    (not such a serious question)

    What is the most absurd code trick or optimization you have seen that just blew you out of the water?

    Something that is just mind-boggling that it works or something fun which you never expected

    A few years ago I did a project where I was calculating the absolute positions of stars (using Right Ascension, Declination, GPS coordinates & Time).

    In MonoBehaviours, android devices were struggling to do roughly 300 objects (spread out over 1 second).
    With ECS, Jobs & Burst, I could do over 9000 stars in < 2ms.

    So yeah.. That kind of blew me away..
