Key to strange punctuation I use: “((...))” are technical notes that you can safely skip if you don’t understand; the extra parens are to emphasize the skippability. ”))(...)((” are digressions that break the narrative flow, but are actually important; the inner normal parens are to mark digression and the doubled outer reverse parens are to mark importance.
Also I wrote TLD̦R instead of TL;DR (too long; didn’t read) because on my keyboard the semicolon is a dead key that combines with space or enter to be an ordinary semicolon but combines with letters to add accents. I think making TLD̦R one character shorter is in the spirit of TL;DR.
