Monkeytype is hella confusing - no real sentence and that lag between typing and showing on screen. 80w/m is quick! I'm at 40..50, with special chars much slower I guess.
Whichever you want or both. I used the right thumb before but then I switched to split keyboard I moved it to the left thumb. Whatever you feel is most comfortable!
What are your thoughts on the new Riverpod version, and specifically the code generation? I've used it now in a project and I'm a bit torn. Sure, it works great, for now. But I feel like all I can do is hope that it continues to work, since I'm not the one writing the code. It's a bit scary.
I don't use the code-gen part and probably won't either. Maybe if it's metaprogramming implemented later on but right now I would rather avoid all that code-gen (so many packages require that now)
@@RobertBrunhage Yeah, I agree, it's a bit weird. It's even the recommended way according to the author. Will probably go back to non code gen in future projects. Metaprogramming could be sick though
@@kingpinkent I don't care what's recommended in terms of approaches tbh. In most projects I have worked on a lot of code is already code generated. I rather not add another layer on top of that to slow down CI and the analyzer (and local code gen).
28 Dec 2021: Typing speed was 30 average Started Practising typing in monkey type 28 Dec 2022 (Excetly 1 Year): Typing speed was 83 average I give typing test at least once a everyday Got Good Results Keep Practising and that's what helps!
It's sooo worth doing. Never ever felt that I should have spent those hours training up my speed on something else. So much value in everything related to computers!
@@WeirdDev69 Had like 5 minutes a day in the morning where I just focused on accuracy in typing tests where the last minute was just focusing on speed (must push speed to get the feeling of typing fast). Did that for a while and the speed just went up
It's a lot faster than you think as soon as you have gone through the finger placement "tutorials" for touch typing. After that it's just a couple of hours of practice in a span of a month or less in many cases
I didn't really "train" it. When I was improving speed I was always coding on side projects or work projects which forced me to train it (while not looking). So when I was at 80wpm but special character speed was already quite decent.
how your split type keyboard? do really help in fast typing? Im in 80wpm but my problem always is the special characters. I'm thinking of buying split keyboard and improving my typing again
Split doesn't really help with typing faster but could help you with proper typing techniques. I was typing around 120-130 before using split and now I am back at around 110-120, so still not at my original speed. A lot more comfy though :D
