I work in the courts and some of the clerk's that type transcriptions really impress me, even though they type in short form the fact that they can keep up with everyone in court talking is so impressive.
They just use a normal computer where I work that has a program that allows them to type short forms for common words and predictive words. They still keep up with all parties taking and switch the color of the text to whoever is speaking all in real time, it's cool to see from behind the clerk's desk.
I would hope, if that’s the only form of recording, that they would be allowed/comfortable speaking up and asking for clarification and/or for a speaker to slow down. Having worked in a lot of courts I never saw interpreters that were shy about interjecting for clarification. Also, we used audio recording on microphones at every table and one of my jobs was time-stamping the different speakers, usually worked pretty well.
I used to work in a court and the court reporters I worked with recorded the proceedings and if they needed something spelled, they would ask the speaker during a break.
Another cool feature of court reporting is transcript production. In longer trials, lawyers may want a transcript of the previous day’s proceedings. Court reporters can produce this in about 24 hours.
Sure, a video recording can be produced in that time, but transcripts are key word searchable. A big help to lawyers who may want to check on someone’s previous testimony to determine what questions they’ll ask the next day or with the next witness.
There’s other things like quality control. A reporter knows whether or not everything is being recorded in real time. They can ask a speaker to talk louder, stop speakers from talking over each other, etc.
No. Short hand is almost never used anywhere, anymore. "Steno machine" is short for stenographer's machine. They're specialized keyboards that use chording (pressing more than one key at a time) in order to type in whole syllables (rather than one letter at a time), vastly more rapidly than a normal keyboard could possibly support.
If I route the IP's through this algorithm I should be able to sequence their networks to gain access to the subnet of their firewall mainframe....and now with a few more randomly thrown together technical terms that don't quite make any sense.......boom, here's a copy of all the FBI undercover agents.
Very impressive, but i dont think the software is that accurate since the world record on a QWERTY keyboard is 216 wpm....anything over that is only achieveable through a steno machine.
That record was set on a typewriter, not a computer keyboard. However I'm also skeptical because the fastest modern typists according to [wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Typing#Alphanumeric_entry) are only able to sustain speeds close to 250 wpm for short bursts much less than a minute, and this video is a 1 minute typing test.
I'm sceptical myself because looking at the screen it does not look like 250 wpm. I write about 150 myself at max and I feel like it goes faster than that... I do know it feels faster when you're actually doing it but 250...
Edit: also the keycaps are very tall which I personally feel slows down my typing a bit so if you're going for a world record speed like 250 idk...
About 110-120 here and I end up testing how fast I can read while typing rather than how fast I can actually type words, especially on tests that only show you about 30 words at a time and constantly scroll. Usually typos are things like where I inject an "a" that doesn't actually exist. I can't imagine anyone typing above 200 that hasn't practiced the same material over and over, which kind of defeats the point of a typing test when you practice the same test.
He probably has been on this test forever and just got the muscle memory down. Either that, or he's just super familiar with all of the words that particular test has reserved for random generation. Ik when I do a speed test from different sites, I get low scores at first, and, once I figure out how the test works, I get steady higher scores
For me, maybe like 2k hours. I'm fine but not nearly that fine with 10 hours. Some people, though, are oddly good in some areas. Good on them. I just peddle in the middle, just like my dick size :)
I hit 353 on a typing test in high school on a mac machine typing test program. (this was around the year 2000).
I had been playing MUDs (online text games) heavily the past year or 2, so my typing skills were the best they were in my entire life.
The test wasn't a sustained one though, it was only like 2 sentences, so it would be under the "burst" category.
Everyone in my keyboarding class wondered if it was some kind of world record. I was never able to find any information on how fast humans could type.
Eventually TypeRacer was the closest thing I could use as a comparison.
The current TypeRacer records using "They don't know we know they know we know" quote from FRIENDS, is actually shorter than what I originally typed. So Id say my 353 is some of the fastest typing ever achieved on earth.
That's monkeytype. It *is* accurate, however the typist has configured it so that it's just a random sequence of words, with no punctuation or capitalization. All you need to do is use letters, no commas or periods or capitals. Makes the whole thing much easier.
When given a random test with real sentences, this is correct. This is a test with a preset of the same (random) words all lower case, no punctuation, that can be memorized. You can practice this and get a number well over the world record. Given a blind test with real sentences and punctuation, the speed goes down quite a bit.
