Thanks for this! Sorry it had to come about as a result of injury/disease. Hopefully you're not going to hurt your vocal tract -- are there precautions you take against this?
My interest currently is in voice-assistants and developing something like a personal assistant / code-monkey / grad-student.
I did have a stroke a few years ago, from which I've recovered, but it made me realize that almost all of my work, hobbies, aspirations, are tied to fairly extensive hand-eye integration. It's good to start building a Plan B before I need it.
On a(nother?) side-note, my 88 year old dad still codes and his experiences have really shown me how bad we are at accessibility, as a developer community.
One final thing -- watching you work in this way highlights for me how low-level a lot of the stuff we do as developer is. There's a certain amount of just text massaging that seems irrelevant to what we're actually trying to get done (although it can be fun/soothing/aesthetic).
EDIT> The last point is why I can't give a fark about Vim/Emacs/whatever debates and obsessing. It seems like it might be fertile ground, but IMNSHO it's a trap.
