That seems a bit disrespectul as a summary, even though I have to grudgingly admit that it's not wrong... It would have been nice for the article to say more about the woman, which would have mostly avoided the cliché!
- boomboomsubban 6y agoI read the biography the article draws from and it also did not mention that much about her or their relationship. It delved deeply into Dirac's childhood, but mostly ignored his home life as an adult. It makes some sense, it is a biography of Dirac, but felt strange at the time.
- mlang23 6y agoBut the whole article is a cliché! The socially incompetent techie who is rescued by love from his rationality. I dont wanna guess how many readers here secretly hope for this event to occur at some point. Like in the story, ideally they'd not even have to court the woman. She would just appear and take care of them. Cliché!
- lcuff 6y agoIt does echo a bad Nicholas Sparks novel (they're all bad). But when the cliché is writ large in real life, it's touching, no? Secretly hoping for _something_ to magically rescue us from the emotional difficulties of our lives ... of course. Likelihood of it happening: (1.0 e -42).
