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

Cool to see a LangFocus video about Esperanto, which does a typically stellar job of breaking down the language and explaining why it exists and why it's cool: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dK6FCzqAiwI

Aaaand it's out! Here's the next episode of the podcast with Siru Laine. What a great conversation about languages, language-learning, translation, and tons more. Enjoy! Kaj finfine nun haveblas la 4a epizodo de la podkasto. En tiu ĉi, mi estas kun la kara Siru Laine kaj babilas pri ĉio de lingvoj kaj lingvo-lernado al tradukado, kiom mojose estus havi etan kafejon en Skotlando, kaj kompreneble pri Eŭrovizio (kion vi atendis‽) Ĝuu!

This evening I recorded a new episode of my Esperanto podcast after a little break. This one was super fun, and all about language learning from someone who really knows what she's talking about (she speaks 15). Looking forward to releasing this one soon. 👏

Anyone else following this Titan story? Crazy! I hope they're found alive, but that's looking very slim. Insane to imagine yourself in the same position in terms of how you'd behave, what you'd do.

In today's episode of Random Uses of ChatGPT: asking it to go from IPA to an approximation of a phonetic spelling in a given accent. Not bad results! PS: if you're about to ask me "why‽", don't – I'll just make you dumber and you'll never get the time back.

The advantage of building more slowly but with a big focus on keeping it simple is that I’m returning to some code without any doubts or desire to change it to keep up with some trend or major version release of a framework. Good feeling.

I was at a creative networking event last night for the first time in ages. I forgot how good it is meeting and chatting to new people and finding out about their lives, goals and challenges. Need to do more of that!

🎬 New video, complete with guest appearance by a PB! This one's about what I get from the gym and why it has been part of my life for the last 10+ years. I had to eat especially for this one, but it was worth it. 👏 https://youtu.be/Nf_4mABFh9w

When I feel like I need to escape my current reality for a bit, switching language really helps hit that spot. Anyone else experience that? 📚

Feeling great after a perfect weekend of enjoying the beautiful weather with the best company, lots of cycling, sticking to the gym routine and many hours with the compiler. Hope you all had a similarly refreshing weekend. 🙌

I'm curious: among the cycle crowd, do you guys have a word for the pain of having a bicycle seat shoved up your ass for the first time after a long break? Asking for a friend.... 's ass, obvs.

Anyone here ride a Onewheel or an EUC? I'm very tempted to buy one, but would love to hear others' experiences.

In about 6 hours, I'll be giving a talk about my journey to learn Esperanto through building things. The talk will not be in English though, of course. Details here, if anyone's interested: https://eventaservo.org/e/3c6a62

Finally booked all my travel to this year's IJK (https://ijk2023.tejo.org) and I can't wait. I will also be spending some time in Venice again after far too long. ☀️

Just landed back into Manchester with such a tailwind that we bounced off the runway and had a second go. That was fun!

I love the Esperanto community. Simply because I'm here in Barcelona, 12 of us are getting together for dinner this evening. It's been said before, but if you want to make friends, learn Esperanto. 😌

What a great weekend. Heading home after spending the last 3 days in the world of Esperanto with 80 other crazy people from all over the world. The escape from normality (and English) is such a nice change. Really looking forward to much more of this in the summer!

I'm spending the weekend at La Brita Kongreso in Cambridge and there are 80 people here this year. It's been too long since I had the pleasure of hanging out with so many Esperanto speakers for a few days. Always surreal, awesome, and just lots of fun!
