I read Masters of Doom and I really like it, I don't know why but after a couple of pages I wanna rush to the computer and write some code.

Sometimes Silicon Valley (tv) generates the same reaction on me.

I'm on the same boat. Although I probably won't write games professionally, considering the golden time of game development was long gone, Romero and Carmack's early stories inspire me a lot.

I especially love the early story of ID, before Romero left. That was probably one if the greatest teams a technical person can be.

There are plenty of "cool" things to do today, and every few months as technology evolves a new number of "cool" things become doable. The golden age of technology is gonna be always one step ahead
