This is really interesting. I'll be sure to include these references in my next blog post on the subject. The goal of the post was to find the equation from scratch, though. As it can be seen, the constant optimization was less the spotlight of the post.

Not to mention your blog engine/site is broken. Please fix the fact that we can't click on the right scrollbar due to your fancy shmancy javascript side menu.

Put it on the left hand side, or don't overlay it over the scrollbar.

Damn #hipstercoders

The placement of any site elements on top of the scrollbar is indeed annoying. Is that a Blogspot thing, or is it due to a customization?

It's blogspots "Dynamic Views". Complete dreck. I can only assume it's the default when you create a blog nowadays as I have no idea why anybody (least of all developers) would opt into that crap.

Someone at blogspot needs a smack on the head. The site takes several seconds to load, which is absolutely ludicrous for displaying plain text, and when it finally does it's unusable as you've noted.

It's a sadly commonly used theme that also does not display anything at all if you don't enable Javascript.

Requiring tons of javascript and seconds of load time to display plaintext? Yeah, that is pretty crazy.

Everything is on default from Blogspot. I only put the Gist source code displayer and the LaTeX math javascript. If anyone is offering a new design, I would gladly take it... As long as I can concentrate on the content and not the container.
