You’re going to have to take my word for it, not much incentive for me to go through all of that to sate your doubts.

- lmilcin 6y agoLet's do some calculation. 120-140WPM = 600-700 characters per minute or about 10-12 characters per second. Even in ideal situation where consecutive characters fall are alternating between left and right hand, that gives 5-6 characters PER SECOND for a single finger to type. This guy does it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c9psfOxJysw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c9psfOxJysw But it does not look comfortable or effortless at all. Add to it that you have to look at the keyboard instead of comfortably focus on the screen, you are straining your hands, your eyes and your neck. So you still loose. It is a gimmick, there is no way you can work like this hour after hour, day after day, year after year. Most likely this is some kind top speed you can technically reach, but you will not be able to sustain.
- franklyt 6y agoYour calculations are pretty fast and loose and involve heavy-weight assumptions. I don’t look at the keyboard to type with two fingers (and my thumb, technically). I can probably sustain 120 effortlessly. 130-140 if I’m comfortable. I’ve been doing it for nearly two decades and haven’t had a problem.
- lmilcin 6y agoHow my calculations are loose if it is the numbers you have stated in your post? The rest is just a consequence.
