In what way does basic functionality fail? I just tried loading the page
with Javascript disabled and it seemed fine.

Hmm. Loading https://www.python.org/download/releases/2.2/descrintro/ without javascript:

 - at the top right the "AA", "Socialize" and "Sign In" labels have menu 
dropdowns exposed below them, downless covering... something.

 - the AA menu buttons are all dysfunctional, being purely javascript; it would be better 
if the menu was styled "display=none" by default, and made visible by javascript

There are also the disappointingly common placeholder characters in various place, for example to the left of each item in the "Socialize" menu. These look like this:

<li class="tier-2 element-1" role="treeitem"><a href="http://plus.google.com/+Python";><span aria-hidden="true" class="icon-google-plus"></span>Google+</a></li>

so I'm suppose this is some failed style sheet. [...] It looks like this may NoScript blocking a font load directive. [...] Yup.
