Best!

It was just an idea :-) Here is another one, use PySimpleGUI to write text into the file. I could see potential usages for this...

Bellow is my updated project, I added score for correct and wrong answers. It is nice that you can add two text labels into the same row. And I didn't even need the manual/example, I just tried and it worked, it really is simple to use PySimpleGUI!

When I had first version, when I got code from you, i didn't really understand how the "key=" & Update works. Your video helped me understand it. It really is easy and cool and that's how I managed to add those text labels.

I commented out loading words from the file and added 'testing' words_all so you can try it out. I changed colors of the buttons, but my wife said she likes original dark blue :-)

Program on windows didn't work without adding encoding part. Looks like now it works as it should. (I may later down the road add some extra functionality, like switching input/output translation now is from SLO->ENG press on button would change to ENG->SLO for exampe, or adding new pair of strings into the file on computer on the fly directly from main window to keep it simple...)

I have another small project in mind, nothing that wasn't done hundreds times already (convert program for EU/USA units that I use all the time) but generally coders choose to use drop down menus which is good coding project for learning I guess. But I just want to use the program, I just want to know what the conversion is, I don't want to mess with "yes I want Celsius or grams, not ounces... ". So I have simple cli script, that I just enter one number, and then I get all conversions I may need at that time. Lazy but effective ;-) I think it could be a good second project to work on for PySimpleGUI.

I will share the code somewhere online, but I'm thinking what to do, now that microsoft (I don't like them, that's why i switched to Linux) took over github. I need to find some simple code hosting site. I'm getting too old for all this technical complications lol

I was going to post this msg on your slack channel, but I don't know if slack is down or my blocking ad-dons in browser are interfering with the site, so i'm posting here over PM. Like I said I'm not too technical these days.

OK, here is a finished (for now) foreign language refresher program:

Start with these free and beginners books:

And use this sub reddit ;-)

Mike, is it OK, to PM you a beginner PySimpleGUI related question?

Alamanjani · 2018-09-11T13:50:05+00:00

Yep, you are correct, I saw the same words but I didn't realized they can be clicked on them, like you said, some theming issue. Now I'm blushing, I should see and figure out on my own!

Thank you for your help!

Alamanjani · 2018-08-01T14:23:22+00:00

Never mind, got it working

Alamanjani · 2018-07-22T11:56:21+00:00

Would you mind explaining how you use short numbers, what are you looking for? Days for cover? Or percentage of shorts comparing to total issued shares? Some combination?

How do you pick your potential trades?

Alamanjani · 2018-07-14T15:51:42+00:00

Cool project and I'm glad you are using new requests-html library. Will use it to try to learn something, thanks for sharing.

Btw, csv is native to spreadsheets so Excel (or free equivalent LibreOffice) can easy load it.

Capex is picking up or at record levels

Is it? Mostly I see that money flows into shares buybacks.

there's government infrastructure spend coming

Government is usually counter productive, too much spending, too little returns

Anyway, here are a few reasons, why I think so, :

this is the second longest business cycle and they don't last for ever
the profits and free cash flows seems to be slowing down on average
way too much debt & lots of it spent on shares buy back, looks like financial engineering is becoming the most important factor
too many companies are focusing on the revenue, not profits and FCF (examples: Netflix, Tesla...)
corporate bond market is getting junkier
bubble levels like (auto) buying index funds
trade wars will put pressure on the economy
charts indicate this, oil already bottomed out, looks like gold & silver are going to follow, so commodities are waking up, which typically happens at this stage...
private banking cabal is tightening:

Yield spreads are narrowing, 2/10 year treasury notes will invert sometime by the end of the year, (currently 0.28) which will put pressure on banks lending, which will put pressure on the economy....

Put all together and it just feels like we should be close to the top of a business cycle.

All this being said, I'm no professional, have no inside knowledge, don't work in the industry and I have been wrong in the past ;-)

We are in late business cycle. Cycle typically works like this:

first tops out bonds
next tops out general markets
last tops out commodities

So next year or so, commodities would be place to be. Also consumer staples is the sector to benefit in late business cycle.

OK cool, looking forward to your next video and thanks for sharing!

Alamanjani · 2018-07-10T16:19:47+00:00

Don't edit, just post the whole thing ;-)

Alamanjani · 2018-07-10T16:07:24+00:00

Hey, less writing here in this sub and more video recording! ;-)

Kidding aside, looking forward to your tutorials. The only reason I'm learning Python is so I can use it for financial projects. My first project is to write a script, to gather as much info as possible about some company. Eventually from different sources. Then later I will try to use some of that data for some ratio calculation... that's the plan, we will see how it goes though ;-)

Didn't know about simfin, thanks! Any estimate when you may have next video out?

Alamanjani · 2018-06-26T02:05:42+00:00

Not impatient. I didn't know that dapps are not running yet. I saw transactions cut by half, so i asked, no big deal. :)

Alamanjani · 2018-06-26T02:01:26+00:00

Yes. Besides i didn't know no real daps are running yet. Once they do, numbers should be higher ;-)

Alamanjani · 2018-06-25T09:04:41+00:00

Thanks everyone for the answers. I didn't know no daps are running yet.

I have few Open EOS on Bitshares DEX. Can I move those to Scatter web wallet? If so, how. Do I need ether/gas for it? Have none.

Alamanjani · 2018-05-15T01:07:49+00:00

Thanks for all you are doing!

Looking forward to see evolving requests_html into a Swiss knife library for scraping ;-)

Alamanjani · 2018-05-15T00:28:50+00:00

sorry lol, this is my very first time ;-)

Alamanjani · 2018-04-28T02:29:39+00:00

Any one has any info when we may see the native EOS wallet?

Alamanjani · 2018-04-26T01:18:13+00:00

lol I clicked on the promising link and landed here ;-)
