This is a bit sad: @aella.bsky.social, who writes brilliantly about science and sex, says she’s doing better sex research as an outsider enthusiast than universities.

Most studies survey only ~400 people (for comparison, she surveyed 900K).

This year, on August 12, a total solar eclipse will pass over northern Spain.

I highly recommend preparing now: pick a spot along the path of totality (ideally with low cloud cover) and buy special eclipse glasses for safe viewing.

A great series about Barcelona had just dropped on Netflix: City of Shadows.

We watched it and loved it, highly recommended.

It does an excellent job showing Barcelona’s development issue in the 1990s and is deeply immersed in the city’s architectural context.

While others are replacing developers with LLMs, ASML is replacing managers with LLMs

As soon as Trump’s friends bought controlling stakes in TikTok, censorship against mentions of “Epstein” was immediately introduced for U.S. users.

Another example of the “free speech” of the “right”.

Mikhail Tsulaya added support for the If-Modified-Since header to RSS in Slow Reader (my RSS and social reader project focused on building healthy reading habits), making updates faster (local-first after all).

I really hope that the progressive movement will finally rethink the mistakes it made in the 2010s and start including men’s issues in gender discussions.

Just imagine how many more people would be open to progressive ideas if they also stood up for men.

Every year we review @en.sitnik.ru’s post on favicons to make sure we have the best, most straightforward guide out there on the topic. 2026 is no exception.

Turns out, you don’t need dozens of icons. You need five handcrafted ones and a single JSON file. This guide shows you exactly how to do it.
How to Favicon in 2026: Three files that fit most needs—Martian Chronicles, Evil Martians’ team blog
Prefer SVG over PNG, trust browsers to downscale, drop obscure formats—the ultimate, exhaustive guide to favicons for modern web. Includes steps for static HTML and Webpack.

Window syncing is here! Multiple open windows will now stay in sync, so changes in one will automatically reflect in all others.

LLMs automate typing, not thinking.

Mikayla Maki shares her mental model for working with agents, and how she puts it into practice:

I've even seen Bluesky consistently get more engagement than Twitter/X

Example:
bsky.app/profile/en.s...
Once again, my post on BlueSky got more engagement than on Twitter.
bsky.app/profile/en.s...

Looks like the frontend community was able to move to BlueSky.

If you’re also annoyed by how Twitter has recently started pushing the “For You” feed, give BlueSky a try.

An anonymous hacker dressed as the Pink Ranger deleted a racist website right during her talk at a security conference.

This is my kind of internet culture, not crypto bros or Silicon Valley.

Normally, within a species, any individual can mate with any other.

However, there are complex ring species, where neighboring populations can interbreed, but populations at the ends of the ring cannot.

While the Trump and rightward turn in the West claims it has supposedly stopped the “Democrats’ eco-wave,” China is taking the lead in green energy and is literally covering itself (and other countries) with its wind turbines and solar panels.
