LLVM Weekly http://llvmweekly.org/ - provides a nice summary of what's happening around LLVM/clang. It's structured into an announcement and media coverage section, what's going on on the mailing lists, and recent commits.

As the author of LLVM Weekly I'd like to thank you for spreading the word. I'm glad you find it useful.

Peter Cooper's weekly digests https://cooperpress.com/publications/ are good for links you might have missed during the week. Topics include Ruby, Node, React, Go and more.

Ruby Weekly is great! I don't stay day-to-day up-to-date with Ruby, and this once/week newsletter keeps me informed.

A bit to the side: I don't subscribe to any lists at the moment. Should I start? Is it better than just checking the sites I care about once in a while? How do you personally use it?

I used to consume most of my stuff through RSS but RSS seems largely dead unfortunately. It provides me with a nice balance between tracking (lots of) things but being able to pull that in when needed and keep it separate from other mediums like email. Subscribing to mailing lists usually ends up to me adding filters that move them to a different folder that I check less. So for me, I subscribe to 3 or so newsletters…

Why do you say this? I start my day with my RSS reader and the only site I follow that doesn't really support RSS is HN.
