the thing about learning to type fast is that it means answering email becomes trivial. this is not a good thing
what's the benefit of a high wpm in programming? writing more code for the same pay at an increased rate of rsi?

If you can see the "show contact info" dropdown below, I follow you. If you want me to, ask and I'll think about it.

I can type faster than I can think (I don't think particularly fast) so it's more like I type spurts between extensive buffering - still probably not great for rsi
shorter distance between imagination and reality during exploratory work, it's honestly pretty great
like the tighter the brain-art feedback loop is the better in our view. no upper limit on that
yeah i'm just lamenting the ebb and flow of the knife edge of 'about to have RSI' mostly, even with all the other stuff
