Yep. Scrolled into the 2100s and back into the 1800s in a few seconds, then decided to figure out which day of the week I was born, which took about three seconds. In most date pickers this would've taken O(year difference * month difference + day of month), here it took something like O(year difference + month difference + day of month).

This is the first time I see big O notation applied to user experience and it’s genius, I’ll use it in my work from now on
It doesn’t scroll on mobile safari.
It scrolls on desktop Safari, but it's super "jumpy" as you scroll. Looks like it's jumping back and forth between an old and new positions.

Otherwise, the design is really nice. Date pickers are generally pretty "meh".
