Dev here. They actually launched a new feature to reload comments for us. We're still working on the comment thread bugs. Using the new api and changing the domain + urls made migration complicated. It was working just fine pre-launch, of course.

Looks like you guys did nice work btw, didn't mean to sound like I was ragging on you. Pulling off a publication as a single-page app is no mean feat -- it's hard to think of anyone who has pulled it off.
Yeah, no problem. :)

It't not really a single-page-app, we just load the next article via ajax. First page loads normally. I prototyped that out but quickly realized it was totally overkill for a publication like this.

This particular issue is actually related to migrating comments to the new domain & urls. We actually have to provide Disqus with legacy urls for old articles. A few got mixed up. The reloading is actually working just fine.
