@freeschool I'm not sure what your point is…
@freeschool to elaborate on my original thought, I wonder why there is still a need—and thus a job—for live as-it-happens transcription (outside of the use for things like life captioning) when an audio recording is technically possible and can carry more meaning.
I should have been more specific in my initial toot.
@levisan Indeed - clearer now :)
@levisan Perhaps I didn't get why you mentioned it... but it seemed it was because it's in some way(s) uneeded or old-fashioned as a profession /art?
And therefore, like many things, it may exist (your point), but isn't popular or paid for by state (my point in reply).
And then to see it mentioned by anyone (as I mention in reply) was also a surprise to me.
Make sense?
