I have absolutely no respect for developers who can't properly touch-type.

You don't see many cooks who don't know how to handle a knife, do you?

    @Jilano I would pass that. But I thought it means typing on a Smartphone, I would fail that.

    What you described I would use the term blind typing.

    I'm kinda half touch typing. I'd love to be able to touch type. Wouldn't require a backlit keyboard then

    You don't need to touch type as a dev because you are writing from your mind. You just need it to digitalize printed Texts, so you can keep your eyes on the paper.

    I tend to use my brain to code, typing is the result of a lot of hard work.

    I guess I would call it a non functional requirement

    @plusgut Typing your thoughts is much easier that copying text from a paper.

    @qbalsdon I would be surprised if someone couldn't touch type after typing all day every day. I guess that's how I actually feel about it.
