Ask HN: How did you learn to touch type as a programmer?
I've done some typing courses to get to grips with the main keyboard, but I still often make mistakes when programming and using e.g. curly braces and parentheses. Moreover, I have an 82" wingspan and big hands which make things even more awkward.
I want to get to the point where typing is so effortless and mistake-free that it doesn't interrupt my thought process.
Not sure if this an ergonomic issue or just a case of practice, practice, practice.
Is there anything anyone did to master touch typing beyond just standard practice? (esp. tall and lanky people)
