this stuff never seems to be highly upvoted on HN anymore, and if it gets to +30 there's only a few comments, i speculate because new-school HNers don't understand or care. so i track them myself. best two advanced swegr blogs ever: http://prog21.dadgum.com/ -- swegr, fp theory http://www.johndcook.com/blog/ -- swegr, fp theory other advanced swegr blogs. we're not talking atwood and joel, here, that stuff is for col…

Sorry, but neither DDG nor Google know about the term "swegr", what does it stand for?

Given context, 'software engineering', I would assume. Strange way to write it though...

If you are looking for something that is more front-end specific Paul Irish has put together a really great list of blogs, and made a google reader bundle out of them.

http://www.google.com/reader/bundle/user/1116587048495144532...

Some standout blogs that I always read about programming are:

http://www.quirksmode.org/blog/ - Was writing about JS before it was cool, now it just has some of the most detailed coverage you can get of new things happening in js.

http://dailyjs.com/ - a great daily roundup of the news in the JS community

http://www.nczonline.net/ - A developer who lead many FE efforts inside of Yahoo, very outspoken about how JS should work.

http://www.joelonsoftware.com/ - Joels essays can be a bit cantankerous, but also paradigm changing.

http://sheddingbikes.com/ - pretty much everything that zed shaw does is fucking awesome. Take it with a grain of salt though.

UPDATE:

Oh, I almost forgot steve yegge, http://steve-yegge.blogspot.com/ - In a few essays from steve my programming world opened into one of ideas, and not just syntax.

The only semi-regularly updated ones I currently have in my RSS reader are:

- James Hague's "Programming in the 21st Century": http://prog21.dadgum.com/

- Edward Z. Yang's blog: http://blog.ezyang.com/

Rest of my daily blog hits I get via Hacker News and reddit/r/haskell
