From Sci‑Fi to Reality: How Movies and Books Inspire Today’s Technology 🚀
I’ve never really mentioned this before, but since I was a child, I’ve been a huge fan of sci‑fi movies and literature. Sometimes I wonder how culture has influenced the inventions we have today, or those we are still planning to develop. Today, I want to take a look at a few examples that show how many technologies we use daily actually have their roots in science fiction. 🚀

Book Review: "The Road Less Travelled" by M. Scott Peck
This book sort of details the same ideas The Marshmallow Test states but with a spiritual flair to it. Whenever someone mentions the 'human spirit' I usually ask for a definition as you'll probably see in that, they can't actually define what it is. With all the 'spiritual' stuff and the illogical thinking which roots itself in clearly, some sort of religious lexicon, I definitely went into the book telling myself I probably wouldn't be agreeing with many of the points put forward and thus, was cynical about the 'spirit' perspective that the book was pushing. However, it did make some interesting arguments regarding everything from delayed gratification to how incredibly important parenting is.

The Epstein Files are handled differently across the globe

The Distorted Mirror of Immortality: A Saturday Journey into the Heart of Moltobook 🪞
I have written about Moltobook before, but today I feel the need to do it again. It is Saturday, a time for rest, a brief escape from the daily hustle. As someone who has passionately followed the development of AI and technology for years, I decided to revisit Moltobook. It is a place that both attracts and repels. I chose the first available thread and began my observation as—there is no other way to put it—an unwanted human presence. 👤

The Ballad of Peckham Rye by Muriel Spark
A dark-comic novel which is often regarded as 'sharp', The Ballad of Peckham Rye (1960) displays all of the notes regularly associated with the author Muriel Spark. Set in post-war London, the novel follows the arrival of Dougal Douglas, an enigmatic and manipulative Scottish outsider who disrupts the mundane lives of the working-class community in Peckham. The layered narrative, the explorations of human weakness and the wit are all part and parcel of what makes the novel what it is.

From My First PC to Today’s Machines — How Computers Evolved and Changed the World 💻🚀
The Evolution of Computing: From Room-Sized Giants to Pocket-Sized Gods Computers as we know them today are incredibly powerful — capable of performing advanced calculations in fractions of a second. But it wasn’t always like this. I’m still relatively young — I’m only 30 — yet I clearly remember my first PC and its configuration. It ran Windows 95, and the hard drive of my “super rig” had 1 GB of storage — about 600 MB of which was taken up by the operating system itself. A tear almost comes to my eye when I think back 😅. As a kid, I even deleted system files from C:/Windows because I didn’t have enough space for games 🎮.

Programming Then and Now: From Code to Building Blocks 🧱💡
A few years ago, programming meant spending long hours writing and debugging code, memorizing the syntax of languages like Java, Kotlin, or C++. Even the simplest app required technical knowledge, patience, and experience. Ideas without coding skills often remained just that — ideas.
