Dear Microsoft Swiss PSUG, We have planned another exciting event. **Place & Language:** Place: Isolutions AG, The Circle 38, 8058 Zürich (Hybrid with Teams) Language: EN **Session 1: Automated deployment of Azure SQL VM with PowerShell** Description: If you need to deploy (almost fully) automated an Azure SQL VM on a frequent basis, this session may be for you. You can use PowerShell, a language that a lot SQL Server DBAs know; and you can use your knowledge of this language for your advantage, so that you have an infrastructure as code solution to deploy your Azure SQL Server. I am going to show you how to do this, including restoring a SQL Server from a network attached file storage within your VM. Speaker: [MVP Kay Sauter](https://www.linkedin.com/in/kaysauter/ "https://www.linkedin.com/in/kaysauter/") **Session 2: Migrate from EWS to Microsoft Graph** Description: Exchange Web Services (EWS) is deprecated, and Microsoft Graph is the modern API for accessing Microsoft 365 data. In this session, we’ll explore how to transition your scripts and automation from EWS to Microsoft Graph using PowerShell. You’ll learn practical steps, authentication options, and best practices for migrating existing workflows. Whether you manage mailboxes, calendars, or other Exchange Online resources, this session will equip you with the tools and knowledge to make the switch smoothly.

**Softwaremodernisierung auf Knopfdruck** ist im Zeitalter von AI Agents der Traum vieler ITler. Ja, ein Agent kann heute schon eine Legacy Codebase über Nacht komplett neu strukturieren. Aber wer übernimmt ab dem nächsten Morgen die **Verantwortung** dafür? In diesem Vortrag zeigt Markus, wo **agentische Ansätze in der Modernisierung von Softwaresystemen** großen Nutzen stiften, aber auch, was ihnen für den nachhaltigen Erfolg fehlt: Techniken, welche AI Agents an die Leine nehmen. Dazu greifen wir auf bewährte Klassiker der **Legacy-Code-Modernisierung** zurück, welche **agentische Workflows** mehr verantwortbar machen wie etwa Seams zur Begrenzung des „Agent Blast Radius“, Golden Master Testing zum Absichern des aktuellen Verhaltens und Fitness Functions zum messbaren Nachweis von Qualitätsverbesserungen. Dadurch liefern AI Agents weiterhin ein hohes Tempo, doch sie bleiben dank unserer Leitplanken auf der Spur. Denn am Ende zählt nicht, wie viel sich im Code bewegt, sondern ob das Legacy System wirklich vorankommt. Markus Harrer ([https://markusharrer.de](https://markusharrer.de)) ist Software Evolutionist bei INNOQ und hilft, Softwarearchitekturen strategisch und wirtschaftlich sinnvoll weiterzuentwickeln. Sein derzeitiger Schwerpunkt liegt auf der verantwortungsvollen Modernisierung von Legacy-Systemen, wo er datengetriebene Software Analytics mit generativen AI-Tools kombiniert. Er ist akkreditierter Trainer bei socreatory für iSAQB Foundation Level und Advanced-Level-Modul IMPROVE. Er ist Autor der Bücher „Strategische Spielzüge" und „Qualitätstaktiken" sowie Mitautor von „Software Reviews". Zudem organisiert er das Software Architecture Meetup Nürnberg.

Dies ist ein informelles Treffen für Lernende, die ihre ersten Schritte in der Programmierung machen oder ihre Grundkenntnisse vertiefen möchten. *** This is an informal meetup, for learners that want to do their first steps in programming or want to consolidate their skills. We spend one hour and a half working on tutorials, exercises or projects. If you need help to get started, we will help you finding a good way for learning. You should be prepared to spend your time "doing things": just hanging around and listening might get boring, if all other people are learning on their side. There are experienced people are around and you can ask questions as soon as their arise or bring with you questions you have had during the week. During the last half an hour, we do a (simple) exercise together. We speak German, English, and a few other languages. Currently, how main programming languages are: * Python * Javascript * Java * Flutter * C++ * C * C# * PHP But you're free to learn any programming language during our Co-Learning! If you want to learn more about our Co-Learning, please have a look at our website (no frequent updates...): https://opentechschool-zurich.github.io/ If you're starting with Python, we can suggest: * Learning Python the hard way (https://learnpythonthehardway.org/python3/) (for Python 3). * The Solo Learn Python 3 Tutorial (https://www.sololearn.com/Course/Python/). * A big list of Python tutorials: https://docs.python-guide.org/intro/learning/ For Node.js: * Nodeschool: https://nodeschool.io/ For C++ * https://de.wikibooks.org/wiki/C%2B%2B-Programmierung * https://www.sololearn.com/Course/CPlusPlus/

