FWIW, UX research (perhaps in the 1980s) also suggested that while many people reported "feeling faster" with particular input/editing actions (compared to e.g. using a mouse), in some case the operations were no faster as o

Even physical noise? I don't imagine you could create a random walk in frequency space, say if the steps taken had to be integer-valued.

Check out, also, Writers Guild of America West.[1] They provide an online service for registering a file of up to 10MB. IIRC the fee is $25 or $50. The result is legal evidence, acccording to them. One use case, so I heard: Rather than show

I don't remember why I was there, particularly as a physics major, but I remember a single look through while half-opening the door to a 4th? floor lab in Evans (UCB) in 1978 or so, understanding it to be the Unix lab. Not a brush-with
