This is still a thing? Where? Why?

steno's not just court, it's still the easiest way to do live tv captioning and CART and such
there's also still a big hobbyist group around it, plover and hobbyist stenoboards have made it pretty easy to get into from that angle instead

Live tv captioning is a thing? Tho i get the hobbyist thing, just didn't think of that.

yep! think news broadcasts and such, certain places have requirements on how much of live tv is captioned and to what accuracy to be accessible for the deaf and hard of hearing

Cool to know. Would've absolutely not thought there's still a need of steno at all. Haven't consumed any TV in the last 3 decades, so i might be really off the pulse of time :-)
