People are perhaps afraid of chairing HallC #pyconus? Even at the last moment the chair space was not filled. Volunteered for it 2 afternoons.
You have to go to the green room, take a board with "5 minutes" and similar on them.
Then before each talk, you advice speakers on timings, questions and if they are comfortable if the chair shows the time remaining cards.
I usually ask them about their backgrounds to better tune the intro.
Previous experience watching panels and the like as well ...

After chairing a talk at Hall C at #pyconus, while coordinating with staffs, i noticed a strange keyboard.
Turns out the captions are NOT automatic. Someone is typing at high speed all along.
After talks i asked Tess about her work and it turns out , sorry coding pals, we don't have the best words/minute typing speed. Tess has some 255wpm certified speed.
The staffs also told me that court stenographers use the same thing.
Each typist has special tricks to speed up things.
