https://chat.whatsapp.com/FDycCG1Qqe4ICrrW55cMK7?mode=hqrt1 Attendance confirmation Participation is confirmed in two steps: by registering for the event on Meetup and confirming again via WhatsApp on the day of the session. This coworking gathering is meant to create a relaxed space where people can work, exchange ideas, and connect with others in a friendly atmosphere. We do not aim for large or crowded events, but for a comfortable environment. If there are not enough confirmations during the day of the event, the session may be rescheduled. We invite you to share a weekly afternoon of work in Recoleta, in a comfortable and quiet coworking space, from 3:00 to 6:00 pm. This coworking meetup is designed for remote professionals, independent workers, digital nomads, researchers, writers, freelancers, and creatives who usually work online from their laptops. Just bring your laptop or work materials. The proposal is to work together, with each person focused on their own tasks, while sharing a calm and respectful environment. This is primarily a coworking space, with openness to social interaction, shared breaks, or simply getting to know new people, making new friends, or professional contacts. The venue has a café, spacious coworking areas, and lounge areas. You may also join the WhatsApp group, where we will share some social activities starting in January, for those interested in activities outside the coworking space and schedule. Location: Work Café Recoleta – Av. Santa Fe 1634, CABA Please confirm your attendance via Meetup before each meeting. Practical note: Some large tables have built-in power outlets with limited space. We recommend bringing USB cables or adapters. There are also wall outlets available. ------------------------- Te invitamos a compartir una tarde semanal de trabajo en Recoleta, en un espacio de coworking cómodo y tranquilo, de 15:00 a 18:00 hs, con tu computadora o materiales de trabajo. Este meetup de coworking está pensado para profesionales remotos, trabajadores independientes, nómadas digitales, investigadores, escritores, freelancers y creativos que suelen trabajar online desde sus laptops. La propuesta es trabajar en grupo, con cada persona enfocada en sus propias tareas, compartiendo un entorno calmo y respetuoso. Este es principalmente un espacio de coworking, con apertura a la interacción social, descansos compartidos, o simplemente conocer nuevas personas, hacer nuevos amigos o contactos profesionales.

En este taller introductorio vamos a acercarnos a la **Teoría de Respuesta al Ítem (TRI)** de una manera práctica y accesible. La TRI sirve para entender mejor **cómo funcionan los ítems (preguntas) de un test y cómo miden una habilidad o rasgo**. Nos permite ver, por ejemplo, si un ítem es más fácil o más difícil, si discrimina bien entre personas con distinto nivel, y si funciona de manera consistente. También es una herramienta muy útil para seleccionar los mejores ítems, acortar tests sin perder calidad y diseñar escalas más precisas. A lo largo del encuentro, vas a: \- Construir una comprensión conceptual de sus ideas principales\. \- Aplicar este método usando R\. \- Aprender a interpretar sus resultados para entender mejor cómo funcionan los ítems y qué aportan a la medición\. Este taller es **introductorio** y está dirigido a personas con un **conocimiento básico de escalas psicométricas**. **No requiere conocimiento previo de Teoría de Respuesta al Ítem.** **Requerimientos:** * R: 4.5.1 (mínimo) * RStudio: 2025.05.1 (mínimo, descargar [aquí](https://posit.co/downloads/)) * Instalar los paquetes **tidyverse, mirt y ltm**

No necesitas conocimientos previos, solo curiosidad y ganas de compartir. Cada semana abordamos un tema distinto, practicando la comunicación y construyendo una comunidad de personas reflexivas. 📓 **¿CÓMO FUNCIONA?** * Compartimos el tema de la semana en nuestro grupo de WhatsApp con algunas preguntas guía. * Nos reunimos a las 14:00, comenzando con una charla informal antes de la discusión. * Conversamos en grupos pequeños para que todos puedan participar. * Al final, cada grupo comparte sus conclusiones y cerramos la sesión alrededor de las 16:00. 🧧 **¿CUÁNTO CUESTA?** ¡Es completamente gratis! Si nos reunimos en un café, solo pedimos que apoyes el lugar comprando una bebida. Algunas sedes alquilan un espacio y pueden solicitar donaciones voluntarias, pero no es obligatorio. 💛 **LO QUE DICEN** 🗣 “Siento que Filosofía Práctica te ayuda a construir tu propio sistema de creencias a través de diversas perspectivas, sin imponer lo que está bien o mal.” – Ekam 🗣 “Desde la primera vez que asistí (el tema era autoridad), supe que este era mi lugar. Me encanta cómo nos desafía a cuestionar diferentes puntos de vista, fomentando la apertura y la flexibilidad mental.” – Daniel 🗣 “Siempre quise tener este tipo de conversaciones, pero nunca encontré el espacio adecuado… hasta ahora. La gente, los temas, los debates abiertos… todo hace que sienta que pertenezco aquí.” – Sofía 🤓 **PREGUNTAS FRECUENTES** 📌 **¿Debo estudiar antes de asistir?** – No es necesario.

**Total Eclipse of the Chart: School Redistricting Dashboards** In this presentation, we will explore the utilization of maps, sets, and SQL within a Tableau dashboard to help provide “what-if” analyses generated through the use of a mapped dashboard, providing different scenarios and the potential implications of these. While in this use case we are focused on a large school district, the concepts of utilizing existing data to explore the future impacts of modifying different geographic boundaries can be useful to many industries, balancing the mix of maps with visual analytics. **About Our Speaker** Robert Kramer is the Data Systems and State Reporting Coordinator at South Western City Schools in Grove City.

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!

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.

NFT's are here to stay folks! This is a group for like minded people interested in understanding, leveraging, using, creating for, profiting from, trading too i suppose, NFT's.. everything around them, complexity, fear and exploits, best practices and more. **PLUS** This group will talk AI ART tools, techniques, artists, video, audio, prototypes and more in the AI assisted production space- ART specifically, but we can get into any aspect of some of the cooler things happening in AI in general.

Join us for a practical, beginner-friendly guide to choosing the right large language model. We’ll compare major models like ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Llama, talk about when to use hosted APIs versus local models, and break down the tradeoffs around cost, speed, quality, privacy, context windows, coding ability, and reliability. You’ll leave with a clearer mental model for picking an LLM based on your actual use case instead of hype, benchmarks, or brand names. No deep AI background required. LOGISTICS AND PARKING: The talk starts at 7:00 PM. The first half hour is reserved for everyone to get set up and mingle. Free pizza and drinks! The cheapest parking option is to find street parking, which will only cost you a few bucks. Otherwise, park in the nearby veteran's museum lot for $8. It's highly recommended you avoid the nearby $15 garage parking.
