Comment on Ask HN: How do I help a colleague who introduces a lot of typos?

Comments

Have you checked his physical keyboard ?

My laptop is getting old, and some keys need to be pressed with more insistence and more accurately for them to register properly. It also breaks the flow, and muscle memory for things like passwords. It also lead to letter inversions, because the tonic accent need to be put on letter which need to be pressed more, rather than on the first letter of the word. It's driving me crazy but unfortunately computer are too expensive for now (and it's probably only getting worse).
