Today I was inspired by an 80s movie that I had recently watched and decided, wouldn’t it be cool if I could have a screen saver of that end sequence. With Claude, I thought why not give it a shot.

This screen saver is inspired by the WOPR (War Operation Plan Response) computer that would simulate virtual nuclear wars in the 80s classic WarGames. Because surely, someone will win in the era of the Cold War when the rockets start flying right? Luckily calmer heads prevailed and we’re all here to tell about it and our experience hiding under our desks in fallout drills during elementary.

Some behind the scenes of the video.

Today I’m pleased to announce the launch of the WNBA TRMNL app. This application will show the regular season and future playoff matches for the upcoming WNBA season. You can choose to see just your favorite team or all the games from around the league.

Let me first start off by saying I for one welcome the new AI overlords.

Ok… are they gone? Did they get their treat and leave?

The podcast Hard Fork recently had on a guest that was part of the investigation into OpenAIs agents that escaped containment and hacked another company. The initial report was that it was simply trying to cheat and get the answer key. What researchers found was much crazier and complicated than that.

Tomorrow will likely be a very rough day at Meta. The rumors will become realities and many people will no longer be working there. I may be one of them. This sucks for everyone involved. The people impacted, the people fortunate enough to make it through, and the ones that will leave even after all of this as they have simply had enough. And I can’t blame them.

Unfortunately, the only constant at this company is change. When I joined we were only going to have 2, may be 3 buildings at a site. The site I used to sit at now has 12 buildings and two tents. It holds 3x the capacity of what the entire fleet was when I started. And we’ve added 26 more sites some of which will be gigawatts in size.
