This just makes me want to get back into learning stenography again. It requires a hell of a lot of practice, but being able to write at 200 WPM (without frantic finger movement) would be quite nice.
Here's a demo/explainer at 200 WPM for example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7jVXrX5TDk4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7jVXrX5TDk4
- TZubiri 1y agoProbably not very helpful for programming. At least yet, maybe if voice command lines like Alexa or MCP Agents advance you could run a Stenographer to voice like 100% faster than what you could achieve just by running text-to-speech. But also at that point you could just speak, I guess.
- toomanyreps 1y agoIts really fun once you get into it if you have the time, are somewhat linguistically inclined, and like messing with emacs configs/keyboard layers. Its not necessary for programming, but my reasoning was that I was going to be spending 8+ hours a day on the computer for the foreseeable future so it was probably worth putting the time in learning given I was already interested. Its much less physical effort to type, but does require more mental effort at first.
- toomanyreps 1y agoAnother interesting demo is someone using plover to hit 100WPM with a controller: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k3muXdSqD2M https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k3muXdSqD2M
