Hello Gophers! Our **Build Your Own Macropad: From Soldering to Software** workshop will be held on **20 May 2026**, before our GopherCon Singapore 2026 conference. All attendees will require a separate ticket, as a keyboard kit will be provided for you to take home. You can buy tickets for the conference and this workshop at our [GopherCon Singapore 2026 website](https://2026.gophercon.sg). Workshop description follows: In this hands-on workshop, you'll go from a pile of parts to a fully functional, custom macropad. The morning is dedicated to soldering your hardware, and the afternoon is all about bringing it to life using TinyGo. A proven experience from Japan — the TinyGo Keeb Tour has successfully hosted 10 events across various cities since 2024, helping participants build their own zero-kb02 keyboards. Now, they're bringing this experience to Singapore! New to soldering? No problem! The team will be right there to guide you through every step. There are plenty of spare parts, so there's no need to worry about making mistakes — it's all part of the learning process. ### Full Curriculum #### Meet the zero-kb02 The zero-kb02 isn't just a simple keypad — it's a powerful, programmable controller designed for versatility. You'll be building and coding with: * **Brain:** Powered by the RP2040 microcontroller * **Controls:** 12 keys for your favorite shortcuts * **Interaction:** A Joystick and a Rotary Encoder for intuitive navigation * **Visuals:** An OLED Display and RGB LEDs to show status and add flair #### Endless Possibilities with TinyGo Beyond a simple keypad, the zero-kb02 is a gateway to embedded development. With the extensive documentation and the power of TinyGo, you can transform it into: * **Musical Instruments:** Create a buzzer-based synth or a MIDI controller * **Gadgets:** Build a weather station using I2C sensors and the OLED display * **Gaming:** Run 2D games using koebiten (a TinyGo-friendly subset of Ebitengine) * **Fully Customizable Keyboard:** It's Vial-compatible, allowing you to remap keys and change settings directly from your web browser #### Morning: Soldering Workshop You'll assemble your own zero-kb02 from scratch — soldering the RP2040 microcontroller, keys, joystick, rotary encoder, OLED display, and RGB LEDs. Expert staff will guide you through every step. #### Afternoon: Programming with TinyGo With your macropad assembled, you'll bring it to life with TinyGo firmware. Learn how to program key mappings, control the OLED display, drive RGB LEDs, and read the joystick and rotary encoder — all in Go. By the end of the day, you'll leave with a custom keyboard that you built and programmed yourself. See you there! Cheers, GoSG for GopherConSG 2026

Hello Gophers! Our **Ultimate Software Design and Engineering** workshop will be held on **20 May 2026**, before our GopherCon Singapore 2026 conference. Ardan Labs' popular Ultimate Software Design class is back for probably the final year! We've specially requested for William Kennedy to continue teaching this class, because we believe that strong fundamentals would be even more necessary than ever in the age of AI. You can buy tickets for the conference and this workshop at our [GopherCon Singapore 2026 website](https://2026.gophercon.sg/). Workshop description follows: This class teaches you how to engineer production-level software in Go leveraging the power of a domain-driven, data-oriented architecture that can run in Kubernetes. From the beginning, you will pair-program and read code with the instructor as he walks through the design philosophies and guidelines for engineering software in Go. With each new feature that is discussed, you will learn how to think about, read, maintain, manage, and debug code. The core of this class is to teach you how to handle and reduce the spread of complexity in the systems you are building. If one of your biggest challenges is maintaining consistent coding standards across your codebase, maybe because team members have different levels of Go experience and are coming from different programming backgrounds, this course is for you. You will learn a set of idiomatic coding standards that everyone can adopt and apply to your existing projects. #### What a student is expected to learn: ##### Deploy First Mentality: We begin to focus on service design with a focus on the ability to maintain, manage, and debug the service in Kubernetes. * Design Philosophy, Guidelines, What to Expect * Project Layers, Policies, and Guidelines * Prepare Project ##### Domain-Driven, Data-Oriented Architecture: We talk about the data-driven, data-oriented architecture. We discuss the design philosophy, guidelines, and semantics of how the three layers of App, Business, and Storage work together. * Architecture Review * Applying and Implementing Firewalls * Data Flow Trust vs Non-Trust * Data Shaping and Data Validation * Developer Isolation with Domains * Extending Functionality through Composition

