This week we’re talking about Repetitive Strain Injuries
(RSI). Christine and Morgan tell their stories bout over-using their
wrists from programming (prodded along by an injury) and writing
academic papers respectively. We discuss what you can do to treat or
minimize the effects of these injuries then cap it off with a
discussion of RSI gloves including Morgan's
Free Soft Wear RSI glove pattern.
