#2Thanks for this, was searching for something similar the other day, an overview is really missing in this field.

#3I wrote this after having suffered from some pretty severe RSI a few years back and dabbling with coding by voice. In general I think the landscape is a little hard to comprehend, so I'm hoping this might help someone who's interested in trying it out.

#4Nicely done, I had no idea that so many where working on this stuff!

#5I have a list of programming by voice resources on Github:

There’s a section on RSI too:

That is a very comprehensive RSI article list - what's your story?

The short answer is that I wanted to crowd source other people’s stories in one place to give others a head start.
I’ve had my own issues and I’ve been reading stories like yours for decades. The creator of Tcl, for example, goes back to the 1990’s:

Programmers without issues will rant about how they can’t imagine ever not using a keyboard, so progress on voice coding is slow.
Try reposting your story at different times. You almost got enough upvotes. This story once went to #1:

Yeah that makes sense. And then once you do suffer from RSI, you can't do much work to create voice-coding ;)
I think I'll try that. Perhaps it was a little early for the US to post it.

Also, I’d recommend an iPad with cheap styluses to reduce computer typing. e.g email, surfing, HN responses, etc

Unless the Mind Body Approach works, I don’t see many people cured of RSI (i.e it can easily return).
Simply remove the physical keyboard whenever possible.
My feeling is that voice as a user interface might arrive soon:

Once people accept it, phones, tablets, and computers will get a better voice interface.
