How to read long, dense articles?

How do you read long technical articles?

  • Whenever I see long technical articles I immediately lose the interest of reading it. How can I build the habit of reading long technical/programming articles? I also fear when I see lot of mathematical proofs and theorems.

  • Answer:

    It depends upon how important the material is to you. I've read technical articles that were just as gripping as a Harry Potter novel... at least to me and only because the material was building upon a technical area I already had much interest. It doesn't pay to read a technical article if you don't have some compelling reason to do so.
