1. The font size on homepage is small, especially for the two columns of dates. I can't really read them from across my desk (even on a big monitor). It's also not clear what the dates represent- maybe created and updated dates for each post?
2. The dates aren't present on the post pages themselves, so someone landing directly on a post won't know how old it is.
Thanks for the feedback! I just pushed up some changes. Let me know how it looks in ~10 minutes :)
Those dates are indeed created and updated dates. I haven't thought of pretty a way to visually indicate that haha. Let me know if you have any ideas!

It would be very easy to add, but I didn't think people would care!
I'll add created/updated dates at the end of each page so it doesn't pollute the header. Thanks for the recommendations!
Dates on posts is nice because knowing when a post was written (and/or updated) gives a lot of context. For instance, your timeline is super cool. Knowing where a given post fits into that is useful.
Maybe a slightly smaller and lighter "C" and "U" preceding them?
I read the first article you mentioned and I am bookmarking the others for when I have more time
