It is the same with being smart but run really slow.

No amount of boilerplate can help you.

At the end of the day, you need to type fast enough above a certain threshold to be a programmer.

For example, I would say if you type <10 wpm, you cannot be a good programmer.

There is definitely a number that makes sense.