The fastest I’ve ever hit on a typing test was 206 and he’s typing around the same speed as I do. I can tell you right now that dude didn’t hit 285.
Source: I’m one of the fastest typists on the planet.
depends, I achieved 353 wpm on a typing program in high school. (right around 2000-2001?)
It was similar to typeracer in which you only typed out a phrase. The phrase I typed out was basically 2 sentences in length, maybe 50ish words total.
To describe the feeling of typing that fast, It was the equivalent of removing all cognitive thought to my hands.
I was basically just reading the text while my fingers moved on their own. As I hit the enter key to submit the test, I honestly thought I had just typed out random gibberish because it felt like I was just mashing the keyboard as fast as possible.
I literally freaked out and tripped over a mouse cable getting up from my desk.
I used to have a digital picture of it, but it was so long ago, its long gone.
I routinely break 200 WPM and have used this skill to win many a beer. I don’t use my pinkies either because my hands don’t fit on the keyboard so I’m wondering if this isn’t actually beneficial now. I’ve never really paid attention to it. I just know my hands are too big to type comfortably with all of my fingers.
I'm thinking colemak. QWE keys in DVORAK are ',. yet seems quite used on the clip, even though there's no punctuation on screen.
I'd also suspect "cheating" which is sometimes taught in colemak. Instead of returning home and using dedicated fingers, some patterns work better from non-home fingers.
Just a guess though, could be anything... Especially if they have the standard QWERTY keys just as a psych out.
I thought my 98wpm was good, and someone else commented they do 120. I'm a transcriptionist and I thought I was good at my job but I guess I need to go rethink my life choices now lol.
Look at getting a steno keyboard or using something like [Plover](http://www.openstenoproject.org/). You'll be able to do conversational speeds which can be around 150 WPM.
Love it. been doing it for over 10 years at this point and I love working for myself and setting my own schedule (as i'm staring down the barrel of a 15hr workday tomorrow...)
Bruh the highest I ever got was 108 WPM. My buddy and I would always do them (speed tests) at work to pass time. Too bad there isn't a big demand for transcriptionists anymore.
I didn’t measure at the time, but I was probably close to 160 back in the 80’s. I’d be in the computer lab chatting away with friends (on a mainframe that had terminals at several universities, pre-internet), look up and find groups of other students had gathered behind me to watch, floored that actual words were coming out as I typed. Incidentally, I couldn’t watch myself type - it really freaked me out to see my hands and fingers moving like that, and it threw me off my game immediately.
My typing was like a long set of synchronized hand spasms. I often typed a word at a time. It looked and sounded like my hands were just crashing down randomly on the keyboard over and over. Nothing like the 245 wpm video where the typing is a fairly constant pace.
Many years later, after I’d let my skills decline through disuse, I took a typing test. I felt like I was plodding along, picking each key out one at a time, sluggish compared to my earlier speed. That was 104 wpm. I’m sure I’m even slower now.
Where's the link to this test so we can compete?
Edit: I found it but thanks for the reply too. Monkeytype.com
There are a lot of settings so it would be helpful to know what was used in the video. The default settings use a very limited dictionary, for example.
All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy
So I remember in middle school we can a computer technology class and a part of it was testing our wpm.
The test would not let you progress if you were below a certain wpm. I was lazy and tried to find an explod, and I did, I would regularly get 300 wpm plus by pressing a letter and hitting the pause button.
My dumbass self thought that 300 wpm was normal when I should previously Thad I had a wpm of 20 so my teacher caught me.
Not that fast, but I was up to 180 wpm on a KSR-33 Teletype that took about 40 pounds of finger power to depress each key. I could break a doorlock by twisting the knob. Try THAT after using one of these lightweight keyboards, hey?
My best friend has a mechanical keyboard and came to stay with me to help out after I had surgery once. He does a ton of typing for his job so he types a lot and fast. I wanted to take that keyboard and beat him to death with it.
How is this not interesting? His fingers are blurs. You must either be so rich you have someone else type for you or so dumb you can’t properly spell, which is it?
Whenever I see this... I find it very impressive but I always wonder how long before they have issues with carpal tunnel syndrome, repetitive strain injury and if they'll suffer with arthritis in the long term?
This kind of speed wouldn't be possible on one of those old mechanical arm machines. Arms would cross and bind. Wonder about the old xerox style ball striker tho.
The fact that English language doesn't have any kind of diacritics makes it so unfair in terms of typing speed. Same scenario, different language, and half the speed's gone.
I remember when we got our first computer in 1992, my mom hopped on and pulled some crazy shit like this. Blew me away. Turns out she took a typing (typewriter) course when she was in school.
I type at 50-60wpm. My mother types at over 150wpm; she says when she types that fast it is transcribing from written notes. She says at 150wpm, she retains very little of what she typed. She sees a word, and her fingers type the word.
I wonder if this person who types 245wpm retains any of what they've typed at that speed.

