I am a certified legal EN-SP translator (also trained in sim./consecutive interpretation). When doing sim. interpretation, we cannot take notes because it is absolutely pointless. To do the job properly, you have to be an expert in language structures and do a lot of research about the topic/person at hand so that you can anticipate what the person is going to say before they say it.

I was doing English German Spanish translation in Ayahuasca retreats. It was common for me and my colleagues to translate for hours upon hours, often after a couple of sleepless nights. Interestingly enough it took very little effort once we would completely surrender to the flow. In this zen state it would simply flow through our brain and there was no struggle as there wasn't anyone doing anything. It just happened. Though of course no one was a professional and we where in a relaxed environment where mistakes had no consequences and if we lost the flow state we could just wait without pressure to find our way back into it. Though it's in no way comparable with professional translation. I just wanted to point out how much more effort it must be for professional translators to be precise and on point with their translation while under pressure. We would often do mistakes or very liberal translations so it was much less of a strain. I find it amazing how much more energy is consumed through attention to detail. I think about the 80/20 rule. 80% of the task requires 20% of the energy. This is a really steep curve upwards.

Could you make a video about noise affecting health? Ambient noise in cities are often seen as just minor inconveniences, however there is research it actually has a big impact on health, for example stress levels. Not only does it affect the body, it also affects our behaviour, in an environment with higher noise levels people are more likely to end conversations prematurely, be less patient, less generous, to name a few. The book "Curbing Traffic" has a chapter about the health impacts of noise pollution, but you are an expert on going through research and distilling them into awesome videos, big thank you for your work!

I was wondering the same thing. It seems like a remnant from 'times past,' almost. I mean...these days...if it's about finding Information quickly, a rough transcription by A.I. and then a word search should work just fine. And then you could listen to the exact wording. Of course.this wasn't possible, until fairly recently. So maybe they just haven't changed the system, yet.
my mom was a stenographer in the Philippines and holy moly. I was NOT aware that it was this hard.
this is the most original and detailed about the trial Great Content!
Court reporters use a special machine that's more like shorthand. There's no way to keep up with a standard keyboard. I took a class in high school, brief hand? That works kind of like this. I still use it. It's basically a code. Very useful.
I am blind. As a child my vision teacher actually taught me to use the abacus. They were just beginning to come out with talking calculators at the time but they were huge and cost $600. It was amazing what you could do with that abacus. I can't remember any of it now but it is definitely a great invention.

It does indeed feel antiquated. I think in the end what it comes down to is that for some tasks hardware/software just cannot compete with a human brain. Comprehending and translating speech into written word, in the steno's mind, is the bottleneck and every other part of the system (keyboard, software, microphones, etc) is already optimised pretty much as well as it needs to be.

@@user-vv1do1wg1j I just feel like there are so many alternatives. It's now cheap and easy to produce audio/video recordings that would be better able to capture tone, pauses, body language, etc. And even if you additionally wanted a written copy, the fact that digital audio recording is so easy means that the transcription doesn't have to be paced at real time. Here's a possible alternative: (1) Make an audio recording of the trial. (2) Use advanced speech-to-text software, which can currently convert at least reasonably well to produce a working draft copy. (3) Hire people that wouldn't be as expensive to train as present stenographers to listen to the recording at double speed while reading along with the working draft created from speech-to-text. Whenever this person spots an AI error, they manually correct the draft accordingly. This could be both a faster and cheaper solution than how things are done presently. (4: Optional) Include with the written transcript also the audio or video source material, since storage is cheap.

Hi, Request: Can you make a video about fast reading, fast learning and mnemonics? Regards
I definitely admire Johnny Depp's lawyers frontal lobes.
Was in court once and the advocate had a verbal tic where he would say “ehrm, ah” every couple of words when he was thinking on the fly. “So, ehrm, ah, you called Mr, ehrm, ah, White and ehrm, ah, arranged to go, ehrm ah, to the premises, ehrm, ah, together?” sort of thing. I recall the stenographer was staring daggers at him, and her editor asked for breaks every 45 minutes or so, which is more frequent than normal.
Hey, my wife does simultaneous interpretation. You did a great job covering the basics. I didn't know the Gaddafi story but it tracks 😅
Fascinating. Simply fascinating.
what a great video, really surprising
This video was a lot more interesting than I thought it would be from the title. I would suggest a title (and thumbnail) that makes it more apparent what the topic is, currently stenographer doesn't even show up in the thumbnail title because, it gets cut off for being too long
Please make a video that dives further into mitigating the damage to the frontal lobe, and how we can grow it effectively

Many years ago, my mother had a job as a secretary. Taking dictation was a common occurrence in many offices back in the day, and she was an expert at shorthand. It always kinda blew my mind.
I also just want to point out that court/legal transcribers exist. They work with lawyers or law firms in transcribing audio recordings of court proceedings. Although they do not work inside a court room, time is of the essence as well.

I wonder if filling working memory could work as a method to decrease stress for personality types that tend to excessively think and over analyze. However, simply browsing SNS or watching KZread is probably not the best - because there is no requirement to remember anything and there is no lasting skill that comes out of it usually. Video games are better because they require feedback at least and depending on the game require thinking to complete challenges. The best though is probably utilizing working memory while learning a skill to strengthen focus as noted in this video. I’ve been taking swimming lessons recently and have found it is great because it is a break from my inner thinking. It allows me to focus on learning an externally sourced concept and apply it immediately in a real world situation. This is empowering.
Wait you made some of your own b-roll? Just noticed and it looks great!
Mom was born in 1941 she is the only person that I know that knew Shorthand, I'm sure there were others but it's not the kind of thing that comes up much "By the way do you know Shorthand?".................Today I'm part of the Elite that know US English Cursive.

I have always wondered how on earth people transcribe/translate because I legitimately cannot write and listen at the same time. The note on learning a second language was interesting, I'm a native English speaker learning Chinese and I've found it's improved my cognitive function considerably as well as just generally opened up my mind because it's like an entirely different way of thinking and expressing yourself.

Can you do a What I have Learned on lotteries switching from ball draws to random number generators (RNG). The lotteries say it is random. Somehow I don’t believe it or maybe it’s just that when I see it visually I believe it.
I have aspi and I communicate in contexts. It is somewhat easier to process big chunks of information between languages using contexts instead of literal meanings. If I know the context of the translation I can break it down and apply it in a translated context that matches the language. Granted, the translation isn’t 1:1, but this method doesn’t seem to drain the brain so hard. I use the variation of that method in my day to day at work and for writing code. So what I am trying to say I guess is to create contextless patterns of speech that cover more ground and can change their meaning when dropped into some context. Idk what I am talking about but it works for both simultaneous translation and doing groceries without being weird :D
