burtlan was responsible for organizing this memorable transcription of interviews, it helped bring members together because we was putting effort into a common good. The search engine has improved since then and nowadays it would be even more useful.
Somewhere along the way, a member appeared with all the material suddenly transcribed on a website, it was quite helpful while everything was available. The claim was that a team was hired for this purpose, which is something that can be done fast with the aid of automatic audio transcriptions, and corrected.
The internal search engine was terrible, that wasn't a problem because we could rely on external search engines to locate information. However, it eventually started to become inaccessible through those means and we had to visit the main page to only then be directed to the content.
The website was intending to compile the work from authors that was deemed reliable, maybe it's taking time to develop it to a satisfactory degree and it's being a mess in the meantime.
But what I know is that some transcriptions were copied from here without any modification, they contained (for example) terms in prolactinese that gave away the source. This again would not be a problem if the content remained accessible. For some reason it no longer is and it was toxic to out collective effort.
We have to bring back the motivation and continue from where it stopped to avoid depending on external sources. The material here has always been easily-accessible for members but also visitors that aren't registered.
I follow many of his interviews on Youtube through text rather than audio, relying on automatic transcription and subtitles, most of the time I can understand them fine. Took me a minute to find the one below, open the transcription and copy it here. Looks like she's into McDonald's and for some reason wants to excise his brain, that's a strange start, but anyway, should be easy to format and fix.I keep transcribing interviews for myself, and not just the ones with Ray, but within the broader "Peat" community. It's dumb and counterproductive if we don't restart this project and pool our resources together for the greater good. This page is not as easy to find as it was before, maybe a link on the forum homepage would stir up interest. @charlie
It would be great if we could define a standard so that the personality of the transcriber/corrector doesn't show. Heil, uniform. We have to turn ourselves into replaceable and emotionless machines.I am willing to chip in with corrections of automatic or other transcriptions, if anyone organizes this effort (again) and lets me know what to proof-read/verify.

I think it easy to do. I haven't seen many transcripts that alluded to the transcriber identity (except for youtube that transcribes ""dr. pete" :) ). Since Dr. Peat is in the US, let's agree to have American spelling rather than English, e.g., behavior vs behaviour and center vs centre. But I will follow any spelling on which we'll agree,
I agree, as I mentioned above the only times the personality became obvious was when some would write 'bla bla bla' instead of transcribing more boring sections.
Or when calcium is transcribed as killcium and Ray Peat becomes Raj
I volunteer to transcribe part 2 of the recent Politics and Science interviews.
Would be happy to transcribe anything I am asked to if we are trying to recreate something like the l-i-g-h-t.com site that used to exist.
Some transcripts made by people on this forum were fabulous, other were quite bad, especially the ones where they didn't even bother to transcribe the question asked to Ray, it needs to be a literal transcription for the text to make sense.
I think this project could easily be restarted. There just needs to be an announcement on the home page. I think a lot of people are already transcribing interviews on their own, let's pool our resources and keep it all neatly organized again.
There is so much valuable information. For instance, someone transcribed one of the Coronavirus interviews a few weeks ago.
We have to start organizing all of this material again, and asking for all members of this forum who want to help and pitch in
I'm responsible for the toxic ones (yet not sure about the bla, bla one). I used to be against machine-transcription, but the gain in speed is worth it. Transcribing from scratch takes a lot of time, it gets tiring, and when this happens it's preferable to focus on important parts and the rest is eventually fixed by someone else. Some of them was made available before being officially done.I agree, as I mentioned above the only times the personality became obvious was when some would write 'bla bla bla' instead of transcribing more boring sections.
There are many hints, such as punctuation, grammar, stamps, format, and so on; you can almost attribute the transcription to the author just by the text. The core of it being doned by a machine helps in becoming impersonal, in my opinion this is good. If you add the personality of everyone involved in the process, it becomes a piece of art, and art is not nice.I think it easy to do.

I think it needs to stay on this website, and let's keep it simple.
Obviously the forum is as popular as ever as is not going away anytime soon.

Now that we can search within a directory of the forum, they're going to be more useful.

No doubt, obsolete languages have to remain in the past.
