Tyler grew up in Silicon Valley during the '80s and '90s, playing games like Zork and Arkanoid on early PCs. He was later captivated by Myst, SimCity, Civilization, Command & Conquer, all the shooters they call 'boomer shooters' now, and PS1 classic Bushido Blade (that's right: he had Bleem!).
If everything goes to plan, a nuclear reactor at the famous Three Mile Island power plant in Pennsylvania—the site of a major accident in the '70s—will be restarted by power company Constellation Energy to fulfill an agreement with Microsoft for carbon-free energy to power its data centers., which has remained dormant since the accident. That was TMI-Unit 2.
Both Pennsylvania politicians and the US Department of Energy have praised Constellation's plan. Dr Michael Goff, acting assistant secretary of the federal agency's Office of Nuclear Energy, said that"always-on, carbon-free nuclear energy plays an important role in the fight against climate change and meeting the country's growing energy demands."
Microsoft founder Bill Gates is also in the nuclear energy business: A company he founded in 2006, TerraPower, broke ground on a new plant in Wyoming earlier this year.
