For Love Of Code Episode #8 - Is 10x Developer a Myth

Chris and Tim discuss the Sony PS5 announcement and how that will impact how games are developed in the future. Chris shares the only reason he owned a PS was for the Blu-ray player. The guys also discussed the first super computer built by Virginia Tech using Apple. There was also a conversation about the current movement to create a "Right to Repair" laws for electronics.

The main topic is the idea of the 10x developer and does it really exist. Tim insists he's definitely one...Chris is not a believer.
