Is it really faster though? I’ve built PoC of something similar and a test game to check how much faster it was to use keyboard. To my surprise mouse was consistently faster ( by a lot).

It depends on the context and the system you’re working with. In some systems, an hour may last 3599, 3600 or 3601 seconds (due to the leap second), a minute may be 59,60 or 61 seconds. Even a second is not always a „true” second.

There’s no single time unit that works for all situations.

You seem to assume that a day always has 24 hours. Common (but not only) non-24h day lengths are: - 23 hours - 25 hours - 24 hours 1 second - 23 hours 59 minutes 59 seconds

You could assume that a day isn't exactly 24 hours, but it's close-ish to 24 hours. Nope, not even close.

And that assumes that we can treat an hour as a precise measure of time (we can't). On some systems, even a second is not a precise measure of time (second smearing).

To make things worse, those are "simple" edge cases.

Time is hard. I'm not sure if I can make any statement about time that is true.

You don’t need the other person to be in the same room - a video call works just fine. In fact, it can be even better for productivity since there's less chit-chat.

I work every day with people addicted to YouTube. A WorkMode client shared this approach; we tested it with a small group. Anecdotal but consistent - it works surprisingly well, cuts usage sharply, and seems to hold up long-term.

Everything you wrote is true, but this is not how it works in practice. Usually, the person running the blog uses WordPress, and doesn't know about caching. They add a few plugins that significantly increase response time and make the response dynamic (for example, CSRF nonces). Add to that some "static" AJAX requests (which usually are POSTs and not cacheable), and it all adds up.

I wouldn't bet on an average dev being able to set up and configure nginx + Cloudflare correctly.

>Course you’ll need your http headers set correctly, but you needed that anyway for cloudflare

Not if you don't use CF to cache "dynamic" content.

User would have to enable caching in CF and the response from the server would have to be cacheable for CF for caching to kick in.

62.5ms for a non-cached request? In my experience that’s really fast response time for a blog even on a dedicated bare-metal server.

> Your comment could use a better tone, but I do agree that, especially with the difficulties that people are having finding a job these days, there has been elevated interest in ADHD and thus there are more attempts to prey on people with genuine issues

When you say “prey,” what kinds of products or services do you have in mind? I’ve seen some pretty dubious offerings, but I believe most creators genuinely want to help fellow ADHDers. Whether those solutions continue to work after the initial novelty wears off is another question.
