That was the most dangerous link anybody ever posted to HN.
Incredible how more than 30 years later all the keystrokes are still in muscle memory. Really have to stay very far away from that website :)
With a recommendation like that, how can we not implore mattgodbolt to submit it as its own story?
Matt, please submit it if you're so inclined. :)

Haha thanks for the vote of confidence but I've already submitted it before and had some good feedback. I've written a series of articles on emulating a BBC too, which have also been submitted; my webserver felt the strain then too :)
Super stuff Matt. I was toying with the idea of doing something very much like that a few years ago but felt that the copyright issues were hairy enough that I should stay away from it. I loved the emulation articles. This is totally off-topic and I can probably find out if I go through your website but did you get mode 7 to work as well?
And of course if you want to relive the glory in your browser: http://bbc.godbolt.org/?disc=elite.ssd&autoboot
