Regarding Wikipedia Volunteer Response Team Ticket#2020061910008141
Benjamin Ashburn recommended I share this experience with you:
When I made this edit: 17-Jun, Convolution theorem, I did a copy/paste that inadvertently inserted "\scriptstyle \text{DFT}" in places where existing LaTex code has "\scriptstyle{\rm DFT}". Thereafter, whenever I read the article down to that addition, the browser freezes and never recovers. I can neither close it nor invoke the Windows Task Master. I can only cycle power. And if that isn't strange enough, the problem only happens if the browser window is full screen (obscuring the task manager if it is running) and if I am reading the article in the normal way... i.e. the links in the View history tab work fine (even the link to the current version!). When I added a {{hatnote}} to warn people, the problem disappeared. I saw the same behavior with two different PCs (Win 8.1 and Win 10) and two different browsers (Chrome and CCleaner). After replacing the LaTex "\scriptstyle \text{DFT}" with "\scriptstyle{\rm DFT}", the article now renders fine without the hatnote.
