Re:Show HN: Lax – Write Python to output LaTeX on Tuesday June 20, 2017 @09:45AM (#14594528)
PyLaTeX does that:

    with doc.create(Section('A section')):
        doc.append('Some regular text and some ')
        doc.append(italic('italic text. '))

FocusVision | Portland, OR | ONSITE - Full-time | Software Engineer

FocusVision is looking for a full-time software engineer in Portland with C# experience, who is also excited to learn new languages and technologies.

At FocusVision, we create applications for qualitative and quantitative market research. Our stack varies based on the application, but you will mainly use C#, Ruby, Javascript (React, Ember), MySQL, and Postgres. Experience with any of these is a plus, but C# is the only requirement.

Our interview process involves a short phone screen (30-45 minutes) and one 4-hour onsite interview.

Apply by emailing Jon at [email protected] and mention that you came from HN.

I've used Overleaf (formerly WriteLaTeX) with git before. It's especially nice that people comfortable with git can edit locally, while still having the option of editing directly in the browser.

More discussion about the possible cause in another Reddit thread: http://www.reddit.com/r/apple/comments/37e8c1/malicious_text...

I don't think it's a buffer overflow attack. Seems to be something wrong with rendering Arabic text when a message is shortened.
