Gonz, does your dyslexia ever get in the way of your coding, or are writing and coding completely different for you?

It's the oppersite. I have a few spelling mistakes but they're mostly consistant so that means it always matches up.
Like one that really bugged people was that I made something that I called "Percistant Sidebar", I always spell percistant that way so it always works. I try my best not to do that though as other people need to know what it means and where to find it.
My head jumps around, like I read your "nosey cunt" post before tangle's one. That is great for programing, I can see flows about how things move about. Where as latin languages are left to right, top to bottom, which means my brain jumps and sometimes I end up reading the same line or paragraph over.
so I see the following as
for ($i = 0; $i < 10; $i++) {
if ($i == 5) { echo "Hello"; } else { echo "Good Bye" }
}
I would read that as "if $i is the same as 5 then we'll put the words hello on the screen, otherwise, we'll do the words good bye. We'll do that 10 times and incriment the number each time starting from 0."

Haha, I did once want to get a magnetic implant in my little finger so I can 'feel' magnettic currents.
The idea sounds amazing but I couldn't have an MRI with it in.

It's alright, never stopped me before, and I comunicate more through the written word that voice.
It's no longer synominous with being thick.
If I had to hand-write the internet that would be a different story though.

How would one work that out? I've no idea how to get that figure on myself, let alone a population.
