@krassenstein Trump integrity is an oxymoron.

[Zion Leonahenahe Basque @mahal0z]

For years, Rust binaries made reversing a nightmare. Modern decompilers only support C, lacking meaningful types, constructs, and language-specific functions. Led by @34r7hm4n, we're releasing our S&P work Oxidizer, the first deep Rust decompiler, built on angr!

Interested? 🧵👇

Well worth a watch. In the age of everything being Ai generated, a real guy with real loads of knowledge sharing what he knows in an accessible way.

[Dave W Plummer @davepl1968]

malloc() is lying to you. Find out why, and how the illusion works!

[Michael Bann @bannsec]

@_RastaMouse With a handle like script kiddo, this checks out. Also you would potentially have a copyright claim at the least then.

[Michael Bann @bannsec]

@_RastaMouse You definitely gotta turn it off to watch Hulu. Annoying

Agreed. Don't you just hate it when our representatives are callous about shooting victims?

[radare @radareorg]

radare2 6.0.2 is out! 🚀
Codename: “Relephant”

Mainly a bugfix release for Android and distribution packagers, but ships few shiny new features! ✨

Interesting paper and architecture. However we should definitely be skeptical. The claims about sudoku extreme blowing away frontier models is likely exaggerated. Also that specific "benchmark" is one the authors created themselves, which is difficult to take blindly.

[Shruti @heyshrutimishra]

This paper didn’t go viral but it should have.

A tiny AI model called HRM just beat Claude 3.5 and Gemini.

It doesn’t even use tokens.

They said it was just a research preview.

But it might be the first real shot at AGI.

Here’s what really happened and why OpenAI should be worried: 🧵

@ABC Breaking news, water is wet!

[Michael Bann @bannsec]

@aaron_hotlen @mat_coyg @ABC Due process needs to apply to all. That's the whole point.

[SIGKITTEN @SIGKITTEN]

r2ai+sonnet3.7 solved it in less than 3 min, for $0.35. (Half of that time was just waiting for the 40k tpm limit to reset)
Just because you can, doesn't mean you should, guys.

@Real_RobN As with most things said by the right these days, this is incorrect and fake news. This clip is from January 2021, 4 years ago. There's no "official classification" as the DNI. https://t.co/BAB6tQtPZJ

[Frida @fridadotre]

Frida 16.7.0 is out w/ brand new APIs for observing the lifecycles of threads and modules, a profiler and multiple samplers for measuring cycles/time/etc., MemoryAccessMonitor providing access to thread ID and registers, and more 🎉

@jbarro She is accurately applying the title. She a ph.d.

@krassenstein It's OK though, it'll be like a two day war max 🤣

@DisignyDLL @chvancooten @_RastaMouse Well he's not a fascist but he's definitely not libertarian. His companies have received billions in government contracts, loans, subsidies, and tax credits. Opposite of libertarian. Not to mention musk is suspending 3 times more accounts on Twitter than before he purchased it.

[Michael Bann @bannsec]

This would literally be illegal.

U.S. Secretary of Education Linda McMahon said Friday that Pres. Trump "intends" to sign an executive order to dissolve the Department of Education — but it's still unclear when. https://t.co/kD5NFE5uc9
