document.getElementById("overlay").style.display="none";
- nwh 14y agoIt's not just the permanent "loading" overlay that makes it feel hostile. I feel genuinely uncomfortable reading that website; nothing stays still, the content is jammed in the corner and the scrolling physics have been messed with. It's somehow the epitome of claustrophobic design and interaction.
- rachelbythebay 14y agoI mechanically translate "qz.com" into "don't even look at it until I hit View->Page Style->No Style". It's still ugly, but at least the content isn't fighting for space with all of that other... what is all of that stuff, anyway? I wonder if there's a way to make that stick for all pages on a domain.

- danielweber 14y agoI could not read the page at all until I executed that. Thank you. Is the era of graceful Javascript degradation completely over?
- chimeracoder 14y ago> Is the era of graceful Javascript degradation completely over? Yes. I've noticed more and more websites using Javascript in the same way that Flash would have been used 5-10 years ago.
