The LLM instructed him to gather training data.

#23You might be more interested in books than a blog. For example: The Architecture of Open Source Applications https://aosabook.org/en/index.html
Such a great resource!

I am quite surprised and a bit disappointed that almost none of them have RSS. But thank you!
Not RSS exactly but this OPML has feeds for several hundred such blogs if you can filter down from there: https://peterc.org/misc/engblogs.opml

#26Maybe it's just because I'm LLMing a bit too much, recently, but this question sounds to me like a prompt.
Had the same thought. ChatGPT often tells me things like: "This is the hard truth" or "I am telling it to you as it is (no fluff)" or whatever. Just because my initial prompt contains a line about it not making things up and telling me how things are instead of what would please me to hear. I added a line to specifically tell it to not phrase out these things, but it appears to be surprisingly hard to get rid of those phrases.

I think it's on purpose. It is to signal that these (those without RSS) aren't really "engineering" blogs at all, they're marketing websites aimed to help with recruiting and making the organization seem "engineering-like".
