Please don't quote with code blocks. It breaks formatting by forcing horizontal scrolling, and is especially bad on mobile. Requoted: > Employee and employer state Unemployment Insurance tax rates will apply to the first $34,400 of an employee’s earnings in 2019 (up from $33,700 in 2018). For 2019, employees are subject to a 0.0425% (.000425) Workforce Development Partnership Fund tax rate. The employee Unemployment Insurance tax rate remains at 0.3825% (.003825) of taxable payroll.

The annoying thing is it’s 5 lines of css to fix in most browsers... https://css-tricks.com/snippets/css/make-pre-text-wrap/ https://css-tricks.com/snippets/css/make-pre-text-wrap/

  Yes except that breaks actual code, especially affecting mobile devices where wrapping can make it very difficult to follow.

    It doesn’t actually break code, it just wraps it on mobile devices differently. Make your window bigger (80 chars) if you want to see full lines. For mobile it’s still more readable than horizontal scrolling code.

I meant it breaks the flow of the code by inserting line breaks. > Make your window bigger (80 chars) if you want to see full lines. For mobile it’s still more readable than horizontal scrolling code. Not all code uses 80 as the standard, many use 100 instead. Regardless, it is not at all true that wrapping is more readable than horizontal scrolling. Wrapping doesn't obey the indentation of the surrounding context.

        This is a matter of opinion, you see scrolling as better on mobile and I see wrapping as far far better.

It looks fine on my mobile device (iPhone). Maybe file a bug with your device maker?
