The Sensitivity Conjecture has been solved. What is it about?

In the paper below, Hao Huang, apparently provides a solution to the sensitivity conjecture, a mathematical problem which has been open for quite a while. Could someone provide an explanation what the problem and solution are about and why this is significant?

As an add-on to /u/Portarossa’s excellent explanation, you should read this nice write-up on it.
