The Blind Scroll
          I turned off smooth scrolling in Windows. I turned off smooth scrolling in IntelliJ. I changed the caret behavior.
          Yet, when I hit Page Down on a Markdown file, the preview pane still slides like a slow, oily cinematic transition.
          I have realized that true tech zen is not about fixing a broken software architecture. True zen is knowing when to give up. Now, I simply hit Page Down, close my eyes for two seconds until the text stops drifting, and open them.
          The animation cannot hurt you if you refuse to witness it.
