It does look like more and more apps/tools are going to come built-in with - you can either type or talk - go wild.
Ask: Someone commented some time back that they mapped their CAPSLOCK key to push-to-talk. I’ve looked around and could not figure out without a third party tool. I’d love to know how to do it in macOS - map the un-used CAPSLOCK Key to Push to Talk.
Also it takes about 500ms to activate after you press SPACE, so the initial words are missed out. It took me some time to realize it.
Does Handy has a better speech-to-text accuracy? Is there an activation delay?

```I tried /voice in Claude Code and it lets me hold space to get speech to text into my CLI. Not really what one expects from a "voice mode". And, again, not related to anything in the article.
If I’m going to pick my kids up then I tell it to make it 10 minutes when read aloud. Then I listen to that on my drive.
It enables agents to deliver auditory feedback from speakers on my desk as a central notifier, relaying via ssh tunneling.
If this is off topic here, I apologize for that.
