funous··on Staring at a Wall: Embracing Deliberate Boredom
My middle ground for this is walking. It gives me enough input to suppress my habit of entertaining myself using a smartphone, and it also makes staring at a screen quite impractical. But it gives me enough room to just process my thoughts.
funous··on What Does a Coder Do If They Can't Type?
Speech recognition developer here - I hear many people complaining about the accuracy of speech recognition hindering multiple use-cases. I work for a lesser known speech recognition company Speechmatics [1] and accuracy is our top priority. We do have a real-time speech recognition API available, adding it as an alternative speech recognition provider for some of the tools mentioned here might improve the experience for end-users. I've got in touch with our team to see if there is any way we can get involved.
