Probably cool, but the website disables zooming in phones so I can't tell. I wish pages couldn't disable zooming -- that should be up to me. Does anyone know browsers that always allow zoomi (If any Jane Street blog folks read this, please fix your blog.)

Firefox on Android has an accessibility setting named "Always enable zoom".

With this feature enabled, I can zoom in on this site.

With this feature disabled, I can not zoom in on this site.

Chrome on Android has a similar accessibility setting named "Force enable zoom".

Huh interesting. Zooming works fine for me on IOS. Maybe it's only blocked on Android. If I remember I'll take a look on Monday.

I'd start with this line:

  <meta content='width=device-width, initial-scale=1, maximum-scale=1' name='viewport'/>
(I also can't zoom, android/firefox)

Second that the very first thing I did was zoom. I had no idea this was a privilege. I shall try not to take it for granted lol

Click on a picture. Zoom in all you want. Works just fine on my phone.
