This explanation gave me that feeling of how utterly incredible it is at any software works as well as it does.
The amount of work that goes into supporting, debugging, developing, improving, and designing the sheer number of ways that we do things, at literally hundreds of layers of abstractions all which are slightly wrong and each of which does things their own way with their own tradeoffs.
I'm damn glad there are people a lot smarter and more dedicated than I am that keep this stuff running so that I can store a value in localstorage in a browser and have it punch through all of those layers in a fraction of a moment down to writing bits on one of like a dozen storage mediums on any number of OSs via multiple interfaces in multiple browsers.
