When discussing Conway's Game of Life, I always like to provide the APL version of the code. For contrast with the language that is being presented, in this case in contrast with JavaScript (and HTML and CSS).

I haven't used APL before and it does look interesting indeed. Thank you for sharing this implementation! An interesting video you might like is Dr. Conway talking about the Game of Life himself, over at Numberphile. He said he used to even hate it, because he didn't find it all too interesting and it was overshadowing much more important things.
