How do Ergo layouts make it harder to touch type? I learnt touch typing after getting my first ergo keyboard, but I found it a transferrable skill to normal qwerty staggered keyboards with little need for adjustment. My error rate might be 1% higher on none-ergo keyboards, but otherwise I don't notice much difference.
Very nice! I suspect a lot of people will be dismissive of this, same way people dismiss the usefulness of inaccurate tools such as Google translate for learning languages. Similarly to Google translate, though, I believe this can be very useful if the user remains critical of the output. It would not surprise me if this becomes a "must have" tool for language learning in the future. My only major complainants so far is that it doesn't support my main foreign language (Japanese), and that the website lacks mobile support, but I'm sure these are both planned for the future
Thanks for the feedback! I agree that the mobile experience is far for acceptable, but this is something I am actively working on at the moment. Also, Japanese is a language that is planned to be supported in the near future!
I am reading the same book right now, but with my eyes rather than ears. I don't actually mind the detail in retrospect, because it's used both to add flavour to the story and to reflect on ideas that are very unique, at least to me. I do agree that it's a bit terse at times though. The part about the monastery did make me bored
