For me, your style of writing provides a very decent balance. I'm not a scientist, nor engineer, mathematician or similar but I am a common (or garden) variety of nerd!

Quite often I will plough through papers and some of the more challenging blog posts that are linked here. A post like yours is challenging but only for the right reasons. You avoid a too "chatty" and "pally" style and present facts concisely but with a bit of context - enough to point amateurs in the right direction.
