đż Merienda, ConexiĂłn y Algo rico en el horno â 2ÂȘ ediciĂłn đ
***Un encuentro para bajar un cambio,***
***desconectar del ritmo de la semana***
***y compartir un momento distinto con otras personas.***
*En Sabores & ConexiĂłn, la excusa siempre es la mesa.*
**La propuesta es simple:**
**merendar, compartir**
**y conectar desde un lugar mĂĄs real.**
**Arrancamos preparando algo rico:**
cada persona hace su propia **carrot cake đ„đ°**(y sĂ, es mucho mĂĄs sencilla de lo que parece).
No hace falta experiencia.
La Ășnica experiencia es la del encuentro que construiremos entre todos.
**Mientras mezclamos ingredientes,**
**también se va poniendo sobre la mesa**
**con qué llega cada uno,**
qué quiere soltar
y qué quiere traer.
Después, mientras el horno hace su magia
y la casa se llena de ese perfume dulceâŠ
**nos sentamos a disfrutar:**
**mate đ§, cafĂ© â o tĂ©,**
**postres ricos para compartir**
y conversaciones que fluyen solas.
**También hay dinåmicas de conexión**
que giran en torno a los sabores, los recuerdos,
los perfumes, las texturas y las historias que van surgiendo.
**Cada persona se lleva la dulzura de su propio budĂn y la del encuentro.**
Como siempre, **sucede en mi casa**
y el grupo es reducido para cuidar la intimidad.

**đż Snacks, connection & something sweet in the oven â 2nd edition đ**
***A gathering to slow down,***
***step out of the weekly rush,***
***and share a different kind of moment with others.***
*In Sabores & ConexiĂłn, the excuse is always the table.*
**The idea is simple:**
**share a snack, connect,**
**and spend time together in a more real way.**
We start by **preparing something delicious:**
each person makes their own **carrot cake đ„đ°**
(and yes, itâs much easier than it seems).
*No experience needed.*
*The only âexperienceâ is the one weâll create together.*
**As we mix the ingredients,**
**we also bring to the table**
**how weâre arriving,**
what we want to let go of,
and what we want to carry with us.
Then, while the cake is in the oven
and the house fills with that sweet, homemade aromaâŠ
**we sit down and enjoy:**
**mate đ§, coffee â or tea,**
**sweet treats to share,**
and conversations that flow naturally.
**There are also connection-based dynamics**
around flavors, memories, scents, textures, and the stories that begin to unfold.
Each person takes home the sweetness of their own cake...and the one of the meeting up too.
As always, **it takes place in my home,**
and the group is kept small to preserve an intimate atmosphere.
**đ„ This time: 5 spots available**
**đ Colegiales**
**đ« Price: $22,500**

CBusData: The Fellowship of the Star Schema: Transforming OLTP Data for Power BI
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.
Columbus Code & Coffee 85 @ Improving
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!
Humanist Program
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
