Yes, but you can judge based on force curves to compare switches you have tried to switches you haven't.

I tried one-handed layouts at one point out of curiosity and I found my one-handed typing speed on a normal QWERTY keyboard to be better.

I use a rotary dial like this as an alternate, more precise, input method for sliders in my photo editor Filmulator.

My skiing tip is that your natural reflex to lean back if you feel unsafe is the most dangerous habit beginners have. Your skis are more stable and easier controlled with your weight forward 100% of the time, and it is less work too.

An example of true exponentials in real life: the maximum load force a capstan can support is literally exponentially greater than the holding force applied to the opposite end.

I was reading the criticism and suggestions and wondering what they were talking about, it seemed to read perfectly fine… Then I saw that the project had already been changed in response! Impressive.

It looks like the losing cases are those where in hard mode you can easily get 4 of the letters correct but you have more potential words than guesses left.

I find the color rendering of my 5D and 1Ds3 (2005 and 2007 designs) to be slightly, but noticeably, different from new cameras. One quantitative difference is that there's less green sensitivity in the blue raw channel than modern sen
