I love the style of this blog-post, you can really tell that Luke has been deep down in the rabbit hole, encountered the Balrog and lived to tell the tale.
I use a keyboard shortcut to start and stop recording and it will put the transcription into the clipboard so I can paste into any app.
It's a huge productivity boost - OP is correct about not overthinking trying to be that coherent - the models are very good at knowing what you mean (Opus 4.5 with Claude Code in my case)
I agree with this - I hear a lot of hate towards vibe coding but my experience with voice dictation and using 20 years experience in the trenches and so being very specific telling the model what to do has been, well, refreshing to say the least.
I used to pride myself of knowing all the little ins and outs of the tech stack, especially when it comes to ops type stuff. This is still required, the difference is you don't need to spend 4 hours writing code - you can use the experience to get to the same result in 4 minutes.
I can see how "ask it for what you want and hope for the best" might not end well but personally - I am very much enjoying the process of distilling what I know we need to do next into a voice dictated prompt and then watching the AI just solve it based on what I said.
I would pay hundreds of dollars per month for the combination of cursor and claude - I could not get my head around it when my beginner lever colleague said "I just coded this whole thing using cursor".
It was an entire web app, with search filters, tree based drag and drop GUIs, the backend api server, database migrations, auth and everything else.
Not once did he need to ask me a question. When I asked him "how long did this take" and expected him to say "a few weeks" (it would have taken me - a far more experienced engineer - 2 months minimum).
His answer was "a few days".
What I'm not saying is "AGI is close" but I've seen tangible evidence (only in the last 2 months), that my 20 year software engineering career is about to change and massively for the upside. Everyone is going to be so much more productive using these tools is how I see this.
We used https://github.com/pgvector/pgvector under the hood and found it extremely easy to integrate with our database schema - being able to just specify the structure of a table and have metadata fields alongside the embeddings made the code very easy to reason about.
