You mean why does it load instantly, pulling 100K, and not need JS and Disqus for comments? After a makeover it'll want to pull 2M+ for a short piece of text and 5M if there's a few images.

Like with HN I prefer speed and simple for a text medium over watching it assemble load on demand JPGs like we're on dialup. :)

lol you think pages in the 90s loaded instantly? No, poor design doesn't have to do with loading time. CSS load time is minimal.
