Came across a very thin lightshaft while on a walk. Absolutely love the caustics above and below the water surface.

Looking back to a fun week at the Graphics Programming Conference, one clear pattern whenever socializing with new folks emerged, everyone was both amazed but also horrified to an extent hearing about all the realtime 3D being done in recent cars and their respective systems.
One of the most shocking things to see outside of games is people treating engines as “just a renderer” that can easily run 20 times side by side on embedded systems.
