Ah yes, a hyperobject, a system so big for your head that you should take our word for it, but not so big as to preclude us from asking you to do so. Do these people have superhuman brains or something?

Everything is a hyperobject. The sun, the atmosphere of Jupiter, the asteroid belt, the human brain even. We don't just shut up and stop trying, we grasp what we can. And we are pretty good at it. A man references the hyperobject as the reason it's hopeless to try, and then continues to use the interplay between climate, economics, human behavior, the biome, the water cycle, and predicts concrete predictions. He must be one of those big brains that we should just shut up and listen to.
