> Many tech publications write as if they’re showing off, and you just end up feeling tired after reading them.
I like this honestly because this shows that I learned something intelligent. On the other hand, if I don't feel exhausted after reading, it is a strong sign that the article was below my intellectual capacity, i.e. I would have loved it if I could have learned more.
It's OK to keep going deeper into the material if you aren't tired yet.
Seems superficial. If a simple concept is presented in a complex way what did you actually learn?
