It seems another metaphor to describe "pace layering" in complex system. Here's an article I always liked on the topic and inspired me years ago: https://jods.mitpress.mit.edu/pub/issue3-brand/release/2

I often ended up applying this simple principle to software, especially design systems, e.g. in atomic design where atom, molecules, organism, etc. Can be developed as layers with different pace of change and optimized around it.

I'm curious if anybody knows where the concept came from originally. Was there already something like that in Greek philosophy, or was introduced with the study of complex systems? Or maybe it was indeed from architecture?

Using a split keyboard helped a lot in that sense, even though when writing in a hurry is still hard to not go back to some level to wrong habits. I think it helps to find occasions where typing speed is not a must (e.g. anything that is not real time chat) and accept the speed loss while getting the muscle memory build up.

What i am really struggling, and maybe somebody has some advice here, is touch typing for programming. Writing words is not a problem, but many frequent symbols are so far away from the home row that even with a small keyboard are hard to reach and find precisely (especially (,),-,_,+,=,&,$,@).

Do you stay on the home row and stretch your finger like crazy? Or maybe temporarily move the hand to the upper row? Also for vim users... Never understood how to deal with auto brackets/quotes: when you get to the point where you need to go past the closing one, either you have to type it defeating the time saving of auto-insertion, or you need to do some kind of dance like using arrows or something like ESC + A

You may need some sort of threshold to ignore scrolls that are mostly vertical. It's really hard to scroll the page on mobile as the slider prevents the default scroll unless the movement is perfectly vertical

There is also a very small shop in wedding that only sells darts (and targets I assume). I passed by in front of it many times and always wondered how big the darting community must be for that shop to stay in business

Hey, which one was the shop exactly? At this point I'd like to give a try to his fried potatoes (not sure if calling them french fries would be always appropriate :) )

Do you still have issues on Zalando.de? I just tried with Firefox from Linux and it seems to work correctly. Do you have more details in order to reproduce the problem?

Zola seem the most popular static site generator that allows you to generate a website without any JS bundle without using some strange hack.

This is the way I firstly stumbled upon it as I was looking for a fast way to generate a fully static site with the advantages of a generator and none of the overheads...

It may be limited for certain use cases but I think it would be my first choice for editing a static site without JS
