      He uses an aisle of chips at a Walmart to store data.

      He took “Hello world”, compressed it using Huffman coding, then arranged the aisle of chips in binary. Bag of chips facing forward is a 0, facing backward is 1.

      It’s a silly video by the channel for April 1st and is purely for entertainment.

      Yeah, and also incredibly lazy in execution. He didn’t even write a FUSE filesystem driver, not to mention a standalone kernel modules. THANK U, NEXT
