Ask HN: How to work and program with one hand
I am a tech co-founder who today broke a finger on my left hand and will be wearing a cast for at least a month.
Does anyone have advice or tips on how to continue coding and working with one hand during this time?
- h2odragon 4y agoslowly. rig a pencil "pointer" on the cast had or make sure you're bound up so you can use at least one finger. it will be of immense help vs having to paw at things.
