I usually read at around 750 wpm or so, but that involves translation from the written language to a thought. Thinking to myself on its own is a lot faster because...
That's not even close to "thinking." That also might not even be "reading," it might only be "scanning." It certainly isn't the type of reading where you're "thinking" about the meaning of what you read.
This is a case where when you brag you do it faster, you're only claiming to do less of it. You want to feel like you're saying you're really smart and good at thinking, but you're actually saying that you basically never think about anything and can't tell the difference between thinking and free association of words.
Pretty much everything common that would normally be done in emacs is available through pull-down menus, same as anything else. There is nothing special or alien that you have to know.
I remember it from 30 years ago, a totally incorrect mythology about the development of QWERTY that if true would imply it is horrible and should be replaced. But wasn't at all true. Actually it was almost the opposite of the truth, but back then history was difficult to discover.
There are still aliterate people who believe it, of course.
Well, I'm going out on a limb here, but maybe people who type competitively aren't doing the same thing as people who are going to save, send, or submit the results of their typing and not just the metadata.
Also, that gelbut guy is looking pretty suspicious with a whole page of scores between 199.99 and 199.42. Never a bad day and only 198? Never a good day and 200? Names that differ from their neighbors, and similar names with scores that vary, all seem to be QWERTY. In fact, only the bot filling page one is using Dvorak.
Yeah, it is a failure, that's why all the countries that can, buy it.
Politicians who run for office saying bad things about it and promising to cancel their country's orders get into office, get their classified briefing, and maintain or increase their orders.
You were credulous of silly internet rumors, they were wrong. But you're still repeating it. Even after years of evidence, even after it is operational, you still don't get it. When the US and Japan flew a bunch of them right next to the North Korean border to piss them off, they never saw them and we had to announce the route that was taken in the press just to get the North Koreans to issue an angry statement.
Your mental hygiene is awful, and your regurgitated derp stinks. Whine about the ad hominem, and don't bother to grow a brain cell, or figure out the difference between analysis and repetition.
Here we go again! I love the A-10, but it sucks at close air support in modern conflicts. It is highly vulnerable compared to the F-16. Close air support is not done looking out the window, it is done by dropping precision ordinance from above the range of MANPADs.
Marines like the A-10 because they don't have anything else armored with a big cannon, and they're not convinced they won't ever have to face concealed armor anymore. In actual conflicts where the A-10 is used, the F-16 is the primary platform for close air support.
Neckbeards who played too many of the wrong video game become incapable of listening.
Not only that, the grounded them Thursday, for 24-48 hours. Each plane was grounded until its part numbers could be manually verified for possible part replacement.
Slashdot ran this Saturday, after the whole event had ended and everything was already back in service. How derpy! It isn't even news, and fuel parts aren't that interesting to nerds.
Possibly B, if it is a Venus Fly Trap or other carnivore. Especially if before spitting you were drinking Earth Sugar Drink.
And expecting an AI to agree with humans about the applicability of C is perhaps dubious. If you reduced photosynthesis there might be chemical markers released that signify the plant is aware of non-optimal conditions, and it might even wave its branches around trying to find the sun. There is not really much reason to assume than an AI would see this as being different than the conditions involved in human anger.
Our familiarity with the world makes us reject conclusions which are logically valid, but just seem wrong. This is often wrong, and when it is we call it a "cognitive bias". But it's often right, too, and when it is we call it "common sense". Same mechanism, different words.
The problem is that you presume there is some external measure of correctness that tells us the difference.
But in reality, what is called "common sense" is usually cognitive bias, and what is called "cognitive bias" is often also just a correct observation made by the "wrong" person. They might actually just be synonyms for unsupported crap that is usually wrong.
Common sense is whatever the ignorant utter when they hear experts talking about details they don't understand.
Just like, a paradox is something that you refuse to accept that you don't understand, and so remain confused about even after you found out that the part you thought you understood was actually wrong.
And irony is comedy based on irrational expectations predictably not matching reality.
Half the people are below average. Common sense is that wisdom that is common even to most of them. It should be no surprise that it is unwise to use it even as a starting point!
Yeah, even in the attempted example question, the "common sense" answer is A, but the "actual fact" answer is A and B. A during the day, B at night. C is most likely also true in real scenarios.
My goal in writing automated systems is to make less of the mistakes known by the moniker "common sense," not to make more of them.
If you lack information and are forced into action, "common sense" might be a decent least-bad semi-random choice, but it should never be expected to be correct or optimal.
Plastic bags are classified as "plastic film". Plastic films can be recycled in some facilities, but not others. Where I live, they don't accept it for street pickup because their facility uses a conveyor belt and bags would be carried off by the wind.
Never heard that one before. Here they use the excuse that they get caught in the machine's wheels.
But the reason recyclers in the US don't accept it is that it has minimal value, and grocery stores are required by law to accept plastic film for recycling. They then pay recyclers to take it off their hands. Those people then process and resell the small portion that there is a market for, and landfill or incinerate the rest according to local custom. So for a commercial recycler doing home recycling pickup there is no market at all, they would lose money at market rates because they don't get the subsidy.
If you're doing it right, then when you complain to the cashier it is actually for the purpose of a memory aid to yourself to shop somewhere else. When you turn your dissatisfaction into a social exchange it enhances your short term memory of the problem and makes it more likely you'll remember to go somewhere else the next time you need cheap bandages.
And BTW, it is pretty much guaranteed that department stores will have equal or lower prices on bandages than a "drug store." Drug stores are a species of convenience store. Like 7-11, but with a pharmacy. The Rx in the pharmacy is what brings people in, and then everything else is only there for convenience shopping.
How do you know? Did you consider all the possible reasons for sharing that opinion, or just one that is easily refuted?
If you find yourself cherry-picking straw-men, you might not have a firm grasp of what is going on.
It might even be that your own utterances throughout the day would not have been made by [some random internet person]. How often do you stop to reconsider your words on that basis? As often as you ask others to do it, or much less? Thought so.

Stenotypers do not actually type of 200 words of language per minute. They only type 200 words of shorthand per minute.
Are, our, hour, those all get typed as "R."
Stenotypers can haz cheeseburger at 200 words per minute, they would not be able to type an email at that speed.
It's called an assistant.
you easy think 500 - 1000 words per minute.
Uh, yeah, that might not even be what people normally mean by "thinking." That's just association.
And if your hands get tired, just use your head.
These days you're supposed to just build a custom keyboard. Because future.

Probably because they use QWERTZ, not QUERTZ.

In college they taught single document interface and multiple document interface as a personal preference, with no best practices.
Now they teach some nonsense about how even having features confuses the user.

Generalized to AI it would be, "aim the energetic end towards negative infinity on the friend axis."
But for contemporary electronic machines a better simplification might be just to measure (predicted) heat, and aim the hot end towards -1

I mean "long pig," but I guess it still works with what I wrote.
You still seem to think that food comes from the store.
You also seem to think that fish exist only to feed you.
Don't stop eating earthworms, or they'll all "effectively" be gone.
What would happen if people stopped eating "short pig?" Would the species be "effectively gone?"
Your understanding of zoology seems to be limited to, "I can haz cheeseburger?"
LOL presumably that one works with every area code, too.
