It's just skimming. If you were reading a book, you would just scan across it to find what you want. You don't have to read everything on the page to know what it is talking about.
- zersiax 12y agoI would not say that. When you are skimming, you actually skip parts of the text. Since an audible text is a constant stream of data, just skipping parts would make it incomprehensible
- walterbell 12y agoIn speed reading, you can read sentences backwards and the brain will reorder them in real time. You can learn to decouple image (symbol/word) acquisition from comprehension. Step one om this path is to stop subvocalization, saying words out loud in your head. It's the same difference between Sync (O_DIRECT) and Async disk writes.

- erikano 12y agoIt might. I'll try those things. Thank you.
- Retra 12y agoYou still see the text, even if you don't understand it. Your eyes are collecting a constant stream of data, too.
