Not much on my blog but I'm a remote worker and wrote about remote work for all the covid-19 people suddenly forced into it.

I share practical tips about ML. I focus specifically on things that will make it easier to ship ML applications. As much as possible, I include code.

I've paused writing for a bit while I wrote my book (https://mlpowered.com/book/) but now am planning to pick back up.
I have a newsletter at the bottom of each page and an RSS feed you can subscribe to to receive new posts.

I write mostly about React, but you will find articles about JavaScript and Web Development in general.
It is a compilation of things that I use on a daily basis, so I think it is worthy for anyone who is interested in understanding what is relevant for modern front-end development.

#574https://www.ignition-training.com/posts It's a blog about being a technical trainer. It's new, so there's only a few posts at the moment, but I have lots of notes for future posts. It covers training skills, course development skills, and managing instructors. The blog is new, but I have been an instructor for nearly twenty years and wanted to share some things I have learned from being on the ground. It's a view tha…
With COVID-19 here, I imagine in person training has been affected. Can you talk through some of possible solutions at hand for the environment we're in?
Firstly, there's running instructor-led training sessions remotely. I'm doing that, and I'm lucky in that the companies I work with have reliable video-conferencing systems. Unfortunately, the training experience really suffers when swapping to remote. It's not as much fun without audience density and being able to read individuals.
E-Learning is something that many companies will already have for their proprietary technologies. This can range from simple recorded videos to full-on courses with projects and assessments. It's early days, but I expect that there will be an increased demand if the COVID-19 restrictions continue.
I say that companies have it for their proprietary technologies, not general ones because they'll often buy general technology e-learning from someone like Pluralsight or O'Reilly.
For some topics, e-learning is fantastic, but if you want developers to learn deeply and quickly, then I think instructor-led is the best option. The blog is new, but that's an issue I touch on in: https://ignition-training.com/posts/elearning-wrong/. In the future, that may mean that we see more e-learning supported by remote instructors. This is hardly a new idea and is certainly under heavy testing with all of the homeschooling right now.
I don't yet have specific software recommendations. That's something I definitely need to be looking at - thanks for the nudge!

#575I document the bureaucratic hurdles I go through, in plain English. It's a collection of everything I wish I knew when I moved to Germany. https://allaboutberlin.com/ I also run a smaller blog where I put solutions to obscure tech problems I ran into. http://wisercoder.com/
Really interesting (for me, anyway, even though I moved to Berlin in 2011). I wish you had an RSS feed though :)

Mostly quiescent at this point, and mostly about politics and religion and other non-technical matters.
But since its been going for 17! years, there's enough thoughts on Lisp to interest hacker types http://omniorthogonal.blogspot.com/search?q=lisp

I don't know why you should read it, but I read it to find postcards from my past self, including problems that stymied me, books that affected me and technologies I no longer use.
If you are a new or potential developer, you might be interested in my blog focused on that topic. I give advice and hope to help new developers avoid my mistakes:

I'm a progressive organizer/activist locally, an inventor, built/exited an eCommerce start-up, and very passionate about the future of society. I mainly publish on medium and have been a featured writer in categories like economics, future, work, and more.
The central theme of my writing is diving deep into the how and why behind structural reform in the U.S. and around the world.

The blog has a series on how to typeset Markdown documents into beautiful PDFs.
Along the way, there's deep discussion about why separating content from presentation is a great goal, how to implement CI/CD using a simple user-friendly bash script, a walk-through on leveraging externally sourced interpolated variables within Markdown documents, a way to typeset mathematics, and an introduction to injecting results from R code into documents.
Part 8 (coming soon) applies many of these concepts to reproduce classic novels in various thematic styles.
Re: Ask HN: What is your blog and why should I read it?
#580https://commoncog.com/blog/ I write mostly about career moats. I wrote a post about the Metagame that was on HN's front page a few weeks ago. But the context in which that post exists is actually in the context of smart thinking in one's career. My hard rule with the blog is that I should (as much as possible) write only about things I can verify through practice. None of that 'it sounds insightful because it is nove…
Just wanted to say keep up the great work!
I found your blog via the aforementioned Metagame post.
Not that you need it, but I hope I offer some validation in confirming that your ideas around career moats and the "meta" of your career definitely lines up with my own anecdotal experience.
I find that in my spare moments of time to pare down my "to-read" list, your posts have been steadily bubbling their way to the top.
