      How many web developers understand that a low-end integrated GPU on a laptop can draw full 4k screens of pixels at 3000 frames per second?

      Honest question, what if you need clip by path (aka border-radius + overflow: hidden) + 0.9 opacity + box shadow + let's say blur on hover + transition of all of that. Suddenly it's really hard to do even 60fps, or is there a simple way?

      Box shadow and blur are peanuts, this is what computers are capable of:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jEBDNLNEUgU …

      It continually amazes me how peoples' brains don't connect these. Okay, web people don't know how to make games, but they surely have at least seen footage of these games and know they run on the same computers. How do they think all those pixels end up on the screen?

      Do they think it is somehow possible to do Call of Duty Warzone on a computer that is too slow to marshal input to some rectangles? Just what is going on inside peoples' brains?

          I'm reminded of Hugh Ross, the astrophysicist that was also a young-Earth creationist. Two things in the brain that are completely contradictory, yet unchallenged

          It's because games are special. That way you can avoid thinking about how they can do this.

          I am reminded of trying to persuade people *inside Intel* that AVX512 was a viable path to competing with GPUs. "Oh no GPUs are special and have magic sauce" no no no stop this it's all just physics and tradeoffs.
