pandoc - Chrome rendering MathJax equations with a trailing vertical line

Question

I am working through Andrew Ng's machine learning course on Coursera using the Octave kernel for Jupyter and of course MathJax provides the equation rendering. This thin bar appears on the right side of every equation, and only in Chrome. Any thoughts on where in the stack things might be going wrong?

Answer 1

This is a known issue caused by Chrome changing its rounding behavior. It will be fixed in the next release. See https://github.com/mathjax/MathJax/issues/1300
