What keyboards can allow you to type at 300 wpm? Besides the insane amount of skill and practice that it takes to be able to type that fast, which keyboard you have could effect how fast you can type a lot. This is why all the top typists carefully pick, mod, and use every keyboard that they get. Every mechanical keyboard has three main comments that effect the typing experience: switches, keycaps, and layout. ...

Why you should take the time to learn to prompt When most people are writing a prompt to an LLM they only write a sentence or two. While this is straight forward, it normally leads to generic results that sometimes aren’t even helpful. The solution to this is to take the time to write a nice prompt that is catered to your certain use case. When writing a good prompt there is a specific structure to follow, which both makes it easer to start writing the prompt and for the LLM to understand what you want. By following the five-part formula you can ensure that you will always get a response from the AI that is useful for your specific use case. ...

This is because of the time and context switch costs: The Time Cost: Every reach for the mouse is a few seconds lost. The Context Switch Cost: More critically, you interrupt your flow state. You have to visually locate and track the cursor, and when you return to the keyboard, you have to mentally and physically reset your typing position. Even though it might only take a couple seconds to do all the above and then get back to typing, if you add up those few seconds for all the times it happens in a day, week, or month, it can start to become hours of time that you could have otherwise spent working or thinking. ...

Welcome! This is my first post - and a promise. I’ll be publishing here every day with small, useful snippets of knowledge. What you’ll find: Pillars: programming, game dev, keyboards/typing, learning systems, and AI. Programming I like to build things, from small tools and automation scripts to entire games or course websites. I plan to share the process and ideas that go into making these tools here with you. Game development I’m currently building two indie games and have always found interest in coding something that I can actually play. So I would like to share that passion with you, weather it is a small update or reworking all the art. ...
