reading these comments is weird. i interpret this page as a kind of satire of a modern pretentious analytical techie orientation that hubristically "solves" things by creating some alluringly simple model and ignoring all the ways it doesn't work. it adopts the mores and tone of a modern tech talk, and presents its idiotic results with a straight face. so its super funny. a little less funny when you have to explain it to people. people who are taking this at face value- really?
