Hey, thanks! Guy who wrote the article reporting in, I just registered so I can reply.
You're right, my English isn't the best (working on it, mostly through lots of reading, though I wish I had the chance to speak it more often). Either way, the story felt like an easy one to write because so many fascinating things happened in so little time. I'm glad you like it, it really means a lot. I'll make sure to jam at LD28 as well!
I highly recommend the audio edition of the Economist, available to subscribers. It's the whole damn thing, 6h+ of mp3 each week. Made my bike commute into a politics and business briefing.
