Matt: Nanochat & MCP

Probably the most interesting thing on the internet today is Andrej Karpathy’s nanochat, “a minimal, from scratch, full-stack training/inference pipeline of a simple ChatGPT clone in a single, dependency-minimal codebase.” 8,000 lines of beautiful code, as Simon Willison notes. If you want to understand how LLMs work, study this. Andrej is a code poet.

In hacking news, Wired has an amazing article on intercepting geostationary satellite signals.

On Friday, we turned on something cool: every WordPress.com site now supports MCP. Right now this is read-only access to your site, because the S in MCP stands for Security, but you can already start to do some cool stuff with it.
