Ask HN: Does anyone else press keys in wrong order for certain words everytime?

Does anyone else run two words together to make one word even though it's wrong, everytime?

One suggestion: rather than just retyping the 'th', retype the whole word 'length'.

Steve Yegge's advice for learning 'licks' was "go fast; go slow; go target pace". https://steve-yegge.blogspot.com/2008/09/programmings-dirtie...

I've noticed this a lot at my work and have narrowed down several common letter swaps to my system prioritizing one letter going first when both keys are hit at the same time. The one I run into most often is r coming before o when both are hit but it also happens with i before e or, in the instance you have noticed, g before h.

Practice typing. There is no other way. You just have an issue with accuracy and need to fix it.

In the case you mentioned, if you note, it's a case of the right hand hitting 'h' before the left is done hitting the t. Just practice typing for a bit everyday and these kind of errors will go away.

I type `git pupll` an awful lot. No idea why.
