Hey HN! I've already post it some time ago. Since then we got some changes and more blogs added. I'm looking forward to hear feedback from you and suggestions of what you would like to see here. Also, I was thinking about building an email newsletter, and wanted to hear your opinion on that as well. Thanks!

Nice. I find this kind of information very useful. I would add action images not just logos to the posts. It gets people's attention. I'm in the process of learning how a site like yours is put together. Would it be possible for you to share how you put it all together. We would all find it very useful, if you did.

  Thanks! Currently it's a simple cron job that runs over a list of RSS feeds and saves posts to a database.

This is sweet. Would you be able to add Figma's? They have some really good write-ups as well

Another blog to consider: https://technology.riotgames.com/ https://technology.riotgames.com/ They've got some pretty great articles detailing how they handle the immense scale of League of Legends.

Awesome website. I love reading engineering blogs from tech companies. Gives valuable insight to how they handle problems. Could you consider adding Stripe and Cloudflare?

  Thanks. Sure, will check those blogs.

Very cool! I'm working on something similar in my sparetime. Good to see there's still interest in this kind of thing

Is it possible to add tags/categories, filter by date?
- iillexial 6y ago
  Yes, definitely. It's in our task list. Hope to get it done in a few weeks.

    How do you build a list of tags or categories? From the text? It seems few blogs have some tags on their posts. Does any one know ways you can have similar words be read as single category? ex: machine learnings vs ml
