I want to be able to reason about my code without sitting in front of it, so I simply don't use those tools and this understanding of the codebase builds over time. When you're working in one area of it, you read it and make addit

Sample-and-hold causes smearing when your eyes track an image that is moving across the screen. That doesn't happen in the real world: if you follow an object with your eyes it is seen sharply. With strobing, moving objects still remai

Faster than Dvorak. Unlike switching from fluent QWERTY to an initially slow other-layout, you're switching from the frustrating autocorrupt to something deterministic and predictable. I picked it up to a usable speed within two days,

I still don't get why you need the horizontal cut at all. The diagram at the bottom of the blog post shows how unnecessary it is when you do the vertical cuts at a narrow range of angles like that (which I have been doing for a while n
