  1. pas mal l'exercice de #keybr pour apprendre la couche altgr des symboles de programmation, mais c'est juste dommage que les bouts de code soient totalement absurdes.
    ce qui m'a aidé c'est d'essayer des exercices sur différents langages de prog à choisir dans les paramètres.

    mais c'est un obstacle que le code soit absurde, contrairement aux exercices ou on apprend des mots sans faire de phrase, pour du code je trouve ça vraiment dérangeant. on est pas un LLM, bordel !

  2. J’ai débloqué toutes les lettres en #ergol sur #keybr (à 20 wpm, la moitié le sont à 35 wpm)

    Dorénavant, je travaille la précision en interrompant chaque leçon à la première erreur. Je me force à ralentir pour faire du 100%.

    Dès que j’accélère, les réflexes #bépo reviennent immédiatement (surtout le P ou les voyelles que je cherche à gauche)

    Très dur pour moi de ne pas écrire à la vitesse de la pensée…

    J’apprends que @mart_e a débloqué toutes les touches #ergol sur #keybr en 3 heures répartie sur 5 jours ! 😲

    Je suis encore au J après 8h sur 10 jours !

    Il est impressionant ou bien je suis lent ?

  4. Achievement unlocked: type 100 words per minute on average. :yayblob:

  5. J’ai tracé mes stats d’entrainement #ergol sur #monkey_type avec #python et #pandas !! Je suis plutôt content du résultat et surtout de ma progression !! :)

    En parallèle j’ai aussi fait beaucoup d’exercice avec #keybr qui est vraiment top aussi pour travailler ses points faibles ! :)

  6. Dites la team #ergol, vous avez fait comment pour apprendre les caractères spéciaux ? En regardant quand y avait besoin, ou avec un site à la #keybr / #monkeytype ? Je ne trouve rien de très satisfaisant.

  7. Après 5h30 (8 jours), j’ai enfin débloqué toutes les lettres sur #keybr en #Ergol avec une vitesse moyenne de 25 wpm. Encore un peu de boulot avant de passer comme disposition principale mais on se rapproche.

  8. Fin de semaine sur #keybr, toutes les lettres et la précision remonte enfin (même si 94% reste assez mauvais)

  9. But I also decided to tackle Colemak-DH, so getting crazy for good.

    I'm playing with since it has the proper matrix-based Colemak-DH layout and a lot of nice charts and metrics to see how things are going.

    keybr.com/profile/f5vmplt these are five days of practice, 20 minutes per day.

    I'm wondering how long it'll take go go above, say, 50-60wpm or at least a speed (and accuracy!) that won't hinder my thinking while typing: I need to think about the things I'm typing, not the keyboard!!

  10. I've been using #keybr since I got my #ergoDoxEZ and it's reassuring to see the progress. The cliff on the left where my speed and accuracy plummet is where I switched from a standard ergo #keyboard to the ergo. It did take some getting used to (still is) but as you can see it is climbing back to where it was.

  11. Now actively adding a new letter per day at #keybr for #colemak-dh.

    What do you do in the mornings at 6:40 AM ;-)

  12. Most of what I do on my computer is #typing. Whether that's #writing this, chatting, taking notes, or prose.

    One of the most powerful ways to increase the /pleasure/ of using electronics is to become adept at typing.

    Therefore, here's a list of resources for understanding typing, improving your speed, or even completely changing the layout you can use to spend less time typing, and more time thinking.

    1. Monkeytype - a great typing training website, includes multiple lists of words (start with English/English200 - it's the 200 most common words in English), options for different tests, punctuation, capitalization, etc. etc.

    monkeytype.com

    2. Keybr - this one is different. It's a progressive training website that starts with the home row (for multiple common layouts), and adds keys once you hit about 40WPM with them.

    It automatically generates words using common bigrams and trigrams, leading do a very well-rounded word list for training.

    If you're learning a new layout, Keybr is indispensible for the first few hours of training.

    3. https://bit.ly/keyboard-layouts-doc

    This is a document that goes into detail into the various layouts, the mechanics of typing, what to look for in a layout, how to type efficiently, and why QWERTY is bad (it really is).

    Well-worth the read.

    4. DreymaR's Big Bag of Kbd Tricks (https://dreymar.colemak.org/)

    DreymaR went to great lengths to make Colemak-DH accessible to everyone, and with that, he developed a number of extensions.

    If you choose to learn #colemak, his website is great. If you choose to go with something else, DreymaR's ExtEnd layer will still save you effort:
    https://dreymar.colemak.org/layers-extend.html

    The idea is to have a layer that includes the common nav keys, so you hold the modifier button for instance, and have your arrow keys right on your home row. It's a huge time saver, and I personally don't think I can go back to moving my hand to the arrows all the time.

    5. OXEY's Playground: https://o-x-e-y.github.io/layouts/playground/

    An amazing project. The website lets you drag and drop keys to change the layout so see exactly how the relevant statistics go up and down.

    This way you can evaluate alternative keyboard layouts and check if your desired changes make sense.

    If you're experimenting with improving the layout you're using for yourself, that's the place to start, imo.

    Those are really great resources, I think, and learning to type faster than the average of 40 WPM is kinda... necessary, if you work with computers at all.
