The Readme is too technical and misses a writeup on the soul of the project: Section 1, title. Section 2, already talking about Ubuntu and dependencies. Where is section "Why?" :-) ?

It's an interesting challenge, you can improve it or make it do X,Y,Z, you can add speedrunning or competition gaming features, solving puzzles gives a sense of accomplishment, a certain small group gives you social clout, etc.

There are attempts like this https://github.com/louisgthier/decompai that are related, but not quite the same as this project.

Edit: just gave it a go, and guessing reasonable variable names works extremely well when there's partial information already available. Especially nice for things like naming all the counters and temporaries when you know what you're iterating over (so it's just boring manual and trivial work), but can also figure out the meaning of larger patterns for function names.

They are also downright superhuman at recognizing common library functions or spotting well known algorithms, even if badly mangled by compilation and decompilation.
