This table shows the daily frequency with which I press keys on my keyboard. I am thinking about Ergodox [1] and alternative keyboard layouts [2]. I used linux logkeys to spy on myself and this script to analyze https://github.com/waas/personal/blob/ab48ac82ca917f17256884a2fb4a7589b68e02f8/bpotter/analyze_key_strokes.py [1] - http://jjt.io/2013/…
