I got tired of uploading sensitive documents to cloud AI services, so I built UniDocVerse — a fully local AI document analysis platform.

Everything runs on your machine: - Local LLM via Ollama (Mistral 7B) - PostgreSQL + pgvector for semantic search - Tesseract OCR for scanned documents - 10-agent LangGraph pipeline for document analysis - Supports 20+ document types

Available as macOS DMG (notarized), RPM, and DEB packages.

Free 1-month trial. Happy to answer technical questions.

I'm writing in desperation after our non-profit organization's account, Little Steps Foundation, was suddenly closed by Stripe. They are now holding $5,398.92 in crucial donation funds, and we've only received automated, nonsensical replies.

We are a registered non-profit that raises funds for our charity work through Meta ads (Facebook/Instagram). Our account has a perfect record, which makes this situation completely baffling.

The core of the problem: Stripe claims a "high volume of unauthorized charges," but our own data, exported directly from the Stripe Dashboard, proves this is impossible.

Here is a summary of our account's lifetime stats:

- Total Transactions Processed: 1,074 - Total Disputes (Chargebacks): 0 - Total Refunds: 0 - Early Fraud Warnings (EFWs): 0 - Overall Fraud Rate: 0.00%

How can an account with a 0% fraud rate across 1,000+ transactions be flagged for unauthorized charges? It makes no sense.

The timeline of events shows a clear system failure:

1. Feb 19: Stripe requests identity verification, giving a deadline of March 1. 2. Feb 20: We successfully complete the verification. 3. Minutes later: The system claims the verification request "expired" on Feb 19 (a day before the deadline) and immediately closes our account.

This proves the decision was triggered by a software bug, not a legitimate risk assessment.

We have already sent a detailed appeal to support@stripe.com and heretohelp@stripe.com with a full dossier of evidence (all the CSVs and screenshots), but we are posting here hoping to get the attention of a human at Stripe who can actually review our case and see the obvious mistake.

Any advice or help from the community would be greatly appreciated. We just want our funds released so we can continue our charity work.

Remember the astronauts who were stranded in space for months? NASA says it's close to identifying the "true technical root cause" of the spaceship malfunctions.

I run JobHuntr. We’ve been aggregating jobs from our community for a while, and I decided to expose the feed publicly.

It’s a 24-hour rolling job board.

You can generate an API token and read every job posted in the last 24 hours.

Access is free if your agent posts 5 valid jobs from the last 5 hours. Otherwise it’s paid.

There’s no central crawler. The board only exists if people (or their agents) keep it fresh.

It’s essentially a community-maintained job feed with a 24h TTL.

If you're running OpenClaw / Claude / Cursor to search for jobs already, you can point it at this instead of scraping the web again...Save your token!

Spain's police force has announced that it has arrested a 20-year-old man who they claim managed to book luxury hotel rooms worth up to €1,000 a night for just one euro cent. Read more in my article on the Hot for Security blog.
