Welcome to the Lynx Hackathon! 💻

At the Lynx Hackathon, you will work in teams to create a fully systematic trading strategy based on real market data. Your algorithm will be evaluated in a virtual environment at the end of the event, allowing you to see how your idea would have worked in the real financial market. There will be investment professionals from our research and trading department at your disposal to answer questions and guide you through the process. After the event, there will be dinner and mingle at the office!

For more information and how to apply, go to our website www.lynxhedge.se/hackathon. The website will open for application 1st of December.

Hello hello!

Every Saturday from 2 pm to 3 pm we have booked KTH Hallen for the rest of the semester. The idea is that we do some activity/sport for an hour. Everyone is welcome! The primary goal is having fun, not to play super competitively.

This week (Saturday 2nd) we will play tail tag and other types of tag games for 1 hour.

I will try to vary the sports in the following weeks. And please come with suggestions for what we can do!!!

All events are published in our sports group on Facebook.

Hope to see you there 🙂

Monday 11th of December 17:30 will be a pub 🍻 and gingerbread house building competition in both META and Tolvan???! 🙀 😵‍💫 🫣.

This is a chance to visit an unfamiliar chapter hall and meet Electro ⚡ MedTek 🩻 Media 🎥 and Data 🤓 students!

The gingerbread house building competition (17:30-18:30) requires cooperation, creativity, and speed and includes relay-race-like elements (why??- ✋Trust us). Everyone who enters the contest gets a free custom ✨ extremely swag 😎 one of a kind 💎 premium patch. Register in dsekt.se/mt23 to get a team (limited places!)

For those who can't make it to the competition, fear not. The pub 🍻 🪩 in META (and maybe Tolvan) is open from 17:30. There you will also be able to buy 💵 patches left over from the competition. You get into the pub for the chapter you do not belong to through our (patent pending) 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 drinking-buddy-system™.

Further details will come closer to the event 👍 👍 👍

During week 49, a blank 128x128 canvas will be open, and anyone can build their masterpiece with a cooldown between each block. Bring all your friends and work together to create and defend your place in this historical moment! Everyone from the Data and Media chapters are welcome to participate at any time during the week, no matter if you are active in the student body or not.

After the week has elapsed, we will be printing out the final result and hang it up in META. It will also be available as a map item in the main server once it opens!

Server IP: event.mc.datasektionen.se (Java 1.20.2) The event begins on December 4th at 5 PM, and ends on December 11th at 5 PM.

Join the Discord server here: https://dsekt.se/metacraft

We'll see you in META (in Minecraft)!

Welcome to Datas Danskväll (DDK)! On Monday the 27th of October we will continue with the dance evenings and we will focus on Bugg. The goal is for us data scientists to gracefully glide across the dance floor at balls. This will be the last opportunity to practice before the dJubileet, so join us!

On future occasions, we will also have the opportunity to learn salsa, chacha, rumba, foxtrot, jive, lindy hop, tango, slow foxtrot, and quickstep.

(𝐎𝐁𝐒: We couldn't book a room so Joakim will occupy one in the Q-building)

Join us on Monday with or without a partner! Hope to see you then.

dChristmasy greetings D chapter!

It is once again time for Konglig Datasektionen’s yearly CTF competition dJulkalendern! Do you have too much time to study? Exams to procrastinate for? Chapter-work to do some other time? Wonderful! Come and compete for the title Bäst på att DATA™!

A challenge is released every weekday in December (starting this friday!!!) before christmas eve at 12:15 CET. The challenges are cryptic puzzles, hacking and other computer science related things and your task is to solve as many of them, and as fast, as possible! The calendar has an intriguing story that unfolds as you solve each window.

The competition is individual, but a little while after a window has been released it is both allowed and encouraged to cooperate!

The winner receives the title Bäst på att DATA™. There is also an achievement patch for those who solve all windows and those who do it the quickest will receive dJulkalendern-themed T-shirts!

You can now already go to https://djulkalendern.se and solve the introductory window, -1, as well as make sure you understand the system and read the rules!

You should also join our discord server: https://dsekt.se/djul, where you can ask us questions, discuss the windows you have solved and be notified about any possible hints!

Regards, Tomtefar Mathias Magnusson and the rest of the dJul team!

Did you miss Stadium Night Run or did you feel that it was not enough? Then there's another 5k very close to campus. Armada run is set to occur Friday the 3rd of November. This course consists of more tarmac and hard surfaces than the night rrun, which could be good considering the light conditions. The start will be at 16:45 and after the race there will be refreshments. According to the event page the event will conclude at 19:00.
