## Programming

- Steve Yegge - Stevey's blog rants - classic programming blog -- some good posts include -- Emacs, Lisp, Kotlin, "the amazon post"

## Science, and Mathematics

- [Cosma Shalizi](http://bactra.org)'s [Three-Toed Sloth](http://bactra.org/weblog/), mostly as an inspiration on reading. My [notebooks](https://www.btbytes.com/notebooks.html) is also heavily inspired by his [notebooks](http://bactra.org/notebooks/), again nowhere as widely and deeply read as him.
