The problem with publishing “articles” that are just the script from a video is that the reader doesn’t understand a bunch of what’s written because it’s talking about something not being shown.
I like these videos, but if they’re going to be turned into articles at least put pictures and figures in or rewrite the text to stand on its own. Heck AI could probably fix that in a minute these days.
- MysteryTramp 1mo agoI appreciate the script being there. I can quickly scan it and decide if the video is worth watching, or go to the part I am interested in. I skim podcast transcripts as well.

- vorticalbox 1mo agoI know it says that at the top but my brain completely skimmed that when I start reading.
- gumby 1mo agoThis is the only way I’ll refer to a video, so I hope it starts to happen. I know some people like them but personally I skip them, and skip HN submissions that are obviously links. Unfortunately this was was washed through a URL. TL;DR: IV;WW (It’s Video, Won’t Watch).
