ghidra VS digraph

Let's see what our beloved software reverse engineering framework Ghidra has to show.

Binary Ninja likewise is empty and keeps up just fine as well. It's not a coincidence that the two commercial products that are funding it are both confident enough to put their stuff online like this.

And it's no conspiracy theory or intentional sandbagging, you can see the implementation: https://github.com/decompiler-explorer/decompiler-explorer

and if anyone can improve the other tools performance we'd be happy to accept it. We reached out to the Ghidra devs: https://github.com/NationalSecurityAgency/ghidra/issues/5228 but they didn't have any silver bullets for us either.

Nice, I'll give it a closer look. My only concern so far is memory hooking (still needed for hardware registers), which on Java side was called by FilteredMemoryState [1]. In memstate.cc it looks like just the simpler MemoryState is implemented [2], and there's no equivalent to MemoryAccessFilter. But it might not be that complicated to add...

My own purpose in using it is to be able to get back to any link that I've read or have potentially wanted to read at a later point in time.

I have the same habit and wrote a web app to catalog the links I come across:

This was kind of the idea behind a side project I started a few years ago:

I definitely think crowd-sourcing and a well-conceived reputation management system that can influence results are good next areas for exploration.

> I think building search vertical that are hand-curated would be very interesting to see.

That was my inspiration behind a side project I made a few years ago — a decentralized, hand curated "search engine" [0]. Never got beyond the side project stage. But I see promise in this in the future. Eventually we'll figure out that human and moderated curation is better than the best machine learning.
