This is the opposite of where the 8 hour day/40 hour week came from. In the US, it was fought for and won by various pro labor groups and unions in the early 1900s and became part of US law under the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938.

I bought a Brother 2270DW laser printer over a decade ago, and it is still going strong.

WebKit is a rendering engine which is one of the major components of a web browser. Chrome/Chromium was released in 2008 using a modified version of WebKit as its rendering engine. Eventually in 2013 they created a fork of WebKit called Blink, which is the current rendering engine for Chrome/Chromium.

Chromium was still the base before the WebKit/Blink fork. Chrome and Chromium were released simultaneously in 2008.

I'm here. I've been spending more time on the bogleheads.org forum instead of that other site. I'd love to see more activity here.

I think you are right. This reproduced the issue for me.

I think everyone has experienced the symptoms of ADHD to some degree. The difference is the severity of the symptoms and how much they interfere with your ability to get tasks done.

I experienced the symptoms all my life but didn't get formally diagnosed until I was in graduate school and (among other things) couldn't just sit still and read an article start to finish in one go like everyone else.

When I started taking medicine for it, I couldn't believe how...easy my daily life became. It fixed symptoms I didn't even know I had. I didn't realize until that point how much I couldn't focus while driving to and from school/work, how often I interrupted others while they were speaking, all kinds of stuff.

 

(It's not a real Bogleheads community until we begin an endless argument about this.)

That's a really great idea. It makes so much sense that it seems weird that it's not already the way things are done.
