What? That makes no sense. RSS is beloved and known among engineers. Marketers? Not so much.

Exactly, so if the blog doesn't have RSS, you know they're probably made from marketers with no input from engineering, otherwise they'd have RSS on the blogs. Edit: Ah, noticed I made a without/with typo, fixed that, should make about 2% more sense now for the ones who the original meaning was unclear :)

Oh, I read your post backwards (thought you said RSS == more likely fluff). My fault, sorry!

Ask the LLM you wrote this post with!

OP is asking a good question. There's no dishonor if he is not fluent in English, and used an LLM to translate.

"OP" couldn't even be bothered to reformat the numbered list to run on separate fucking lines.

But sure, cheer on the homogenization of online spaces into beige slop staccato bullshit!

To be fair to you, my original comment did say:

> It is to signal that these (those with RSS) aren't really "engineering" blogs at all

So now when I corrected that with/without typo, it looks like your previous comment doesn't make sense, but it kind of did, at the time. Sorry about that and thanks for making me realize the typo!

You seem to be picking metrics for their utility in angrily excluding people who you a priori despise. :(