**Kon-Tiki Comedy Tuesday!** Zurich's longest standing weekly Comedy Night : English Standup at Kon-Tiki Bar since 2018! **Tickets :** [https://shorturl.at/fgjmM](https://shorturl.at/fgjmM) Kon-Tiki Comedy has long become a staple of Tuesday Nights in Zurich! Veterans, regulars, amateurs & newbies from all around the world show up to make people laugh. This Comedy Open Mic is regularly Hosted by Ahmet Bilge. Kon-Tiki Comedy is the place for English Standup in central Zurich. Come join & laugh with us! **Early Show starts at 19:30 pm // Late Show starts at 21:30 pm** **Frequently Asked Questions:** \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- **Q: Is the show in English?** A: YES. Kon-Tiki Comedy is always in English. **Q: What's the difference of a Comedy Open Mic from a regular Comedy Show?** A: Anybody who wants can go on stage at a Comedy Open Mic. A bunch of Comedians will be there, but they will be trying out jokes, because this is how Comedians find out if something is funny or not, so you get to be there at the birthplace of jokes. Often Comedy Open Mics are more casual & but also funny as well! **Q: Can I perform Comedy also?** A: Yes of course! Just contact theamericanstandupshow@gmail.com if you're interested in performing. Or directly go to the event page on facebook & write "SPOT" inside the event discussion. You'll be confirmed later & will get 5minutes to start off with. Anybody can sign up! **Q: What about these seats?** A : We have enough seats for everyone but the first come first served rule applies! Especially since Kon-Tiki Comedy is popular, often it is packed inside, so come early for good seats. What's early? Anything before 19:00 & you will have your seat of choice. **Q : What about the late show?** Depending on the turnout a late show is also available most of the time, please check the ticket page to see if there is a late show option. Basically if you can buy tickets to the late show, it's happening, if it's not an option for a ticket it's not! Both shows might be consolidated into one if there's not enough ticket sold for the late show. In this case you will recieve an e-mail telling you so. **Q : Can I refund my ticket?** There are no refunds allowed because it becomes too much work for a simple Comedy Open Mic, so only buy your ticket if you know you're for sure going to be able to make it. But if for some reason you can't make it, you are welcome to use your ticket for any future Kon-Tiki Comedy Shows. Just write an e-mail to exchange. **Q : Can I buy tickets at the door?** No please don't. Technically we can but it complicates everything, so just buy them online. Just to persuade you NOT to ask to buy at the door: Tickets at the door are 15.-CHF. Please buy online : ) **Q: Will it be funny?** A : You betcha. You can't do a regular show since 2018 & not be funny. **Any other questions:** Email: theamericanstandupshow@gmail.com with the title "Kon-Tiki Comedy" But if it's any of the questions covered by the FAQ above, I will still answer it, *but first I will insult you.* **Legal Disclaimer:** Comedians may film their sets as well as the audience during the comedy show. By buying a ticket you consent to being filmed in this public space. If you ever have a problem with any clip published online you are very welcome to contact us & ask to have it removed, we are happy to accomodate you. Thank you for your understanding.

