I use spellcheck but hate-hate-HATE #autocomplete & Siri.
They only remind me tech is 90% based on assuming we’re stupid and further dumbing us down, the word I want so often not there if not actively avoided.
Still, there are some annoying #typing tasks where autocomplete saves effort.
So here in two posts are my 'Text Replacement' entries in IOS Settings.
No alttext as this is (I think) a visual thing, but an example is: I type 'isnt' and Text Replace offers 'isn't'.

While typing a Bible chapter of a Native North American language for MissionAssist I calculated which keyboard key I use the most.
By far it is the Backspace key!!
It gets pride of honour in being able to help me type as good as I do.
Lifting to my pint of milk to the Backspace key. Long may you guide my typing!

Published devlog 6 for Typingvania before I break my data files apart and won't be able to compile anything for the next couple of weeks https://norikitech.com/posts/typingvania-devlog-6/
When typing, remember to arch your wrists as though there is a small dog sleeping in front of your keyboard.
I'll go ahead and say it. Predictive typing is as advanced as just throwing spaghetti at a wall and seeing what sticks.
The typo in "hour” is mine. The suggestion to complete the sentence with "horseshoe” is Microsoft Outlook’s.
Even worse, I have "Check spelling as you type” and “Check grammar as you type" both turned on.
Not too bad, if I say so myself!

I started to use #VIM within #IntelliJ a while ago - thanks to @daschners. Now my brain messes with me in other editors. I am not the only one with that problem, right? How do other VIM users handle typing in other editors like browsers or mail clients? #Editors #Typing #Programming

Vous vous souvenez (enfin, surtout les personnes nées ya un bon moment) de l'epoque-ou-on -ecrivait-des-mails-sans-les-accents-cedilles-tremas-en-francais?
Il y a encore des langues qui doivent passer par des fonts spéciales qu'il faut installer pour pouvoir lire correctement et ne pas avoir des carrés ou des caractères au hasard.
Or, cela fait super longtemps que le problème n'est pas technique. Il n'est pas non plus linguistique évidemment...

Why is it so hard to type in Indigenous languages?
"The challenges to achieving universal encoding for historically-marginalized languages are no longer technical; they are bureaucratic and political".

Started learning blind typing a few weeks ago — and ended up swapping the LCtrl and CapsLock keys to reduce finger movement.

I'm trying to use mypy inside tox with tox-uv, but mypy's --install-types flag hardcodes the usage of pip. When you're using tox-uv, pip is no longer installed in the environment because uv does the heavy lifting with `uv pip install` as a faster alternative to `pip install`
Here's my attempt at making mypy more configurable so it can install types using uv:

Hi, typing friends! If you liked THE TYPING OF THE DEAD, I think you should go try the demo of BLOOD TYPERS. I just tried it for an hour and enjoyed it, even though it's in alpha or beta or something.
