# Touch Typing

Looking closely at the letters, some are found to be blurry on each line.

These blurred letters can be represented as a 1, with non blurred letters represented by a 0, giving an 8 bit string for each line that can be converted to ascii characters

|            Original           |  Binary  | ASCII |
| :---------------------------: | :------: | :---: |
|   a**s**d**f**jk&#x6C;**;**   | 01010001 |   Q   |
|      a**s**d**f**j**kl;**     | 01010111 |   W   |
|      a**s**d**fj**k**l**;     | 01011010 |   Z   |
|   a**s**dfj**k**&#x6C;**;**   | 01000101 |   E   |
|      a**s**d**f**j**k**l;     | 01010100 |   T   |
|        a**s**dfjk**l**;       | 01000010 |   B   |
| a**s**d**f**j**k**&#x6C;**;** | 01010101 |   U   |
|      a**s**df**j**k**l;**     | 01001011 |   K   |
|        a**s**df**jkl;**       | 01001111 |   O   |
|        a**s**df**jk**l;       | 01001100 |   L   |
|        as**dfj**k**l;**       | 00111011 |   ;   |
|        as**d**f**jkl**;       | 00101110 |   .   |

Highlighting each of these letters on a keyboard and using the hint of "touch-typing" each of these letters can be identified as pips of a braille character when splitting the keyboard up into 2x3 pieces.

Decoding this final code as braille (<https://www.dcode.fr/braille-alphabet>) gives the answer **MAKER**.
