https://bvckup2.com/wip covers mostly technical parts, but gives a good view into what's involved in making a software product from A to Z, especially in the parts further down the page.

Ah, yeah. I’ve met Yegor. Charismatic, but has some incredibly stupid opinions. His latest post for example explains that if you ask your boss what you should be working on next, you are a loser. I would never call any of my employees a “loser”. If your boss thinks of you as a loser, you should fire your boss.
This not how it works in our world.

It's strange to see the downvotes. Why static websites need https [1]. Discussion just two weeks ago at [2]. If I make a polite suggestion with a reason behind my suggestion, I find it incredibly sad that it's a cause for downvotes here at HN.

It wasn't a polite suggestion. It was a demand for the author, who is giving you something for free, to accommodate your preferences.
Looks like nobody has mentioned https://daringfireball.net/ yet.
That's hardly a developer blog though. It's mostly commentary on Apple's business practices and products.

Here's a good one: https://susam.in/ Stumbled on this when his domain was hijacked accidentally due to an anti-botnet operation and his post about it came on HN (check the "Sinkholed" post). Since then I've subscribed to his blog, read the older posts and enjoyed the newer posts too. He mostly posts about technology and mathematics. The reason why I got hooked to this blog is that they are mostly about offbeat topics…

How does a domain get hijacked accidentally ? Don't domain transfers take a few days and require approval from current domain owner?
Also, 'transfer locks' are a good idea, but not supported by all TLDs.

Unless I'm reading it wrong, the text says "Please implement TLS". Not everything is evil, toxic and in need of your downvote hammer. There's no injustice to be fixed here.

Please implement TLS on your website. I am interested in the content, but don't want to spend time on a plain-http website.

Also since your username is 'BossingAround' and you were literally bossing someone around in your comment they may think you're a troll account.

I don't know if you're not a native English speaker, but 'please do X' is not a polite way to ask someone to do something in English. I know it looks like it is if you look up 'please' in the dictionary, but it really doesn't sound like it in practice to native ears. You made a blunt demand, not a polite request. Also since your username is 'BossingAround' and you were literally bossing someone around in your comment…
How would you phrase the request?
