Saw a new coder at the library trying to use voice commands to write a loop...
He kept saying 'for i in range' to his microphone and the speech-to-text kept writing 'four eye in rage' instead.

That story about the speech-to-text writing 'four eye in rage' is hilarious but so real. I read an article once about how voice recognition still struggles with tech terms. Honestly, it's because the software is trained on everyday talk, not coding slang. Tbh, I've heard coders have to make custom dictionaries or speak super clear to get it right. Ngl, it sounds frustrating as hell when you're just trying to code hands-free. But maybe with more people using it, the tech will get better at this stuff.

Tried dictating some Python last week and it kept hearing "funk shin" instead of "function". Had to stop because I started sounding like a confused DJ trying to explain code over a sick beat.

Wait, it really thought 'function' was 'funk shin'?
