I like the ideas behind the blog post, but in practice, I do not care about design as much as I do content. Yeah, content is mostly terrible on the Internet, but the solution isn't prettier design. It's better content. And in fact, I may prefer the cold, clinical machines over this blog post design that serves to distract people from the content and make navigation harder.<p>Also, it seems hypocritical to me to decry monetization and advertising, only to then advertise a yearly subscription service after the blog post is done.
