  • For the second part of your question, it wholly depends on your input language and keyboard layout.

    As a Norwegian user I’d rather shit in my hands and clap than using the plain us keyboard.

    Mind you Nordic QWERTY is fairly similar to most other QWERTY variants.

    As for a tool, most people I know in a professional setting are at around 75-90 wpm, and never learned touch typing specifically. They just type, a lot, and repeatedly. There are many on-line typing trainers.

    When it comes to programming, it’s not about typing quickly. Unless you’re churning out the most mindless of boilerplate it’s far more important to consider how to solve a task and why, then quickly shitting out lines of code.

    Mind you this is all based on my experience, and your mileage may vary. Best of luck!






  • That’s a matter of some debate.

    With all the various neurodivergencies and ways people are wired differently, language comprehension or barriers, not to mention physical or mental handicaps, a video might very well be easier to help someone absorb the information.

    I wholeheartedly agree it’s not for everyone, but it is certainly for someone, and the more ways available to consume and process information, the better for us all as a whole. At least when it comes to educational and unbiased content, which seems to be the intention of this YouTuber.









  • Agreed. I just block the stuff I’m not interested in viewing in my feed and move on with my day.

    There are so many better things to reserve my ire for that someone posting their softcore fursona doesn’t make the cut, sorry to say.

    If you’re gonna hate, hate productively. Now I’m off to judge someone who pronounces it jif and not gif, should the opportunity present itself.




  • Personally I’ve always found it quite antisemitic to prescribe all people of the Jewish faith the opinions of the state of Israel, and in turn hold them accountable for the states actions.

    When people say anti Zionism is equivalent antisemitism that’s what they are doing, and in turn removing all agency from people of the Jewish faith.

    I have yet to ask people who make the argument about this though, but I assume it’d be a shitstorm.



  • I get the point you’re trying to make, but as someone with multiple disabilities, both mental and physical, I can’t help but feel an icky taste in my mouth after saying “disability pride”. As if my brain damage, anxiety or cerebral palsy, to mention a few, is something to be proud of, rather than something to work on overcoming, in order to live my best life.

    Don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying one should be ashamed of ones disabilities, not acknowledge ones limitations and be comfortable with that, but to have them as an object of pride seems counter productive at best.
