palm-ignoring technology
Ok, this is a thing I never knew. So, when I type on my MacBook, the trackpad is actually ignoring any palm interactions that happen with it while in the typing process. I wondered about this, because my pinky keeps hitting the trackpad on the Microsoft keyboard, and registering the interaction, and then placing the cursor somewhere else in the text, and then I am typing mid-paragraph in the paragraph I just wrote.
