A Newbor pilot built an entire app while running a 42 km marathon. He used Wispr Flow inside Cursor to write code with voice commands, even in the middle of the race.

The project, called Hypes, is a motivation tool that supports you at the exact moment you want to give up. It is a cool and inspiring idea, but I am not sure how practical this way of working is. I think I’ll stick to coding on my laptop at home.
