Anybody remember the URL of that one psychiatrist blog? Paraphrasing a quote from there: "No, I can't be narcissistic, I hate myself too much! In fact, I spend all day looking in the mirror and thinking about how much I hate myself."

Sounds like it might be The Last Psychiatrist? https://thelastpsychiatrist.com/

Considering the subject matter, could be Alone/The Last Psychiatrist @ https://thelastpsychiatrist.com

I think that's the one, thanks.

This is such a great thread, I'm excited to begin reading quite a few of the linked blogs (such as this one: https://acoup.blog/ ).

Great thread, found lots of people to add to my feedly. Surprised to see no one has yet mentioned https://filfre.net — The Digital Antiquarian — a frequently upvoted domain: https://news.ycombinator.com/from?site=filfre.net

This blog is a gold mine, or a deep well. A deep well of gold.

I would love to just download them onto my Kindle and enjoy them out in the sun with a [insert beverage].

A couple of my favorite blogs - http://antirez.com/ - https://martin.kleppmann.com/archive.html - https://devblogs.microsoft.com/oldnewthing - https://ma.tt/ - https://www.allthingsdistributed.com/ - https://jvns.ca/ - https://www.johndcook.com/blog - http://feross.org/ - https://ridiculousfish.com/blog/ - https://blog.andrewcantino.com/ - https://nickcraver.com/blog/ - https://blog.acolyer.org - https://blog.codingh…

https://ma.tt I wonder how much that domain costs. 2-letter domains are always sold at a premium regardless of TLD.

According to nic.tt it ranges from 600 to 2000$ for 3 years. If the domain was bought on aftermarket, it was probably way more expansive though
