An introduction to the Hackerspace and Newline!

 talk 13:45 - 14:15 : Let's go camping!

We want to invite you all to our two-annual Belgian hacker camp, Fri3d Camp 2018, from 18 to 20 august 2018 at the huge forest domain De Kluis in Sint-Joris-Weert. I (and maybe some other orga) would like to present our camp, invite you all and discuss open questions and suggestions for our camp. If time permits, we may also discuss the development of our camp badge.

 workshop 14:30 - 15:30 : Introduction to vim

For all of you that edit text files (i'm not talking about Word documents here). There’s a reason people love this editor. Find out why during this hands-on workshop. Bring a laptop. All levels welcome but lets help out beginners first. Maybe play some VimGolf.

 talk 14:30 - 15:30 : Introduction to web audio

In this talk I will introduce the relatively recent capabilities of browsers for audio processing. More to the point I will introduce parts of the Web Audio API, Web MIDI API and the HTML5 canvas element. As an example application a baby monitor web application will be dissected. To get most out of this talk some elementary knowledge on HTML, CSS and javascript helps. Bring your laptop to run or modify the demos yourself! The aim of this talk is to introduce web audio capabilities and by demonstrating some applications perhaps provide inspiration for your own projects.

 workshop 15:45 - 17:15 : Kefir workshop

Algoldor from the food hacking base will tell us everything about kefir, the bacteria culture that creates fermented probiotic milk products which are good for the digestion. Based on research it also supports your immunity system, lowers risks of variety of cancers and allergy reactions. You will taste different products (drinks, cheese), take a closer look to the bacteria culture, learn how take properly care of it and take home some culture and the manual so you can continue to do this at home or at your local hackerspace. Biotechnologist and fermentologist Algoldor will teach you step for step and also chat about various alternative usages. Since fermenting processes keep continuing, we will cook something on Saturday, taste it and return on sunday to study the differences (come after the Kombucha workshop). This workshop is donation based (PWYW) since Algoldor will be coming all the way from France to give this workshop and will provide the culture, ingredients and drinks.

 talk 15:45 - 16:45 : Hardware-Based Trusted Computing from an Attack/Defense Perspective

Protected module architectures (PMAs) are a new brand of security architectures whose main objective is to support the secure isolated execution of software modules with a minimal Trusted Computing Base (TCB). Several prototypes for embedded systems, and also the Software Guard eXtensions (SGX) included in recent Intel x86 processors, ensure isolation with a hardware-only TCB. This talk, based on my ongoing PhD research, highlights two complementary lines of PMA research. On the one hand, I will introduce the free/open-source Sancus hardware-level PMA and embedded (automotive) security applications we are actively developing. On the other hand, I will overview our recent research efforts on side-channel attacks against off-the-shelf Intel SGX platforms.

 workshop 15:45 - 17:45 : Visual Art with Processing

Let's play with Processing.org, a great tool for doing original, interactive visual art. There will be fun for everyone, whether you have experience with programming or not. Just bring a computer, Processing works on Linux, macOS, Windows and Android. We will show you how to get started, then the stage will be yours until the end of the workshop where we will present our creations to each other.

 talk 17:00 - 18:00 : DevOps: Managing the technical quality side of big projects

We are creating more complex projects than ever. Managing the technical quality of projects where multiple people work on can be a daunting task. Luckily a few years ago a new concept emerged: Devops. Devops is about combining multiple teams (mostly Developers and Operators) to enable the rapid development and evolution of products and services; and reduce the risk, improve the quality and reduce costs of building those projects. The Devops community also utilizes a lot of tools. Ever heard about Jenkins? Always wanted to know what this GIT is? This session will bring clarity in all the fancy buzzwords.

 talk 18:15 - 18:45 : Getting started with Snapcraft: Package, distribute, and update any app for Linux and IoT.

 workshop 19:30 - 21:30 : Learn to Solder!

You can easily learn all of the skills you need in a short time. Make a project, and take it home with you! We'll have kits to make cool, practical, intriguing, hackable things that you can bring home after you make it. Of course, you can also bring your own projects to hack.

 talk 19:30 - 20:00 : Building an IoT device (for commercial use)

In this talk you'll get an insight on how a commercial IoT device is set up, both on the hardware and software side.

 talk 20:15 - 21:00 : Ask Merlijn anything about Ubuntu and Open Source

Example questions - What is Open Source? - What is Ubuntu? - How do the Ubuntu developers get paid? - What is Copyleft? - What are Snaps, Flatpaks and AppImages? - Why is open source so successful? - Why isn't open source more successful? - Will this be the year of the Linux desktop?

 talk 21:15 - 21:45 : Bitcoin's caching layer: the Lightning Network

During the past year Bitcoin was at times unusable for small purchases, due to its transaction limit being reached. Different scaling solutions have been proposed, but one of the main contenders is the Lightning Network. This is a second layer on top of Bitcoin, retaining many of the security guarantees and allowing a lot more transactions per second. This talk will give a high-level overview of the Lightning Network, try to explain how it works under the hood, and give the current status.

 talk 17:30 - 18:00 : The Zodiac Killer's z340: like a fake cipher

To this day, the Zodiac Killer's second major cipher, z340, remains unsolved. In this talk, I argue that z340 is most likely a fake cipher. This hypothesis has been put forward before, but without hard evidence. I provide such evidence, which is mainly based on the analysis of mean squared distances for ngrams. This analysis is applied across various ciphers: z340, z408, which is the other major cipher by the Zodiac Killer, twenty generated ciphers based on real texts, and twenty fake ciphers based on random letter sequences. The results show that z340 behaves unlike other true ciphers. Instead, it associates with the fake ciphers.

 talk 18:15 - 19:15 : Mitch Altman: Hackerspace Design Patterns

The famous Mitch Altman, inventor of TV-B-Gone, member of Noisebridge in San Francisco, well known person and expert in the hacker community will talk about Hackerspace Design Patterns. What is a hackerspace? What makes it different from a makerspace or a fablab? He will share his experience of hackerspace communities with us. This talk can lead into a discussion, where we can all talk about what works well and not so well for our hackerspaces so we can all learn from each other, and so people from yet-to-be hackerspaces can get off to a better start.
