A few photos of the 1:12 scale 1983 WarGames WOPR computer. This was a commission for a private collector. What is your favorite fictional computer? πŸ’Ύ

Unfortunately a simple google search would tell us that JWST actually did not "take the very first picture of a planet outside of our own solar system" and this is literally in the ad for Bard so I wouldn't trust it yet

I have invested in 170 companies. The ones that win, have the fastest feedback loops. They try lots, they fail fast, they learn faster. The ones that lose, have long feedback loops. It takes months to know if something worked. The faster you fail, the quicker you learn.
