Podcast no longer being generated

[ryanakca]

The podcasts used to be generated twice daily, but there haven't been any since December 8th. I'm happy to prod around in the sources next week to try to figure out what's going on if needed.

Thanks for letting me know. These are re enabled now. The problem is that Github disables actions every 60 days if there’s no activity and I sometimes miss the emails. I just need to move the podcast production onto my AWS or Azure account to keep it going indefinitely. My goal is to knock this out before year end. I just ran the workflow and a new episode should be out shortly.

Hi, it looks like Github disabled generation again. AFAICT, there hasn't been a new 25wpm podcast generated since August 19.

Best,
Ryan

I'm seeing that the podcast is no longer being generated again, this time as of 6 January 2025. From this thread, I see that it's likely a matter of just having to keep up with an email from GitHub every 60 days, but even then, if it helps I'd gladly pay a few bucks for hosting or whatever. This podcast, the 10 WPM one so far, has gotten me further than anything else in learning Morse. And I expect the other podcasts will be the best thing to improve my speed as I get better.

Thanks Andy, it's back on. It's really not a cost issue, but just a time cost issue of moving it over to something like at Azure Function that runs twice a day and doesn't get turned off. I've put an issue here with my steps #23

Glad to hear that's it's helping you.

Lets see if this fixes it :) - https://github.com/mdp/morse.mdp.im/actions/runs/12759695645

I assume it's (hopefully) not smart enough to differ between automated and human commits, but we'll know in 60 days.

Thanks! Yes, it's fantastic. Helps a ton
