36th Chaos Communication Congress – Streams

[phlo]

PSA: All talks will be live-translated between English and German, and into one additional language (primarily into French or Spanish; on occasion there were translations into Russian and Mandarin) [0].

If you find any talks on the schedule [1] that seem interesting but are in a language you're not fluent in, use the 'native'/'translated' switcher in the video player.

Subtitles will be available after congress, here [2].

Finally: Congress is an amazing experience, and it's all volunteer-driven (including the crazy network infrastructure, the live streams, the translations and everything). If you have some spare time between Christmas and the new year, consider visiting next time around. It's a lot of fun!

You'd have to be lucky though. Unless you are/were an angel (volunteer) you'll have to depend on the ticket lottery. The switch to Hamburg wasn't enough to accommodate the number of participants nor did the switch to Leipzig. It really is a very popular event.

Will they be on youtube? Id like to watch them when travelling.

Looking forward to this years installment of talks. I sort of wonder if this year will be a bit more technical again. The last 5 years felt like technical topics faded into the background in favor if social issues and knitting ...

[ATsch]

The non-technical topics couldn't be more relevant today. The idea that tech just exists in a bubble, and that one does not need to concern themselves with any ethical or moral implications is causing more harm than ever before. Dismissing that as "social issues and knitting" is concerning to me.

(knitting also being a notably feminine-coded activity)

If you're looking for a good and approachable talk about IM crypto and related subjects, hunt for this one once it gets published:

Saw it live and it was quite enjoyable.

[beefhash]

The schedule looks pretty decently packed again this year to me. I'm interested in at least one talk from almost every time slot, personally.

Can someone summarize what this is and why it’s interesting? It’s not clear from the landing page, it looks like some kind of listing of streams?

The 36C3 is a gathering of hackers hosted by the german Chaos Computer Club (CCC) and is one of the biggest in the world.

Traditionally many of the talks streamed there are pure gold, they even have english translation for the German talks. Given that the title of this page is hacker news it should really be on the top of the page when it is happening.

All the stuff is recorded and stored on http://media.ccc.de, which you can spend months on because you will find recordings of more than a decade of talks on interesting topics.

[rvz]

The streams and videos posted here are essentially the gold standard of security and hacking talks from extremely clever hackers around the world who gather here to showcase their projects or research on many topics from security, open-source, hacking, retro-computing, privacy, etc.

There is always something interesting to learn from these talks on CCC (Chaos Communication Congress) every year and that is why they're of interest to many of us here.

[DasIch]

These are live streams for the chaos communication congress. The most important conference for hackers in Germany and certainly one of the most important conferences for hackers world wide.

[blensor]

It's the annual Chaos Communication Congress that is held between christmas and new years eve and that is also live streamed.

Usually there are lot's of interesting topics for the HN community

It is like defcon but in Germany. If you check the ccc.de website it will help you to get a better idea

Of course they're a political organization. The "Ethics, Society & Politics" track should be a pretty obvious hint: https://fahrplan.events.ccc.de/congress/2019/Fahrplan/events...

[vertex-four]

The CCC is a political organisation and always has been.

[brodo]

CCC has not become a political organization, it always was. It was founded at the left-wing newspaper Taz and always had political goals. It‘s also quite interesting that american hacker conferences are all right wing and have strong ties with the ‘intelligence community’ but hacker conferences in Europe are the opposite.

[beefhash]

You're not forced to attend/watch the political parts though.

[euroPoor]

You’re german, you should be very well aware that CCC always has been political and that being Antifa is a stance a lot of folks support. Don’t try to muddy the waters here.

In the US it’s a different case but here we’re explicitly speaking of the CCC.

[kryptokommunist]

Which organization do you mean?
