Users are psychologically primed to hate vertical scrollbars, but what happens when you remove them? Bring in the horizontal “indicators” duh… Oh you designers. ‘Tis probably wise for browsers to make that a user option and default to vertical scrollbars before scroll accessibility goes up in flames.

One way to remove multi–page transition jank is to force a permanent scrollbar. Are there any kindred spirits? Yes — there’s a kindred spirit. Overflows may disable descending position: sticky behavior. Avoid that problem with other jank removal techniques.

  overflow-y: scroll;

Spooky action.

Reality is a bonus stage in the lifecycle of jokes/memes. VanillaJS, ZeroVer, and “The Year of The Linux Desktop” are semi–serious concepts now. Makes me lol. This is the case for everything — including politics.

Rumor has it that a certain country’s political discourse is actively “memed” by anonymous forums on the Internet. That’s some Serial Experiments Lain type spookiness — funny, until it becomes utterly terrifying.

A lot of websites dump the entire feed — that’s nice. Ideally for bandwidth efficiency, combine multiple delivery strategies.

1. A partial content feed (Atom preferred) limited to the last 3/5/10 posts for quick queries.

2. A full content RSS feed of a similar limit for fresh content.

3. A hidden/unlisted feed for dumping all content (mirror).

Alternatively, just implement atom’s collection partial lists for feed pagination. If your post bandwidth (size/frequency) is low, then pretend you didn’t see this — be lazy and optimize later.
