No. The information is right, especially for the blind, as we out and out use keyboards. Personally, I experience pain and sometimes my fingers shake on their own. This happens mostly during the latter part of the week, as the strain of working for four or five continuous days takes its toll on the fingers. This is called RSI or Repetitive Stress Injury.

Don't eat too much you will have bad digestion. Etc. Am I an expert? A person has to survive and thus he has to work. Many a people are there who work day and night and nothing happens to them. These experts' claims are mere conjectures. These terrifying people don't have anything substantial to do and that is why they give outworn suggestions. We don't need any ghost to tell that regular working is not good and we should take rest at frequent intervals! And this applies to every work. That's why I don't care a toss for these so called cautious suggestions.
