It does look a bit like an attempt at coatracking Embrace, extend, and extinguish (EEE), since the text focuses on a non-standard term apparently used literally with the text string nothing by Microsoft (responsible for EEE), and only afterwards mentions the more standard strings, this looks a bit like somewhere between phase 2 "Extend" and ...

The relation between being-for-itself and being-in-itself is one of questioning the latter. By bringing nothingness into the world, consciousness does not annihilate the being of things, but changes its relation ...
In 2011, the Tate Museum in London presented an exhibition titled, Nothing Works: The Void, examining works that spanned over a century, including early 20th century works such as a 1918 work by the painter Kasimir Malevich, and a 1919 work by Marcel Duchamp, mid-century works by conceptual artist, Michael Asher, as well as late 20th century ...
