Yeah adding padding is always harmful. If the aspect ratio doesn’t match it’s not like the video breaks so just let the player deal with it. Anyone who has a problem with vertical videos isn’t going to be any happier that you added bars to it. Who is this solution for?

Similarly, I had a bug report that said “I went to lunch and when I came back it crashed”. For some reason though my manager wouldn’t pay me to go out to lunch to reproduce the issue.

At ‘o’ I was thinking “oh their right hand is shifted”. Then at ‘t’ I’m wondering if they use their right hand for ‘r’ but now they are shifted the other way. Finally it finishes at ‘w’ and now they are shifted the other way again and up a row. My conclusion is that they hover their hands above keyboard without touching and just smash down in the general direction of the keys.

The obvious answer is phone keyboard but that’s not as fun.

When I’m not paying attention sometimes one hand will get shifted and I’ll write it a whole sentence with half of the letters offset.

Success leads to stagnation; stagnation leads to failure. … Failure leads to maturity; maturity leads to success.
