we've started tracking the ongoing and upcoming projects better on the e18e site

hopefully this gives a better idea of the things we're building!

Well, the experiment of routing all my RSS feeds into an email client didn't work out. Back to a dedicated RSS reader. Giving inoreader a try this time, until @en.sitnik.ru releases his app

I’m close to finishing the first public prototype of my RSS and social-media reader.

At first, we’ll be testing RSS only, of course.

Then we’ll make the first public release and see how well the reader helps develop healthy content-consumption habits.

Europe has plenty of problems that need solving.

But it’s surprising how the brain-virus of ‘Europe only produces regulations’ has taken root.

In reality, EU exports are higher than the US and comparable to China’s.

Or in supercomputing, Europe ranks 2nd in the world.

Men should touch each other more.

Men are lonely, and they need non-erotic physical touch. But it’s taboo in Western culture.

Journalist challenge: Use “Machine Learning” when you mean machine learning and “LLM” when you mean LLM. Ditch “AI” as a catch-all term, it’s not useful for readers and it helps companies trying to confuse the public by obscuring the roles played by different technologies. 🧪

i have a growing @e18e.dev roadmap of very useful tools we could all benefit from

to make it happen, we need two things: sponsors, and leads/champions 👀

if you're interested in either, come chat to me and i'd be happy to show you through the roadmap we have!

I remain forever disappointed in “online safety” advice for families being about banning phones and social media.
And very rarely about having conversations, explaining risks and reflecting as adults on what we trust

The adults are the ones who need the most advice, in my opinion

Pixel Watch (1st photo) was inspired by the mechanical Ressence Type 3 (2nd photo).

It’s amazing how Ressence managed to create the feeling of a screen in a mechanical watch using oil.

And in version 4, Google even added a watchface that works very similarly to the original.

Barcelona Airport has a cute little airplane museum that’s free and open for just a couple of hours on weekends.

There’s even a replica of the Soviet I-15, which the Republic received from the USSR during the Civil War to fight the fascists.

Female allies celebrate #InternationalMensDay today. Thanks for all that you do!
November 19, 2025 at 2:42 PM
Today is International Men’s Day, and the only country that celebrated it properly is the UK.

They launched a men’s health program.

The fact that in most countries men live shorter, and we have no dedicated programs to address this gap, is a failure of modern ethics.

We released Nano Stores 1.1.

deepmap() became a bit too complex for the core, so we moved it to @nanostores/deepmap. The old API is now marked as deprecated and will be removed in 2.0.

A bunch of very different porn studios have come together (including mainstream, high-budget, and art-house ones) to form the Adult Studio Alliance and create the first code of conduct for porn studios.

A very cool initiative.

In modern memory, only about a dozen electrons separate 0 from 1.

Cells are so tiny they hold only a few hundred extra electrons.

And since up to 4 bits go into one cell, the level difference is just a few dozen electrons.

Found a new use for pre-commit hook managers like nano-staged. An LLM can quickly check only the files that changed.

I added `pnpm quick`, which calls `nano-staged --unstaged`, and instructed to always run it in AGENTS.md.

COVID-19 has killed more men than women.

Research says it’s not about biology, but about society. Mortality differences varied greatly across states depending on their policies and culture.

We need to change society so that men stop dying.

I believe more in a future where humanity is a blend of digitized personalities and AI.

The better you earn, the more copies you can create.

This leads to stratification where 99% of computational power belong to a dozen individuals whose copy-clans are on a godlike level.

A cool new Chinese tech channel.

For example, they ran a two-year experiment to test how fast charging affects battery health (turns out it only reduces it by a couple of percent).

We really think that it is important for our ecosystem to migrate from GA to many privacy-first analytics like @plausible.io.
