> I can read fast, and I typically go through fluffy NYT bestseller nonfiction at 600 WPM. But when I do this I constantly have a sneaking suspicion that I'm just wasting my time. When I read a good book full of new ideas, I barely go at 150 WPM, but the time always feels well-spent.

I do the same, but with Hacker News comments :)



Hey, I never said my comment was a novel insight! I'm here to waste time too. ;-)
