What is up with the scrolling on that site? It's jumps to hyperspeed about 1/2 way down the fold

  It looks like they're using nicescroll[1] for "custom scrollbars". Not sure why they felt the need to re-implement scrolling on a mostly text website, but there it is. 1: http://areaaperta.com/nicescroll/ http://areaaperta.com/nicescroll/

  Yup. Absolutely horrific. I'd hope that someone inspecting some of the digital missteps the NYT has made would at least get their website right...
