Hack something on a Nintendo DS
Nintendo DS Homebrew hacking 2 years ago

You can hack your Nintendo DS using open source DS libraries, such as the ones that come with devKitPro .

The 3 hardware items you will need to do homebrew DS development are:
  1. A GBA memory card reader
  2. A memory card itself
  3. A DS Super Key cartridge to override the DS boot software to allow it boot files off the GBA memory card

There’s a ton of information online just search for DS Homebrew.

As well as keeping detailed graduate class notebooks, and work notebooks.

I want to use these notebooks to prompt me to write more articles and developer blog entries, which will help my synthesize the knowledge that I learn.

I’m also trying to maintain a smaller personal journal in a large moleskin notebook (mainly because they have an extremely cool aesthetic).

I’m trying to use the Getting Things Done methodology and maintaining another additional notebook for my @actions lists, but I find sometimes using a blank sheet of paper organized in file folders sometimes is easier when trying to capture spontaneous brain storms and action lists that will be thrown away later.
