It's rare to see such a well-written article, which manages to distill complex ideas into something approachable without becoming non-technical.

I've come to expect with articles like this that at a certain point, the author stops fully understanding, and switches to metaphors or analogies that ultimately fail to explain the central concept. While plenty of detail was skipped, the switch to the non-technical never came and I happily read it the whole way through.
