I’ll say it again for the logic-impaired: keyboards aren’t just for CLIs, and mice aren’t just for GUIs. There’s no good reason whatsoever that even in what’s commonly referred to as the GUI world, that you should eschew the keyboard. For many problem domains (xbill and its ilk notably excepted), the keyboard remains the fastest, most efficient, and most powerful input device available, and it would be the height of folly to avoid it.

The problem right now, is that my wrists and forearms, and now my eyes, are killing me. It’s very tough to stay in that zone these days.

To make matters even worse, I’ve been using Time Out to make sure that physical pains don’t get worse. This only adds to the problem of getting into the zone, and staying there.

In any case, an eye-opening piece of the usability of keyboards and mice.
