alt Hacker NewsI think ideally you need to practice both slow AND fast. You need to practice slow so you can notice and work on small details that can be skipped over with speed, and you need to practice fast because some things are legitimately different at speed and you won't learn how to deal with them only going slow.

The metronome of music practice is the idea, here. You don't just do something slowly. You deliberately constrain yourself to a controlled speed and ratchet it up as you go.
As my guitar teacher used to say, “Slow is fast”. Mastering the techniques slowly and increasing speed until you’re “at speed” is the way to go.
Like riding a bike, you start slow with training wheels (or a helicopter parent) and work your way up to Yolo no-hander off that kicker ramp at 40 kph.
