Capacity of event is number of tables X 4. Having a waitlist does not mean event is full. It is for me to prioritize people as per the following clause: *Priority is given to regulars, past attendees, intermediate and above level players, players who have their private message function switched on and people whom I have met before. If I am unable to contact you, I cannot ask for your availability and skill level etc and you will be stuck in the waitlist forever and ever.* This is to ensure that the skill level of players are decent and to eliminate no shows. • Find us at the following tables in bishan sports hall.. 2,3,4,5,6 Ensure you are feeling well before taking part. Do not attend if you are not feeling well. *NO GATECRASHING! • Do bring your own bat.

In this work, it is common for coaches to carry more than they have space to reflect on. ​Coaching supervision provides a reflective space for coaches to slow down, notice what they are carrying, and make sense of how their work and the wider system are impacting them. ​This session introduces the essence of coaching supervision through guided reflection and peer conversation. Participants will experience how supervision supports clarity, choice, and sustainability in coaching practice. ​**Bio** Lyn Wong works at the intersection of coaching, facilitation, organisational development, and reflective practice, supporting people and systems navigating complexity and change. She is a leadership and team coach, facilitator, and coaching supervisor who accompanies leaders and coaches working in human systems where answers are rarely straightforward and dynamics often unfold beneath the surface. ​Grounded in Gestalt and systemic perspectives, Lyn brings over 25 years of experience across corporate, public, and non-profit sectors locally and internationally. She helps clients notice patterns in relationships and systems so that new awareness, choice, and possibilities can emerge. ​In coaching supervision, Lyn creates reflective spaces where coaches can slow down, make sense of what they are carrying, and strengthen their capacity to stay present and resourced in their work. She believes supervision is not about fixing the coach, but about sustaining the human being who holds space for others.

From inconsistent datasets to scenarios where structured data barely exists, this session dives into what it takes to build AI beyond ideal conditions.

⚠️ **REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED VIA [LUMA](https://luma.com/7adqd4e9)** ⚠️ **ABSTRACT** SHELLgym is the regular cybersecurity workout you have been looking for! Whether you're just starting out and need some exercises, studying for a cert (hint: OSCP), looking at CTF challenges, or developing something cybersecurity-related (maybe your own automated tools?), SHELLgym aims to help you progress in picking up practical cybersecurity knowledge and skills. Come and go as you please, work on your own stuff with like-minded individuals, or just have fun during the workout! **AGENDA** Getting and using shells. Finally, a topic in SHELLgym that covers shells! For this session, we'll talk about remote access, from exploits versus payloads, to simple persistency. Then, we'll do some triaging and threat hunting to detect such shells in our environment. The session will roughly follow this sequence: 1\. Remote access: bind/reverse shells 2\. A simple\, traditional killchain from exploit to payload to persistency 3\. Getting inspired by MITRE TTPs 4\. Threat hunting **⚠️ NOTE** Requirements: a computer, so that you can connect to the network, administer your shells, and enjoy a more interactive hands-on experience. **VIRTUAL SHELLgyms in APRIL** (by request) Hosted on Discord, do approach KK or the Div0 Crew for access ! **TRAINER** **KK "Jim" Tan — Founder, counterShell** As a mid-careerist convert to cybersecurity, **Jim** picked up his practical skills through getting OSCP certified and by participating in a variety of CTFs. In his career at CSIT, he performed a variety of red-teaming and vulnerability research roles and established the Cyber Training School at CSIT as the Lead Instructor. Besides the OSCP certification, Jim is also OSCE and OSEE certified, and has a Bachelor's degree in Social Science (Psychology). He now sees psychology as a field of study where you fuzz humans until they produce unexpected behaviour. **SPONSORS** * VENUE SPONSOR: [CyberSG TIG Collaboration Centre](https://www.linkedin.com/company/cybersg-tig-collaboration-centre) **IMPORTANT NOTICES** * Code of Conduct: [https://www.div0.sg/code-of-conduct](https://www.div0.sg/code-of-conduct) * Terms of Use & Disclaimer Notice: [https://www.div0.sg/terms-of-use-disclaimer-notice](https://www.div0.sg/terms-of-use-disclaimer-notice)

Whatsapp Philip for any questions: 8452 0693 Hola! Come and pick up some Spanish at Saturday Spanish: Sábado de Español. Learners of all ages and all levels are welcome. All our language-learning meetup events are free of charge. WE WANT SPANISH SPEAKERS TOO! We are on a constant lookout for proficient Spanish speakers (not necessarily native) to come and share their knowledge of the language and culture. If you speak the language, come and join us and make lots of friends. See you there amigos! Directions: https://maps.app.goo.gl/mRfYKAMXaL9rLLEz8 *** 1. NO COMMERCIAL ACTIVITIES We welcome anyone who is keen to learn a language or help others learn the language. However, this is NOT the platform for individuals who have other intentions, such as recruiting members for their business/organisation, WhatsApp groups or selling products or services. We will not hesitate to ask such individuals to stop attending our meetups if they have been found to be pestering our members for such purposes. 2\. GETTING THERE Take Downtown Line or Circle Line to Promenade MRT. At Promenade MRT take Exit C, turn right and walk into Suntec City, take the escalators or lift to level 3, you will find FOOD ARENA foodcourt next to Burger King. 3\.

You can ask the other language groups at the food court where the Spanish Group is sitting, they will help guide you.

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.
