The overall technical outline of the issue and what he did to figure it out are clear — and certainly interesting — but I am having a hard time reading the blog post. This writing style is exhausting to me. Instead of reading normally I find myself skipping more and more text to get to the bits that aren't silly jokes and internet slang. A shame, because it hides the technical insights he has.

At least he's not inserting meme-pictures every other paragraph, which seems to be thing now even in otherwise well-written material.



I guess it could be more concise, but I rather enjoyed the humor. It's not an area I'm passionate about, even though it is important, so having it interlaced with jokes (silly though they may be) was a net win for me.


Agreed, I find the actual content interesting but I probably skipped 90% of the written text.


Edgiest security blog post ever.


You haven't mastered the art of internet reading? I.e. aggressive skimming combined with ctrl/cmd-f to get to the meat and potatoes?
