Insanely cool demo. I’m amazed I can open this and it run at 60fps within a ~~second~~ on my iPhone. Crazy the power that I have with it, when it spends most of its time in my pocket or playing music.

I wish we could show some of the early computer engineers some of this kind of thing.

I often fantasize about this, just knowing even what 10-year-old me would have thought about it.


The 80s is the perfect sweet spot for my go-back-in-time-and-share-modern-tech fantasies. It's recent enough for people to know about computers but just barely enough that they'd be absolutely blown away.


I’m curious, how can you tell it runs at 60fps? Is there some debugging that can be turned on?


They would be amazed by what is possible and appalled by the things we do with all that power.


It crashed the browser or the os on my iPad. I was back to login screen.


most of early computer engineers are alive and doing well
