Can't read HuffPost comments for 3 days now. ???

Since I can't read the comments, I can't post there either. I've tried searches for the answer, but nothing. When I click comments I get the message: "An error occurred, comments could not be loaded."
I've tried different browsers and it doesn't change and the same when I try on my Kindle.
Any ideas what might be happening, if it's me or if it's something to do with HuffPost?

I'm also having problems viewing some videos. Happened about the same time.

Why Google Chrome Now Uses More Memory


With over 60% market share, Chrome is the undisputed king of web browsers. A key factor behind this is Google GOOGL +1.14%’s commitment to keeping it seamlessly updated with essential fixes and optimizations, but now the company has admitted Chrome’s latest upgrade comes with an unavoidable side-effect...

In a blog post, Google has admitted the newest version of Chrome rolling out to customers worldwide is going to consume up to 13% more of your system memory. For a browser whose biggest failing has long been its excessive memory consumption (1,2,3,4,5), this is the last thing users will want. Especially those with older...

and I bet hordes of other folks are as well. Don't want to waste time, again and again, dicking around with Chrome to get it to work right

I just tried again and am getting the same error message. This should not be rocket science for HuffPost to fix this problem which has gone on for days now so I wonder if some change there is in the wind.

8. HuffPost comments are back now

for the first time since last Friday. They have changed some with a thumbs up and thumbs down for each comment. And evidently you cannot reply to a comment so I wonder why they call them "conversations"?
