I don't know if we're supposed to talk about this here or not, but some time in late 2014 the Front Page sort of half-reinvented itself and Zack Parsons also cut down his involvement without actually leaving. There are fewer articles posted to the Front Page each week, and some of the older mainstays are just gone. He still writes for Fridays now, but he also writes on that other site.

I never noticed any changes like this being announced; it just sort of happened or got rolled out without mention. SA articles seems to be getting shorter, more to-the-point, and, as far as I can tell, a bit more like what people on the Internet seem to want these days. I don't feel like I browse widely enough on today's web to say it more definitively. Parsons' longer, more involved stuff has either stopped, been moved off-site, or gone into the normal publishing world.

I'm not trying to pry here, but I've decided to stop withholding this observation.
