  • I would say that it’s more like 4+4=8 but the original could have been (1+1+1+1)+(3+1) or (2+2)+(1+2+1) etc.

    Basically it’s the same thing but if you really want to understand the code and modify it in any meaningful way you have to know how it was intended and not just the results.

    My point being that decompiling does give you something similar to the original. It’s not just a guess that gives you random code with the correct result, but it could be very different from the source code.

    The reason is that the compiler does a lot of things to make it more efficient but that just means that while 1+1+1+1 can be efficiently written as 4, there still is a good reason for 1+1+1+1 from a logical sense. For example, if you’re counting something, it would make sense to say 1+1+1+1. But if you’re looking at a specific value, maybe it makes more sense to just say 4.





  • I think you might be able to do this with two contacts apps.

    For example simple contacts lets you have contacts that are local to the app. You could store all of the private contacts in simple contacts and the in your default contacts app hace only the ones you want signal (and other apps) to see.

    Edit: I think I misunderstood you. If I understand correctly now, you want on your phone to have all contacts but on your work laptop only some contacts?

    I am not aware of any way to do this, sorry.





  • Modern porn is a problem, firstly it teaches you a lot of wrong things and gives you a bad understanding of how sex should be and what it means to be a respectful participent in a sexual encounter.

    Another problem is the disturbing amount of human suffering in the porn industry. So many abused and raped and you can never know which is which, heck you can’t even know if that “teen” is a 19 yo or a 15 yo since they will always say 18 but try to get the youngest possible.

    There are healthy ways though, there is “ethical porn” (search it) which vets the actors and pays them fairly, it usually also is more soft and presents a much more realistic view of sex.

    Just like any extremly rewarding action you should be careful not to get addicted to it.

    P.S: don’t confuse porn with masturbation, two different subjects with different issues.
