Random fact I wish I knew before:

I went back to typing.com to practice typing numbers and actually watched the video I normally skip.

If you want to know what finger to use to type a number, just count your fingers starting with your pinky finger on your left hand. Your pointer fingers count for two numbers and you leave your thumbs out of it. Instead of 10, your last finger is a 0.

I could have avoided unnecessary frustration over the last few months if I hadn’t skipped the little intro video because I was “too advanced for that”.

And ergonomics matter way more than you think. Not just for your muscle pain, but also for your typing speed, accuracy, and endurance.
