New ask Hacker News story: Twitterwebviewer.net Is Back Online

Twitterwebviewer.net Is Back Online 2 by orange999 | 0 comments on Hacker News. https://ift.tt/RCqZUVA Previously, twitterviewer.net, which had some annoying ads, was seemingly the only website of this type left. But now twitterwebviewer is back. It doesn't have anywhere close to as many ads as twitterviewer does. I don't know exactly when twitterwebviewer came back online. The owner of the website didn't announce on here or Reddit or seemingly anywhere else that he had restored the website, and I discovered the website was back a few hours ago by accident when I was doing a google search to get to the similarly named twitterviewer. So now, even if you don't like all of twitterviewer's ads, there is an option to read Twitter without an account.

New ask Hacker News story: Are there any more startups with real technical challenges?

Are there any more startups with real technical challenges? 2 by artifix | 4 comments on Hacker News. I'm a technologist with 25+ years of hands-on experience across all IT roles and hundreds of technologies. I've done it all: from startups to Fortune 500s, from desktop applications to global distributed systems to AI dark factory harnesses. But I'm bored. I want to work with a startup who's taking on real challenges, challenges that require the kind of engineering expertise that gave us the microprocessor revolution and the real birth of Silicon Valley. Yes, everyone is talking about AI. Sure, in the right hands, with the right ring-fencing, AI is great, and there are plenty of great startup ideas around AI. At the same time, there is a lot of disinformation. The risk is that many of these startups will fail because they lack the serious engineering needed to use AI to its maximum potential. But I'm looking for something else. Do you have something that shifts t...

New ask Hacker News story: Tell HN: Remember to migrate away from .name domain

Tell HN: Remember to migrate away from .name domain 6 by nikanj | 5 comments on Hacker News. If you have a third.level.name domain, it'll get permanently expunged next year. Have you successfully taken steps to migrate away? Did you move to a standard .com domain, or are you taking your chances with another .tld? Personally, I'm stuck in Microsoft hell because Azure admin emails cannot be changed and support is both uncaring and powerless.

New ask Hacker News story: Domain Health

Domain Health 3 by anjalibery | 0 comments on Hacker News. We have WorkOS and are sending out activation emails for our beta product. They activation email (with the link) ends up in spam. We've tried so many different combos (plain text vs. html, vs. no hyperlink), and it seems like anything with a link is getting bounced. I'm worried about our domain health and curious if there's a better way to diagnose the problem

New ask Hacker News story: Tell HN: ChatGPT on macOS grants local computer access to cloud account

Tell HN: ChatGPT on macOS grants local computer access to cloud account 4 by lxgr | 0 comments on Hacker News. I recently started a conversation on ChatGPT for macOS in "Work" mode with the "In the Cloud" execution option enabled. I was expecting this to run on a cloud VM, just like "Work" conversations started on chatgpt.com When I continued it in the browser (e.g. via right clicking it on macOS and then selecting "Open on chatgpt.com"), I was pretty shocked to learn that it actually had (and still has) access to my local file system. I could just prompt it to list files in my home directory, in /Applications etc. I never have opted into this behavior in the macOS app, nor does there seem to be any way to deactivate it. It's somewhat documented for enterprise accounts [1], and it can be deactivated for those in the admin panel, but this seems like the wrong place: Why should this be possible to activate remotely? Can anybody confirm this ...

New ask Hacker News story: JNISleuth-MCP – Recover Stripped JNI Bindings and Ollvm Branches for Ghidra/Ida

JNISleuth-MCP – Recover Stripped JNI Bindings and Ollvm Branches for Ghidra/Ida 2 by akdapunk | 0 comments on Hacker News. Hi HN, I’m a security engineer focused on Android anti-malware and reverse engineering. When reversing hardened Android apps or wild malware, one of the most tedious parts is crossing the Java-to-Native (JNI) boundary when `.so` binaries are stripped, methods are bound dynamically via `RegisterNatives` inside an OLLVM-flattened `JNI_OnLoad`, and `JNIEnv ` vtable calls decompile as raw pointer offsets like `(*(code *)( param_1 + 0x548))`. I built JNISleuth-MCP to automate that workflow: 1. It parses multi-DEX APKs for `native` declarations and sweeps `.rodata` / `.data.rel.ro` (or section-header-stripped `PT_LOAD` segments) for `(char* name, char* sig, void* fnPtr)` triplets. 2. It statically resolves ARM64 OLLVM `CSEL` + `BR X8` indirect branches and `.rodata` jump tables in `JNI_OnLoad` (and can patch them in-place with direct `B.cond` / `B` instructions). 3. F...

New ask Hacker News story: Ask HN: Anyone using Jev / other decision models? What for?

Ask HN: Anyone using Jev / other decision models? What for? 2 by simonw | 1 comments on Hacker News. The decision model / System One model pattern was pioneered by Jev a month ago. Since then OpenAI shipped their version and ther have been dozens of open weight implementations too. Are you using any of these in production yet? If so, what are you using them for?
