Jerks on the Internet: what my first DDoS taught me

Why is the text for this article 2.5" wide in a normal browser? It makes it annoying to read :(

Was the site designed only for smart phones?

Thanks for the feedback! Will modify and enlarge the font a little bit.

The font size is fine. The width of the text block is absolutely ridiculous.

I opened the print dialog, and discovered that this short piece would take 65 pages to print. Yes, that is a sign that the width of the text block is absolutely ridiculous.

I couldn't figure out what's going on with my laptop, because the inspector short-circuited this goofy behavior. On a larger screen, I notice that the ".card-content" div has a ridiculous 150px of padding. It is nested in a ".card.blog-content-card" div, which has an atrocious 200px of margin. That in turn is nested in a ".blog-post-container.container" div, which has a merely unseemly 93px margin.

After 886px is used for white space, there's not much screen left for text. Might want to fix that?

turning off #blog-post's padding and the .blog-content-card's left & right margins makes the layout nice on a desktop.

Hello, this is a response to an earlier comment regarding Thorne/Blandford’s book. If a reading group exists by now, please let me know.
