Search people in Twitter in Java (Twitter4j) - search

Does anyone know a way to use Twitter4j or any other lib in order to search people in Twitter through its API? I am trying to find out if specific people have Twitter accounts.
Thanks for the help.

This should answer your question. This should help you build a basic query

This is the API for searching users in twitter:
https://api.twitter.com/1.1/users/search.json?q=UserName

How to list users who have not setup their display names in GITHUB using github api?

How to list users who have not setup their display names in GITHUB using github api ?
I have tried watching many videos on YouTube and have also gone through many docs and blogs but I didn't find anything relevant to it.
I have also seen github api official docs and I found it to be advanced for my level of understanding.
So Can you please help me here ?
Thanks
It is in the GitHub API documents. If they don't have a username/login, you can just reference the id. If that's what you want, here is the answer.
Access the API via: https://api.github.com/user/:id instead, and replace id with the id number
EDIT: That API is no longer working.
As far as I can see, you have to provide the username.
Otherwise, this may be what you are looking for.

Send Direct Message Using Instagram Official API

I have been working with Facebook API and there documentation is awesome. Now i need to use the Instagram API and there documentation is not developer friendly, I want to use the Direct message functionality using Instagram API and i am unable to find that how to do it? as i can't see it in there documentation and I have been doing research for hours but unable to find any best possible resource.
I don't even know that are they providing the "Direct message" functionality or not? After my all research i have come to know about "Instagram Private API" which provides direct messaging functionality but i don't know that are they officially using there API's for messaging. I am sure they are using a Hack for that but i don't know that for how much time hack lasts long.
Any One who can guide me would be great.
I appreciate for your time and consideration.
Please do let me know about your concerns on this.
Thanks in advance!
A Bit Late To Answer (Aug, 2022)
I have successfully cracked it by myself, after doing a lot of research on google over this topic. You can use the mentioned deep link to open Instagram Direct with some text to share from your application,
instagram://sharesheet?text={AnyTextOrLinkToShare}
Moreover, the below code should work on iOS to launch Instagram Direct (Messenger) from your app with some content
if let url = URL(string: "instagram://sharesheet?text=https://google.com/") {
UIApplication.shared.open(url, options: [:], completionHandler: nil)
}
Not sure, why did they hide this information from their official documentation but now who cares, I have achieved it with the continuous efforts of 16-18 hrs! :)

Where is the official documentation on google+ comments?

There isn't any. The Google+ Comments widget is not a public API and only officially supports use within Google's own apps (Blogger, YouTube).

Milw0rm/Packetstorm News Bot

I am making a security forum, so I would like to know if there is some forum bot that will get the newest posts from milw0rm and packetstorm and will post them in the forum ?
One friend of mine told me that there is such thing, but after some google searches i was not able to find it. Can you help me ?
Thanks in advance.
I would go with XPath on the scraping.
If the sites you described provide some form of RSS, you could use an RSS reader that's freely available on the net to add the posts to your forum.
