βPaul Graham - On Lisp is probably the book which got me interested in programming, esp. Lisp in particular as a school kid. Of course his essays are some of the best ones I've come across in startup/technical space. βJulia Evans - has a knack for explaining things clearly βBrandur - his technical posts are informative and beautiful to the same degree! βDan Luu - is full with well researched articles on a myriad of topics. βBlog | Paul Cavallaro - Another blogger with very good high performance computing articles and writeups about research papers in same areas. βStephen Diehl - One of the best blogs when it comes to Haskell.
