North to South Boundary Stone Walk (Silver Spring -> King St, 25mi)
Are you familiar with DC's boundary stones? 36 of these were placed in 1791 by the order of George Washington to mark the border of the soon to be incorporated Washington DC. They are the oldest federally placed monuments in the US and serve as both a reminder of our city's history and a fun scavenger hunt to try and find them. Join us as we attempt to walk from the northern boundary stone, near Silver Spring, through the entirety of DC (and parts of Arlington/Alexandria) to the southern boundary stone (at the southern tip of old town).
We did this walk last year and it was really fun. To mix things up we are going to switch the route. My goal for this walk is to cross dc while following only the mainline rail tracks. This gives us a pretty good route of being on trails for a large part of the walk and a good verity of neighborhoods.
This is a very long walk. Last year i clocked 24 miles and i suspect this route is slightly longer. Please be prepared to walk for over 8 hours. To save on time we will be eating a picnic lunch on the mall (roughly half way point). Please bring with you a bag with water, lunch, snacks, anything else you need for an 8+ hour walk.
Starting Location: Silver Spring Metro Station
End Location: King Street Metro Station
Map: https://www.plotaroute.com/route/3206710?units=miles
Milage: 25

The AGI Transition: How AI Affects Work and Life
To help us estimate attendance and to see the venue address, please RSVP on Luma!: https://luma.com/af0yjzz6
*A free, public workshopâno technical background needed*
âArtificial intelligence is no longer just getting better at narrow tasksâitâs beginning to look *general*. Many researchers believe weâre entering the early stages of the **AGI transition**: a period where AI systems start to match or exceed human abilities across a wide range of domains.
âThis workshop explores what AGI actually means, how to think about it intuitively (without hype or jargon), and what this transition could mean for your job, your relationships, and your day-to-day lifeâmuch sooner than most people expect.
âTogether, weâll explore questions like:
â**What is AGI?**
âHow do experts define artificial general intelligence, and how is it different from todayâs AI tools?
â**Work & Jobs:**
âWhich kinds of jobs are already being automated or transformedâand which ones experts believe are most likely to remain resilient?
â**Human Connection:**
âHow is AI starting to replace or supplement roles once filled by coworkers, friends, tutors, therapists, and companions?
â**Robots & the Physical World:**
âWhat happens when advanced AI is paired with rapidly improving roboticsâand which parts of the economy could change next?
â**What youâll get:**
* âA clear, beginner-friendly explanation of AGI and why it matters
* âReal-world examples of how AI is already reshaping work and social life
* âLive demos that highlight both impressive capabilities and emerging risks
* âInteractive discussion and exercises to test your own intuitions about the future
âCome ready to grapple with one of the biggest transitions humanity may ever faceâa shift that could redefine not just how we work, but how we relate to each other, find meaning, and navigate a world increasingly shaped by intelligent machines.

CBusData - Discover the Power of Window Functions
Window functions have nothing to do with the Windows operating system but provide a âwindowâ to a result set when used in SQL queries. They are powerful, set-based methods to view data in unexpected ways. Window functions provide easy, set-based solutions to solve some common problems:
* Using running totals
* Performing operations in intervals
* Identifying data gaps and islands
* Performing aggregates without losing detail
Many people are confused by window functions and do not know how to use them properly. This session will explore window functions, how they work, and how to use them. Demonstrations with several examples will solidify how window functions can simplify queries and make them more powerful.
Data & Analytics Wednesday - Google Analytics Alternatives
**Google Analytics Alternatives**
Is it finally time to make the switch away from Google Analytics? Two-and-a-half years ago Jason Packer asked this question at Columbus Web Analytics Wednesday.
Since then: Googleâs Universal Analytics has been sunset, weâve changed our name to Columbus Data & Analytics Wednesday, and Jason has released two editions of his book âGoogle Analytics Alternativesâ.
Fresh off the release of the 2nd edition of his book, we thought it was time to re-open this conversation. While people love to complain about it, GAâs market share has remained relatively constant (at least in the United States). Why is that? You wonât find any complaints about GA4 in this talk, but rather an overview of whatâs currently available in the market and how to frame your decision-making process.
Weâll also be giving out some free copies of Jasonâs book! So even if youâve got a âGA4Lyfeâ tattoo (no judgement), thereâs free books to go with the free pizza and beer.
Thanks to our 2026 sponsors:

Quarterly Goals Reset for Product Professionals
One of the most valuable parts of this community is the opportunity to think out loud with other product professionals. This session is built for exactly that.
As we wrap up the quarter, itâs a great time to pause and reflect. Whatâs on track? What needs adjustment? Where could a small shift create bigger impact?
Join fellow product professionals for a focused, interactive conversation designed to help you recalibrate for the next quarter. Youâll have the opportunity to share where you are, hear how others are thinking through similar challenges, and gain fresh perspective you can bring back to your team and organization.
Weâll gather at 8:00AM, with discussion starting promptly at 8:15AM.
