#52Here are some that I've been following why working on my newsletter ( https://weeklyrobotics.com/ ). These will be mostly robotics oriented, and some of them might be inactive: * [Robots&Chisel]( http://www.robotandchisel.com/blog/ ) - a blog by Michael Ferguson, he did a very nice series of posts on restoring a UBR-1 robot and implementing ROS-2 on it * [Mike Isted]( https://mikeisted.wordpress.com/ ) - at one point…
Any great robotics blogs for a younger audience?

#53https://jaycarlson.net/ - His two in-depth articles on embedded linux and the $1 MCU are both excellent.

As for corp blogs: Engineers at Facebook [0], LinkedIn [1], Fly [2], and Cloudflare [3] have penned some incredible posts over the years. Also: IETF RFCs and research papers (esp, from Microsoft and Google) remain an under-appreciated body of work on how real-world systems are built.

RFC's an BCP's are worth following aswell. especially if one wants to know how systems in the default free zone are build.

#56I curate a bunch of them at https://www.discoverdev.io/ if you're interested. Been running for a few years now! Probably have a few 1000 articles curated :)
I used to enjoy DiscoverDev and recommended it to everyone, but the RSS feed is never updated any more, so I thought it was stagnant.

I don’t have any in my RSS feed, but if you were to search for them I would try finding some describing iRobot Root or Mindstorm projects.
If videos could do then perhaps the Brick Experiments Channel could have something interesting: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=MwHHErfX9hI

#60iism.org - https://iism.org Why CEOs are failing software engineers and other creative teams > Here is the rub: new value is a function of failure, not success, and much of software engineering is about discovering new value. So, in effect, nearly everything you are taught as a business major or leader is seemingly incompatible with software engineering. https://iism.org/article/why-are-ceos-failing-software-engin...
+1, I actually started toying with blogging about dev management because of the excellent HN discussion on that article:

and this equally excellent discussion:
Developers can't fix bad management (2020)
