It’s just off-topic for HN.

P.S., > “BBC seems like a trustworthy”

Indeed! That’s their best trick.

We are allowing this to happen. For so many years corrupt politicians have avoided any consequences so it grows and becomes new normal.

Market manipulation has been the norm for many years because nobody did anything to stop it.

Pardoning criminals is becoming the new normal. Next normal is going to be launching wars to distract public and is going to cost a lot of lives.

I live in Europe and drive a Tesla, so I occasionally chat with other Tesla owners. Many of them make a point of mentioning that they bought their car years ago and probably wouldn’t have made the same choice if they’d known about Musk’s activities in Europe. Some even seem worried about being judged.

I’m fairly certain that the overall decline in interest is mainly due to general economic uncertainty and the phasing out of EV incentives in various countries. But I’m trying to say that it’s clear that Musk’s reputation has taken a hit! ironically among some of the very demographic groups most likely to be Tesla customers.

It depends how fast you want to get. You need both skills and good keyboard. You can't type FAST with an average keyboard that doesn't register keys as fast as you can type.

With standard Qwerty touch-typing fingers position, you can build up to 85-95wpm easily. You need a lot of practice to build the muscle memory. You can learn basics in Typingclub.com and then you need a lot more practice in communities like typeracer.com.

If you want to get faster than that, you have to use advanced methods that competitive typist use which is fundamentally very similar to standard touch typing positions but slight difference to make it more efficient.

Different keyboard layouts have the same story. But you could also switch to Dvorak. It does theoretically give you speed boost while it puts less stress on your fingers.

If you don't want to become a competitive typist, better to not go above ~65wpm. You can really hurt your fingers without having proper exercises. You probably don't need more than that in regular jobs either.

Nobody was bothered with ads the way they used to be. But currently you can't use internet without ad-blockers.

Advertisers are pushing too much and they are overheating their market.
