The compounding effetcs idea is real. I switched to voice dictation for architectural docs about 6 months ago and the throughput difference is massive, especially for rough drafts. The MacWhisper local processing model is clutch for handling proprietary stuff without sending everyting to cloud APIs. The bigger unlock though is that speaking forces clearer thinking than typing becuase there's no backspace crutch.

I spent 1h dictating my notes for this article while normally it wouldn't have taken many hours.
By the time I finished, the article was almost ready to publish.
It all came out of my brain in one flawless single take.
It's amazing how dictation can keep the flow of your thoughts
Interesting how this integrates. Voice coding’s team impact? Briliant insight.
