    You obviously include a busy loop in JavaScript that takes exponentially more time each year. Then every few years you change the base year

      Just make sure the exponential growth is faster than Moore’s law, or they might never notice it.

        Moore’s law has stalled for years now. Single thread performance is still going up but taking around 1 decade to double.

          That’s not what Moore’s law is, that’s one of the (former) effects of it. Moore’s law is about transistor density, and its increase remains roughly constant.
