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

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

How Matrix is becoming the communication standard for...

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)

Chaos Computer Club - recent audio-only feed ·

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...

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

Software estimation: False sense of certainty (sps25)

Chaos Computer Club - recent audio-only feed ·

2025/10/16

It has been known since the 70s that developers tend to give very optimistic estimations. We prefer to have exact numbers, even if that means they are wrong most of the time. In research, developers admitted that they believe their managers will see them as less competent if they provide estimates with huge margins. But mathematically speaking providing a wider min-max interval means you will be right more often. So, maybe it isn’t really accuracy that businesses and people are looking for. Maybe

2025/10/16

See a demo of E2EE encrypted DMs in Bluesky powered by Matrix. We will highlight the simple user experience and other advantages of this approach to adding E2EE to Bluesky. By reusing Matrix for E2EE DMs in Bluesky, we not only offer a trusted and tested open source encryption stack but also allow users to later expand their usage beyond chat to other Matrix features such as E2EE voice, video and more. Alternate approaches to build E2EE from scratch in Bluesky will take many years to achieve
