    I was also a fan of Hex, but development has stalled. I tried FluidVoice (found it buggy) and Handy (had problems with hotkey) before eventually landing on TypeWhisper[0]. It works…

    For the last 6 decades or so, a computer was a machine assumed to operate with high levels of precision and deterministic outputs. Such precision enabled spacecraft like Voyager 1 …

    Oh man that's nice. When I was in high school slugging along with a Mac LC, I dreamt of having the amazing Quadra 700 with its superior speed and graphics. Crazy that the price was…

    If anyone knows someone at GitHub and can tap them on the shoulder, please ask them to revert this terrible change.

    "They" is 1 guy (George Nachman) who has tirelessly maintained this app in his spare time for 15 years. This is an arms race that's simply impossible for solo devs or even small te…

    I don't have statistics on that, but I can say that Verizon FIOS NG-PON2 service in the US (which is what I have) does not offer native V6, so yes, sadly I am forced to use a tunne…
