Twitter: I am terrible at asking for help! I never think to do it. And when I do, I dismiss it, thinking “ah, it’s so much overhead to involve others that it’s easier to just handle myself.” But I’m sure I’m not asking nearly enough.
Help me! What strategies do you have here?

I find Twitter is ideal for getting real-world feedback on niche things. Yesterday I asked about dictation software for programmers (dealing with a nerve injury which makes it hard to type) and got a couple awesome replies from folks who were knowledgeable about it.

I'm looking for tools to help me program without using a keyboard — dictation / speech-to-text seems like the best way to approach it. Do I know anyone who codes this way?
voicecode.io looks interesting, has anyone tried it? Any alternatives I should know about?

Oh dear, I’m sorry to hear that you’re dealing with a nerve injury!

Appreciate that Andy :) yeah it hasn't been fun, though fortunately it's likely not a long-term / chronic issue.
