Ask HN: Tips for learning how to type properly at a late age
Hi HN!
I'm an engineer and I've always typed very poorly since I was young. My parents tried everything to get me to learn properly when it became apparent that I was predisposed to spending a lot of my life doing it, but it was already too late. I can still hear the lizard from Mavis Beacon eating the letters as I typed them.
Now that I'm getting a little older, my hands don't appreciate this very much. In particular my right index is objecting to having to smash the spacebar every word (yes, I'm that bad).
Does anyone have any tips on how to approach a transition to typing properly (or better) in ones mid-thirties please?
