Let us not talk about situations where
CHAR_BIT != 8
that’s not POSIX anyway.
Yeah, let’s not talk about 20-bit one’s complement ints.
Don’t be worse than Russia. Please fix.

If
n
is smaller than the string length (as in: distance to first null byte) then you’re bound to have garbage in your return destination
Wha? N is just maximum length of string to copy. Data after dst+n is unchanged.
In retrospect null-terminated strings were a mistake, but so were many other things, at some point you just have to accept that there’s hysterical raisins everywhere.
All hail length-prefixed strings!
Meanwhile mathematicians working on cryptography: the universe will die before you get even 10% chance of cracking encryption.
Security by obscurity is no security.
Oh no. You tell them forbidden knowledge of reading manual.
strncpy becomes stringnumbercopy. You can see why short version is used.
though you can set it not to be displayed to anyone,
Is it something new? I don’t remember it being a thing.
What do you mean by passport?
In certain countries(Russia) you need passport to buy SIM card. So phone number is tied to person.
What evidence would they have to arrest people on?
Message in big group chat and phone number. Message can for example say that war is bad, and as result you will be charhed with “discreditation of army”.
Especially now that people don’t have to share phone numbers to add a contact
Phone number that tied to your passport. Yep, not sharing phone number to add a contact will magically help here.
Did Signal roll their own encryption?
Yes. Even entire new algoritgm - Double Ratchet.
People just think that providing their phone numbers makes them less private when privacy does not mean anonymity.
Yeah, people just think that providing their phone numbers makes local police able to easily find them and insert soldering iron into their rectum when privacy does not mean that that police will not easily find you for what you said on the internets. Wait, what?
which rolled their own encryption (a thing that should bever be done)
Signal is bad then?
It is not at all a private messenger and lacks any type of good moderation.
So in which direction you want it go? More private or more moderated?
You realize it is just chat except it doesn’t show your phone number to every doxxer or FSB agent?
Vostok is not west. It’s east. As easy as Yakutia.
If it’s not his bunker, he doesn’t care. Or his palace.
In other parts of the world total literacy, universal healthcare and more was made without capitalism.
USA: “Here we own nothing and are happy. Eat it commies!”
Looks like German runes
His boss wants to stay in power, Ukraine is just convenient way of doing it.
