The code is copypastable into the program Golly, which can run it much faster than Javascript.
The reason that this is great, is that it is awesome to try to mess with such patterns in life, by breaking something in one location by locally altering a few pixels and seeing how the failure slowly spreads throughout the whole mechanism.
Hashlife in javascript starts hicking up on that, Golly can simulate it at very watchable speed :)
