Some questions about the site:

1) How come there's no place for a user profile? Or am I just too stupid to find it? I know there was a thread a while back to post about yourself, and I joined LW on facebook, but it would be much easier for people to see a profile when they click on someone's name.

2) What's with the default settings for what comments "float to the top" of the comment list? Not to whine or anything, but I made a comment that got modded to 11 on the last Perceptual Control theory thread, followed up on by a few other highly-modded comments, and a rather fruitful discussion that involved input from someone who had tried some of the "conclusive" demos pjeby linked to. But the thread got buried under the rest.

Userpages are in the works, supposedly.

They're on the list, but no-one's working on them at the moment. It should be pretty easy to link up the wiki user pages. Open source contributions are welcome.
