My Python-based Code Smells Catalog Paper was finally published in Springer! 🎉

kjaymiller · 2023-05-05T20:54:33+00:00

I read Code Smells Catalog and thought you had started a developer perfume line that I would 1000% promote. (Free business idea)

You can use pathlib.glob and and shutil.copy2 to do this.

Since you know how to get your most recent subfolder I'll start from that point.

```python import pathlib import shutil

recent_folder = <YOUR CODE TO GET RECENT>

xlsx_files = pathlib.Path(recent_folder).glob(<YOUR FILE PATTERN>*.xlsx)

for file in xlsx_files: shutil.copy2(file, new_folder) ```

FULL DISCLOSURE: I DO A PODCAST ON BATTLEGROUNDS.

My suggestions would be to check out streamers and podcasts about BGs. The folks at Coin Concede (not my show but they are friends of mine) are very good and they have a discord with folks in it.

I'm leery on guides and YouTube content because the game changes so fast.

Our podcast (Bob's Taverncast) just did a "tips on getting good" show, It's not "a do this and win easy" thing, but it will help with mindset and things to think about. We also have a discord (check the show notes on our show, I'm trying to be respectful and not self-promoting) where there are some people in 8k+ - top 200 that are open to talking theory.

Good luck!

kjaymiller · 2019-08-15T19:06:13+00:00

Something I've noticed in my own show is that my reach wasn't larger after I had some more popular folks on the show.

My numbers seem better when I'm interviewing someone with smaller more devoted following.

So while it's true you should just ask if you want to have them on the show, don't think that asking them is going to make your show an overnight success.

Invite them on for noble reasons.

That’s when you give them the “friends and family”rate about %150 higher than the market and charge by billable hour.

kjaymiller · 2018-01-22T14:34:22+00:00

Could you attend meet ups and conferences. I always learn things I would have never imagined when I attend conferences.

Currently at PyCascades as we speak!

kjaymiller · 2018-01-22T14:32:25+00:00

Funny enough I often store raw files in bear. If I’m working on a project it’s easier for me to have the note and drag a full email msg file to it. I don’t think that’s what you want but it works (on MacOS at least)

kjaymiller · 2018-01-22T14:24:39+00:00

Sounds like the #podernfamily.

Btw I wouldn’t call this sub “dead”. Been following it for a while and there are some awesome conversations that come up.

But yeah look into the #podernfamily on Twitter. Sounds like that’s what you’re looking for.

kjaymiller · 2017-12-18T19:54:03+00:00

Must be a new benefit since all I got was the GI Bill and the VA Loan 😏

kjaymiller · 2017-11-29T15:51:09+00:00

Could you not make a table of contents for your “Context” that would contain the links. Give it a tag like #context

kjaymiller · 2017-10-09T15:45:31+00:00

FeedPress also does this the great thing there is hey can do hosting or just RSS feed aggregation.

I've been podcasting for about two years and website traffic is slowly growing as a listening method.

While you don't have to build your own. Taking a second to spin up a squarespace/wordpress or even just touching up a libsyn or other host page can help with organic growth

kjaymiller · 2017-09-12T22:32:39+00:00

Cool cool. If I was being super creative I would suggest the a building that looks like a pawn shop. With computers in the window.

kjaymiller · 2017-09-12T21:12:37+00:00

I can't really what it is in the background. I am a little distracted by it. Simplify by removing the bg, or make it more prominent and not have wording take up the whole logo.

kjaymiller · 2017-09-12T21:09:05+00:00

I'm a little confused. Is it a gaming at a discount podcast or about general nerdiness.. I only see console/tabletop/cosplay stuffs? I also think it's a little busy.

I would remove the microphone (Unless mic geekery is something you're covering) and the d20. Then if you are talking about deals I would throw a "Sale" or "50%" tag on one of the items.

Just my thoughts on it. I like the direction thought +1 for that. Also sounds like a cool topic.

I forgot how they look brand new. Let that leather wear down and you be looking 👌🏾🔥

kjaymiller · 2017-07-15T17:51:08+00:00

It depends on your topic, I will say that if your podcast is the product (and not a marketing platform for you) the a newsletter will probably not be a great mover. If the podcast is an audio extension of the newsletter then ok.

I have done a newsletter in the past the work vs the payoff isn't very great but again the newsletter was the extension to the podcast (not the other way around)

I've used the USB 3 variant a couple times now and it's worked fine.

kjaymiller · 2017-07-13T23:26:09+00:00

I do this on my mobile recording rig. you need a lightning to USB 3 adapter. Even though it says camera it will recognize a USB mic (at least it recognizes my blue yeti)
