there are another way of making programs.

Instead of using logic. You use those funny looking strings. They are also insanely fast.

How are they nondeterministic?

Why would use use them in a compiler if they aren't deterministic?

Because he learned language theory on some Pajeet website, and therefore he does not know that nondeterministic finite automata are equivalent to deterministic ones.
