It wouldn't be so cringe if they talked about the technical side too. The article says nothing about what "tiny pointers" are. Andrew Krapivin doesn't have a GitHub with any code. His paper is gated so I can't read it. Do they expect me to venerate this kid on faith? We should be celebrating developers whose work is open source, but instead the establishment relegates them to the lowly thankless role of janitors. The only reason a pop science journo would write an article about an open source developer would be not to lionize them but rather put them in their place for a code of conduct violation.
