In plain words

ForensicDbg is a post-mortem debugger designed for analyzing native Windows x64/x86 crashes. It enables developers and system administrators to examine crash dumps and investigate the causes of application failures without requiring live debugging sessions. The tool modernizes the crash debugging workflow for Windows environments, making it easier to diagnose and resolve issues in compiled applications.

    A web debugger an ex-Cloudflare team has been working on for 4 years2024 · ▲886

    Hey HN, I wanted to show you a product a small team and I have been working on for 4 years. https://jam.dev It’s called Jam and it prevents product managers (like I used to be) from being able to create vague and un-reproducible bug tickets (like I used to create). It’s actually really hard as a non-engineer to file useful bug tickets for engineers. Like, sometimes I thought I included a screenshot, but the important information the engineer needed was what was actually right outside the boundary of the screenshot I took. Or I'd write that something "didn't work" but the engineer…

    Debugging a crash can sometimes feel like a noir detective story: following faint clues, chasing red herrings, and eventually hitting the moment where the whole case finally makes sense. I leaned into that idea and built Fatal Core Dump, a small game where the investigation is real crash debugging. The game gives you a Linux binary, its core dump, a source file, and some logs. You solve the mystery by debugging it. The premise: an engineer dies when an airlock on an asteroid mining station opens unexpectedly. Your job is to determine whether it was a simple software bug or something more…

    Hey! We are presenting CodeTracer - a user-friendly time-traveling debugger designed to support a wide range of programming languages: https://github.com/metacraft-labs/codetracer?tab=readme-ov-f... CodeTracer records the execution of a program into a sharable self-contained trace file. You can load the produced trace files in a GUI environment that allows you to move forward and backward through the execution and to examine the history of all memory locations. They say a picture is worth a thousand words — well, a video is even better! Watch the demo below to see…
