The article discusses how the Bankruptcy Code's Genius Act grants stablecoin holders only fifth priority in an issuer's bankruptcy, contrary to the commonly held belief that they have a higher priority.

Show HN: A tiny Rust CLI tool to clean and fix messy CSV files

Hey HN! A few months back I started messing around with a Rust CLI tool to help clean up messy CSV files. College started so I had to take a break, but recently picked it back up because I really want to polish it and make it actually useful.

I’m still pretty new to Rust, so I’d love feedback from anyone who works with data, CLI tools, or just has opinions on CSV pain points.

Right now it can:

Clean and filter leads by numeric ranges or other criteria

Remove duplicates (emails, names, etc.)

Validate emails and remove invalid entries

Add tags to leads for campaigns

Sort and limit your data for targeted outreach

Export cleaned CSVs

It’s free, open source, works on Windows, and I’m very open to feedback, missing features, weird CSV edge cases, better ways to structure things, etc. Anything helps!

Thanks for taking a look!

iOS TCC Lets Hacker Feed Reach Undocumented Liverpool Service

I noticed a TCC issue in iOS 26.1 where the Hacker Feed app (com.kentoh.hackerfeed) gets access to an undocumented service called kTCCServiceLiverpool without any permission prompts.

This was observed on my iPhone 14 Pro Max, and while the exact behavior may vary on other devices or iOS versions, it clearly demonstrates a framework-level flaw. The developer isn’t doing anything wrong... this looks like a mistake in iOS itself.

A mainstream HN reader exposes a hidden TCC gap that allows trusted apps to inherit permissions to undocumented system services... #irony

Ask HN: What was the most humble living situation you had in your early days?

I currently live in a converted mail truck on the island of Kauai. I have everything I need and nothing I don't.

I feel like a warrior-monk every day as I do my morning practice (meditation, breathwork, mantra, reading while absorbing sunlight by the beach).

I feel like a 'starving artist' as I budget for healthy meals and fast at least 12 hours a day. I feel very healthy though, it's odd. I used to think I need a lot more food but really I just need high quality food.

I feel like an engineer/architect as I reverse engineer my vision of the future into very clear blueprints and schematics.

All together, I operate like a general leading an army of early adopters and gaining the support of smarter and experienced allies who have done the things I want to do in life.

I have been rejected from YC twice, once in 2017 when I was 17 and last May but I see why and it has not discouraged me. Not one bit. It only motivated me to learn more and love myself more for not giving up, being open to trying new approaches.

I'd love to hear your 'origin stories' that looked crazy to everyone else and how they ultimately shaped you into who are you today.

MAHALO :)
