3 minutes typing:
This is me writing a comment for this app using hardcore mode which right now I realise is having the text co clompletely blurred and it is quite hard indeed I can barely come back a word if I write a type. Although it doesnt seem to be based onmy typing speed so I guess if you are good at typing it's not as bad as if you are bad at it. Well I don't what to say more than that the interface is nice and it seem to be quite performant, I wonder what sort of tehcnology they were using to do it? Just pure JS maybe, I mean it is not that complicated but the concept is interested. I What else should I say, I wish there was a little typewriter sound but then maybe it wouldn't be nice, or actually maybe it ithere but I just cannot see it because I don't have my headfphones on me. And by see it I mean har it because of course you do not see sounds except if you are like super high. This is probably how people like Nietwszhe write and what the fuck how hard is that name to write without feedback.
- silvester23 7y agoMy 3 minutes in Hardcore mode: ok lets do ths. I have no idea what is happening or how long i can go without typing before all that i ahve typed before will be lost: I feel like im making way more mistakes than i usually do, which is weird because I usually dont have to look at what Im typing as much either. I dont know. I have basically nothing left to say. And i am scarted to lose this challenge. It seems only one minute is over so far. So we have some ways to go. Quite a while actually. Closing in on half, but not really if i look at it properly. This bprogress bar at the top is really stressing me out. I feel llike Keanu Reeves in Speed. Or Sandra Bullock. Or ... What this guys name again. The one from dumb and dumber... ah commonm you know this! Dennis Hopper is the bad guy. Ah... I cant believe I'm blanking on the name. He was in Newsroom, which was not quite as good as it was supposed to be. Actually quite a lot less -... goood? I guess. Well, anywaya. Araron Sorkin is kind of hit or miss if you think about it. For example Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip was ver y entertaining but the "high-stakes" scenarios they went for near the end of the season just didn't really work for a TV show setting. But overall I enjoyed it quite a lot I guess. Almost done!

- lifthrasiir 7y agoThis is probably the most dangerous writing application ever, removing your progress if no input is received within (probably) 10 seconds out of minutes-long session (by default 5 minutes, minimum of 3 minutes I think) and your progress is gone. Thankfully you can delete words and that does count as a progress, so you can technically possible to add and remove a word back and force to keep your precious writing ever. Of course it only means that you keep progressing, not producing a quality writing. In the hard core mode this is amplified by having your all progress being blurred out and you can only concentrate on the last word or two, meaning that you are just writing as your mind guidesf.... I accidentally removed the last word and can't remember what it was, see? This is pretty hardcore indeed. But I'm nearing the completion and I guess this is done. So, yeah, I think I like it.
- oskarth 7y agoWow I’m typing on my phone and I can’t see anything. I suppose if I don’t keep typing this will be all read I mean deleted. Oh well. Such is life. It reminds me of free writing. It is a form of free writing that is enforced I guess that’s useful. For things like writers block and what not. But what am I to say? Nice product? I guess it’s a cool proof of concept. But I don’t see myself using it. It is more like a neat little toy, almost like performance art. It is a new form of medium, where the rules are enforced onyoi. I suppose there are other such forms of modes. Does this bring with it anything u inquest and of lasting value? Or is it mostly single player entertainment? I wonder if something similar can be done for multiplayer chat. Text that mimics actual social interaction in a new way is interesting. Such as IRC and twitter. Maybe even communicating with gifs. Only time will tell what will last. Normal text yes, movies sure. I find myself speeding up more for the 3’ deadline

- DjangoReinhardt 7y ago3 min, hardcore mode (w/ proofreading): --- Hardcore mode blurs every thing you type, so you have no idea if you are writing correctly. All you have to go by is your judgement and the belief that you do not misspell your words. And even if you did, you are willing to edit it all out later. I can see the appeal of doing this for people who worry too much about what they are writing and constantly go back to edit their words and spellings. However, this is a stupid idea because going back to make minor edits allows the brain to formulate the next thought and frame it into better sentences. By vomiting everything in one flow, you are simply increasing the amount of work required in terms of editing and re-writing the incorrect parts. Not to mention the large amount of proof-reading work that will inevitably follow all your work. Does hardcore mode allow pauses? Let's see. Five potatoes to figure it out... Yes it does. Same five-potato time-limit. Ah, too many potatoes. ------- I was sweating buckets the whole time. I hate the idea of my writing vanishing, so the pressure was quite high to keep typing...
