Should I go? All these years I've been a Quake fan and I've never gone. Not to mention its only a four hour drive down to Dallas. Anyone planning on going?

QuakeCon is still going after 14 years?
can't wait for Notch's speech at MineCon 2023 when he tells everyone that the next version will have mermaid squid jockeys and another type of wood block, and that the mod API is coming real soon

I don't know. I might as well go. I've got some vacation days to burn, and could spend the weekend in Dallas...

You should go at least once. Saturday night finals in the main auditorium is pretty cool. Lots of giveaways and stuff going on all weekend, so be sure to look at the schedule to know where to be and when to be there.

“The Physics of Light and Rendering”
Learn how light behaves in the real world, and the approximations and compromises that are involved in simulating the behavior with computers. This lecture will be geared towards those interested in the interactions of light in the world and how computer software simulates it.
I've always been fascinated by this subject, so interesting to hear a good 3 hour lecture by one of the industry's best... in addition to his normal 3 hour lecture on rendering, game development trends, and rockets. He needs to start a YouTube channel and just do hour long segments all the time.
