But given the fact that probably a minority here will greatly benefit from the academic paper or the patches, I'd say the Arstechnica article is an excellent compromise.

Edit: The article is well-written IMHO, but I nearly did classify "sends scrambling" in the title as clickbait not worth opening.

That's not in HN's rules - original sources are preferred but often good reporting is the best source especially when the thing being reported has multiple sources. The goal is really quality rather originalness.

Yours seems to be an interpretation, too.
