This is a great answer. People have different learning styles.
Some mentees will also likely have a desire to impress you so they'll get good at doing things exactly how you want them to do it. This is also learning, but not the learning you want.
I had the same weird typing style but really wanted to use the split ortholinear keyboard layout due to some pain I was feeling in my forearm
Adapting to the layout was frustrating. It took me a week of standard use to not have typos. About a month to lock down the location of modifier keys and layer layouts.
Was it worth it? In my case, absolutely. The pain in my forearms disappeared. I also type "properly" on standard staggered keyboards now.
It turns out that in my case, the weird typing style was part of why I was feeling pain in my forearms in the first place.
Awesome to see how far Coursera has come. I still remember when Coursera exploded onto the scene and showed to the world there was incredible value in putting tons of good educational content online for everyone to access.
Now, online video based educational content is everywhere -- exists for all sorts of topics. Despite never needing to use it to find a new career, I'm definitely at a way better place in life.
This is likely going to lead to an error in both statically and dynamically typed languages.
In statically typed language, at least when troubleshooting it's an easy guess that the error is highly likely to be at the external boundary of your application code since the rest of it type checked.
