This episode is greatly inspired by this - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QHZ48AE3TOIParaphrasing Yngwie Malmsteen…You tell me somethingthat you perceive to be truein good faithfor it is obvious to youthat I don't know"Less" you say, "is more"But how can less be more?What formof alien mathdo you practiceto make this calculation?For it makes no sense.Only more is more, you fooland one plus thatmust always beone more.If less was moreA farmer might plant less seedand grow more crops next seasonor perhaps the heat of the fire would be lessby adding more coalsSo less can never be moreUnless by lessyou mean to addanother special ingredientwhich was not there beforeIn which case,it's still more.If less was moreA fishermanmight put less bait on a hook,and expect to catch more fishor maybe then he could justthrow away the fishing line altogetherand catch more fish with his bare hands.Then again, why even have hands?He'll catch more fish if you chop his hands off.But why then keep his arms? and so on.So you see, eventually you are leftwithout even a person!This philosophycan only lead to nothingAnd we all know, of coursethat there is something,even if we're unsureof exactly what that is.So less, can never be moreOnly more is moreHow can less by fucking more? you idiots.

I want to make a show for the Fringe FestivalWith live theatre, but quite comedicIt will involve hand puppetsand some animatronicsIt's also about sustainabilitybut not too wokeI want to make a show for the Fringe Festivalabout electronic circuitswith contemporary dance.There'll be some cool video projectionsand an explosive door prizeentry is just 5 bucksI want to make this show for the Fringe Festivalwith maybe, a bit of magic and a few surprisesInstead of a rabbit coming out of a hat,it's a koala!And the audience sits in the treeswhile the performers build a fire  But I want to make this show for the Fringe Festivalwith a live bandand a sword-swallowing amputeePicture belly dancers with reptileswhile members of the audiencerecite anonymous storiesof disastrous first datesThen, I want to make this show for the Fringe FestivalA kind of, burlesque science fictionDinner will be served on vinyl recordsAnd there’s an upside-down DJand a children’s choirlive streamed, of course But I really want to make this show for the Fringe Festivalwith a naked lady covered in glitter,who makes love to a transgender sex worker,on James St,in a box made of mirrors.

If buildings could speakthey'd have much to sayabout their creaky concrete bonesand how sore they are from the weight of all the thingsthat happen inside themThey have so many belly aches from mountains of documentsstill in filing cabinetsand computer systemsand furnitureand floor coveringsand wall hangingsThey'd probably tell you about the migrainesfrom all the footstepsthrough hallwaysand talkingand shufflingand coffee brewingand business makingMaybe they'd be worried about the futureas their lungs filled up with stale airthrough dirty air conditioner filtersand old machines with noisy fansand stale cookingand breathingStill, mostly at nightthe buildings go to sleepand sometimes, they dreamdream that they could speakand for once, only in their dreamseveryone would listenand understand their important musingsif buildings could speak

This weekI failedSorry

The quantum computer is coming They're just trying to makethose little qubit things immune to interferencefrom the big worldBecause when the big world leaks inthe qubits stop workingand the solutionsare all wrongOnce they work out an answerto this problemthey'll be able to calculatebigger numbersthan we ever imaginedThe big worldIs like the real worldThe one that you and I can seeIt's just a problemThat it keeps leaking into the little oneIt makes that little qubitsound a bit likea nice dreamthat you're fighting to stay insideon the verge of waking upand when you do wake upyou may be sadbecause you can't flyyou don't have 600 million dollarsand the cat you tried putting in a boxwith some radioactive materialis still deadBut recently, they discovered something elseThose little qubit thingsDon't need to be completely isolatedfrom the big worldBecause they can correct for the errors laterBut even then,there's a problemThe quantum computercan calculateso much information that there is no computerbig enoughto test if the answer Is correctSo as you can seeit's nice to dreambut there's really no point in building a quantum computerthank you
