As the web browser accumulates important features, we can offload more of the

work of servers onto clients. What happens when there's no more work for the

server to do? How can we use webrtc and p2p techniques to build internet

services that nobody can own?

# Hackbases, infrastructure for postcapitalism

Often hailed as some ultimate constructive and radical force, hackers are subsumed by the lifestyle logic of current advanced capitalist societies. To describe a common hacker is to describe a hobbyist - hanging out at the local hackerspace and playing with personal projects after necessary paid labour. This covers their subsistence, but also probably more or less directly powers the bullshit neoliberal political reality, with its destructive effects on society and nature.
|
||||
Hackbases are a new type of institution to enable work in the other direction. They are hackerspaces you can also live in, for any period of time, with minimized need for dealing with (earning, spending) money. The goal is to design and spread a tech-forward model of infrastructure and a lifestyle, supporting free, full-time avantgarde technologists and people in general, serving the commons. This talk should equip and inspire you to visit one of the existing bases (like CHT in Lanzarote, Canary Islands @ http://totalism.org/), or even better, reorganize your living situation to start a new one.

# Apathy, and "My Pet Project"
|

I see two systemic behaviours in the broad hacker community, which consistantly stifle progress, and I don't think it has to be this way.
|
||||
Whether it's giving up on private communication due to societal pressure, or growing jaded from investing all your time into developing proprietary software for an ungrateful company, apathy is a grating force in open source communities. The second, and an arguabely bigger problem, is what I'm calling the "Pet Project" syndrome. People grow to love a software project like their own child, and often end up favouring, and defending it like it's their own child. This causes people to close their eyes to solutions others have already found, and creates a lot of parallel work.
|
||||
|
||||
I'd like to collaboratively discuss these issues, provide some examples, and maybe we can discover some solutions.

# Mapping the Megacity - Challenges of applying a developed world software standard to a devloping world context

For the past 9 months a team has been trying to map all formal and informal transportation in Cairo in a digital format. Such digital transit information is generally incoded in GTFS, the General Transit Feed System. However, applying GTFS to the Egyptian context is a challenge: How do you encode Stops where none exist? How do you define 10 different sorts of microbuses each with their own conventions, defferntiating them from public buses when only one cetagory called 'bus' exists?
|
||||
Public transportation in Cairo is an organic being in constant change, and a result of many individual solutions; not unlike squating. In this talk I will share the challenges of mapping the unmappable, and raise some interesing thoughts.

Some years ago I was inspired to take a list of known empty residences and transform it to a google maps so people could use it to find places to squat. I tried to build further on this by scraping real estate websites. Sadly, it is too big for me alone, and involves software I myself am not good enough at. So, let us all take a couple minutes to consider what we may be able to create here.