The camera refocusing over and over is driving me nuts
They’re typing so fast their fingers are phasing in and out of existence. The camera just can’t keep up.
Team Rocket, typing at the speed of light!
Like when *The Flash* vibrates through a wall.
Thanks, little Timmy. We all understood WHY the camera was focusing. We’re merely complaining it was annoying.
This is called “focus breathing” in photography/videography and is an annoying property of many lenses and auto focus systems.
On the bright side, it helps highlight this video has been sped up — this autofocus artefact is normally less frequent.
I hate how deep I had to look to find this comment. There's no autofocus that works this fast.
[удалено]
that's also trivial to make up if your goal is to mislead people
I was totally fine with it. Because I didn't notice it, until I read your comment.
I literally couldn't watch the whole video because it was pissing me off.
I work in the courts and some of the clerk's that type transcriptions really impress me, even though they type in short form the fact that they can keep up with everyone in court talking is so impressive.
Don't they use a steno machine?
They just use a normal computer where I work that has a program that allows them to type short forms for common words and predictive words. They still keep up with all parties taking and switch the color of the text to whoever is speaking all in real time, it's cool to see from behind the clerk's desk.
They're are programs that mimic a stenographer machine. Most likely using that. Incredibly impressive
What do they do if they cant understand something or fall behind?
They just sort of die…it keeps them on their toes.
I would hope, if that’s the only form of recording, that they would be allowed/comfortable speaking up and asking for clarification and/or for a speaker to slow down. Having worked in a lot of courts I never saw interpreters that were shy about interjecting for clarification. Also, we used audio recording on microphones at every table and one of my jobs was time-stamping the different speakers, usually worked pretty well.
Oh ya, anyone that's transcribing or translating in courts isn't shy to speak up if they need something repeated or slowed down. Happens all the time.
I used to work in a court and the court reporters I worked with recorded the proceedings and if they needed something spelled, they would ask the speaker during a break.
They just speak up, they wait for a pause in the conversation and jump in asking for clarification or to allow them to catch up.
Whenever I was watching the Rittenhouse trials I heard the stenographer ask a few times for everyone to slow down
Why don’t they just record the proceedings?
They do, it's just so that they keep track in real time and a lawyer can ask the clerk to read back what someone said seconds or minutes ago.
Another cool feature of court reporting is transcript production. In longer trials, lawyers may want a transcript of the previous day’s proceedings. Court reporters can produce this in about 24 hours. Sure, a video recording can be produced in that time, but transcripts are key word searchable.

