Giant Log Viewer: Instantly Browse 4TB Text Files

Tired of waiting to open massive log files? `giant-log-viewer` instantly loads text files up to 4TB with a tiny memory footprint, using only ~80MB of JVM heap memory. It supports UTF-8 and ASCII encoding, but has limitations: it doesn't handle lines longer than 1MB, emojis, or systems without a GUI; it currently only runs on Windows, macOS, and Linux. While not as feature-rich as `less`, it's perfect for quickly browsing giant logs via drag-and-drop or keyboard shortcuts. The project is open-source on GitHub, and donations are welcome to help the developer sign the executables.

UUID Equality Logic Cracker: Brute-forcing AES-256-CBC

UUID Equality Logic Cracker: Brute-forcing AES-256-CBC

A compact field-logical decryption toolkit brute-forces UUID-encrypted AES-256-CBC files using an equality-based initialization: xy = x / y. This demonstrates deterministic search within defined entropy spaces. A demo generates a UUID-encrypted file with a structured suffix. `uuid_demobreaker.py` then linearly scans UUID space, leveraging the equality as a logical 'ignition' – not a heuristic – to guide the search. The cracker doesn't guess, filter, or use probabilistic shortcuts; it defines and explores the search space directly.

Lightweight GRPO Training: No Transformers, No vLLM

This project implements a lightweight GRPO (Group Relative Policy Optimization) training framework, built almost from scratch, relying only on tokenizers and PyTorch. It improves upon the original algorithm by removing KL divergence and incorporating overlong episode filtering, enhancing training stability and GPU memory usage. The project trains the Qwen2.5-3B-Instruct model on the CountDown task, which requires generating a mathematical expression to reach a target value given a set of numbers. The model solves this by learning to generate chain-of-thought reasoning before the final answer, guided by format and answer rewards. The entire process is straightforward and reproducible, running on a single A40 GPU with minimal commands.
