Start oldest first, bottom of the list, and go upwards for chronological order (identical titles are to different subs, so only comments will be different).
Last I heard a book was in the works. I'm not yet sure if it's surfaced yet, but these posts make for a good few hours' reading. They're great.
The secondary suggestion here is that finding a forum that will appreciate the posts and give feedback - note the upvotes and sheer quantity of gold - can be incredibly encouraging. This format also benefits from the fact that there are so many posts on a daily basis all the readers have plenty to keep busy with while they wait, so each writer can establish a lazy pace of writing and submitting that isn't pressured or hectic.
As for continued inspiration, https://www.reddit.com/r/talesfromtechsupport https://www.reddit.com/r/talesfromtechsupport features some great technical writing. Sort by top/week or top/month to find quality examples and the latest top authors (top/all is also awesome, but changes there are months apart) - just try not to drown in the firehose of cringe-inducing idiocy reporting! xD
The idea here would be that the subreddit's sentiment is grokked, inspiration happens, and a new writer appears :D
