We adopted a principle early on: don't load stuff until it's needed. This makes our initial page loads fast, it is less taxing on end users' machines, it uses less bandwidth. It also helps our performance scores, which in turn help our SEO.

So yeah, a lot of lazy loading. :-) There are probably some pages where we could ease up on that.
