> You’re going to be renaming things, going to type definitions, finding references, etc a lot; you should be fast at this. You should know all the major shortcuts in your editor.
Programmers love to think this matters. If you're doing anything more than the most rudimentary work, the time 'saved' by maximizing keyboard shortcuts is completely irrelevant. You're spending most of your time reading code, thinking about that code and thinking of what code you're going to write.
When any programmer emphasizes how fast they are at completing these rudimentary tasks, my assumption is they are less adapt at the actual work of programming and instead try to 'git gud' at the keyboard wizard bullshit.
