Hello, computer. Writing Ruby with voice recognition
summary
A hand injury leads to learning to code by voice and a live demo of Talon showing real Ruby editing: language-aware commands, an alphabet, command history, and community scripts. The talk names the conformer model as dramatically better than earlier engines, and the nasj community scripts for Ruby/JS. A real Rails controller is dictated and edited, with a claim of reaching speed parity with keyboard in about six months; practical tips include mic choice, custom vocabulary CSV, and keyboard-accessible sites.
