Code blocks not rendered properly in smaller screens

[sivaraam]

I noticed an issue in which the code block in the "git log --oneline improvements" section renders badly in smaller screen. Further it also breaks the single-pagedness of the website. As a consequence, one might have to zoom in to read the post and scrolling might take you to empty space in the right. Screen shots:

• Desktop view:
  

• Mobile view (iPhone SE resolution)
  

  

  Note the scroll bar in the bottom of the page.

It would be nice to fix this by making the code blocks render in such a way that the code within the block is scrollable rather than the whole page being scrollable.

Note: Initially mentioned in #366 (comment)

Hi Kaartic, thank you for bringing up the issue - I fully support your view. Unfortunately, I fail to understand how we could change the GitHub [standard] markdown --> HTML formatting in a way that it creates scrollable boxes for code blocks. Any ideas/hints? Best regards, Markus a { cursor: text; }

Actually, I created this issue just because I didn't have any ideas about how to go about it :-).

Anyways, I was thinking this could be solved by tweaking the theme of the blog somehow.
