Hello!

Explanations exist; they have existed for all time; there is always a well-known solution to every human problem — neat, plausible, and wrong. — H. L. Mencken

About

I'm qazer2687 (ˈkweɪ zər | KWAY-zer), a computer science undergraduate based in the UK.

I currently use the Colemak keyboard layout on my Silakka54 with Gateron Melodic switches, I enjoy practicing my skills and maintain a (15s 159WPM | 60s 135WPM) typing speed.

I am always developing this website; if you find any inaccuracies, bugs, or typos, feel free to let me know @qazer2687 on Discord!

You can also let me know if you disagree with any of my opinions and I'd be happy to discuss the topic and consider your views. I'm always open to learning something new.
