Sometimes the act of processing information is useful in itself, as a mental exercise. It's not just about training your eyes, it's about keeping the gears oiled.

It's interesting to see this phenomenon appear in gaming. I'm familiar with "listening ahead" or reading ahead while playing music. It probably crops up in sports as well (though I'm not athletically inclined enough to say). Any skillful performance probably involves this kind of anticipation.

I think driving is an obvious example most people experience.

The same post also on LessWrong: https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/gCz7cB6JG66EhweSS/where-do-y...

Different names for the author on the two posts. Same person, or plagiarist?

https://radimentary.wordpress.com/about/

Same person; the link is to https://www.lesswrong.com/users/alkjash.

Given that the two sites explicitly link to each other, and the author's page on github.io points to both of them, it looks like the same person to me.

Where do your eyes go?
