Career change decided program love and hate it. Can be frustrating. Learning python the hard way by Zed Shaw. Wonder if I'll ever get a job or be good enough for one. Yeah of course I am :)
Use a static IP, although I don't particularly like that method.
Or query your DHCP server (usually your router). Most of the time it's possible using names too.
If you setup your own DHCP server you can also do one of the following:
give it a fixed IP
use it's hostname for DNS resolution (dnsmasq can do this for example)
read/parse/grep the lease files or something
If that isn't possible or not wanted, you can boot it up at a screen and run ifconfig, there you'll see the MAC address (e.g. ether 01:24:de:ad:be:ef). Note that.
You can then (assuming you are on the same network when it does some network operations, like renewing the DHCP lease) use things like arp (Address Resolution Protocol; the protocol making a MAC from an IP) or rarp (Reverse ARP).
Copying files can then be done easily using SSH/SFTP (using e.g. scp), or, if it doesn't need to be encrypted, netcat.
Netcat would be something like nc -q1 -lp 1337 >file on the RPi and nc -q1 $IP_OF_RPI 1337 <file locally.

I have a raspberry pi, what would be a way of finding it connected via ethernet to home router/modem and how can I transfer files?
