In this talk Holger Levsen will give an overview about reproducible builds, the past, the presence and the future. How it started with a small BoF at DebConf13 (and before), how it grew from being a Debian effort to something many projects work on together, until in 2021 it was mentioned in an executive order of the president of the United States. And of course the talk will not end there but rather outline where we are today and where we still need to be going, until we'll all be running 100% reproducible software, verified by many.

And while Holger's day to day work and this talk will have a Debian focus, reproducible builds in other project will be featured and not be left behind as Holger has been involved in Reproducible Builds since 2014 and has been working on reproducing Arch Linux, coreboot, Fedora, FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenWrt and others. Other important software projects will also be covered and last not least Holger will also explain why you'll want verifiable S
BOMs and not just SBOMs.
So what is this talk about exactly again? "A build is reproducible if given the same source code, build environment and build instructions, any party can recreate bit-by-bit identical copies of all specified artifacts." (https://reproducible-builds.org/docs/definition)

Humanitären Prinzipien fungieren in der internationalen Not- und Katastrophenhilfe als Leitplanke. Sie sollen die Arbeit von NGOs (non-governmental organizations) unterstützen, und gleichzeitig Hilfesuchende schützen. Doch was bedeutet es eigentlich, sich an Prinzipien wie das der Neutralität zu halten? Etwa Schweigen, wenn offensichtlich Menschenrechte verletzt werden? Oder können humanitäre Prinzipien dabei helfen, eine kritische Haltung einzunehmen? Und wie schwer ist eigentlich die ...

## What Play a round of our FOSS funding programme with us and test our new focus "sufficiency". Since 2020, we support open source public-interest-tech projects in Switzerland with [our Prototype Fund](https://prototypefund.opendata.ch/). ## Why Global greenhouse gas emissions continue to rise, sufficiency and systemic innovation must also play a central role in the context of digitalisation. From 2023/24 onwards, we will therefore fund two projects per year in the field of "sufficiency" to ...

We can replace the operating system of an Android phone when we have the necessary hardware drivers. Using NixOS as the operating system allows us to reliably recompile most of the modern software that we rely on for the mobile operating system to get the benefits of using real applications instead of just the limited capabilities of mobile apps. For example, programs like databases, webservices, CAD, compilers, image processing can run natively on the phone when you get rid of the Android ...
