Never heard of Tommy (or at least didn't recall him). Thanks for correcting that oversight.

He's greatly under-appreciated. He designed and built Colossus (the world's first programmable electronic computer), largely with his own money, and more than anyone else was responsible for the reliable and timely breaking of the Lorenz
-German High Command - cipher during WW2.

So, how does Musk react when they fire up the beast and it declares him unnecessary ??
Re-boot, re-start.
It declares him unnecessary...
Re-boot, re-start.
It declares him unnecessary...
Re-boot, re-start.
It declares him unnecessary...
