My mission is to enjoy life and make the world a better place – one with less hatred, disdain and violence, and more care and mutual support. (I'm thus inherently a leftist.)

I'm a programmer by vocation and occupation. I also love people close to me, cats, Scrabble, and cycling.

Keen to hear from like-minded people!

In the Age of AI Writing Tools, I Picked Emacs for My Sci-Fi Novel

The venerable text editor feels timeless and timely in the age of AI and enshittification. A novelist argues that it is perhaps because Emacs is the embodiment of FOSS ideals

New blog post! A what-if scenario where we try to see how a home computer designer might've dealt with the field-sequential color television, had the Korean War not stopped that standards' rollout. Enjoy! https://nicole.express/2026/the-apple-that-wasnt.html

W obecnej sytuacji nic innego już nie ma najmniejszego sensu.

I am not the first person to point out that a “Luddite” isn’t someone who hates tech — they hated the EXPLOITATION OF PEOPLE by capital through the use of tech. Too many of my peers are on the wrong side of that and a lot of us are watching and making notes and will remember.

"To what end?" the reporter asked.

"Blood carries vigor, life force, vital energy. That's what we feed on."

"So how do you get it, if not through blood?"

"These days, we make doom scrolling apps to drain it."
