Eric S notapenguin's blog: "Enthusing generally..."

it does slow me down right now but - personal opinion only here and this will come out unfortunately however I phrase it, but... what's wrong with slowing down?... putting aside the fact that some of the mistakes I make come from trying to be superfast, in a way I can't hope to manage no matter what. (Fine motor skills? What fine motor skills? Ew, gross.) (Followup to the last post in this blog, on the change to the rating display system.)

I am sometimes more resistant than normal to "accept change" - and I expect the new appearance to the rating system here to be greeted with the (lack of) hurrahs, or rather, the boos and jeers that have greeted every other change here to date (almost). Maybe it's because my life is undergoing (really) major changes, and because, more to the point :), I like a system that dynamically shows the effect of my "rate" without my having to refresh the screen (it's not so very important to me anyway, but a 10 rate can reduce your 10.05 to a 10.03 and some people seem to care about that, alas... *shrug* ... ) - I also like the look of it... - so I do like it, expect to disagree with most everyone else about this, and am satisfied with that ;^) Eric sounding off on one of the important issues of the day (erm... of course...)
