Who remembers the first place 64k demo winner Heaven 7? I think I still have "heaven7.exe" on a drive somewhere. Somehow it just came back onto my radar. It's still impressive now, but to think it was released in 2000. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rNqpD3Mg9hY

Random observation: I've seen far more women coding in the various Brooklyn coffee shops I've been working from this week. 👏

Hello from 37001ft above the ocean. I'm on a flight to NYC and wanted to see if I could make it to Gemini :)

I wrote a little post about my top 5 good-energy feelings doing the work I do. 1: When you fix a hard bug 2: When you find your voice in writing 3: When you break through creative resistance 4: When you receive good feedback 5: When you see traction https://martinrue.com/creativity-top-5 I'm very curious to hear others' additions. This is definitely not an exhaustive list. 🙏

I have a bit of good news to share, but for once I'm sitting on it, telling nobody, and enjoying the presence of it. I never let things truly sink in, so I'm trying something new.

As the weather is getting a bit colder now, don't forget that laptops easily double up as portable radiators. Just fire off enough background "yes /dev/null &" processes until your legs are nice and toasty, then "killall yes". You're welcome.

Downside of going from 1080p to 4k in my vlogs: now I desperately want a better laptop. Upside: I'm a bit warmer.

Last night I was at Barcelona's monthly Esperanto social event (in a bar) and a 10 year old boy came along with his Mum. He'd started learning on Duo a few months back and could already speak well enough to us to tell us about himself and how he discovered Esperanto. Really cool.

I had dinner with my friend and her Mum last night. Her Mum (80) speaks only Spanish and my friend and I only have Esperanto in common. It was amazing. Absolute chaos... y creo que mi español mejoró al menos un poquito por eso!

I hope everyone's having a great start to the week. I've taken a little break to hang out in Barcelona and make some progress on some personal projects. What's everyone else up to?

I've been working full-time for the past year and a half saving every penny I can so I can escape the working world (well, at least the version where I work on other people's shit) and go live in SE Asia. I'm getting really close now and it's an unbeliavably freeing feeling. I'm curious... is anyone else doing something similar?

So, what's everyone doing this weekend? Anyone got anything interesting planned?

I hardly ever read fiction books, but I just finished reading The Shadow of the Wind (in English as my Spanish isn't good enough yet) and I absolutely loved it. Lots of unexpected references to parts of Barcelona I know, too, which added to the experience. Anyone else read it?

I'm going to demo Station in a training session in an hour. Say hello if you see this :)

I've been doing a lot of teaching recently and it's a great reminder of: if you think you know something, try teaching it. Teaching is learning in disguise.
