Most people ignore this productivity-enhancing monitor setting - here's why you shouldn't

Turning a computer monitor from a landscape position to a portrait position may seem odd at first. After all, a horizontal display allows you to see more content on-screen, plus it is a more familiar experience. However, there are certain situations where flipping your screen vertically is genuinely useful. Programmers, for example, often prefer this orientation because it lets them see more lines of code without needing to scroll. Writers, like myself, appreciate this mode, as it makes reading and creating documents easier.
