🛰️ The UK Space Conference is happening in Manchester Central this week. But, it prices pretty much every out but corporates (500 pounds+ a ticket!!).
Me and a couple friends are doing a mostly free fringe space conference in the pub besides, to be an inclusive event.

💨 Bombing a technical interview sucks. What if you could face the toughest JavaScript questions before the real thing, get instant AI-powered feedback, and do it all from your browser?
So I built it with a friend . It's called Mock Feedback. 🤖

Wow ... over 200 bookings. And it hasn't even been a whole year. People can 💩 on Topmate all they want, but if it wasn't for them - I wouldn't even have thought of setting up an online consultancy.
They've made it dead simple to start selling your knowledge online.

Not sure if it's relevant to my feed here at all - but I'll be doing a session on the UK Global Talent Visa on Saturday. It's an entrypoint for highly-skilled people in the UK to stay without employer sponsorship.
I've reviewed 100s of applications and seen successes - so I know what works!

Used @hono.dev to deploy a tiny server to @cloudflare-dev.bsky.social. So you mean to tell me, it just works?
I get it now.

I walked 20 minutes in Manchester to see @tonyedwardspz.bsky.social live. And I can confirm that it was indeed a talk. I'm not sure if there was tech involved, but there were gameshow games.

Anyone use Cursor here? Is it just me or is the UX constantly deteriorating? It's impossible to know which ones of the available models to choose.
Comparatively Windsurf seems like a breath of fresh air. Better design than VSCode. Simple UX for chat and write. No confusion.

Working with realtime AI. What's the best speech to speech API that is priced correctly. Would it still be OpenAI?
I'm looking for something that's priced correctly.

Tried out this MCP thing! I created an official MCP server for DeepL for (imo) more accurate translations - developers.deepl.com/docs/learnin...
Give it a go and let me know what you think!
