For me it’s calculating. Too many people put math into their search engines and not their calculator.

    I also do this. But I do not necessarily think it as a bad thing.

    I do not need to finish the book in one sitting, it’s fine to wander, I usually just just went on a tangent on a relevant topic though. Reading for an hour is fine, as is a 5 minute session.

    Maybe immersing myself reading books just not that fun for me. But I can sit for hours studying music even without touching my instruments, just reading the chart and analysing the harmony and what not. I think reading like any other skill, needs training and I just haven’t give it enough time.

    I’m a late millennial, and like it or not I’m used to being able to access relevant context and information with just a click (like Wiki).
