> A few hours later another programmer came up with the prototype of a much faster terminal renderer, proving that for an experienced programmer a terminal renderer is a fun weekend project and far away from being a multiyear long research undertaking.

I read through the Github issue and can't find the prototype mentioned here. Can anyone link the PR/code if they know it please?

FWIW he wrote it on the same day @Microsoft locked the issue to prevent further posts by non-Microsoft people.

I think he just went ahead and created a completely different terminal.

Also, some background, the original raiser of the PR is Casey Muratori, of Handmade Hero fame:
