This is actually quite useful if you're doing day-to-day forensic work and are trying to de-obfuscate code or are creating proof of concepts.
The interface is really slick and it lets you create an infinite number of recipes/permutations.
String processing is much of what we do in security.
Yay for GCHQ. You'll find me at the bottom of this page due to an omission of obligatory IC bashing and Snowden fanboyism.

Any programming language with an interactive interface would work much better than this kind of web app for any day-to-day work. Of course, this is great for introducing kids to real programming.

- mmaunder 10y agoYup, totally serious.
- NetStrikeForce 10y agoMan, you had a perfectly nice comment and no one would have downvoted you (and probably no one did), but I did just because of this: > You'll find me at the bottom of this page due to an omission of obligatory IC bashing and Snowden fanboyism. There was no need, really.
- zeveb 10y agoActually, I think that there was a need. The IC in the Anglosphere does good, commendable work. I for one am glad to see that there's at least one other person on HN who appears to share my views on the IC & Snowden.
- mmaunder 10y agoAre you objecting to my opinion or that I expressed one?

- NetStrikeForce 10y agoI don't think there's IC bashing for the sake of it. At least no more than Apple bashing, Microsoft bashing, Facebook bashing, ... You get it :) There's bashing against malpractice, illegal data gathering and in general against any abuse of other people's freedom. But my comment was about the guidelines. There's no need to call that out and helps no one. You could have accomplished a better outcome just by highlighting positive stuff about the IC, like this very same set of tools. And please don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to patronize anyone here, I'm just a mere HN reader.
