No, it’s not.

I have spinal cord injury due to bad posture (sitting in front of a computer for 20+ years) that led to multiple herniated discs in my cervical spine that are pushing my spinal cord. According to my neurosurgeon it’s quite common nowadays, even in young people in their 20s.

I'm frequently thankful that I had the sense in my twenties to start using a standing desk. I hear of a lot of back problems in my mid-thirties developer cohort.

My hands get tired when I do a lot of typing (these days much more on Slack than in VSCode, sadly), but they don't hurt, and having some ergonomic notes pounded into my dumb head when I was young is probably a lot of that.