**Wie können Eltern, pädagogische Fachpersonen und Laien unangepasste Gefühlsdynamiken bei Kindern, Jugendlichen und Schülern/Auszubildende erkennen, erklären und korrigieren?** Für Eltern, Grosseltern, Lehrperson, Sozpäd, Fabe, Erzieher, Interessierte Ablauf: Kennenlernen: 9.00 4 Module: 9.15- 10.45, 11.15- 12.45, Mittagspause mit Essen 14.30 – 16.00., 16.30 – 18.00 Fast alle Kinder, Schüler und Jugendliche unterliegen maladaptiven, unangepassten Gefühlsdynamiken die ein gutes Abstimmen aufeinander erschweren oder unmöglich machen. Meist sind sie unbewusst und doch einengend für die Lebenspraxis. Ein Heranargumentieren oder sogar gewaltfreies Eingehen führt manchmal nicht weit genug, um ein kooperatives Miteinander herzustellen. Wir besprechen Ihre konkreten Beispiele von Schwierigkeiten mit einzelnen Kindern oder Jugendlichen in der Familie, in der Einzelfallhilfe, in Klassen oder Teams, um aufgrund vorhandener Informationen zu erfassen, was die Einzelnen beschäftigt oder wie die Gruppen-mitglieder aufeinander wirken. Daraus können wir zuerst erahnen und dann mehr und mehr sicher schliessen, wie die innere und meist unbewusste Eigen-Logik im seelischen Haushalt aussieht. An diesem Seminar soll klar werden, wie wir methodisch maladaptive Gefühlsdynamiken erfassen, welche Fragen zu stellen sind, wie man aus den vorhandenen Fakten erste Hypothesen aufstellen kann, welche theoretischen Überlegungen dabei wichtig sind und welche vorläufige Heran-gehensweise man daraus ableiten kann. Mit diesem systematischen Vorgehen und mit einem freundschaftlichen Gefühl für die Kinder, Jugendlichen und Lernenden kann man gezielt handlungsfähig werden. Interessant ist dabei für jede Lehrperson, Sozpäd, Fabe, Erzieher Teamleiter und Eltern, welche eigenen Gefühlsirrtümer einen daran hindern, hilfreich, aktiv und angemessen auftretende Schwierigkeiten immer besser nachvollziehen zu können. Ich freue mich auf einen lehrreichen, gefühlsverbundenen gemeinsamen Tag.

Want **more info** than our Summary above? Then please read below: . . . . . **WHY?** we ❤️ **uniting people** and building **community** while having **fun!** We truly believe that **fun meaningful offline connections** to new & existing friends makes us truly happy and healthy! Our community meets **every 2 Fridays** in a **homey,** caring and **welcoming** "come as you are" environment ! . **WHAT is this event?** We are not a "party or drinks" meetup, nor we follow a "forced" process and agenda. Instead, we are a **Connection Community** inspired by Greek village cafes and Swiss Stammtisch — a welcoming environment where neighbours gathered as equals to share stories and build lasting friendships. We meet in a "**fixed-rhythm**" every 2 Fridays in a **homey** & **lovingly-hosted space** so you can connect with new and familiar faces. We provide **several optional activities** to help you **connect** with others—so you're free to **explore what resonates** with you! Together these activities create a unique **Connection** **Event.** . **HOW? Today's activities** are: * **new comer area** (never was easier to spark a conversation, with ice-breakers, optional for first time attendees) * **fun social games** (like "cards against humanity" and more - read game names below) * **mindful games** (no small talk, connect deeper, from [The School of Life](https://www.theschooloflife.com/shop/?_product_type=games-card-sets) \- read game names below\) * \*\* 20:00 - 20:30 Speed-friending\*\* (glass room on ground floor) guaranteed process to meet spark new fun discussions and meet new people - with moderator) * \*\* 20:30 - 21:00\*\* **Team Versus Team Playful games** (glass room on ground floor) to stop being so serious, stop adulthood and be silly ! * \*\* 22:00 - 00:00\*\* **Dance Party** (glass room on ground floor) lets dance the week away with reggaeton & hits * beautiful **homey** industrial location in downtown ZH * **German-speaking** area (falls du nur Deutsch sprechen möchtest) * \*\* chill-zones\*\* in private quiet rooms (if you want to talk or play games in quietness) * or simply **hang-out** and **meet new & old friends** **without** a process ❤️ . . . **TIPS on how to connect:** * **Look out for a good smile/vibe** in a person/group of 2-3 people and say "Hi my name is xxx, can I join?". * **Try something different** (person, game, table, activity) often until you find **fun** **quality connection.** We have a lot of activities * **Ask** **Support:** we understand going out to meet friends can be a stretch. We make this easy with a fun and safe event. Also you can ask for help from our clearly communicated (see photos of this event) "**People Connectors**" who can help you discreetly to connect with others * **Invest time**(not quickly just come by) as friendships are an investment * **Come back**: big turnaround, people come randomly at each event, so you never know who you ll meet . . **.** **Some final words:** * **Bravo** **to you** for the courage to go out to meet new people! We know **everyone is unique** \- thats why we got a big new\-comer area\, 4 co\-hosts welcoming and connecting you\, and many activities for you to **choose** from to find what **suits you**! * **Weather?** Event takes place rain or shine, with indoors rooms and outdoors area that is ultra rain-protected * **Coming late?** no problem, we got many people until closing at 00:00 so come whenever! * **Too many attendees?** no problem, we got the space! Also as per the "what" above: you define what makes the event meaningful for you! Furthermore, the co-organisers have one goal: to say hi and introduce you to the event and people (if you want to please ask)! Finally remember: you dont have to talk to everyone, focus in a few people! Less is more! If you dont know where to start look for a good smile or an activity more matching to you. From there keep on trying people and activities.. * **Why so many options above for connection?** We always have: a first-timer area, Fun social games, Mindful games, ice-breaker questions or simply just talk freely to anyone. Often we add: Speed-friending and a Music jam. We believe **you are unique** and each of us prefers different ways of connection. Also we want to provide an opportunity for everyone to try something new * **Easy and Safe:** We have the whole location reserved for us so its safe to open up and meet new friends (unlike bars in Zürich where people find it strange if strangers talk to them). Christos and volunteers will also help with connection. Read more info below. * **Christos** (see [PHOTO](https://photos.app.goo.gl/pdtVaVGCyDEJ28uE8)) and our co-organisers will be wearing name budges and will aim to **welcome** **everyone.** * more info via our **[LINKS](http://linktr.ee/connectionspace)** * Yes YOU are **good** & **courageous** for looking for new fun connections! * Everyone is in same situation and you ll be surprised how **friendly people** are ❤️ * Come **early** though **later** also ok as many people there **until 00:00** * **It works**! We heard of many new friendships, living together and even getting a new job * **Mindful Connection Games:** from [The School of Life](https://www.theschooloflife.com/shop/?_product_type=games-card-sets) available: Confessions Game, The Friendship Game, Connection Game, The Loser Game, Games for grown-ups and three sets of "100 questions" (Conversation Toolkit & Careers & Relationships) * **Fun Social Games:** bring your own **board/card games** or choose from: Cards against humanity, Exploding Kittens, Codenames, Debatable, Sotally Tober, Taboo, Mafia, Uno, Monopoly and more. . . . . ``` Disclaimer & participation terms (Connection Space): By registering for and/or attending this event (“Event”), you agree: Registration required.

