This is an important topic of development for Open Steno. Machine shorthand has existed in many languages and is used in many countries. However, not all of them are "computer" or …

I still leverage templates and autocomplete from my IDE while using a steno machine. My thoughts on going down to one-symbol-per-chord: - Due to the small steno layout, you don't n…

Agreed that composition time is largely made up of thinking, however once you've decided what you want to write, you still need to write it. The other thing that I sometimes end up…

There are modes, like caps lock, but for snake case, camel case, and other things. You can also do a stroke-by-stroke basis. For example, I have strokes for prefix "is" and "on" fo…

I'm the author of Art of Chording—I program full-time with steno in JavaScript (working mainly with React.) I'd love ideas on how to demonstrate coding in steno. I struggle with it…

The word "escape" might be written "ES KAIP". I brief it as "SKPAIP". For the keyboard shortcut, I use "FEFK" which is default in the Plover dictionary.

SHOEBOX | Ottawa, ON, Canada | ONSITE | Full-time We're a technology-first health care company bringing democratic access to clinically validated hearing testing in the form of an …

Just to provide a differing opinion, my daily office is the place that I feel most productive. When I'm home, I'm never in work mode because I never (99.9%) work from home. I like …

Title should definitely be updated. Furthermore, as far as I can tell it should be "Kitty Hawk" not "KittyHawk" [ https://kittyhawk.aero/ ]

The first thing that came to mind was a new brand of patent troll companies that seek to invalidate a smaller company's patent by "proving" it invalid.

There are lots of open source discussion systems, and lots of transparent ones. For whatever reason, the closed and opinionated Hacker News reached the popularity that it did. I do…

"I hate what I don't understand"

The commenter you replied to was being very sarcastic.

The post is titled "why you should be using a private search engine" and yet there's only a paragraph at the end that's subtitled: Why You Should Use Private Search Engines? Here's…

In Ottawa, I know very few people who regularly carry cash. I easily haven't made a cash transaction in 6 months. When I went to the States (NYC), I was surprised at how hard it is…

BMO in Canada forces 6 digits or alphanumerics as your account password. No more, no less. What's worse, because it can be entered on the phone, aAbBcC are all == 1. So it's really…

Big time. There are various levels of caption quality and part of it is the tools used. 1. QWERTY transcriptionists working brief, 5-10 minute shifts typing as fast as they can and…

I'm part of the stenographer/captioner community as a hobby and you'd be surprised at how many people think that all captions are automatically computer-generated. In reality the p…

I really like Hacktoberfest, I think it's a great way to get people involved in open source. The T-shirt design is always good. I'm sending out an email to my coworkers who usually…

I've heard the center light referred to as "amber".

It doesn't help that emoji and giphy are listed as prime features in this new offering. You're right that the applications can be used productively. I find that my work Slack is a …

You're right, but most communication to solve big issues for me do not come from chat apps, but that's also affected by the fact that the company I work for doesn't have remote wor…

Now we have Slack, Discord, Gitter, Microsoft Teams, and Atlassian Stride. I'm not sure when chat rooms became a business tool. Personally, I find myself distracted more than anyth…

I went and read parts 1, 2, and 3 as well as I quite enjoyed this. However, I think "part 4" is mainly just a rehash of part 3, as most of the examples were the same or very simila…
