Poor guy can’t even do an innocuous bit without bad software ruining it

I was beating him by a few letters at first when he stalled but then he did that amazing Ctrl+C=>Ctrl+V magic trick and bamboozled me. Jon doesn't pull rabbits out a hat, he pulls out kangaroos. He is the kind of guy who gets constants Ws ... and all on his own.

Half expected this to end in him writing a typeracer competitor

"If you put too many "w"s in your program... Well, who knows what'll happen if there's too many "w"s in your program?"
Guess we know now.

Just for giggles I tried this in vs code and it handled it fine even though I put over a million 'w' chars on the same line.
I was expecting it to slow down .. but it handled it fine ..

This man is a true genuis. It scares me.

All of a sudden this went from "guess how many Ws I can copy/paste in a minute" to "see why Emacs is the bane of my existence?"

That's why there's vim/neovim or, hear me out on this, he can write his own editor! Not sure why he hadn't already done his Jai tech stack over a few weekends so he can get his lightening fast editor, terminal emulator, and debugger while he's at it.

Omg this Emacks IDE is so bloated and soooo slow!
Why doesn't Jon program in something made before 2000s?
(only Jon's fans will appreciate this joke)

Mine is 923049 in 30 seconds, until my editor crashed.

I really don't understand why people use command-line text editors then. Even some electron-based IDE that runs Javascript every time you press a button is more responsive than that.
