As you have noticed, changes are afoot in the layout and appearance of the site. It’s not a change of my choosing, and I’m editing where possible. Thanks for your patience, there’s been a lot of work going on in the background to secure this site, this is part of it.
Update: for now, I’ve returned to the old format. The layout of the blog may still change in the coming days or weeks if site security requires it. (It’s complicated).
Pretty sure we’ll all survive. 🙂
Just please make sure the final product includes some crown molding and stylish throw pillows.
Oh noooooooo!! Change is so hard …
Ohhhhhhhhhh mommmaaaaaaaaaa
S’alright. Many’s the time I’ve had to re-design a web interface for (fill in the blank) during my now-happily-behind-me career. It’s always a PITA, but the effort can be worth it to re-think stuff that you haven’t thought about for a long time.
Courage!
“It’s not a change of my choosing”
Curious to know whose choice, but patient as well and with no expectations that I need be answered.
Meh…I don’t mind. It is what it is.
Would prefer solid black font
I would prefer NOT losing the dead rodent header pic
Yeah, that’s a classic.
No. That’s a gopher.
I thought it was a prairie dog.
Technically it is a Richardson’s Ground Squirrel.
Sometimes these blog tech platforms like to channel their inner Henry Ford…you can have any colour you want as long as it’s black
Testing, testing. Is there a reason my posts from yesterday disappeared?
Ok dingleberry.
Probably a Russian plot.
Just another American cowboy.
Never let a crisis go to haste.

Still a bit too white… is there a dark mode available?
Oh a the reCAPTCHA has some terrible pictures
They’re never ‘Please select every square showing amazing biologically female breasts.’

I got a message that no numbers in the name are allowed.
My message is this: it was much better before.
I think this is the best site anywhere!
You have done such a great job for us all these years. We will be patient because we know it will be great when it’s done!
Love the headlines, they are classics!
Hmmm… WordPress. Wouldn’t be my first choice if you want a secure site, but ok ..
maybe you can include some flying toasters and dancing babies. I heard those are popular…
Back to square 1?
Or… finished with identical appearance?

I appreciate the time you are putting into this site.
Thank you for all the work you and your colleagues do.
Still with ya Kate.
Its not the first revamp, guess not the last.
Thank you for all your efforts over so many years, still my go too site.
Best of luck. There’s really no good options in this space if you don’t want to be beholden to some Bezmenovite tech company. With the rise of static site generators and self-hostable comment servers you could cobble something together that’s not based on JS, PHP or Ruby but it’s not simple or for the faint of heart.
