Introducing my new YouTube channel

Mon, 06 Apr 2026 13:58:31 +0200

As you may have seen, I’ve had a YouTube channel for a little less than a year now. However, I’ve only gotten the time to upload a single video that I recorded with a friend.

I am now announcing I’m coming back with better consistancy than ever! I will now be trying to post more videos more regularly. I have a lot of ideas, the real problem is that I hate video editing, and thus I always push back the video editing, and I have HUNDREDS of gigabytes worth of recs, both in gaming and in programming/tech, that I can make videos of.

Introduction to my new website

Fri, 19 Sep 2025 22:44:33 +0200

As you can see, I finally have a real blog to post on.

I plan to post from time to time about various topics, from programming to tech or games, or even tech news… But I will certainly post mainly about my projects, both personal and public, and maybe a few tutorials as well as transcriptions of my YouTube videos into real articles/posts…

As you can see, the site is generated with a tool called Hugo, which allows me to write my posts in Markdown while Hugo handles generating the pages with a consistent theme (which, for now, is PaperMod) as well as generating an RSS feed, managing the post list, etc…

Contact

For now, I am available on a limited number of platforms. I plan on being active on other platforms later - for now, it is impossible to message me, as the platforms I’m currently on does not allow you to send me messages.

Also known as 0xEAF

I am a 15 years old student from France 🇫🇷. I started programming back when I was 9. I also do YouTube videos about programming, gaming and more.

My passions

Programming - mainly softwares with terminal or web interfaces
Gaming - Geometry Dash player since I was 10
Helping out - I like helping people out on subjects I know - so, basically, tech
Researching - sometimes, I research stuff on tech for entire days
Archiving - because archiving the past allows us to better move forward in the future

My languages

🇫🇷 French - primary language, french accent, ~ C1
🇺🇸 English - secondary language, mostly american accent, ~ B2
🇪🇸 Spanish - third language, learning in class, ~ A1

NOTE: I only answer to messages written in French and English. I do not consider myself good enough to use or reply in Spanish. I tried to learn Russian a few years ago but abandoned because I had no use for it.
