Economics and similar, for the sleep-deprived
A subtle change has been made to the comments links, so they no longer pop up. Does this in any way help with the problem about comments not appearing on permalinked posts, readers?
Update: seemingly not
Update: Oh yeah!

Jesus fucking Christ, what happened here?
Wow, the blog looks even worse now I fucked around with the template under "New Blogger". Does that massive great Soviet-style all-caps title piss you off? It makes my eyes hurt. I think I'm gonna keep it.
There is an economic rationale for this - I am exacting a psychic cost on all my readers with this dreadful design, in order to provide a signalling equilibrium, so that my comments box will only get readers who are interested in the subject. It's like a bar that puts on a band and then sticks a cover charge on - the idea is not so much to make money off the door, as to screen out people who aren't prepared to pay five bucks.
Update: No, it was just too fucking painful for me too.Labels: there is no way I am getting onto the "tags" treadmill
