I picked up a Kinesis a few month ago and it's been a life changer. I've struggled with shoulder pain since as far back as I can remember. I'd done PT, dry needling, massage, etc etc. I'd even sprung for a personal ergonomic assessment. I'm a cyclist and and keyboard jockey, so most of my waking life is spent in positions that seemed to make it worse. At times it prevented me from sleeping, doing things I enjoyed, etc. I wear a 42 jacket, so I'm not crazy wide or anything.

I'd never seen anything that suggested that split keyboards were a good solve for the shoulder pain but I'd reached that point of just throwing shit at a wall because it was that, or find a new career and hobbies. Moving my keyboard so my forearms can sit slightly wider than perpendicular to my chest has almost completely resolved the shoulder pain and the impact was almost immediate.

I can attest to that. I tried microsoft ergonomic keyboards, logitech keboards but they didn't help then i found kinesis freestyle split keyboard and since then almost all the issues are gone. prior to switching to kinesis, i also switched from kwerty to dvorak, It helped but not that much. I used to have issues with my right hand due mouse usage, so i switched from right to left hand because i am right handed and unconsciously i was using it way more then my left. you do need to complement the change with upperbody stretching.

when it comes to any kind of development experience. most of the aws products are shit. their core services, lambda, sqs, s3, step function, dynamodb, kinesis coupled with rdms works really well. i don't even know, why do people bother with amplify and all that. just use the core services with cloud formation & sam. if you need some thing more, build out some thing of your own for use case on top of these services and just get on with it.

tutors are the best when used wisely but the worst when they become necessacity. one size fit for for for all doesn't work, will never work. quality of teachers matters most than than anything.

readiness of the kid is as important as the quality of teachers, rest is just bunch of opinions

Is there a way to adapt this for the overweight?

It's not for flexibility that I can't get into a deep squat. It's because my belly and thighs don't let me compress far enough to be in a balanced position when I do. I end up being back-heavy and toppling over!

I'm working on the weight factor generally (down 30lbs this year!), but is there an adaptive way I can add this into my day to be slightly more active and receive the health benefits? Or do I just have to wait a bit?

If I squatted with my feet on a slight incline, that would tilt me forward enough not to fall backward, but would it start straining all the wrong places?

May be you can start with this. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sukhasana

This is the most basic position people use in India during sitting and eating food.

Follow up this one with the lotus pose, as it automatically stretches your back and leg muscles.

By that time, it may make it easier for you to squat.

How it all ended for princely families: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doctrine_of_lapse . Ones which lasted until 1971, were de-recognised in years prior to the emergency.

Surprisingly, Jaipur princes managed to largely regain their wealth after being stripped of it, if not actually becoming more wealthier.

This is while even the main family line of Nizam of Hyderabad barely got enough money to live properly, and some of their relatives died in abject poverty.

The last direct descendant of Mughal line famously died as a bum (Mughals had no succession rules as such, but English forced primogeniture on them in their final years.)

May be because they were closer to delhi.
