I&#8217;ll be euphemistic and observe that it&#8217;s suboptimal. But I don&#8217;t have time to work on tweaking and beautifying it now, so please be patient. Over time it&#8217;ll move up the stack of my priorities, and hopefully your awesome contributions to the discussion will be facilitated by a more elegant and user-friendly commenting interface by the end of January.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, I am thinking that posting &#8220;admin&#8221; messages in this space is also suboptimal. It uses space which should be allocated to real posts about science and such. If you&#8217;re in the minority of readers who actually cares enough about your blog-reading experience to gripe in the comments, I invite you to <a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/razibkhan\">subscribe to\/follow my twitter feed<\/a>, I&#8217;m gonna put &#8220;admin&#8221; related stuff there from now on. You can also send messages via twitter. Email is fine as always, but if you&#8217;re someone who I don&#8217;t recognize, there&#8217;s a non-trivial chance that you&#8217;ll stay at the bottom of the task stack and I&#8217;ll never get back to you. I have my twitter feed on my Google homepage, so I am more likely to see random direct messages (as I noted earlier, I get a non-trivial number of messages from PR people, so it isn&#8217;t unlikely that I&#8217;m forgetting emails in the &#8220;none of the above&#8221; folder).<\/p>\n<div class=\"blogger-post-footer\"><img width='1' height='1' src='https:\/\/blogger.googleusercontent.com\/tracker\/10083047-4039678591384561975?l=www.gnxp.com%2Fblog%2Findex.php' alt='' \/><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A lot of people (including paying readers! kidding!) are complaining about the new commenting format.
