-  %% Slide 1:
-  \section{Introduction}
-
-  %% Slide 2:
-  \begin{frame}{Chicken and egg}
-    Self-hosted compilers are often built using themselves, for example:
-
-    \begin{itemize}
-    \item C-family compilers bootstrap themselves \& each other
-    \item (Some!) Common Lisp compilers can bootstrap each other
-    \item \texttt{rustc} bootstraps itself with a previous version
-    \item ... same for many other languages!
-    \end{itemize}
-  \end{frame}
-
-  \begin{frame}{Chicken, egg and ... lizard?}
-    It's not just compilers: Languages have runtimes, too.
-
-    \begin{itemize}
-    \item JVM is implemented in C++
-    \item Erlang-VM is C
-    \item Haskell runtime is C
-    \end{itemize}
-
-    ... we can't ever get away from C, can we?
-  \end{frame}
-
-  %% Slide 3:
-  \begin{frame}{Trusting Trust}
-    \begin{center}
-      \huge{Could this be exploited?}
-    \end{center}
-  \end{frame}
-
-  %% Slide 4:
-  \begin{frame}{Short interlude: A quine}
-    \begin{center}
-      \begin{code}
-        ((lambda (x) (list x (list 'quote x)))
-        \newline\vspace*{6mm} '(lambda (x) (list x (list 'quote x))))
-      \end{code}
-    \end{center}
-  \end{frame}
-
-  %% Slide 5:
-  \begin{frame}{Short interlude: Quine Relay}
-    \begin{center}
-      \includegraphics[
-        keepaspectratio=true,
-        height=\textheight
-      ]{quine-relay.png}
-    \end{center}
-  \end{frame}
-
-  %% Slide 6:
-  \begin{frame}{Trusting Trust}
-    An attack described by Ken Thompson in 1983:
-
-    \begin{enumerate}
-    \item Modify a compiler to detect when it's compiling itself.
-    \item Let the modification insert \textit{itself} into the new compiler.
-    \item Add arbitrary attack code to the modification.
-    \item \textit{Optional!} Remove the attack from the source after compilation.
-    \end{enumerate}
-  \end{frame}
-
-  %% Slide 7:
-  \begin{frame}{Damage potential?}
-    \begin{center}
-      \large{Let your imagination run wild!}
-    \end{center}
-  \end{frame}
-
-  %% Slide 8:
-  \section{Countermeasures}
-
-  %% Slide 9:
-  \begin{frame}{Diverse Double-Compiling}
-    Assume we have:
-
-    \begin{itemize}
-    \item Target language compilers $A$ and $T$
-    \item The source code of $A$: $ S_{A} $
-    \end{itemize}
-  \end{frame}
-
-  %% Slide 10:
-  \begin{frame}{Diverse Double-Compiling}
-    Apply the first stage (functional equivalence):
-
-    \begin{itemize}
-    \item $ X = A(S_{A})$
-    \item $ Y = T(S_{A})$
-    \end{itemize}
-
-    Apply the second stage (bit-for-bit equivalence):
-
-    \begin{itemize}
-    \item $ V = X(S_{A})$
-    \item $ W = Y(S_{A})$
-    \end{itemize}
-
-    Now we have a new problem: Reproducibility!
-  \end{frame}
-
-  %% Slide 11:
-  \begin{frame}{Reproducibility}
-    Bit-for-bit equivalent output is hard, for example:
-
-    \begin{itemize}
-    \item Timestamps in output artifacts
-    \item Non-deterministic linking order in concurrent builds
-    \item Non-deterministic VM \& memory states in outputs
-    \item Randomness in builds (sic!)
-    \end{itemize}
-  \end{frame}
-
-  \begin{frame}{Reproducibility}
-    \begin{center}
-      Without reproducibility, we can never trust that any shipped
-      binary matches the source code!
-    \end{center}
-  \end{frame}
-
-  %% Slide 12:
-  \section{(Partial) State of the Union}
-
-  \begin{frame}{The Desired State}
-    \begin{center}
-      \begin{enumerate}
-      \item Full-source bootstrap!
-      \item All packages reproducible!
-      \end{enumerate}
-    \end{center}
-  \end{frame}
-
-  %% Slide 13:
-  \begin{frame}{Bootstrapping Debian}
-    \begin{itemize}
-    \item Sparse information on the Debian-wiki
-    \item Bootstrapping discussions mostly resolve around new architectures
-    \item GCC is compiled by depending on previous versions of GCC
-    \end{itemize}
-  \end{frame}
-
-  \begin{frame}{Reproducing Debian}
-    Debian has a very active effort for reproducible builds:
-
-    \begin{itemize}
-    \item Organised information about reproducibility status
-    \item Over 90\% reproducibility in Debian package base!
-    \end{itemize}
-  \end{frame}
-
-  \begin{frame}{Short interlude: Nix}
-    \begin{center}
-      \includegraphics[
-        keepaspectratio=true,
-        height=0.7\textheight
-      ]{nixos-logo.png}
-    \end{center}
-  \end{frame}
-
-  \begin{frame}{Short interlude: Nix}
-    \begin{center}
-      \includegraphics[
-        keepaspectratio=true,
-        height=0.90\textheight
-      ]{drake-meme.png}
-    \end{center}
-  \end{frame}
-
-  \begin{frame}{Short interlude: Nix}
-    \begin{center}
-      \includegraphics[
-        keepaspectratio=true,
-        height=0.7\textheight
-      ]{nixos-logo.png}
-    \end{center}
-  \end{frame}
-
-  \begin{frame}{Bootstrapping NixOS}
-    Nix evaluation can not recurse forever: The bootstrap can not
-    simply depend on a previous GCC.
-
-    Workaround: \texttt{bootstrap-tools} tarball from a previous
-    binary cache is fetched and used.
-
-    An unfortunate magic binary blob ...
-  \end{frame}
-
-  \begin{frame}{Reproducing NixOS}
-    Not all reproducibility patches have been ported from Debian.
-
-    However: Builds are fully repeatable via the Nix fundamentals!
-  \end{frame}
-
-  \section{Future Developments}
-
-  \begin{frame}{Bootstrappable: stage0}
-    Hand-rolled ``Cthulhu's Path to Madness'' hex-programs:
-
-    \begin{itemize}
-    \item No non-auditable binary blobs
-    \item Aims for understandability by 70\% of programmers
-    \item End goal is a full-source bootstrap of GCC
-    \end{itemize}
-  \end{frame}
-
-
-  \begin{frame}{Bootstrappable: MES}
-    Bootstrapping the ``Maxwell Equations of Software'':
-
-    \begin{itemize}
-    \item Minimal C-compiler written in Scheme
-    \item Minimal Scheme-interpreter (currently in C, but intended to
-      be rewritten in stage0 macros)
-    \item End goal is full-source bootstrap of the entire GuixSD
-    \end{itemize}
-  \end{frame}
-
-  \begin{frame}{Other platforms}
-    \begin{itemize}
-    \item Nix for Darwin is actively maintained
-    \item F-Droid Android repository works towards fully reproducible
-      builds of (open) Android software
-    \item Mobile devices (phones, tablets, etc.) are a lost cause at
-      the moment
-    \end{itemize}
-  \end{frame}

-  \begin{frame}{Thanks!}
