Hey! EvilZone, kulverstukas here. :D I saw it too. Library of babel is impressive, but how do it know? it just looks like it contains random shit generated randomly... yet it contains actual sentences of what I would say... it's something fantastic.

it contains all possible permutations of text up to a certain length, which includes "meaningful" strings. They are generated deterministically, that's why you can search for strings etc.
