It all started when I saw three colleagues get surgery for Carpal Tunnel.
And I started to develop similar pains in my hands and wrist, so after googling and reading a lot
I decided to try dvorak.
The change was really hard 2 or 3 months but now I can say it is totally worth it my hands and wrist have never hurted me again.
As developers we have very few health risks associated with our profession. We won't get hit by a rock as in construction or rolled over by a car in repair shop.
But we still need to be vigilant of:
Obesity
Stress
RSI
Back problems
If we want to keep developing software and walking by the time we are 50 or 65. So we should take preventive measurements.
Dvorak is one of those.
