It references Alan Turing, Fermat's Last Theorem, and Google.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_015957.jpg
This page discusses the concept of "horizontal abstraction" in computer science, explaining how it simplifies tasks but has practical limitations described by Joel Spolsky's "Law of Leaky Abstractions." It uses the TCP/IP protocol as an example of how underlying implementation details (like packet loss) can "leak" through to the user experience, and theoretically connects this impossibility of perfect abstraction to the Halting Problem.
