Kudos to old Intel keyboard or similar mechanical, I really want to type on this on a regular basis but most of my work is happening on my laptop.
OK, you convinced me that touchtyping is not important when you program. But what about learning? The SICP book contains tens of kilobytes of code which needs to be typed, copypasting of code while learning just doesn't work for me. If I do not do any typos when learning a new programming language, I just do not feel it. But if I need to observe the keyboard while learning than all the learning process goes south because I do typos not because I do not know the language but because I do not know the keyboard. Nothing impossible in doing this without touchtyping but for me this is too annoying.
And there is nothing wizardy in learning how to properly press a few tens of buttons, this is not anything creative.
