Some of the voice coding videos I’ve found are a little contrived, or seem practiced (Even some of mine were just copying code from one window to another or demoing one small feature). In this playlist, I do a lot of code from scratch, by competing in Advent of Code 2018 for the first week: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL2wTcyeSmhsZuHqbSlLAxkroWIuIpExwx&feature=share https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL2wTcyeSmhsZuHqbSlLAx... As I start each day exactly when the problem is revealed, without any prior knowledge of the task, everything about these videos including debugging broken code is completely real.

Here is a very early(2007) and unintentionally humorous attempt to script in Perl with voice recognition. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MzJ0CytAsec https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MzJ0CytAsec

  I know it’s funny, but I hate the prevalence of this video so much, because people reference it as a reason voice programming doesn’t work, and I think it discourages people who may have otherwise had success with voice programming. You should consider linking to the middle of Emily Shea’s PerlCon video where she first plays this video then shows that it’s actually possible to dictate the same code effectively.

    I don't know which video you're referring to and a cursory search didn't turn it up. Perhaps you could link it?

      https://youtu.be/Mz3JeYfBTcY https://youtu.be/Mz3JeYfBTcY at 4:15 is when she plays the Perl Vista video (note the fiddling around video playing isn’t a fundamental issue with voice input, google slides with video embeds turned out to be pretty unreliable with keyboard input and I believe that was ironed out in her later talks)
