First and foremost let me say that I LOVE this site. It is a fantastic resource and I view it everyday. However, one thing that is terribly annoying is the infinite scroll feature on the home page.
Why?
Not the worst problem ever, but it is a very poor user experience and it has been written about numerous times:

The big dogs do pagination for a reason - it is a better and more reliable user experience. Please take this into consideration during your next dev sprint.
Thank you and keep up the good work!
