And it's not just the qualifications -- Scott Aaronson is one of the most approachable, honest, and witty science communicators of all time. You almost never see all those traits all together in popsci, even ignoring qualifications.

If there was a Scott Aaronson tier communicator for every subfield of science, the world would be a much better place. I also wouldn't have to type nearly as many comments.

Hold on a second. Scott Aaronson is popsci, as in popular science.

As for what you refer to, see the name of the journal the boy is reading in the first panel :)
