New top story on Hacker News: Ask HN: Anyone having issues with job applicant fraud?

Ask HN: Anyone having issues with job applicant fraud? 57 by lgsilver | 68 comments In the past month we've seen a dramatic, seemingly coordinated, increase in engineering applicants whose resumés and backgrounds appear qualified, but who refuse to use their cameras during Zoom interviews and who often can't answer specific questions about their backgrounds. We've wasted a significant amount of time on comms and interviews with over a dozen of these candidates. Anyone else experiencing anything similar? on Hacker News.

New top story on Hacker News: Show HN: AutoHotkey for Linux

Show HN: AutoHotkey for Linux 148 by phil294 | 59 comments Hello HN, this is the first functional reimplementation of AutoHotkey [1] for Unix-like systems, as far as I am aware. Half the commands are still missing, but everything important is done, as I have worked a lot on it over the past two months. Converting scripts into stand alone binaries is also supported. Hope this will find some adoption eventually. :-) - This implementation focuses on v1.0-like classic syntax from 2004 (!). This is a significant subset of the popular current v1.1 syntax from Windows (AHK_L). The reason this does not (yet?) target the full Windows spec is how complex it is. Notably, there's also another ongoing project which targets v2 called KeySharp [2]. If you are not aware of what AHK is, it is an easy but capable scripting language for automation and Hotkeys, and all sorts of visual things like GUIs. If you want to learn more, there plenty of info on the repo, the docs html, and there's an acti...

New top story on Hacker News: Ask HN: Why hasn't the ACH system been more abused?

Ask HN: Why hasn't the ACH system been more abused? 67 by gernb | 97 comments IIUC, the ACH system https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automated_clearing_house Is utterly insecure. Anyone with your routing number and account number, 2 numbers printed on every check, can ask your bank for all of your money and the bank will not confirm anything with you. My first experience with this was Apple's credit card that can only be paid via ACH and I was shocked when I typed in my info into the apple wallet app and then it took my money without the bank confirming anything with me. Why hasn't this been more of a problem? Are their mitigations? These numbers can be stolen from data breaches even easier than passwords as they won't be salted and hashed, they'll be the actual numbers right? The entire payment regime in the USA seems to be switching over to ACH. Should I be worried? on Hacker News. IIUC, the ACH system https://ift.tt/jp5vdiJ Is utterly insecure. Anyone with your ro...
