Quite literally impossible. No matter what you run out of time — everyone’s lying about finishing, because I would have done so by now if they had. I’ve studied geography for 12 years and know exactly what states would work, but no matter what time runs out.

Not impossible if you know how to type. I type about 80-90 WPM, so this was a piece of cake for me. Wasn’t hard whatsoever. But if you can’t type fast, this is very difficult.

did some golfing

In 91 inputs:

Idaho, Arizona, Arkansas, Minnesota, Missouri, Georgia, Ohio, Maryland, NewYork, Maine, RhodeIsland, Alaska, Hawaii

this route's pretty easy to do even if you hesitate, I got 50/50 in 0:19 with mistakes, managed to bring it down to a 0:14, and I don't even use home row.

In 92 inputs (12 guesses):

Idaho, Arizona, Arkansas, SouthDakota, Michigan, Kentucky, Georgia, Delaware, Massachusetts, Maine, Alaska, Hawaii

not really any longer, might feel nicer because you don't have to tack on Rhode Island or guess stuff that's already filled in.

you could totally optimize it further. at some point it might be more effective to measure these by how far you have to move your fingers.

it turns out there's actually a name for this in graph theory. subsets like these are called "dominating sets" and finding them has been proven to be an NP-complete problem: that is, there is no efficient way to compute them. so... pen&paper brute force it is.
