How to Do Great Work

Long-form, old-school piece, but still great advice.

Amen! One of the previous engineers where I once worked had spent lots and lots of time solving problems that didn't actually exist.

Scary stuff: clearly automotive networks need better security

Like I've said since college "everything resonates"

The modern way of serving images

Making images truly responsive is hard. Here's the current thinking on the subject.

If you have a website that for some odd reason doesn't provide an RSS feed, several 3rd party services will make one for you. Such as:

Feed Creator You have to have a bit of HTML knowledge for this one.

Feed43 is a freemium service with free and reasonably-priced annual plans

Feedity doesn't have a free plan, but claims to have an API for developers

Cloudflipper is a free service that converts your SoundCloud dashboard into an RSS feed.

TwitRSS is a free service that converts your Twitter stream into an RSS feed.

There's also a Google Script that also converts your Twitter stream into RSS.

If you can self-host PHP scripts (which is almost everybody) you can get RSS-Bridge and covert any number of social media streams into RSS feeds.
