1 year agoI don’t know anything about being an electrician - commercial or otherwise, so I’m curious to hear your side.
When all those people go to working remote, it’s not like they’re no longer in need of electricity. Presumably their home demand is higher and we might even see people adding new office spaces to adapt their home. Maybe the public grid needs to change to support it? Won’t this mean that there will just be a different type of demand for electricians?
Are there reasons this would be less attractive to electricians? Pay, job security, or something else?
I use a 60% for literally everything. It’s my only keyboard. If I had more keys, 99.9% of what I’m doing would be on these keys anyways.
I’m often using vim-style navigation in editors, which is designed to minimize the need to move your hands off the home row in the first place.
When I do need arrow keys, I hold a modifier key and my hjku keys become arrow keys. For gaming I can toggle the arrow keys on so I don’t need to hold another key the whole time.
I wouldn’t say I have a wildly complex setup. There are very few custom keybinds that I use regularly and need.
