Horrifying half-knowledge in the explanation of annealing section:
> Annealing starts with a weak piece of metal. In such a piece, the metal’s atoms are spread unevenly: Some atoms are close enough to share magnetic bonds, but others are too far apart to bond. The gaps that are left lead to microscopic deformities and cracks, weakening the metal.
But the result is great! Beautiful algorithmic design work!
