Show HN: STXT, indentation-based format with schemas and no escape charactershttps://stxt.dev

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…

‘Really helpful’: the AI bootcamps aimed at addressing UK youth unemploymenthttps://www.theguardian.com/technology/2026/sep/13/ai-bootcamps-uk-youth-unemployment-neets-preston

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.

Locating Flutter's TLS certificate verifier in a stripped libflutter.so without byte signatureshttps://www.reddit.com/r/netsec/comments/1wext06/locating_flutters_tls_certificate_verifier_in_a

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…
