2025 in Review for #RBMWelcome to the end of the year review for Read Before Monday! This is the last edition before the two weeks that I won’t be posting. So, here’s our year in recap 🙂 If there’s one thing this year reinforced, it’s this: technology doesn’t fix systems. It exposes them. The ones that held up in 2025 weren’t the most advanced, they were the ones that remembered their constraints. Despite the pressure points, the year closed with something quietly reassuring: systems still respond to care, not hype, where constraints were understood, progress held and where people chose stewardship over speed, the future remained workable. See you in 2026 with year predictions!

The Premise
What you need to read before your busy Monday, published every Sunday

Read Before Monday is a weekly newsletter from Vitor Domingos - with a handful of articles, essays and oddities collected over the week, annotated with a short opinion, and sent before Monday morning.

No breaking news. No ten-thousand-word think pieces. No affiliate links. Just a small, curated and considered list of things worth sitting with.
