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.

Because south carolina has always been behind on things. We had typewriters and the schools didn't get actual computers for that purpose until 1995.

I don't get it. That's why you put yeonspaces after a dot?
Ah, I see. For typewriters they taught us to use multiple spaces because it helps make sentence endings easier to read. Commas and periods are sometimes difficult to tell apart depending on the typewriter.
