# BIL Conference An open, ad-hoc "unconference" held annually adjacent to (and named in counterpoint to) TED. Notable in this KB as the 2012 venue where [[Curtis Yarvin]] delivered the "Retire All Government Employees" speech — see [[Curtis Yarvin - RAGE plan]] — which became the source text for the [[Schedule F]] / [[DOGE Ecosystem]] purge program more than a decade later. > [!note] Stub — fill out > This page was created as a stub during learning-module generation on 2026-05-22, partly to backfill an existing wikilink in [[Curtis Yarvin - RAGE plan]]. To expand: cover the conference's history (founded 2008), the libertarian/transhumanist/seasteading adjacency, notable speakers across years, and how it served as an early platform for ideas that later mainstreamed into the tech-right. ## See Also - [[Curtis Yarvin - RAGE plan]] — the 2012 speech delivered at BIL - [[Curtis Yarvin]]
