That isn’t a bad language. It’s pretty simple and it serves a cool purpose, which is to convey the power of a Turing machine. Now this is a bad programming language.

I finally managed to listen to the whole talk. He makes a ton of good points. You can tell his expertise in political activism.
(I also didn’t expect that Danganronpa reference in the end of the talk. /j)

There are lots of conspiracy theories about CERN. There is also a conspiracy theory that states that some of the most powerful people in the world are actually anthropomorphic lizards (which kind of sounds like the kind of thing a furry would make up, now that I think about it).

Listening to this is as useful as listening a random person yap about the conspiracy theories they believe in. There is no new useful information to be gained. Only there’s a difference. When it’s a random person, at the worst case, they talk about them to try to convince you of said theories, for their own pleasure of convincing themselves that they are right. When it’s a billionaire like this one, at the worst case, they try to persuade everyone and their mother that what they are saying is, not just reasonable, but the absolute truth, and their PR team probably came up with it as a way to make people as likely as possible to hold billionaires accountable for the horrible shit they do. Which means that, in that supposed worst case, which would, mind you, be the most effective way for the billionaire to keep doing business as usual without interruptions, what the billionaire is saying is just a diversion tactic.
TLDR: Please stop focusing so much on what the billionaire says. They probably don’t really believe in what they’re saying. Please focus instead in the billionaire’s actions, because that’s what they probably don’t want you to do.

Thank you for the explanation. I initially didn’t understand that what was being disscussed was the moon’s brightness, as the original Facebook post didn’t mention it explicitly.
