Thanks. I feel somewhat silly for roping off “permalink” in my mind as a tool for linking people to comments, and forgetting that the page also contains a link to the full article + all comments.
As for the other issue, it is present on my personal computer, work computer, and mobile, so it appears to be an issue with my profile in particular. It’s just the submit/link URLs giving me issues. For me, the full page reads as follows:
[missing image with description text “Error encountered”, linking back to the http://lesswrong.com page]
You have encountered an error in the code that runs Less Wrong. The site maintainers have been informed and will get to it is as soon as they can.
Let me know if there’s anything I can do to help from my end. I can create a Github account and report it there if you’d like.
That seems best, since it’d let you respond to any follow-up questions there.
This is the error message for a 500 code, which is a generic internal server error, but the fact that it’s linked to your account and not others suggests to me something went wrong with a database entry somewhere?
Would you like me to submit a third one for the “The site maintainers have been informed and will get to it is as soon as they can.” bit not being accurate? (If you/they are just busy and were in fact informed, then I don’t want to be obnoxious about it.)
If so, I’ll simply suggest that either the notification method be updated, or the text be changed to be representative of reality.

I’ll submit the 2 discussed above.
