Online magazines

  • Martin Fowlers Blog: On all things technical and software. Some of the content has been written a while ago but it’s a great place to start when looking for debug techniques and best-practices on a whole range of problems.

  • Medium (duh…): I accidentally got subscribed to the “Daily Digest” some time ago, but never bothered to quit as there were some interesting articles here and there. I still refuse to accept that the “we just spam them with mail everyday until they join” method actually worked, so I have to use every VPN at my disposable to read as many articles as possible without getting membership.

  • Works in Progress: Interesting essays on the intersection of technology and society, with a slight leaning towards AI and a healthy dose of comments on policy.
