       | makes it difficult to read.

         | use reader mode when browsing his site.

       | Is the author here? Can you give us a toggle so we can turn off
       | the moving cursors? It's a little distracting. Reader mode isn't
       | working so well, so I deleted the element in developer tools in
       | the mean time.

       | LOL, these examples are exactly why I got out of web programming.
       | Thankfully I never had to deal with any of the modern frameworks.
       | I was getting hot flashes just scrolling through this page.
