I expect Java would be easy-mode for the AI, they already do quite well reconstructing C++ from ghidra output in my experience from when I wanted to know what damage formula some game was using.

As a reminder; your account has been shadow-banned, it looks like you got a little unlucky in 2016.

That makes sense. Java leaves metadata in compiled code to reconstruct better.

I see. I wasn't aware. Thanks. I thought the two comments per day limit is for users with low karma. Anyway, I'm using that limit to push myself in being picky about posts to comment on and to improve the quality of comments.

Shadowbans are actually a bit more than that - your comments are invisible unless someone with a high karma threshold puts a little effort in to mark them as reasonable. People can't actually see most of your comments.

I'd recommend creating a new account. Or you could email the mods (I forget the email but it is publicly available somewhere) if the user name has sentimental value. In your case it is clear that a shadowban is inappropriate.
