Yes, I know a preprocessor is involved, much like many single-element/background-image hacks and CSS-only glitch effects which translate to fifty-keyframe animations.

It's still cooler than the OP.

it's definitely shinier than the OP, but I personally think encoding a sieve of Eratosthenes in a CSS selector is cooler than encoding truth tables in a CSS selector

I was always more interested in the philosophy of mathematics than prime numbers.

Actually, I'm interested in philosophy in general, especially early Wittgenstein & Gödel.

So I'm biased.
