do you find it more comfortable to type less or read more?

obviously the former, have you considered learning to touch type?

we have these things called "clipboards" and "multiple cursors" in code editors now, the "type less" argument is void at this point

especially when you start talking about generics

simple fact of cognition that you don't understand because you are probably a relatively new and probably young programmer with very plastic brain

learning is harder than understanding

learning causes more stress, understanding relieves it
