How Fast Can You Type Two Letters Repeatedly?

The Numbers Puzzle

“ The Army sent me a letter during my junior year at Dartmouth, promising to pay for graduate school. The Navy and Air Force did the same, promising skills and special training. The Marine Corps promised nothing.”

“Remember this. Hold on to this. This is the only perfection there is, the perfection of helping others. This is the only thing we can do that has any lasting value or meaning. This is why we’re here. To make each other feel safe.”

“The evidence – including data from the EVS … suggests very strongly that an inclusive workplace is among the most important levers of engagement, and, in the US federal government, perhaps the strongest driver of all.”
