Small Internet Presentation at MCH2022
July 29th, 2022
----------------------------------------
I'm back home from the Netherlands and MCH2022 (May Contain
Hackers). It was a whirlwind and quite awesome. I'm just floored
by how much stuff a bunch of volunteers can accomplish with
motivation and creative hacking.
The talks were amazing and most can now be found online on the CCC
site. There was also an epic CTF game going on the whole week (I
helped out in some lock picking challenges). The ad-hoc villages
created by visitors were endless fun too. What a wild ride. I hope
you all get the chance to attend one of these hacker camps in the
future.
I participated in one group panel discussion on social media,
disinformation, and fascism that was really interesting, but not
recorded. I also gave one of the curated stage presentations which
was recorded [0].

My main talk was about the small internet, and specifically about
gopher and gemini. It covers some framing for what people mean by
the term small internet, what services and activities fall under
the umbrella, and a bit of sentiment and behavior information from
the survey I shared here earlier. Then I run through a quick
technical overview of gopher and gemini, and finish off with
a quick nod at pubnix and tildes. The questions from the audience
were wonderful and I hope it broadens awareness of our fun little
spaces. If you want to see the slides from the presentation,
they're a Nuxt app I tossed together for the purpose and can be
found here [1]:

I hope I get to go to another camp in the near future. Perhaps
next time I'll discuss contract based dependency management [2].
