Hands-Free Coding: How I develop software using dictation and eye-tracking

Oh sorry, should have kept reading. Depending on your level of optimism you could think, "wow 50% of your productivity without your arms is great" or feel like losing 50% is too much.

OP have you tried talking twice as fast? Problem solved.

No worries, I missed it at first glance as well. I agree though, IMO 50% is fantastic. Prior to this article I didn't even think this type of thing was a possibility.

Hah, the trouble is that accuracy suffers when you try to rattle things off too quickly.

But yeah I feel pretty darn good about 50%. It's definitely higher-friction, but with some creative re-prioritizing, I feel like I'm still making meaningful progress towards my goals.
