👋 Hey, I created Station. I love writing code, building things and learning languages. Mi parolas Esperanton.

Three years ago today I finished the weirdest translation ever: from Yorkshire to Esperanto. I'm especially proud of my use of "elŝuskatoliĝi" – to get out of the shoebox. https://kvar.martinrue.com

I've been busy – the second episode of my Esperanto podcast is already out. I really enjoyed chatting to Andy Hernandez Martínez about everything from travel to eating and living more healthily. La dua epizodo de mia podkasto jam haveblas. Mi tre ĝuis babili kun Andy Hernandez Martínez pri ĉio de vojaĝado, de kiel manĝi kaj vivi pli sane, inter aliaj temoj. https://open.spotify.com/episode/1oQKyzMH0a3vHS0rEWiLSp?si=f4184a6d74e843aa RSS: https://anchor.fm/s/dd97c5c4/podcast/rss

Cool! I just discovered that someone's used my Esperanto speech synthesiser (https://parol.martinrue.com) to play the role of an Esperanto robot in an audio book. It's always a delight when people use stuff you've built. 👏

There should be a word for that awesome moment when you have a coding problem like "I know what I need to achieve, but I'm not sure about these three things in my way..." and some deep part of your brain pipes up and is like "you seem like a nice guy, I'm going to help you out."

TIL: words such as "i18n", "a16z", "K8s" and "a11y" are officially called numeronyms. Or n8s, if you like.

The four stages of developer grief: 1. Not sure how to solve this one so I'll just wing it. 2. Oh wait, if I do this, oh yeah, and that... nice. 3. I should make this into an open source lib for others. 4. One day I'll find time to solve that problem!

Took a stroll down a charming little street in London last night only to find the house that Agatha Christie used to live in. What a delightful evening.

Had fun hanging out with some Esperanto friends in Oxford today. Even after 5 years of this thing, I still find wonder in the fact my brain can encode any thought I have into a language invented by a crazy Polish eye doctor in the 1880s.

Today I'm going to fill a coffee shop with background murmurs in Esperanto with some local speakers & learners. Our little group is growing, which is great to see. Topics will likely range from the insanity of natural language grammar to how speaking Esperanto has ruined any expectation of progress in other languages for us all :)

In my Spanish class I just volunteered a very confident answer to the confusion of everyone else. Turned out I said it in Esperanto. This happens annoyingly often. 😂

I got invited to speak + do a Q&A with a bunch of people from Indonesia who read a novella I wrote in Esperanto. I love how unexpected life can be sometimes.

I've just heard someone be introduced as "an individual who defies summary". Two things. 1: That's going right into my personal phrase book for a few wise people I know. 2: Goals.

I hope everyone's week has started well. Mine certainly hasn't. I was just accused of plagiarism. Their word, not mine.

And so it begins. After a few months of eating whatever I like, I’m starting another 3 month period of Time Restricted Feeding. Each year I aim to have at least two 2-3 month stints of strict, daily (17-18h) intermittent fasting. It gives my body a rest from the constant energy input that we’re not really meant to get like we do in the modern world. Not to mention some of the other huge benefits (hey autophagy). Looking forward to enjoying hunger and appreciating food again. 👊

A starry night. A reminder of the shortness of things. We’re all destined for the place we’ve already been for 13.7 billion years. Make it count.

💡 Idea Mobile coffee stand. Cups have your name on them. Obvious branding of cup signals: I bought this coffee as I'm open to chatting to a stranger – you already have my name, feel free to talk to me. Sell it at train + bus stations, subways, places where people spend time waiting and want some human interaction over HTTP requests. I'm not sure if this is a good idea or a terrible one, but it would at least make a fun experiment.

My first MAN/LON train of the year and I've drawn the "due to a points failure" card. Proceed directly to cancellation. Do not collect £200. The train system in the UK is shockingly bad. Burn it to the ground and start over. But in all seriousness, please don't set fire to it. It's so hopeless it'd just make me sad about the tragic waste of fire.

It's a new year – a nice time to reflect and focus on goals for 2023, and I'm wondering what's on everyone's agenda. So, what's your main focus for 2023? What do you want to achieve? Let's share our plans/ambitions/dreams and create a little thread full of inspiration and encouragement. Bonus: we can review it next year in 2024 :)

What a lovely surprise! I just received a copy of the book my novella is published in. During the pandemic, a friend inspired me to enter a writing competition to write about the pandemic experience (fiction or non) and I wrote a fictional story called The Hug Club (la brakumklubo) which was selected and included in the final book. 🙏 https://social.martinrue.com/system/media_attachments/files/109/609/420/273/262/378/original/64f20e2b182f45d9.jpeg
