You composed this email at a rate of more than N.NN cps
It is generally not possible to think and type at a rate
faster than A.AA cps, and therefore you reply is likely to
incoherent, badly thought out and/or emotional.
I triggered more than one "CAPTCHA" that worked like this on websites. This is an anti-pattern. Don't do this, it's incredibly annoying. There are people who think and type faster than you expect. It all depends on the case and various factors.
- jacalata 10y agoAgreed! There are people who think before typing, for instance.
- splatcollision 10y agoOr, for example, the incredibly common use case of pasting in text from elsewhere - which mimics an incredibly prolific typing speed!
- grkvlt 10y agoHopefully it doesn't - there should not be a series of keypress events caused by a paste!
