In
this post James Kovacs is talking about becoming a ReSharper Jedi. Recently I attended a training class given by
JP Boodhoo who is probably Obi Wan to these guys, if not Yoda himself.
I admit to being completely overwhelmed for most of the week, not the least reason being the obsession with this topic - Keyboard=Good Mouse=Bad.
But I can tell you for certain that in my programming career it is never the speed of clicking File | New that slows my development efforts. Or the speed of using the mouse to right click on the project and Add a Class. Sure hitting some key combination would be FASTER. But I just don't need that kind of speed.
Most of my time is spent thinking.
It is really a bit humbling to me. I imagine these guys are so much smarter than I am, that in their mind they have already written the next 3 classes and they just need to push them onto the disk as fast as they can so they can move on to the next project. Wow!
