I've assembled a list of a few programming and tech blogs which I particularly enjoy.

What is reasonable code? In an article on The Whiteboard, a fellow software developer under the pen name “Jimmy Hoffa” thinks about reasonability as a measure of code quality. He arrives at six exemplary properties of reasonable code:

• small scope
• short stacks
• explicit data use
• explicit data ownership
• explicit outputs
• dictating instead of deciding

He makes a good case for continuous self-​improvement and a focus on code quality in our development process. It is well worth the read, especially for beginning professionals. And not quite by chance, it seems to be a subtle advertisement for functional programming and static typing: anything else would have a hard time meeting his characteristics of reasonable code.
