My favorite secret to baking healthier: white whole wheat flour

from Liz Denys [alt+shift+b] in programming

over a year ago
Replacing white bread with wheat bread has been becoming more and more popular recently, and people seem to be wondering how to generally add more whole grains to their diets. This doesn't come as much of a surprise: whole grains haven't had their bran and germ removed through...

We're moving continuous integration back to developer machines

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

Between running Rubocop style rules, Brakeman security scans, and model-controller-system tests, it takes our remote BuildKite-based continuous integration setup about 5m30s to verify a code change is ready to ship for HEY. My Intel 14900K-based Linux box can do that in less than...

flapi.sh: a tiny command-line tool for experimenting with the Flickr API &rarr;

from alexwlchan [alt+shift+b] in programming

The Night Time Sky

Read more about RSS Club. When I was a kid, my Dad used to take us outside to look for what he called “UFOs”. It’d take a moment, but after enough searching we’d eventually spot one. One night, all of us kids were outside with our uncle. We saw a star-like light moving in...

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!
