Today in 1972 — PONG debuted in arcades.
A home edition followed in 1975, allowing us to burn those white bars into our TV screens. #Pong #VideoGame

Finishing up some configurable options, including field colors!
Despite the limited palette, I was able to pull this one off! #pride #pong #pico-8 #screenshotsaturday #gamedev

I’m this old. I remember when two paddles and a dot felt like the future. 🙂

I just had a flash of a core memory and it made me smile.
I remember the 1st time I played a video game. I was at my aunts house and she had 3 kids and they had a PONG console. I remember playing #PONG and how my 2 boy cousins ended up giving me a bunch of Hot Wheels race track and a bunch of cars.

e567 — Infinite Pong World Model
Photo by Valentin Ivantsov: https://www.pexels.com/photo/geometric-still-life-with-orange-and-white-balls-36151755/ Published 7 September 2026 e567 with Michael M and Andy – Stories and discussion on Xteink reader mods, PONG, mathematical innovations for dice, walled garden vs open vibe coding, World Models, AI productivity and a whole lot more! While Michael R is away, Andy and Michael M start off this episode with a follow on story to last week’s note on the Xteink reader – this time, a Pokémon game. And it seems that the folks over at the Atlantic have also picked up on this device – after recording the show, an article highlighting the virtues of the Xteink X3 was published on Sunday September 6th. Next up, the pair boot up the virtual black & white TV to talk about the video game PONG from Atari. But this is a newer version, available on Steam where PONG is a roguelike dungeon crawler with opportunities to unlock secrets, enjoy up to 4 players in multiplayer mode, and buy outfits for your intrepid paddle. Don’t know about PONG? Have a look at the YouTube video in the show notes below for an example of the gameplay from this 1972 game. Ever been frustrated when rolling dice to see who goes first in a game, and time after time, multiple players each roll a 5 on a six sided die? Well, fret no more, as there is now a set of 60 sided dice that when rolled together will mathematically ensure that only one of them is the winner! Andy and Michael then turn to AI – and a discussion on the vibe coding possibilities of Pocket’s “gizmos” within the Meta ecosystem. Creating and sharing these gizmos can be done by anyone in the Meta ecosystem, but not outside. Next up is the recent announcement by Runway – the Solaris Interface World Model – which takes the gizmo concept to an interactive visual experience, where the interface is visual. This reminded Michael of the NVIDIA Omniverse world digital twin idea. For more on the topic, have a look at the Not Boring essay linked in the notes below. After a discussion on AI driven productivity, the team takes a look at the wasteful bulldozer crawler approach for querying the Linux kernel, which is anything but productive for the CPUs serving up the git commits. Wrapping up the episode, the team looks at the 2026 Tiny Awards – and you can vote for your favorite! How would you envision using the Interface World Model?