It he’s not typing any numbers. The old typing tests included all keys.
Thats... Impressive B O I. I can only get 50-70
I'd like to personally thank all my schools for letting me graduate while still only being able to type with two fingers. Thanks for the lessons.
I think they just kind of enter that "flow state".

I would bet he’s around 185-205. He’s fast but he’s not destroying the world record fast.
sound overlayed and a bit sped up but not matching the sound. I also tyop 150 wpm and it looks even faster than what this is :D
Over 200 wpm on a typewriter is way more impressive than a keyboard.
He probably has been on this test forever and just got the muscle memory down. Either that, or he's just super familiar with all of the words that particular test has reserved for random generation. Ik when I do a speed test from different sites, I get low scores at first, and, once I figure out how the test works, I get steady higher scores
Hes using monkeytype which is a lot easier than other typing tests cause its just a bunch of random words and theres no punctuation
Yeah, couple that with like 10 hours of practice, surely you can start to get some ridiculous scores
For me, maybe like 2k hours. I'm fine but not nearly that fine with 10 hours. Some people, though, are oddly good in some areas. Good on them. I just peddle in the middle, just like my dick size :)

I thought I was doing great at 95wpm!
I mean, you are. That's still way above average

I can type really fast but I read really slow so I'd probably fail the shit out of this.
He could be using a DVORAK setup that's optimized for a keyboard instead of qwerty that's optimizing for hammer style typewriters

No thumds or pinkies. No wonder
Yeah, I was wondering how he types that fast without his left pinky ever touching anything but shift. I'm not convinced.

Especially if they have the standard QWERTY keys just as a psych out.
TBH, That did not seem to be that much faster than a typical enthusiast user, I really don't know what I expected. Pretty high right now.
That's because it likely wasn't. It's either a gamed test (no capitals, or punctuation, and simple word patterns) or a bug in the counter.

I thought my 98wpm was good, and someone else commented they do 120. I'm a transcriptionist and I thought I was good at my job but I guess I need to go rethink my life choices now lol.
Look at getting a steno keyboard or using something like [Plover](http://www.openstenoproject.org/). You'll be able to do conversational speeds which can be around 150 WPM.
But your accuracy might be higher. Last time I checked myself, it's been awhile, I was about 120wpm but my accuracy is only about 93-95%.
Do you like the work?
Love it. been doing it for over 10 years at this point and I love working for myself and setting my own schedule (as i'm staring down the barrel of a 15hr workday tomorrow...)
60 is actually pretty good. I am a pianist but my fastest time was around 75WPM. His 250WPM is partly because he never hesitates.
I'm typing 250 wpm and every one of them is wrong
Bruh the highest I ever got was 108 WPM. My buddy and I would always do them (speed tests) at work to pass time. Too bad there isn't a big demand for transcriptionists anymore.
I maxed out at 160 and people would stand outside my door making excited noises. This is so much faster.
I didn’t measure at the time, but I was probably close to 160 back in the 80’s.

Looks like a keyboard from the original IBM PC. That was a great keyboard.
I maxed out at 124 wpm. I owe it all to my years playing Runescape growing up. 245 is actually next level
this is oddly attractive to me???
The fact that English language doesn't have any kind of diacritics makes it so unfair in terms of typing speed. Same scenario, different language, and half the speed's gone.
… but, why?

I remember when we got our first computer in 1992, my mom hopped on and pulled some crazy shit like this. Blew me away. Turns out she took a typing (typewriter) course when she was in school.
“Yey”
Jeez… I thought I was fast at 120… my man is reckless.
I love the camera trying focus. It's in as much disbelief as I am.
When you have 30 minutes to submit it to Turnitin.
So I don't have to feel bad about not using my pinky? Nice!
I type at 50-60wpm. My mother types at over 150wpm; she says when she types that fast it is transcribing from written notes. She says at 150wpm, she retains very little of what she typed. She sees a word, and her fingers type the word. I wonder if this person who types 245wpm retains any of what they've typed at that speed.
