Hello HN,

Long hours developer for ~8 years here. And "computer worker" for maybe 15 years.

So, as for many of you I guess; fingers, hands and wrists are indispensable and amazing tools.

Maybe like some of you as well, I sometimes get strange feelings (tickling, tingling, sometimes pain, not sure of the proper words) in my fingers, wrist, elbows, nerves. And it scares me.

Have you found good and sound exercises, habits, or things to do to prevent injuries?

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome and such scare the shit out of me!

Am I the only to be shocked? Though no I'm not surprised.

Here is the list of 548 vendors I quickly scrapped from their Data Privacy consent popup (might have missed a few): https://justpaste.it/3lna1

Just open reuters.com, wait for the Consent pop-up, click the tiny "Show vendors" at the bottom and enjoy the list. Note: my IP is in the EU, maybe you don't get the pop-up if you visit from outside the GDPR zone?

A nice and a clear reminder of how things got out of hand with the internet IMHO.
