Picture this: a decompiler that performs a perfect 1:1 conversion of machine code back into source code that is identical to the code from which the converted software was compiled. That would be a gift for modders of games and applications, and for privacy-concerned individuals who want maximum transparency, but the courts may not like it under our current precedent.

It would be great to have some decompiled old games (GBA, SNES, N64) compiled to run inside an iPhone app.

I don't know the implications in terms of power usage versus an emulator, but I believe some gains would be massive.

Очередной CrackMe или Как я мучался с Ghidra. Мануал для новичков

Коротко о себе: я не гуру реверса, я не какой-нибудь профи с 20 летним стажем, я такой же обычный человек как и вы, я тоже запинался и не понимал как вы некоторое время назад. Я нахожусь на Linux Mint...

The Microstructure of Wealth Transfer in Prediction Markets

Slot machines on the Las Vegas Strip return about 93 cents on the dollar. This is widely considered some of the worst odds in gambling. Yet on Kalshi, a CFTC-regulated prediction market, traders have wagered vast sums on longshot contracts with historical returns as low as 43 cents on the dollar. Thousands of participants are voluntarily accepting expected values far lower than a casino slot machine to bet on their convictions.

Either way, the decompilation is available on GitHub to build for either platform. Apparatus fans rejoice, things are finally looking up again.

So today I got the Apparatus decomp to run on desktop after splitting up the codebase into an Android-specific project and a common project, and then brought in some code from my previous desktop port attempt putting that into a new desktop project.

It works much better than my previous attempt! Sandbox works, you can play through challenge levels and such. Absolutely spectacular seeing it running natively on desktop like this.

Today I gave another go at doing a decompilation of Apparatus. My previous attempt was almost five years ago now and didn't go particularly well, but now I feel like I am much more experienced.

After some quick fixing of decompilation quirks I managed to get it to rebuild, and after some more work I managed to get dialogs to work, levels to load and objects to render! There are still some issues remaining however, most glaring issue being some GUI elements not being drawn, but this is already way further than the last attempt.
