If I'm actually reading with the goal of thorough understanding then it will take as long as reading it aloud or longer. I can still skim through the text faster, but I will understand less of it.
The Wikipedia article on subvocalization has a section on speed reading. It seems that subvocalizing can in fact limit the reading speed.
This is not a good explanation because as someone already pointed out a lot of (most?) people do "read the words aloud in their head". For me, I often even make tiny moves of my tongue and larynx - see subvocalization.
Literally the point of money is to exchange it for something.
Excellent explanation. Saving this for discussions with friends.
Maybe they just want you to let your guard down to deal the final blow when you least expect it? Better be careful!
Yes, I hate them! And apparently you can literally fucking die from messing with them too?!
Yes! I actually couldn't resist reading it again when posting it.
This is what always comes to my mind when someone mentions Enlightenment: https://web.archive.org/web/20230424121033/https://what.thedailywtf.com/topic/15001/enlightened. Might provide some answers too.
Well, I didn't even get to this part. But... it doesn't have scrollback? Really? That's crazy!
I mean, I would say it's not a half bad thing to build your identity around.
Since the review doesn't mention any downsides I'm gonna go ahead and share one. This might seem like a tiny thing but relatively slow startup turned out to be a total deal breaker for me. In my workflow, I open and close a lot of terminal windows. Sometimes I spawn terminals just for a few seconds to run a single command and then close them. Kitty and Alacritty launch instantaneously whereas Ghostty has a noticeable lag which was just infuriating to me. Also, it doesn't have any useful (for me) features not present in Kitty so yeah, I guess it's not for me.
Is it even possible to not care at this age though? At this point school and interacting with your peers is a vast majority of your life. I don't think I have ever seen a kid being bullied every day at school and not caring. How can you not care if you're scared?
I guess it is possible as you get older, more mature and closer to adulthood. But for a kid in a primary or middle school? Kinda hard to imagine for me.
