Is there a text transcript anywhere? (For those of us who hate video and can't absorb information that way.)
Here's a bit of info about the hardware:

And here's a little tech info about it:

I love watching his videos. 3 hours of tech-poking and coding, it's so calming :)
"You want me to waste hours of watching someone when it could be boiled down to 1000w of text I could read in 30sec and a 2min video demo?!"
I am not saying you are in any way wrong! I am merely fascinated that two people who are interested in this sort of very niche thing could have such different reactions.

I don't remember a good transcription tool, but if you want to play with APIs, IBM had a Watson-branded one that could do it. We used it at Workday and it worked so well we discovered (the hard way, of course) we needed to check transcripts for curse words.

Huh. Fascinating. That's the precise opposite of my reaction to such things, which is more like: "You want me to waste hours of watching someone when it could be boiled down to 1000w of text I could read in 30sec and a 2min video demo?!"

I used to unconditionally hate videos, especially tech videos, for exactly this reason. Later I realized that these videos are made for a completely different audience - most of them are meant to be watched while sitting on a sofa with some coffee or popcorn on a Sunday evening, rather than technical communication. It's great that you can coincidentally learn something while watching it, but it's primarily infotainme…

Ironically enough, I agree. I loathe trying to get information out of videos. To pick an example _completely at random_: trying to get information on how to do video editing stuff with DaVinci Resolve invariably leads to a video, which is guaranteed to increase my blood pressure at a time when I'm already annoyed.

There is not, because none of it was scripted and any semblance of narrative flow was crudely faked in editing. But it's a reasonable request. I'll try pushing the audio through Whisper and see what comes out. Google will, eventually, do it's own speech recognition but historically it hates my accent.

The word you want is "disclosure" not "disclaimer". You are in good company though, this is a common mistake. disclaimer /dĭs-klā′mər/ noun A repudiation or denial of responsibility or connection. disclosure /dĭ-sklō′zhər/ noun The act or process of revealing or uncovering.
