Thanks. The high scalability looks exactly what I wanted few months back. The blogs looks interesting and talks lot about scalability which I'm lacking so badly.
The O'Reilly blog was unknown to me until today. On first glance, it seems that they have lots of interesting articles in my areas of interest (ML, data science, data governance).
I was going to reply that Joel quit blogging already, opened a his site to find a prooflink - and wow! He actually writes new stuff, and even the site looks new.
Anyway, the old-time Joel posts should be required reading to anyone who even wants to be a developer. And should certainly be re-read once in every 3-5 years or so.
Do anything for a long time and in a very busy life and you start picking habits, patterns. When you write a blog for so long it's obvious you will develop a tone, style and way of writting that will feel deja-vue. And of course you can't be a genious every day so many time you rely on a formula you know works for you when the spark isn't there. That does't make it less genuine. If anything, it's human.
Plus they have a (fantastic) business to run so it get influenced by it.
Still, the last articles on password were high quality material.
Oh interesting, it looks like Joel on Software recently got an update. Apart from cosmetic changes, there are now a number of recommended reading lists to help you find articles you might like.
Joel on Software is a brilliant blog. Read through all the posts a couple of years back, all of them were interesting and well written; a lot of them were solid gold.
I've been following your mailing list for a while and it's a great way to stay up to date after a very busy week. So i recommend it in a non-self-promotional way !
Trivium is excellent, it's a lovely mix of both deep and playful bits of tech. Also worth pointing out its historical significance as a continuation of the world's first ever tumblelog, Anarchaia.
https://stratechery.com/ - best tech blog on the Internet. Nothing related to coding but thorough and thoughtful take on every-day-happenings in the tech industry.
I'm the author of http://sametmax.com. And I like to brag, saying it's probably the highest quality blog on python. And I mean it. But it's in french and also talk about porn so you've been warned.
The OP was asking for blogs to follow though. The first link has months and sometimes years in between posts. The second link hasn't had any new content in 11 years.
You've got it wrong. He's not nearly as bad as some of the Apple commentators out there. He is consistent with his praise as well as his complaints. He close enough to the employees to add an accurate insight, but detached enough to maintain an in-bias view.
There isn't another Apple reviewer I trust more than Gruber.
In an unrelated anecdote I thought I'd share about daringfireball.net is that I used to do domain research for SEO purposes and sifting through each expired domain from the major registrars I was absolutely shocked as to how many links come from that domain.
He has linked to so many failed website and startup ideas over the time that I literally saw a link from his blog at least once a week.
His website may be one of the most prodigious spreaders of decent link-juice on the internet.
You've got it wrong. Just because he is not as bad as other apple commentators and him having some complains doesn't make him unbiased. His pro apple bias made me stop reading his blog.
Also: Yes, he created markdown. Mad respect for that!
That's a good blog indeed. Markdown led me there ages ago, and I've been a regular since. BTW, probably the word you were looking for is systemic, not systematic.
The guy hacks and create stuff from time to time and it's very interesting to read. It's also more on the hardware side of things (I had to Google what's a shift register and how they work to understand one of the article)
I write a weekly AI newsletter called Import AI which is also cross-published to this WP blog. I try to cover a mixture of fundamental research papers and applied stuff. It also includes some OpenAI updates: https://jack-clark.net/
This is probably the only automated email that I read start to finish (while consuming everything it links to.) It's been a pretty damn good time investment given how much it's "leveled me up."
An upvote was insufficient t express my agreement with this recommendation. The amount of papers this guy gets through and summarises well is ridiculous.
I don't follow the blog, however from a quick scan at the other comments and a quick look at the blog I think you mistakenly said something you didn't mean.
> highest ratio of <X> to <Y>
You are saying he is very <X> and/or not very <Y>.
If you did mean to imply he was stupid I would be very interested to hear reasoning on that before I dive into his work!
Is there not also the possibility where the baseline of <X> is rather low, thus allowing for a comparatively "highest ratio" of <X> to <Y> without implying a low <Y>?
Not saying that's necessarily the case here, I don't follow the blog either, just pointing out another interpretation.
I think the point of the comment was to praise them for how they manage to have equal amounts of both things, when those things are rarely seen together. Most people would assume from context (given that the comment is phrased with positive sentiment) that it was meant that the ratio was low and the implicit sum was high.

Merci de m'avoir donné envie de programmer en python, c'est vraiment un langage sympa !

"Is there any other blogs which provides good technology content daily basis"
Note the word "daily" so suggesting blogs that are very rarely updated or have not been updated in over 10 years are odd suggestions.
Likewise for the Macalope's column.
There isn't another Apple reviewer I trust more than Gruber.
Also the guy created Markdown. Show some respect. http://daringfireball.net
Also I don't see anything in the post you replied to that shows any disrespect to John.
He has linked to so many failed website and startup ideas over the time that I literally saw a link from his blog at least once a week.

But he is much better than people like Rene Ritchie. I simply cannot read anything he writes.

He writes great articles on security and is the man behind https://haveibeenpwned.com/

Best to steer clear of 'ratio' if praising two traits, sum them or something, don't divide by one of them.
