Hey friends! Do you know what SDLC is, or how applications and games are actually made?

This topic is often skimmed over before people start working in a professional environment, but I think it deserves way more attention much earlier on.

I made a video explaining the process and how software is developed in real-world teams.

How would you approach hacking Prince of Persia? Reverse engineering old DOS games seems like a fun way to practice CrackMes and learn cybersecurity concepts in general.

I feel like games are one of the best ways to learn hacking. What do you think?

From finding hidden mechanics to completely rewriting the rules, the original Prince of Persia is an amazing sandbox for learning how to hack.

You can tweak the code to freeze the 60-minute timer. You can mess with the memory to give yourself massive amounts of health. You can even swap out the data to change exactly who you're fighting.

If you want to try it yourself, I put together a video showing exactly how it's done:

From inventing programming concepts to saving Apollo 11, their impact is insane.

Ada Lovelace imagined universal computation before computers existed. Grace Hopper made programming human-readable. Margaret Hamilton built the fault-tolerant software that kept astronauts alive during the Moon landing.

I made a cinematic short documentary telling their stories:
