yap turned "git rebase -i" into "get rebate eye" in my commit msg

Yap
Open-source voice dictation for macOS with on-device transcription

tried yap again tuesday while writing a pr description on the m2. hands full of coffee so voice seemed smart.

it nailed the first sentence, then turned nil check into "kneel check" and invented a Linear ticket number that does not exist. free + on-device is nice until you paste the transcript into github without reading.

anyone pinning a custom dictionary for eng slang, or am i just fighting the mic?

    same on my side. used it friday for a release note and it swapped "pnpm" for "p.m.". had to re-read three times before merge.

    are you on the default model or did you flip something in settings?

    Tried it once for standup notes. Faster than typing until it invented a deploy that never happened.

    Now I only dictate, then rewrite the nouns before the PR opens. Treat the first draft like autocomplete that hallucinates proper nouns.
