Incredible part about gamedev that isn't mentioned enough.
You can make something in half an hour that looks like it should've taken six months to develop.

El que estem tenint avui és digne gairebé dels Emirats Àrabs... TºC de sensació d'entre 42 i 45 ºC a gran part de Catalunya! Descomunal la xafogor que fa avui. Ara bé, és un clàssic abans de les refrescades: aquest repunt tèrmic d'avui és el preludi del canvi que tenim a tocar!
I worked at MicroProse studios from 1988-1993. I worked at id Software from 1993-1997. I worked at Ensemble Studios from 1997-2009. All three studios had amazing and talented teams.

DDR5 RAM prices are getting ridiculous.
New pricing data from Germany shows the average price of DDR5 memory has climbed to almost five times the July 2025 level, August has been worse
The increase is steep: a 32GB DDR5-6000 kit that cost around €208 in July 2025 has recently approached €1,000 in Germany.

Al matí Microsoft ha publicat el Patch Tuesday més gran de la història per solucionar 200 CVEs (molts trobats amb IA). A la tarda, l'investigador assetjant per Mircosoft, Nightmare Eclipse, publica un zero-day nou amb PoC funcional per escalar a SYSTEM en Windows 10 i 11.
El developer de la biblioteca Java jqwik ha incrustat al codi font instruccions en format de prompt injection que ordenen als agents d'IA que eliminin jqwik dels projectes on el trobin. És una protesta contra el "vibe coding" que a més il·lustra un risc real:
Why would you buy AAA games if you don't want 13 GB of skies? You demand high fidelity then whine about what it takes.
Plenty of racing games don't take that much space, and cost less than 70.
