SSC is heavily dependent on comments, to the point where they are arguably not even secondary any more.
Interesting.
I find the comments at SSC to be useless. I mean, there may or may not be good content in there, but it's nearly impossible to read/participate in those comments so I just don't use them or read them or look at them.
Maybe like 1 out of 10 posts, I'll find myself heading towards the comments and giving up after 5 minutes.
SSC has a very vigorous comment section, but for me at least Scott's articles are an order of magnitude more valuable than the comments.
The problem with them is that there is no sorting mechanism, so unless I have the time to read several hundred comments I must resort to things like Ctrl-F'ing for the names of certain commenters I particularly like, or going to the most recent comments and hoping that if a discussion has survived this long then it's probably going to be interesting.
