A writer's Ruby

from David Heinemeier Hansson [alt+shift+b] in programming

Looping Through Jekyll Collections 2022-08-12 I recently needed to add a couple new items to my wife's personal recipe website (cookingwith.casa) which I hadn't touched in quite a while. The Jekyll build still worked fine, but I realized I was statically adding each collection by...

Life is a journey meant to be experienced. Today, experience what view transitions have to offer with an honest side by side comparison to the more, exotic options.

When Google killed Google Reader, the bloggosphere took a severe hit and the content quality went down because there weren't enough readers to justify the effort it takes to maintain a high quality blog.

What's left is a decaying wasteland of blogs, most abandoned, a lot are now SEO spam, and 99% are not worth reading. BoredReading is a way to read the remaining great blogs that survived the ice age.

To add your favorite blog, please suggest it here! I get emails every day which helps me maintain a high quality selection of blogs!
