    Fascinating. How times change now employees have to know exactly what they are doing and why. Could be different for secret services even today.

    On december 18th 2021 only less-than-1,5k people have watched this video, of those - I dare to say - each 1/20 have looked for other relevant sources, and eventually have red some books, and final number that now, in 2021 - only (at best) - is some less than 30 people, including some "pros" (young mathematicians, who started to work for some Intelligence Service ) - can comprehenceivelly understand how that was going on ...

    So essentially the WRENS were used as human computers. Working much more slowly than computers.

      the word computer was not even associated with a machine until the 1960s ...computers were people

    She doesn't have a clue what she was doing lol. The people who actually made these machines never talk

      She doesn't claim to have made the machine. Nor did she know how it actually worked.
      She's explaining what her duties were when the machine found a potential code match.
      As for those who made the machine never talking, it's well documented that the basis of the codebreaking machines was a complex mathematical system.
      Most people who worked for the UK government departments during the war had little knowledge of why they did their little part. That's how secrets are kept secret.
      Maybe you could watch and listen to this again in the hope that her narrative actually sinks in.
