Commenting Code: Can we stop arguing about this?
I try to dig into the strange culture claiming that nobody should comment code, and come out with some suggestions for better comments.
My conclusions might surprise you. But, y'know, probably not...

Hey I’m not sure if you aware but just wanted to let you know anyway cus I’m trying to read the link on your site but the newsletter thing on the right of your website blocks the right side of the paragraph’s text not by much but enough to make some words unreadable on safari on iOS, I tried different zoom levels and device rotations and get the same/similar results, and it’s also sort of untappable, I got it to open one time but can’t get it to do it again
Well, that's annoying. I admittedly never gave the blog much thought on mobile. Maybe that panel should just go away if the screen is below a certain size, and I could dump the text near the bottom. Or am I misunderstanding what you see?
Either way, definitely thanks. I'd prefer the thing to be readable for anybody who cares, and not get in my own way.

Good deal. I'll roll that out tomorrow morning. Thanks again, for the debugging and your kind words.
