Stupid anecdotal evidence here, but my experience with wrist/hand pain from computer use is that it's largely addressed by being strong. During my senior year of college, I had a lot hand pain and I also didn't go to…
Is there a good way to protect against this aside from good password hygiene at your domain registrar? I use namecheap if that is relevant--maybe there's a better/more secure registrar to move to. But I guess,…