👋 Hello AWS User Group Community! Join us on Wednesday, 20th May 2026, for our May meetup at the AWS Singapore Office, IOI Central Boulevard! We’re bringing the community together again for an evening of sharing, learning, and connecting — stay tuned as we finalise the session lineup 👀 📅 Date: Wednesday, 20th May 2026 🕡 Time: 6:30 PM 📍 Location: AWS Singapore; 2 Central Blvd, IOI Central Boulevard East Towers, Level 5 🎤 **Meetup Track** ✅ **Lessons Learned Deploying an LLM-Powered Knowledge Assistant** 📌 Speaker: Hairizuan Noorazman, DevOps Engineer Engineering teams often lose time navigating fragmented Jira and Confluence documentation. To address this, an LLM-powered chatbot was built on AWS — using ECR, EKS, and Amazon Bedrock. The initial RAG approach quickly surfaced critical issues such as data leakage in vector stores, prompt injection, and broken access controls. This session breaks down these failure modes and explores a pivot to a Model Context Protocol (MCP) integration with Atlassian, allowing queries over live data instead of duplicating it. Attendees will gain practical insights into RAG vs MCP trade-offs and a reference AWS architecture for building safer LLM systems. ✅ **Kiro IDE Best Practices in SDLC and Scrum Sprint DevSecOps** 📌 Speaker: Tim Wu, Senior GTM Specialist SA AI/ML An AI-powered development environment that embeds enterprise standards directly into your workflow. See how Kiro transforms traditional SDLC approaches through its Five-Element Architecture, making compliance, security, and best practices automatic rather than afterthoughts. Kiro provides ready-to-use configurations that enforce guardrails while accelerating development. This session focuses on live demonstrations to show you exactly how steering files, hooks, skills, subagents, and MCP integrations work together in real enterprise scenarios. ✅ **Running AI agents that control computers: AWS architecture for sandboxed autonomous execution** 📌 Speaker: Sahil Sharma, Applied AI Enthusiast Agents that browse, click, and type need more than an API call- they need isolated sandboxes, warm container pools, and an architecture that scales. This deep dive covers how 14 AWS services come together to run autonomous computer-use agents safely and fast in production. 📢 **IMPORTANT! Registration Information** To ensure a smooth check-in process, please take note of the following: ✅ ✅ Confirmed attendees will receive a confirmation email before the event titled *"**AWS User Group Singapore: Registration Confirmed for AWS User Group Meetup – May 2026**."* You must present this email at the Level 2 Concierge to gain access to Level 5 for attendance verification. 🚶 Walk-ins (those without a confirmation email) will only be considered if the venue has not reached full capacity. Priority will be given to registered attendees with confirmation emails. 🔒 Strictly enforced: No confirmation email = walk-in.

Hello Gophers! Our **Ultimate Practical AI** workshop will be held on **21 May 2026**, before our GopherCon Singapore 2026 conference. You can buy tickets for the conference and this workshop at our [GopherCon Singapore 2026 website](https://2026.gophercon.sg). Workshop description follows: This is a hands-on, full-day workshop where you'll build a complete AI-powered application in Go — from first prompt to production-ready system. You'll start by connecting your Go application to a language model and grounding its responses in real data using Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG). Then you'll give it the ability to act on the world through Tool Calling, Function Execution, and the Model Context Protocol (MCP). With the core system working, you'll learn the advanced optimization techniques that separate prototypes from production — speculative decoding, semantic caching, and intelligent model routing. Finally, you'll harden everything against the security threats unique to LLM-powered systems, from prompt injection to data exfiltration. Each part builds on the last. By the end of the day, you won't just understand these concepts — you'll have built, optimized, and secured a working system that retrieves, reasons, and acts. ### Full Curriculum #### What a Student Is Expected to Learn By the end of this workshop, you'll leave with working code, a production-ready mindset for AI-powered Go applications, and hands-on experience across the full stack: retrieval, action, performance, and security. 🚀 ##### Part 1: Ground It — Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) in Go * **Understanding RAG Concepts** – Improve responses by dynamically retrieving relevant context rather than relying solely on static training data. * **Ingesting and Processing Documents** – Build pipelines to index and retrieve documents from client systems. * **Interacting with AI-Compatible APIs** – Learn how Go applications can connect to local inference engines, OpenAI-compatible servers, or cloud AI services. * **Optimizing Performance & Latency** – Implement caching, batching, and parallel processing to enhance efficiency. * **Using Vector Databases** – Store and search embeddings with tools such as Chroma, Pinecone, Weaviate, Milvus or pgvector in PostgreSQL. ##### Part 2: Make It Act — Tool Calling, Function Execution & MCP in Go * **How AI Uses Tool Calling** – Enable external system control by allowing AI to invoke predefined functions in Go. * **Building Function Calls with OpenAI-Compatible Systems** – Define structured function inputs and outputs for AI-driven interactions. * **Connecting to External APIs & Databases** – Trigger real-world actions, query