What are some of the best blogs, journals, e-magazines, etc. about programming or software development in general?
I'm a solo freelance programmer who codes on small to medium sized projects, and I realize that I can upskill myself a lot by keeping up with the industry trends, by listening to what the best in this field have to say. The problem is that there is just so much information overload everywhere, just so many youtube videos and articles that it seems overwhelming to differentiate the wheat from the chaff!
Since reading is my preferred medium of instruction, I want to know what are the blogs, journals, etc. on this topic with some street cred? And preferably individual experts and blogs, not companies. Company or corporate sites and blogs seem to be more hype than substance these days.
Which ones do you refer for keeping up to date?
You said papers/articles/magazines only but... podcasts
Wow! That's pretty exhaustive, thanks a lot.
I use https://lobste.rs/ for general tech stuff. They have a slight bias towards certain technologies, though (more low-level stuff like Rust and C/C++), but there's still a lot of other things covered, like web dev tech.
I can invite people to the site if anyone wants to sign up
