My company has conference rooms that have specialized hardware for Microsoft Teams meetings. The audio really sucks -- everyone must project their voice for people joining online to hear. If someone speaks in a low voice, nothing can be hea

Need evidence of that 10x number. The bottleneck in programming is often how fast you can think, not how fast you can type or use auto completion, and definitely not some shortcuts. They cut down time but are not magic. Not to mention that
