the best thing in this article is the immediate link named "I don’t want your life story; just tell me how to build it "

Haha, that was inspired by my experience of searching cooking recipes online.

Which begs the question - which cooking recipes start off with a biography of the author? Now I want to see those!

Oh, they all kind of do that. "Life story" is an exaggeration, but most recipe authors provide a lot of fluff backstory to a recipe before sharing the instructions because Google seems to favor longer content in search results. Here's a not so egregious example on a blog I follow, but it's ~8 paragraphs of fluff before they explain the recipe:
