§ Spoken Word Programming
Gergey in his Pragmatic Engineer newletter wrote about companies using voice input. He visited Wispr Flow which makes dictation software that can fix up what you say automatically e.g. turning “let’s start a server on localhost 3000… no, sorry, localhost 8000” into “let’s start a server on localhost:8000” (notice that the software is url-aware). People are apparently fond of the BOYA microphone which is directionally sensitive so that one can speak very quietly into it even in an open office, get picked up, and not include surrounding noises.
