"As with so much in mathematics, the proof started with coffee"

When I knew that the article wouldn't get straight to it, and make me dig through for the point.

Imagine there was a point to existence...

I wish we had a TL;DR easily. Those lengthy scientific/history articles are doing a good job at killing any excitement about the core ideas.

Quanta's articles are long and I don't invest the time to read every one I see, but the nature of the subject material doesn't lend itself to a TL;DR that captures what is actually interesting.

A true TL;DR might be hard, but if the author finds the morning routine of the mathematician who discovered the proof worth mentioning, it's clear they aren't even trying.
