Hacktoberfest: Week 2
As I was exploring this podcast's open-source contributions, I found an issue that piqued my interest. This issue, related to episode 47, focused on how to enhance the transcripts of the episodes. The author needed help improving the clarity and understanding of these transcripts.

What are some of the best podcasts for developers?
Hey, great list of awesome podcasts. I’m the host of Software Engineering Unlocked https://www.se-unlocked.com.
The episodes focus on the experience of my guests with software engineering practices such as testing, or code review, their journey to advance their career and often also on how developers build their successful business.
Would love if you give it a listen and see if you like my show.

I Learned About Audio Accessibility (And More!) From Improving Tech Podcast Transcriptions
During Hacktoberfest 2021, I was browsing and looking for an open source to contribute to. I only had a little time at that time. So, I limited my search to accessibility and documentation issues. And that was when I found an accessibility issue. It was on Michaela Greiler's Software Engineering Unlocked Podcast repository.

Hacktoberfest - Part 3
For part three, I decided to take on a different kind of issue - to improve transcript for a podcast episode. The process was similar to what I had done for my previous PRs. I forked the project and created a branch for the issue. However, since the work involved editing a markdown file, I decided to use GitHub's built-in editor to work on it instead. The improvement process involved listening to the episode while reading through the existing transcript. I would pause as needed and fix any issues which I notice. These mostly involved a few missing words, missing pronunciation, incorrect pronunciation, and some incorrect words. For example, git pull was transcribed as git poll, O'Reilly as a Raleigh, abstraction as obstruction. Though I was quite surprised by how accurate the auto generated transcript was. The only places where it would mess up was when there was a slight overlap in conversation, or when terms specific to software development, or names of publishers were being said. Throughout this process, I learned a bunch about transcribing - what may be ignored (phrases such as um), when to be exact, how and when to transcribe laughs, background music, etc. And once I was finished with the changes, I created a PR.

Hacktoberfest Week 2: Transcript
This time, I contribute to a repo from Software Engineering Unlock,a podcast for discussing topic about software engineering. They need some help to go over automatically generated transcript to correct them to improve accessibility, so I participated in the issue for one of the episodes and made a pull request.

Hacktoberfest: Different uses of GitHub
Due to the above, the transcriptions were not exactly "accurate". To pick up an issue, all I had to do was create an issue with information about which episode I wanted to transcribe.

Looking for a town in Portugal to permanently move to
I would suggest the center of Portugal check out https://www.visiteleiria.pt/ or https://www.coimbraportugaltourism.com/ if you have a car and are willing to live 20 mins outside the city then all your concerns are met.... Ignore all the naysayers here.....no you will not become rich here but will definitely live a good life (clean air, clean water, subsidized medical care, unadulterated food, good weather most of the year, people who leave you alone to do your own thing....) ... Try to get a job in an IT org... check out the list here https://github.com/marmelo/tech-companies-in-portugal aim for getting at least EUR 2000 net per month (a lot of commenters are going to say that is not possible but I know it is possible, as many of my colleagues are making this amount, you just need to negotiate hard). Best of luck, plan a short visit (2-3 weeks) to do some scouting and if you need more help then pm me. We should all at all time endeavor to improve our lives, everyones vision of the perfect life is different but that does not mean we should shoot down others wishes in order to feel better about ourselves.

What are my chances of finding a job in Portugal if i don't speak the language?
I dont and i managed, so yes i guess its possible, now i do speak a smattering of the language though. Would recommend http://landing.jobs´. Of course my scenario is different, i have 10 years experience in the IT field and so it was a lot easier for me....as others have said, try linkedIn and this list (its not complete) but its a good starting point, https://github.com/marmelo/tech-companies-in-portugal . I know salaries are less compared to other EU countries but the quality of life is really really good, i would recommend to try, i faced about 4 months of rejections before i got my break so keep calm and keep applying.
