I am 100% your target demographic. My hands are completely fried and I'm scheduled for double carpal tunnel surgeries. I am also being forced to go back to work in an open landscape office where I can't use voice dictation. A product like this is literally what I have been looking for over the past few years.

With that said I live in Europe... Do you have any plans to ship to Europe?

> Plus it has poor Typescript support.

Vue 3 has excellent Typescript support. It's even built in Typescript. What exactly are you referring to when you say that it's "poor"?

Impressive, I'm looking forward to seeing more of this project. Did you draw inspiration from Talon? There are a lot of similarities when it comes to the voice commands.

Were they internal or external apps? Because latency was the problem last time I looked, and it won't be super noticeable if you have the servers that close to you.

Last time I looked at Blazor it only had two options, which were both equally horrible for public websites.

You either had to ship a big and bloated WASM file, which was at least 10x the size of competing JS frameworks, and in some cases 100X the size. Or you had to render all dynamic parts of your website on the server, which made latency a huge problem, since your website feels sluggish between each interaction.

Does it affect your vision when using them for many hours? Whenever I use VR headsets for more than 1 hour I tend to get blurry vision once I take them off, since my eyes have adjusted to having the screen so close to them.

I am super interested in getting the nreal glasses for work. But I'm also a bit hesitant due to this.

I'm not sure where you get the impression that people who would benefit from this tool have no friends. That requires some quite absurd mental gymnastics.

I don't have any experience with vim or other alternatives, but after reading that article or seems like kakoune is way better in practice. I wonder why Lapce didn't go with "object -> verb".

It sounds like Serenade.ai would be more useful to you. It is more of a complete product, with the ability to add custom commands on top of it. Plus it's open source.

I'm not trying to steal the spotlight from Talon/Cursorless though, they are amazing and super useful. But it is definitely a much more fragmented ecosystem which requires more work.

V looks interesting, and I wish it the very best. However the attitude of the lead developers toward criticism or negative feedback (even if it's not valid) is highly off-putting imo. Everything negative that people say appear to be taken as an "attack", and as far as I've seen they are quick on the trigger in regards to banning or blocking people that they disagree with. And at the very least they just completely disregard all negative feedback as lies, scams, conspiracies, etc.

The responses I've read by the devs are in stark contrast to what I've seen in other languages I use, such as Rust. I hope that as the language evolves, the developers will start reflecting on the way that they interact with others and how it impacts people's view of V. I could never justify using a language like V in production if I couldn't even trust the lead developers to be level-headed during criticism.

I'm sorry for ranting, I really wish the best for V and its maintainers.

Yeah it appear that they made the framework page their home page now, which is much better.

Not to mention that the landing page says absolutely nothing about what it is. Just saying that it's a framework means nothing. A framework can be a lot of different things.

Sorry to sound so negative.

I'm not the same person that you responded to, but I feel much less secure in TS than in C# due to the fact that typing is not a requirement, and that type definitions might differ from the actual library/framework code. It's still a big improvement over plain JS though.

The developer time isn't higher than if it was server side rendered. And for some applications, like the ones I'm building, it would be impossible to do the work on the server.

I even have the browser and code on the monitor at the same time. And with pretty much all modern web frameworks you have a dev server that automatically does hot module replacement, so you instantly see your changes without reloading anything yourself.
