![]() ![]() And so I do try, especially if a conference has invited me and is giving me free registration and I’m going to go to City and go to a conference I normally wouldn’t. If it hasn’t, then given that conference number two, I go to probably has a mostly different group of people than number one.Ġ0:03:51 I don’t feel bad about giving a talk again, but if it’s already up on YouTube, I feel a bit awkward about giving an audience that has come all the way to a conference, something that they could just watch online. So you’ve given a lot of talks.Ġ0:03:29 This isn’t something everyone can support, but I kind of have a reluctance to ever give a talk a second time if it’s been recorded and put on YouTube. I think that’s yours.Ġ0:03:19 And you’ve got a list of talks up and I have to scroll to get through them all. And so I maintain a user friendly Python astronomy library, an old one called Pyefim, and a more modern numpybased one called Skyfield that are designed to be easy to use and learn for the hobbyists that wants to know where the stars and planets are at night.Ġ0:03:12 There’s a website called. From childhood, I enjoyed going out and looking at the stars and the planets. So probably most widely known for my talks at Python conferences, but I also used to blog more regularly.Ġ0:02:34 I have more permanent thoughts up on the site I’m writing called Python Patterns, and then I do have an open source project or two. And early on, being a member of Python Atlanta, I found that the fact that I had to kind of go so deep, go into a topic and come out with a real understanding, I could then share that with others by giving a talk. I’m super excited to have Brandon Rhodes on the podcast.Ġ0:01:37 I first ran into Brandon at Python Portland, but Brandon, can you introduce yourself?Ġ0:01:48 I’m, I think most widely known for my talks at Picon conferences and events in the United States, and then on a few happy occasions in other corners of the world, I often have to really dig in on the topic before I understand it. Anyway, it’s a really fun text based adventure game, and in this episode we talk to Brandon Rhodes about this marvelous game.Ġ0:01:30 Well, welcome to Test Code. Adventure is a faithful Port to Python Three from the original 10 00 19 77 Fortran code by Krauther and woods that lets you explore colossal cave where others have found fortune and treasure and gold. What is happening is that I’m playing a game called Adventure, which you can Pip install. ![]() A low, wide passage with cobbles becomes plugged with mud and debris here, but an awkward Canyon leads upward and test and code on the wall says magic word. ![]() You were in a debris room filled with stuff washed in from the surface. If you proceed, you will likely we fall into a pit. Let’s try east, and then a bit later, it’s now pitch dark. A small stream flows out of the building and down a Gully. PRs welcome if you want to help fix any errors.Ġ0:00:00 You’re standing at the end of a road before a small brick building. This transcript starts as an auto generated transcript. We talk to Brandon about this wonderful game. Brandon Rhodes ported it to Python 3, initial release in 2011, and still maintains it. Adventure, or Colossal Cave Adventure, was written between 19 in Fortran. ![]()
