Gosh, I can't believe modern keyboards still maintain the horrible staggered key arrangement... it's like we're sill in the 1800's.

We do a lot of crazy things. I KNOW that I should be using the Colemak layout, and I would make the change immediately, except for the fact that I sit behind at least a half-dozen computers regularly (that is, for at least several minutes, each, weekly), what with helping out family, co-workers, and friends, so I opt to stay with straight ANSI as much as possible, just because it is the "path of least resistance" .......

But this video is totally cool, no doubt!

"However, even though I was born in the Mesozoic, I do know what anyone who wants to reach out to young people should say: Billionaires took your money. They took your chance to buy a home. They took your chance at a good education. They stole your opportunities. Billionaires took the things you want in life. If you really want those things, you have to take them back.
That's the message. That's the whole message. Say that every day, not just to reach America's frustrated young white men, but people of every age, race, and gender.
Late-stage capitalism is a wealth-concentration engine, focused on vacuuming up every dollar and putting it in as few hands as possible. Republicans are helping that vacuum suck.
How does a tiny fraction of the population get away with this? They do it by dividing the other 99% of Americans against themselves."

TYPING AND YOU.... so informative

No doubt the kids should be learning colemak today.  I am too lazy to convert though.  

Dropping from 100+wpm and working my way back up from zero would just be too frustrating and even then I'd have to face qwerty on every other keyboard I encounter.

that's why most people think of us and our keyboards.
