@anon_opin Questionable assumption* (survivorship bias https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-23988352). However, it would be amusing to see right-handers trying to be left-handers for the "benefits"

* However, "left-handed men were almost twice as likely to die in war as their right-handed contemporaries... because weapons and other equipment was designed for the right-handed" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Handedness#Mortality_rates_in_combat

Do left-handed people really die young?

A paper in the influential scientific journal Nature 25 years ago suggested that left-handed people die younger than right-handed people - but the research was flawed.

Designing Better UX For Left-Handed People — Smashing Magazine

Today, roughly 10% of people are left-handed. Yet most products — digital and physical — aren’t designed with it in mind. Let’s change that. More design patterns in Smart Interface Design Patterns, a **friendly video course on UX** and design patterns by Vitaly.

It’s hard to get a good expressive check mark ✅ (standard left to right style) if you’re left handed. The wrist can’t flip with joy and purpose of achievement moving to the right. It comes out sort of stilted and tight. No “Ha! Take *that* to do list!” feeling. Try it in the air - see what I mean?

I switched to checking things off with a mark from right to left and it’s a huge difference. #BeWhoYouAre

I have been told that my creativity is linked to my being left-handed, but I'm not. I write with my left, but I'm right-handed for everything else.
The bigger point here is that the link between left handedness and creativity is not real.

Researchers say belief that lefties are more creative doesn’t add up

Scouring more than a century of studies that explored links between handedness and creativity, new Cornell University research finds the widespread belief that lefties are more creative is not actually true.

Are Left-Handed People Really More Creative?

We associate left-handedness with intelligence, out-of-the-box thinking, and artistic talent. But are these flattering generalizations backed up by science?

LEFTY IN A RIGHT HANDED WORLD

When you were in school, you may have noticed that left-handed students had some difficulties in class. One of the first obstacles could have been the desks. While you may have had complete desktop…

Ich bin ein zwangafter Wuchstabenverbechsler.
Muss irgendwas mit dem #Wetware Chaos bei der Neuverdrahtung durch die äh... bruteforce Umerziehung vom Links- zum Rechtshänder zu tun haben, long time ago. Das geht ganz ohne Überlegen, in Echtzeit 😉
Any way: Meine Lieben überhören es meist, auch mal Augenrollen, ab und an auch ein anerkennendes Lachen.

Mein absoluter Hit derzeit:
