I have heard the average writing time it takes to write a review is approx. 11.7 hours, but I heard that from the accounting firm of PricewaterhouseCoopers so take it FWIW.

Bet you the students would pay attention if this was the instructor.
like every 93 characters or when the seconds tick to 0?

A bell chimed to tell you when to start a new line. I miss that little bell. If someone sends me a bell, I'll do better.
I learned on one of these too.
Did you notice that JL was using a Hebrew typewriter? He pushes the carriage to the left, not the right.

He did return it to the right and now I know why.
"Hebrew typewriter," do you mean it was manufactured in Israel?
No, no, no. Hebrew is one of a few languages written and read right-to-left. Arabic, Urdu and a few others, too.
I have never seen a Hebrew typewriter, but I assume that it types R-to-L and that the carriage return gets pushed to the left to restart a new line on the far right.
Based on random strokes for the correct number of characters. It would happen once in a very large number!
No mathematician calculated it. The chimp/typewriter line came from a Bob Newhart standup routine in the 1960s.
Just sayin', is all.

I heard once that Shakespear was really just an incredibly luck chimp. It's a bit of a long story so will not recount it here but needless to say, this chimp had to write it all out with a burnt stick rather than a typewriter.
Much older than Newhart. Look up "infinite monkey theorem."
If 100,000,000 chimps typed at any reasonable speed, they would never, ever, ever type on the Bible in 100 times the age of the universe.
It's one of those theoretically possible things that can't happen in the real world.
Monkeys can get close to something though.
