YES

Currently learning IPA with an ANKI deck and want to become more fluent at transcription.

Resolution criteria:
If, at any point before 2024, I manage to:

1. pick a random youtube video with american english in it (sorry, british phonemic IPA is dogwater)
2. choose 10 random seconds of the video containing a reasonable amount of speech

3. transcribe the speech in phonemic IPA (in contrast to phonetic transcription (which might have aspiration and distinguish between other free variations))
4. compare my transcription to IPA pronunciations sourced from wiktionary

5. use `1 - (Hamming Distance) / (Length of string)` to determine a percentage score

6. score is better than 90%

then this market resolves to YES.

Otherwise this market resolves to NO at close.

Will attempt to record my evaluation attempts with OBS for proof.
