Pinchyfingers submitted this link:

(http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4642628) which goes to a Youtube video of a game of life in a single line of APL. It's a really nice description of the code too. (It's a sale pitch for dynalog - but the best kind where they're just using the tool to do something neat and not pushing their URLs at you.)



I've watched that video several times and it never occurred to me that it was a sales pitch.


That's the best kind of sales pitch. Don't sell it. Just show it. People who want it will be grateful not to have it pushed at them, and people who don't want it will watch it and share it with others, and those other people might want it.
