I'm a coder who has worn a lot of hats, from individual contributor to lead engineer to "CTO" (yes, in quotes, make of that what you will!). I've a lot to learn and hopefully some to share as well.
I have never been a particularly fast typist either. I'm only a little better, at 78 WPM, according typingtest.com. Also it made me type about an interesting fact: there are only two escalators in the US state of Wyoming. Wow!
Like most people my age (I think?) I never learned to type correctly, but developed a fast-enough guerilla typing style just by using computers a lot. Some time I'd like to try to learn to type better.
Yep. I'm 39 years old, despite the fact that the first keyboard i've ever used was actually Atari 800XL machine with this cute cassette recorder :)
You're right, I've never been taught how to type properly or how to position my fingers properly on the keyboard.
Cheers from Poland.
