- artsyca 7y agoIf you're serious about typing ditch the QWERTY layout and learn something that's actually optimized for the language of your choice it's so naive to attempt mastery of a broken paradigm without ever questioning that paradigm as in the case of the broken and arbitrary key layout from 1873
- artsyca 7y agoAs a recommendation I'd suggest the typing of the dead hands down the funnest way to learn touch typing as well I recommend the DVORAK key layout because it's much more suited to touch typing as one's hands require far less travel and therefore less propensity for error

Self-taught before secondary school in about six weeks, among my best investments ever. So long as it's a QWERTY layout, publication year really doesn'y matter.
