Upload filters ala Google’s ContentId. The impact will be similar to Youtube in the short term. Since Reddit is GIFs not audio it will be topical things like FIFA replays etc. The ultimate goal is to lay ground work for filtering/shado

Or another way to think about it is it’s the home row moving around. Each hand has a dynamic <x,y> offset, units being keys. It’s like JIT compilation for your typing… Instead of having AOT plan how to hit each key, with what finger,

The scan is from a book called “8 Steps to a Pain-Free Back” by Esther Gokhale which I recommend reading and makes the case for a J shaped spine (rather than S shape).

If you’re in a position to use armrests then you’re not sitting up straight. Likely leaning out on back “support” and your neck tensed up or on head “support” unless you have your monitor actually over above you. Needless to say, trying to

You need a slightly different mental map of your keyboard. I think I use the edges/shifts as a reference (Model F doesn’t have the bumps at J/F at all), but that’s just a guess.

When you bend your arms at 90° where are your palms? With proper posture/keyboard height they should be over the keyboard. If you’re sitting straight it’s natural to bring your keyboard to the edge of the desk. But if you prefer to b

The issue is the tension you create by gluing your wrists and then having to curl your fingers. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-nfwL_99pjA On Kinesis you minimize this issue but your hands are still mostly static and never

You can put everything in that list into 3 categories: 1. Fixing the problem: posture & monitor/keyboard height 2. Masking the problem: anything with the word ergonomic 3. Avoiding the problem: typing less/taking frequent (flo

Practically all ergonomic studies start from the position of compromised wrist placement and measure what angle does least damage. That’s how you end up with split “ergonomic” keyboards. This is the height you need for your monitor to not e

You’re right. I really just meant to say they are popular because of their ubiquity in gaming keyboards. That’s the biggest market for premium keyboards. You can buy all kind of pretty keycaps for them, which is what “gamers” care about.
