I remember getting to the midpoint and thinking "Man, all of these PowerPC-isms really takes me back to the Wii modding days!". Imagine my face when I read this line: "m1n1 traces its past to mini, which is a minimal environment that I wrote for the Nintendo Wii’s security CPU". As if there was any doubt: Hardware reverse engineers are a very special breed of dedicated people. There aren't many of them, but those that are around tend to stay around! |

The other guy in the talk [1] is the late Ben 'bushing' Byer. I only knew him from his online work, but it's still very sad that he passed away in 2016 [2]. I'm sure if he was still alive, he'd also continue to be doing great reverse engineering work!
