Welcome to English Party!
The purpose of our group is to encourage fluency in English while having FUN and making friends!
Our main activities rotate between arts and crafts, game nights, and music (YES - singalongs and karaoke!).
* Do you know some English, but freeze up in embarrassment when talking with native English speakers?
* Are you bored with learning English in a traditional classroom setting?
* Do you crave the challenge of communicating in English in real-life?
* Are you a fan of learning by doing?
* Are you an English-speaking traveler or expat looking to connect with locals?
* Do you enjoy Arts and Crafts? Boardgames? Singing? All of the above?
If you answered yes to one or more of the above questions, chances are you'd have a blast with us in our group!
We host both in-person (in Santiago, Chile) and online experiences. We would love to have you join us!

Introduction to SQL Server 2025: Whatâs New, What Matters, and Some AI Too
SQL Server 2025 delivers a major round of improvements across performance, security, manageability, and hybrid connectivity, and this session gives you a practical, noânonsense tour of what matters most. Weâll cover enhancements to the core engine, query processing, storage, and availability that benefit DBAs and developers regardless of where SQL Server runs. Youâll see how SQL Server 2025 aligns with Azure SQLâs roadmap while still supporting strong onâpremises and VMâbased deployments. Weâll highlight new management, monitoring, and troubleshooting capabilities designed to simplify operations and reduce firefighting. AIâpowered features exist in this release, but the focus here is on the foundational improvements you can use immediately. Whether youâre modernizing, maintaining, or planning your next upgrade cycle, this session will help you understand whatâs new and how to prepare your environment and your team.
Intro to GitHub Copilot: Your AI Pair Programmer - Chris Steele
**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you.
The building address is 4450 Bridge Park
The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400
**Abstract**
GitHub Copilot is rapidly changing how developers write, understand, and maintain code. Powered by generative AI and deeply integrated into modern development environments, Copilot acts as an intelligent coding assistant, helping developers move faster while maintaining quality and focus.
In this session, weâll explore what GitHub Copilot is, how it works, and where it fits into a real-world developer workflow. Weâll break down what Copilot can (and cannot) do, where it can be used, and how licensing differs for individuals and organizations. Most importantly, this talk goes beyond theory with a live, hands-on demo showcasing Copilot inside the IDE and on GitHub, demonstrating how it can assist with code generation, refactoring, learning new APIs, and accelerating day-to-day development tasks.
Designed for developers, technical leads, and engineering managers, this session provides a practical introduction to AI-assisted development, highlights best practices for getting value from Copilot, and closes with guidance on how to continue learning and evolving alongside this rapidly advancing tool.
Attendees will leave with a clear understanding of how GitHub Copilot can enhance productivity, improve developer experience, and fit into modern software teams today, not someday.

The Matzah Ball by Jean Meltzer
I don't usually pick romance but I really wanted to do a Hanukkah book. It's a bit on the longer side but hopefully a quick read. The library only has 5 audiobooks so please try to remember to "release it" when you're done.

Book summary:
Rachel Rubenstein-Goldblatt is a nice Jewish girl with a shameful secret: she loves Christmas. For a decade sheâs hidden her career as a Christmas romance novelist from her family. Her talent has made her a bestseller even as her chronic illness has always kept the kind of love she writes about out of reach.
But when her diversity-conscious publisher insists she write a Hanukkah romance, her well of inspiration suddenly runs dry. Hanukkahâs not magical. Itâs not merry. Itâs not *Christmas*. Desperate not to lose her contract, Rachelâs determined to find her muse at the Matzah Ball, a Jewish music celebration on the last night of Hanukkah, even if it means working with her summer camp archenemyâJacob Greenberg.
Though Rachel and Jacob havenât seen each other since they were kids, their grudge still glows brighter than a menorah. But as they spend more time together, Rachel finds herself drawn to Hanukkahâand Jacobâin a way she never expected. Maybe this holiday of lights will be the spark she needed to set her heart ablaze.
The War Room: Intro to War Gaming at The Arcane Foundry ($15 Regiment)
**âïž Introduction to Wargaming & Painting Miniature Soldiers at The Arcane Foundry âïž**
Join me in **The War Room at [The Arcane Foundry](https://share.google/S5i6DYJnJteHWeKtd)** for a laid-back evening of hobby talk and tabletop fun! For just **$15**, youâll get a **3D-printed regiment of 20 high quality resin models** of your choice to paint â a **$40 value!** Bring your creativity, relax, and letâs make something awesome together.
**Choose one from Below:**
* 20 Orc Warriors
* 20 Empire Soldiers
* 20 Dwarf Warriors
* 20 Elf Spearmen
Step into a world where strategy meets artistry â and where every painted figure tells a story of battle, honor, and imagination. Join **Daclaud** at **The Arcane Foundry** for an evening that introduces newcomers and enthusiasts alike to the timeless craft of **tabletop wargaming** and **miniature painting**.
My own journey began with a fascination for fantasy â knights in armor, grim and hardened warriors, and monstrous creatures locked in epic battle. That passion led me to **Dungeons & Dragons**, where I painted my first **Basic Heroes set** and felt the spark that comes from bringing a character to life in miniature form. Not long after, I discovered **Warhammer Fantasy** and **Warhammer 40,000**, and I was hooked. The vision of vast armies clashing across the table â each unit meticulously painted, each story unfolding through dice and imagination â became my creative obsession.
During this event, weâll explore the **origins of wargaming**, from its early military simulations to the richly detailed worlds of modern tabletop battle systems. Youâll learn how to **build and customize your own armies**, paint your first figures, and experience the joy of turning strategy and storytelling into a hands-on art form.
Whether youâre drawn by the lore, the hobby, or the thrill of commanding miniature legions, this introduction will open the gates to a world that has captivated hobbyists for generations.
**đš RSVP today and join us at The Arcane Foundry â where every brushstroke and battle tells a story.**
