I never bother to read the comments when I read a blog. Don't care. I get to have discussions here and on Facebook, etc. Blog comments sections are just not used by enough total people (like HN), nor enough people that I actually know (like FB), to be an interesting place to have a discussion, most of the time. And another side benefit of disabling comments is that it eliminates the need to moderate and filter out botspam for fake Rolexes and herbal supplements for "male enhancement."
