Rocket.Chat: Entering the Matrix (matrix-conf-2025)

Chaos Computer Club - recent audio-only feed ·

2025/10/17

In this talk, we trace the journey of evolving Rocket.Chat from a standalone collaboration server into a full-fledged Matrix home-server — all built in TypeScript. We’ll dive into the architecture decisions, the incremental features (federation, room state sync, identity translation, event routing, crypto, and bridging), and the real challenges of combining two paradigms (Rocket.Chat’s internal model + the Matrix spec) in one codebase. You’ll hear about lessons learned: when to build vs reuse, how

Invisible Crypto: can Matrix be both secure and easy...

Chaos Computer Club - recent audio-only feed ·

2025/10/17

The Invisible Crypto initiative intends to make Matrix easier to use by ensuring that encrypted messaging is secure by default, and the user is not bothered by irrelevant information. In this talk we will give a status update, hopefully explaining why crypto needed to become slightly more visible on the journey towards making it disappear. We'll go into some detail about what we've done (and why some of it makes things a little more noisy) and what we plan to do to really get there. We've been

Causal ML for Smarter Advertising Campaigns with...

Chaos Computer Club - recent audio-only feed ·

2025/10/17

Traditionally, marketing campaign analysis relies on simple metrics like the number of purchases made after a contact, or conversions following a promotion. While these numbers tell us what happened, they don’t reveal why it happened or if the campaign truly made a difference. Such analysis can’t distinguish between customers who would have acted anyway and those who were genuinely influenced by the campaign. The key question is: did the campaign actually cause the desired effect? In this practical

Lessons learned from implementing Native OIDC from...

Chaos Computer Club - recent audio-only feed ·

2025/10/17

Are we OIDC yet ? YES ! We are ! OpenID Connect evolved as the one and only identity standard in the modern web. With MSC3861, the [matrix] ecosystem is finally moving to OIDC as the authentication standard amongst clients and homeservers. Out of curiosity, I started implementing a native OIDC implementation from scratch : no OAuth 2.0 library, no Ruma ; just the [matrix] Dart SDK, an HTTP client and the MSC in front of me. This talk will be about the lessons learned. Licensed to the public under

Improving the security of the federation protocol...

Chaos Computer Club - recent audio-only feed ·

2025/10/17

The federation protocol is how Matrix homeservers communicate between each other. In private federations this isn't particularly challenging as the network is trusted but in the public federation this isn't true. This talk dives into what protocol improvements are in the works to make the public federation more secure against Byzantine actors, particularly against "state resets": an unintended rollback of room state. We'll explore why this problem is hard, what some of the failure modes are, and how

AI Coding Agents and how to code them (sps25)

Chaos Computer Club - recent audio-only feed ·

2025/10/17

I Agents are the next big thing everyone has been talking about. They are expected to revolutionize various industries by automating routine tasks, mission critical business workflows, enhancing productivity, and enabling humans to focus on creative and strategic work. Of course, you can apply them to your everyday coding tasks as well. In this talk we’ll go over what those agents can bring to the table of coding world, and why they can deliver the promise of coding smarter that the current

Chaos Computer Club - recent audio-only feed ·

2025/10/17

Matrix was built to become the open communication of the web and serve everyone. But, as the Internet and email did, its network effect started with governments. Today, and as proven by the audience in the room, most European governments and several others are either using it or looking at implementing it for their communications. This talk will tell the story of how we got there and why. Licensed to the public under https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ about this event:

Eventually Consistent Access Control: Practical...

Chaos Computer Club - recent audio-only feed ·

2025/10/17

Access control is the core of any system's security, but usually provided by a single, centralized server. However, access control in a Matrix room is decentralized: every participating server *independently* decides *who* is authorized to send and receive *which* events, without consulting any other server. To the surprise of many, these decisions are still *eventually* consistent even if all but one server is malicious, but seeing *why* requires a new way of thinking about access control. I will

Machine learning for Swiss democracy (sps25)

2025/10/17

Demokratis.ch is a non-profit project working to modernise the consultation procedure—a key democratic process that allows Swiss citizens to provide feedback on proposed laws and amendments. Today, the process is slow and cumbersome for everyone involved: it requires studying lengthy PDFs, writing formal letters, and even synthesising legal arguments by copy-pasting into Excel. There’s a huge opportunity to streamline this process and make this democratic tool more accessible and inclusive. In this

Chaos Computer Club - recent audio-only feed ·

2025/10/16

Over the years, the lack of an array data type in Python has resulted in the creation of numerous array libraries, each specializing in unique niches but still having some interoperability between each other. NumPy has become the de facto array library of Python, and the other array libraries try to keep their API close to that of NumPy. However, this often becomes infeasible, and the libraries deviate out of necessity. To make Python's array libraries shake hands with each other without any

The High Price of Open Source: Building a Business...

Chaos Computer Club - recent audio-only feed ·

2025/10/16

Open Source has never been easy, but doing Open Source in the Matrix ecosystem poses a unique set of challenges. Add the pressure of sustaining a company on top of that, and you quickly find yourself in uncharted, and often uncomfortable, territory. This talk reflects on the reality of maintaining open source projects in the Matrix universe, especially from the perspective of a business. It dives into the tension between openness and exploitation, when others take your work without contributing
