- babby 13y agoYeah, this is my default posture. Something tells me a lot of this RSI nonsense is due to bad technique. I code, game on a standard keyboard, no issues - don't get me wrong, I've had RSI before, but it was down to technique, posture.
- T-hawk 13y agoAbsolutely. That's my natural position and I've been typing hours per day for 20 years with no signs of stress injuries at all. A good way to describe it is that the home keys are not asdf jkl; but rather more like qwdc mkp[ . I don't have any real fixed home position though, my wrists always "float" over the keyboard. Particularly the right wrist spends more time near the brackets and slashes for programming.
