    I'm looking for a student for an M.Sc. in Computer Science at the University of Calgary. *This is a fully funded position.*

    The project: building tools to help understand how "retro" video games were made under amazingly constrained circumstances. While it's a CS position, this is interdisciplinary work done in collaboration with archaeologists and others.

    Needs: strong coding skills, good writing abilities. Ideally: low-level, reverse engineering, or compiler experience.

    I told my wife last week that I wanted paddles and she was very confused. Then I explained what I meant by that and she was even more confused.

    Man, this is like the dongle conversation all over again.

    @a2_4am You really have to wonder who the market was at that point. School districts without funds to upgrade their computer labs...?

    On Christmas day, 2018, I jotted down a note saying "hey, I could write a book about reverse engineering this one game". And today, I'm happy to announce that it's published at last! The ebook is reasonably priced and available at all the usual locations like Amazon in addition to the publisher's site; and, there's a 50% discount code for individual orders of the print book through the publisher good until the end of April: AYCO8676.
