Windows tip. Yes, the scroll wheel on your mouse acts like a button. It’s called the middle-click. You can middle-click on a link in a web browser and it will open the link in a new tab. You can also middle-click in any window to set your focus on the Window without interfering with what you’ve selected in it.

When two thumbs go to war
I just realized I’ve been wasting my thumb while typing. Looking down, I notice that I have two thumbs! Who knew? Anyway, the ergonomic keyboard I use often have a split spacebar.
