Agreed. When we were setting up a server at work we found their how-to articles particularly useful.

#24I'd like to suggest my company blog: https://blog.serverdensity.com
As an example, our frontend engineering team just wrote up a series of posts about implementing graphing in React, migrating from Redux:

#27I actually really like many of the blogs at Microsoft. It's a bit of a mixed bag, but there's some gems in there.
Raymond Chen's blog[1] in particular was good enough to get me to buy his book (which definitely did not disappoint).
Other ones I subscribe to are the Microsoft Edge Dev Blog[2] , Mark Russinovich[3] and Games for Windows and the DirectX SDK[4]
And there's a few that have unfortunately not been updated for a long time, such as Larry Osterman[5], or have come to an end, such as Rico Mariani[6]

This is an American company that strips SSL from many, many medium value targets; if they aren't thoroughly owned then the surveillance state is being negligent.
A paranoid man would go even further than that and assume that monitored DDoS-proofing goes hand in hand with targetted, state-sponsored DDoS attacks.
