       I love what Prot and DT are doing for teaching #emacs but 40 minute old movies are not the best use of time. Is anyone else doing something like them in text form? Or is everything on planet emacs?

       @mms I also have no use for videos because information density is way too low, so I read Planet Emacs.If you have little time, @sachac regularly posts summaries about interesting things happening in the Emacs world. Highly recommended.

       @mms I discovered the Universal Summarizer by Kagi yesterday. Given a YouTube URL it will present you a textual summary of this video.I used it to reduce a 2h System Crafters video to a summary I could read in half a minute. It's pretty amazing.https://kagi.com/summarizer/index.html

       @mms Prot's RSS feed codelog is worth adding to your Elfeed subscriptionshttps://protesilaos.com/codelog.xml

       @galdor @mms I use elfeed-tube to skim captions for videos like that, or I listen to things at 2x speed. (Or 3x, if I'm at my computer and have mpv.) I'm still too impatient to watch videos too, which is part of the reason why I like the way many EmacsConf videos are captioned.

       @mms You could download the video, apply "whisper" and get the subtitles which can be read or searched.

       @mms @galdor I've been using Deepgram's API to get quick Whisper transcripts of videos and audio files, since my computer can't handle it by itself.