databases, and automate workflows. * **Handling Responses & Errors** – Ensure safe and reliable execution of AI-invoked functions. * **Introduction to the Model Context Protocol (MCP)** – Understand how MCP standardizes the way models discover and invoke tools. Build a simple MCP server in Go that exposes tools to any MCP-compatible client, showing how it compares to direct function calling. ##### Part 3: Make It Fast — Advanced Optimizations * **Speculative Decoding** – Use a smaller draft model alongside a larger verification model to get near-large-model quality at small-model speeds. Applicable to both local inference libraries and serving engines that support it natively. * **Automatic Prefix Caching & KV Cache Reuse** – Structure multi-turn conversations so shared prefixes (system prompts, conversation history) are cached and reused across requests, avoiding redundant computation. Manage message arrays carefully to keep prefixes stable across turns. * **Semantic Caching** – Embed user queries and check vector similarity against cached query-response pairs, returning cached answers for semantically equivalent questions without running inference — implementable in Go with any embedding model or API. * **Adaptive Retrieval** – Use a lightweight classifier or a small local model to decide whether RAG context is needed at all, avoiding irrelevant context injection that can degrade response quality. * **Cascading Model Routing** – Route queries to different models based on complexity: a fast small model for simple questions, escalating to a larger model only when confidence is low, implemented as Go middleware. ##### Part 4: Lock It Down — Securing LLM-Powered Go Applications * **Prompt Injection Defenses** – Understand direct and indirect prompt injection attacks, and implement role separation, input sanitization, and detection strategies. Demonstrate how injected instructions in user input or retrieved documents can hijack model behavior. * **Securing Tool Calls** – Apply least-privilege principles to exposed functions, prevent command injection from model output, and enforce authorization checks before execution. * **RAG Pipeline Security** – Guard against data poisoning and indirect injection via ingested documents. Show how a malicious document in the vector DB can manipulate retrieval results and model responses, and defend with access controls, relevance thresholds, and content isolation. * **Output Sanitization & Exfiltration Prevention** – Sanitize model-generated content before rendering in web UIs to prevent XSS. Defend against data exfiltration where the model encodes sensitive retrieved data into tool call arguments targeting attacker-controlled endpoints, using domain allowlists and egress filtering. * **Chain-of-Call Escalation** – Show how a model can chain multiple tool calls in a single turn to escalate privileges. Implement call budgets, supervision layers, and human-in-the-loop checkpoints in Go.

\* Please note the change in venue. !Beware of scams & false impersonation! We do not feature new authors or charge a speaker fee but wish you the best. Country: Turkey Written in: 1943 Pages: 192 Still unheard of by many English readers, Madonna in a Fur Coat is long considered to be among the country's top literature in Turkey. Thanks to social media reviews on YouTube and TikTok (BookTok!), it's seen a recent resurgence in popularity. So after you read the book you should be able to find some extra content to feed you before the discussion! Here's a review from [Amazon](https://www.amazon.sg/Madonna-Fur-Coat-Sabahattin-Ali/dp/0241293855) Madonna in a Fur Coat by Sabahattin Ali is a quiet, deeply moving novel that lingers long after you finish reading. The story tells us about Raif Efendi, a man whose past reveals a deep, life-changing love in 1920s Berlin. Through his colleague’s eyes, one can see how people are easily misunderstood. Raif Efendi comes across as unremarkable and distant at first. As the story unfolds, you see the depth of his character. His time in 1920s Berlin, and his connection with Maria Puder form the heart of the story. Alongside him is the unnamed narrator, his colleague and friend, who becomes an important aspect in how we understand and see Raif. At first, the narrator thinks of Raif the same way everyone does, but later his perception shifts. This change adds another layer to the story, making the readers more curious about Raif. The portrayal of love makes the book stand out. It shows how two people can feel deeply for each other and still not be destined to be together. There is no clear reason to blame, which makes the story feel even more real. Raif’s journey feels both heartbreaking and enduring, as he carries his past quietly into the rest of his life. This is a story about love, loss, and the silent weight people carry. \*\*\*\*\* **New to the Hungry Hundred Book Club?** Here's what you need to know: 1. Read the book (If you don't manage to finish it by the meetup date, don't worry. As long as you're not going to be too disappointed by spoilers, you're still welcome to join.) 2. Come to the meeting, usually (but not always!) on the last Sunday of every month. 3. Be prepared to order food/drink at the venue to show our appreciation for letting us use their space.
