I am not convinced this is true, although I can understand why someone might think it's true.

@GeoffWozniak I fully believe they've made the case for typing slower and more deliberately than for typing speed being a bottleneck.Typing quality matters and typoes distract, not that you have to type at least as fast as you can intuitively think

@kline @GeoffWozniak And I’m over here thinking that people should be planning out and thinking through the software they are going to write in non-real time and separately from the moment of actually entering lines of code in an editor, and that the people I knew with the least friction between their brain and the compiler wrote the most horrendous to maintain spaghetti nests and were my least favorite coworkers.

@vortex_egg @GeoffWozniak I mean, I do usually have a plan for the design, I know what I need a list to have in it, but it can still be the case that if it's a niggly list comprehension that a typo could throw me

@kline @vortex_egg There are always the details, but I don't do the design by vomiting out text just to see what happens.
