Bike- and e-bike-sharing promise sustainable, equitable mobility - but what makes these systems successful? Despite hundreds of cities operating thousands of shared bikes, trip data is rarely public. To address this, we built a geospatial analysis pipeline that reconstructs trip data from publicly accessible system status feeds. Using this method, we gathered **43 million km** of bike-sharing trips across **268 European cities**. Combined with over **100 urban indicators** per city, our analyses reveal how infrastructure, climate, demographics, operations, and politics shape system performance. We uncover surprising insights - such as why some e-bike systems underperform despite strong demand - and highlight how cities can design smarter, fairer mobility. All data and code are open-source, with an interactive demo at bikesharingflowmap.de.

Nicht zuletzt durch die Werbung in den sozialen Medien werden in Deutschland immer mehr Nahrungsergänzungsmittel verkauft. Einige Influencer bringen sogar ihre eigenen Präparate auf den Markt. Gleichzeitig häufen sich Fälle, in denen die Einnahme von vermeintlich harmlosen „Supplements“ zu Gesundheitsschäden geführt hat. Der Vortrag will daher die Mechanismen hinter dem Supplement-Hype aufzeigen, zudem erklären, warum aktuell ein ausreichender Verbraucherschutz insbesondere im Internet nicht gewährleistet werden kann, wo Handlungsbedarf für die Politik besteht und wie man sich selbst vor fragwürdigen Produkten schützen kann.

Science is hard and research into the usage of the Tor network is especially so. Since it was designed to counter suveillance, it gathering reliable information is difficult. As a consequence, the studies we do have, have yielded very different results. This talk investigates the root causes of contradicting studies by highlighting how slight changes in methodology or data selection completely change the results and thereby our understanding of what the Darknet is. Whether you consider it the last bastion of freedom or a haven of crime, this talk will tell you where to look and what to ignore in order to confirm your current opinion. And in case you are open to changing it, we have some food for thought for you.

The Dutch railways have been operating an increasingly complicated network of trains for over 80 years. The task of overseeing it is far too complex for a single human. As such, a network of specifically scoped humans has been connected. Over time, computers and software have been introduced into the system, but today there is still a significant role for humans. This talk describes the network of "human microservices" that is involved in the Dutch Railways' day to day operation from the eyes of a software developer.

The Vital Bracelet series is an ecosystem of interactive fitness toys, content on memory chips, and apps that talk via NFC. In this talk, we'll explore the hardware and software of the series, from its obscure CPU architecture, to how it interacts with the outside world, from dumping OTP ROMs and breaking security, to making custom firmware.

Over the last half year I have explored the Motorola mc14500 - a CPU with a true one-bit architecture - and made it simulate Conway's Game of Life. This talk gives a look into how implementing a design for such a simplistic CPU can work, and how it's possible to address 256 LEDs and half a kiloword of memory with just four bits of address space.

Die Arktis ist eine Region, in der die Sonne monatelang weg ist, dickes Meereis den Weg versperrt und deshalb Forschungsdaten ziemlich rar sind. Kompliziert also, herauszufinden was im Wasser blüht! Mit einer Kombination aus Satellitenbildern, Expeditionen und Modellsimulationen auf Hochleistungsrechnern versuche ich, das Verborgene sichtbar zu machen: die faszinierende, farbenfrohe Welt des arktischen Phytoplanktons.
