It's actually really interesting to see the thought process and programming technique of a respected dev from start to finish of a project. I'm sure I'll learn a lot, more people should do this. Going to keep it on the secondary monitor.

The iPad stream is surprisingly good. Very high quality, and makes for a great way to keep up with this while working on other things.

This is amazing. Currently there are 12000 people tuned to watch a man program live. Who would have thought that would ever happen... live streaming programming.

I have lost count of the number of things I learned. Particularly new ways of doing things.

This reminds me of the Hackontest (http://hackontest.org) (Disclaimer: I was working there for/on OpenLieroX.)

We were filmed all the 24h via webcam and all our screens were recorded also via VNC and inside the OpenExpo, one could watch us coding live.

I don't really find much records of it though but here are two videos (sadly not the VNC records):

I find it very instructive to actually watch other people coding.

I'd pay money for a 24-hour channel of various programmers, known and unknown, livestreaming. Does this exist already?

If you like this kind of things, Peepcode's Play by Play screencasts are good too.

It looks like his changes appear in the game window without rebuilding the program. Is that what everyone else is seeing? Is this a technique I should know about?

It's basically edit and continue in debug mode.

Would be interesting to have a recording of the linux kernel programmers, could release a 'Best of Code 3.1'... offering football highlights of coding :)

I wonder who would pay to watch Carmack and others code on a regular basis..