Window functions have nothing to do with the Windows operating system but provide a “window” 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.

***Okay, call me crazy but you have got to try their chip n dip!*** Club 85 is a true hidden gem in German Village! Seriously, old school, good comfort food and drink. We will try to gather in spaces near the windows. While we'll share Chip n Dip, you'll want to order a sandwich, too. **Where the Chip Began (1817)** Potato chips can be traced back to an English chef, William Kitchiner, who includes ‘crisps’ in his bestselling cookbook, “The Cook’s Oracle.” **Chip and Dip Popularity** The popularity of chip and dip skyrockets at the end of World War II with new entertainment fads and the introduction of Lipton’s new advertising campaign for their famous French Onion Dip. (Club 185 doesn't openly admit it, but I'm pretty sure that's their dip recipe!) **[Club 185](http://club185.com/)**—a true neighborhood bar serving since 1954, when it was known as a local 'speak-easy'. Located in German Village, Club 185 features a menu of quality casual comfort food and full bar. From politicians to lawyers, hardhats to hipsters—all find Club 185 the perfect place to tame their hunger and quench their thirst! **PARKING**: I know, brick street parallel parking can be a pain. Two other choices, metered parking along Livingston heading towards Children's Hospital or across the street in the large church lot (park in spaces farthest away from the church entrance doors, closer to the street). **PRE-EVENT**: **HAPPY HOUR (3-5pm)**: Italian drinks and bites at [Cento's happy hour](https://centogermanvillage.com/menus/), nearby.

**New Dojo Location!** **Draft Day Columbus** 1130 Dublin Road Columbus, OH 43215 We're going to try a new dojo location for a few weeks and see how it works Dojos are informal Python group study sessions where everyone interested in Python gathers to learn about Python, help others with Python, or just hang out. Everyone is welcome from Python beginners to experts. Bringing a laptop is encouraged (we'll have extension cords and power strips). If there's something you want to learn leave a comment on this invite so we can plan ahead. We're looking for topic suggestions and people interested in presenting at our monthly meetings. To this end we've set up a survey form at [https://docs.google.com/forms/d/15eBKF1nQQ2XS5gzD4rvhVRHMBEj7lJtHuA9wXupS3Uc](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/15eBKF1nQQ2XS5gzD4rvhVRHMBEj7lJtHuA9wXupS3Uc)
