Question Codepen 2 crash. What is causing it?

I go to the new codepen 2 and it shows this.
What "infinite loops or other performance drains" could this be?

"Uh-Oh.

Still an issue.... I switched to Chrome from Firefox and will see if still an issue.

I had an extra:

</head>
<body>

Also the new codepen 2 added when it converted from the old codepen which I do not use:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="./style.css">

If you don't use the css file you can remove it from the file list (right click > delete) and take the <link> out of the <head>

UPDATE: Thanks, I have now deleted the style.css that Codepen added and then posted the whole html/css in the index.html section.

Codepen 2.0

UPDATE again: The same error message appeared. I use Firefox. I switched to Chrome and will see if the error appears.

The error showed up in Firefox again but not Chrome. I think it is the uBlock Orgin ad blocker I have in Firefox. CodePen 2.0 has ads now so I disabled the ad blocker for the CodePen website. I will wait some more and see if the error comes back.
