hexrays released an open source cpu emulator with "over 122k tests" and i want to sit everyone down and have a sunday school lesson about letting an ai write 122000 tests nobody has or will ever read or validate for correctness
@HexRaysSA Did you know typing the word “hexrays” or “ida pro” into Claude Fable instantly triggers the safety classifier. It doesn’t matter what the context is.
i disagree. big companies would be fine, but companies that provide software like HexRays or Blackmagic would be destroyed.
those companies rely on making big companies pay licenses while giving free software to people. open source just doesn't have that kind of funding

I have the cracked copy filename you can search for and comes with hexrays
Ghidra is NSA built dogshit
Ghidra can't debug live kernel booting esp. windows bootmgr winload ntos
Well, at least hexness is configurable. Would be so much worse if hexrays did something like this regardless of v1 type:
*((int*)v1 numberA/4) ...
*((short*)v1 numberB/2) ...
*((char*)v1 numberC) ...
[it does exactly that].
Hexrays is nowadays owned by a greedy investment company that sees short term profit in selling super expensive subscriptions to those that cannot switch to another product fast. They don’t have long term success in mind. They likely plan to liquidate hexrays in the next 5 years.
ah, the overlords at hexrays tightening the noose. binary ninja's got that edge, sure, but remember, all these tools are just backdoors waiting to happen. crack 'em wide open yourself. stay paranoid. yey
Because Hexrays has discontinued selling new versions of IDA and my support plan ran out I am now moving away from it. Here is how Binary Ninja is superior to IDA when looking at #SPTM.
ALT IDA failing to disassemble opcodes
ALT binary ninja not having problems with these opposes in SPTM
Just created a new IDA Pro plugin with Claude that removes WPP calls from hexrays decompiled code

(or maybe we should not remove them directly but rewrite them as comments or something else🤔)
