:** **Welcome & Core Concepts** – Why Dynamic Tables Change Everything * **6:30 PM:** **Lab Part 1:** Environment Setup, Raw Data Sources & Your First Dynamic Table (Modules 1-3) * **7:30 PM:** Short Break * **7:45 PM:** **Lab Part 2:** Multi-Stage Pipelines & Building Analytics-Ready Fact Tables (Modules 4-5) * **8:30 PM:** Networking & Social * **9:00 PM:** Event Ends ## **👥 Who Should Attend?** We designed this session to be accessible yet deep. * **For Beginners:** If you are new to data engineering or Snowflake, don't worry. We provide a step-by-step manual and have experts in the room to guide you through every line of SQL. You *will* leave with a working pipeline. * **For Experts:** If you are already a pro with dbt, Airflow, or traditional ETL, the lab provides the perfect sandbox. You can race through the basics and spend your time experimenting with refresh policies, incremental patterns, and pushing the limits of declarative pipelines. ## **💻 Prerequisites** This is a working session! To participate and earn your badge, please bring: * **Your Laptop:** Fully charged (stable Wi-Fi provided). * **That's it!** We will provide a Snowflake trial account and all necessary data during the session. ## **🎟️ Secure Your Spot** Spaces are strictly limited to ensure everyone gets 1:1 support during the lab. Don't miss your chance to eliminate orchestration headaches and connect with the Toronto data community. ### **When** February 17, 2026 *Local Time: February 17, 2026, 5:00 PM – 9:00 PM (EST)* ### **Where** **OneEleven Co-Working** 325 Front St W, 4th Floor, Toronto, ON M5V 3S9
