Love the fact that my new keyboard makes me aware of my typing speed. Apparently on long tests where I have the time to get going my typing speed is 147 WPM. This assumes im not putting in any effort to max out my typing speed, however even if i do i doubt id get it too much higher.

@🎓 Dr. Freemo :jpf: 🇳🇱 I never understood the need of typing fast. Once had an employer who asked me if that would be possible since he can type faster then I do. Asked him "But can you write code without errors? Or would you be willing to pay the extra debugging time needed once it was finished?"

I've certainly never bothered to care what speed my employees can type.

But there is certainly an advantage to typing fast, you get work done faster even if typing isnt the bottleneck as you cant really do other tasks while your tying anyway.

@🎓 Dr. Freemo :jpf: 🇳🇱 In my experience that sort of work can better be passed on to someone good at it. I know, I am mostly using it for tech stuff so it is not as important at that point.
