First, for some reason you guys keep writing posts and deleting them or something; I got several RSS notifications for posts that subsequently didn’t exist.
My apologies for the inconvenience and the tardy reply. One of the disappearing articles was my Parable of the Unstoppable Mad Man which I accidentally published out of order in the sequence, before Against Moral Progress. I have since reposted it.
The other four missing posts where those written by James Goulding. He decided to start his own blog and asked me if it would be ok to move his posts there, I said it would be. Looking back I now think this was a mistake on my part. You can read the articles with very minor changes there:
His site is interesting and well worth following in general. I will likely soon make an interesting links post where we will among other things share these with an explanation for why they aren’t on the site anymore.
Having more experience with the interface future mistakes are now less likely. More importantly, because of readers feedback, I’ve decided that from now on I generally won’t let people pull their old articles. Authors are still free to repost them wherever they want. I hope this addresses some of your complaints.
