> But, more importantly, it shows just how fantastic software is these days. How spoiled we are to carry supercomputers in our pockets. In less than 200 lines of code, I used these incredible frameworks developed by Apple to get this idiotic idea working in an evening.

- tylerhall 5y agoIndeed, I buried the lede in this post. But I wanted to have fun with such a silly idea, first.
- sdoering 5y agoI liked it. Was a great read. The buried lead up front would have spoiled the fun imho.
