Captured my back button, wasn't really chronically sorted, and was very sparse on any JS info besides a huge data dump. Probably one of the worst websites I ever saw :(

And the spoiler buttons serving no purpose excepted preventing to read fast... obnoxious.

If you're confused as to why some of the text seems to be blurred out, you need to click on the black pill containing underlined white text for each section to un-blur the accompanying text.

Yeah, Javascript/ECMAscript history is actually very interesting, this contains barely any information.

This site is an excellent argument against the overuse of Javascript.

sorry if its annoying. I had put it there to not overwhelm with info right from the start. Seems not to work for some.

Get rid of the silent back-button capture.

Remove the buttons that show more content. (1) You're scrolling down anyway, which already limits the amount of content people can see and (2) most of the buttons don't show much additional content anyway.
