Exactly. I could get over 180 on a 50w test with some time. My pb on 60s is 175. I was impressed until i saw he was using steno. To put it into perspective, 180 on steno is half of the fastest of about 360, which would be the same as 125 on qwerty. Not to mention the fact that this test is extremely short. Steno users wanting to go against qwerty users pisses me off, but besides that stenography is cool.

I am a typist who can do this fast on qwerty somewhat consistently, but as the amount of time goes on the difference between the two methods really shows (being able to keep up the speed and with incredible accuracy). Not sure if I'll ever get into typing with this method but it is really cool to see.

Are steno keyboards different based on language? Are they good at writing specific and complex words from specialized fields? I'm just asking because I'm genuinely curious how someone could write things like "irresponsibility" using this method.

Am I correct in assuming that this wouldn't be super useful for programming? Since during programming you often need to write multiple words into one variable name, so having a space automatically added would be bad.
I see no reason why you couldn't apply this general principle with some tweaks, but the real question is how much time are you really saving when you can already leverage templates and autofill functions in IDEs.
@@EvertvanBrussel The majority of programming is thinking, not typing. I average ~150 wpm when typing to people, but when programming, I have to think *way* further ahead than a few words. I'm thinking of variable names, how I referenced things ago, how I want something to work... Etc. It helps a bit for sure (if I'm doing something I've done hundreds of times, and is basically "auto-pilot"), but the majority of those can also be done *even faster* by smart copy-pasting. IMO, it helps extremely little when programming :(
If typing speed is your struggle when programming... then I'm afraid to look at any of your PRs. I type around 170 wpm when chatting with people and writing bullshit comments like these. But when I'm coding? I probably type around 30 wpm and half of the keystrokes are backspaces.
few questions: what's your qwerty typing speed? also, why is there a long delay in between each word, is it difficult to accurately move your fingers quick on the keyboard, or is this just a speed you wanted to demonstrate the steno at?
@@robbi2783 I never had to "adapt" to steno from qwerty. It's just a completely different way of typing that I learned. So I have no problem switching back and forth. It takes about a week to learn the layout and it's all practice speed and vocabulary from there.

This is cool, I wish i had the money to support it
Am I correct in assuming that this wouldn't be super useful for programming? Since during programming you often need to write multiple words into one variable name, so having a space automatically added would be bad.
I see no reason why you couldn't apply this general principle with some tweaks, but the real question is how much time are you really saving when you can already leverage templates and autofill functions in IDEs.
@@Dewkeeper good point yeah
@@EvertvanBrussel The majority of programming is thinking, not typing. I average ~150 wpm when typing to people, but when programming, I have to think *way* further ahead than a few words. I'm thinking of variable names, how I referenced things ago, how I want something to work... Etc. It helps a bit for sure (if I'm doing something I've done hundreds of times, and is basically "auto-pilot"), but the majority of those can also be done *even faster* by smart copy-pasting. IMO, it helps extremely little when programming :(
High APM vim or emacs are the way into the Matrix
If typing speed is your struggle when programming... then I'm afraid to look at any of your PRs.
I type around 170 wpm when chatting with people and writing bullshit comments like these. But when I'm coding? I probably type around 30 wpm and half of the keystrokes are backspaces.
THIS IS MAGIC!
This is the slowest fastest typing I've seen yet
Looks like utter black magic
few questions: what's your qwerty typing speed? also, why is there a long delay in between each word, is it difficult to accurately move your fingers quick on the keyboard, or is this just a speed you wanted to demonstrate the steno at?
steno works like that kinda at lower wpms
There are button combos, and he has only practiced for a year, i think it just not being used to it completely.
@@SomeCowguy he made another video of 300wpm typing so I think this may have just been comfortable speed for him
Where do I learn to type on this format? Seems way more efficient than qwerty.
It is more efficient! you can learn this here: www.artofchording.com/
@@StenoKeyboards how long does it take to adapt from qwery to steno?
@@robbi2783 I never had to "adapt" to steno from qwerty. It's just a completely different way of typing that I learned. So I have no problem switching back and forth. It takes about a week to learn the layout and it's all practice speed and vocabulary from there.
@@StenoKeyboards thank you 🙏
i like your funny keyboard, magic man
Looks totally alien to me, I am blown away🤯

Rip stenographer in the age of AI dictation
there's literally shortage of Stenographers, and one of the most indemand now..
Man be typing like he's playing the piano
putting justin y in your username doesn't make you instant internet comedian
Pentagon be like "QUICK! WHAT'S THE PASSWORD!" and the passwords like
It looks like you're doing combos
Me trying to master my stenokeyboard
My auto-correct - hold my beer 🍻
he’s a ghost!
We get it, you type.
damn those switches sound scratchy af
This looks weird and uncomfortable and i love it
This guy doing 183 while i still can't reach 35 wpm
Fascinating
So this is the person who beat me in nitrotype
I'm stupid. How does this work? Are you pushing the keys down in sequences for efficiency?
Those fingures are moving all together, like they are doing kung fu on keyboard 😂😂😂 really nice to stenographer type for the first time in my life
Dude playing the piano
