STXT is a human-first text format for documents: indentation-based, with namespaces and schemas written in the same language. It has very few rules, no escape characters, and is designed around simplicity and readability. The goal is a language that people write naturally, and machines parse securely and reliably. Compared with XML, you keep namespaces and schemas, but without closing tags or escape characters. There is no entity expansion or external resource references either. Compared with YAML or TOML, every value is text (no Norway problem), a text block is literal, and schemas are STXT…

Hey, I made this self-hosted server called proof-of-donation, as an experimental alternative to CAPTCHA. It verifies email donation receipts using DKIM. Instead having users solve puzzles, you can gate signups on charity donations. Let me know what you think :) Comments URL: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49681679 Points: 1 # Comments: 0
Pilot project in Preston comes with apprenticeship offer for Neets at end of three-week course In a youth centre opposite Preston bus station , the UK government is trying to address two of the greatest challenges facing the national economy: AI and youth unemployment.

In a room at the recently opened Vault, a community hub in the Lancashire city, an “AI bootcamp” is under way – part of a trial in the north-west to give 16- to 24-year-olds AI training.

Criminals exploit demand for iPhone 18 Pro and foldable Duo to trick people eager to get their hands on one Apple has just launched a range of new iPhones, including a foldable handset, just as you decide it is time to replace your own ageing mobile. But you balk at the £1,199 price tag for the cheapest of the new options. Searching online for a better price with the words “cheap”, “iPhone” and “deal”, you come across a website which offers an iPhone 18 Pro for a couple of hundred pounds less than the Apple site. You pay for the new phone via a bank transfer and wait for it to ar…

Hey all! Most ONNX tooling stops at just "looking". For those of you who know about Netron, it allows you to read the graph but the moment you want to change something you're back in Python either using onnx-modifier or onnx.helper scripts. I wanted to click a node, change an attribute or rewire a connection and actually know whether the model still runs, within a web-page. This is exactly what Forma is! Simply drop an .onnx or .tflite file on the page and a full graph renders. From there you can do multiple different things (for more info have a look at the README in repo) MIT Licensed repo…

Author, and I work on the tool this came out of. Flutter bundles its own BoringSSL and never reads Android's network security config, so repackaging to trust a user CA does nothing. You have to patch ssl_crypto_x509_session_verify_cert_chain, and libflutter.so ships stripped. The usual answer is a byte signature copied from a build where someone already found it. It breaks on a new compiler, and it breaks silently: search returns nothing, the patched app installs and launches and never decrypts, which looks exactly like the app winning. Two properties come from the source rather than the comp…
