At my last job, a bunch of the older folks did not realize they had a “two spaces” habit.

It’s a clear tell.

Saw this meme and thought I’d point that out.

    I’m 35 and I learned two spaces in school growing up :shrug:

    Then later I learned it had changed so I stopped doing it. :double shrug:

      Yea 39 checking in, that’s the way I was taught to type in school as well. I never broke the habit and still do double spaces after a full stop.

      I’d honestly be more surprised that someone could tell enough to be bothered.

      31 here. I learned double first, and at some point it switched to single. I don’t remember when.
