Any interesting tech bloggers you are following?

Hello you all,
I am putting together a story about interesting tech bloggers the Vivaldi community follows. So I have a question for you: Which bloggers do you read? What do they blog about and why do you like to read their blogs? I am really looking for individual bloggers, not blogs such as TechCrunch, VentureBeat and the like.β¨ People writing on cybersecurity, cool hacks, this kind of thing.
The story is aimed at our global audience, so I'd prefer bloggers writing in English, but other languages are also fine as long as the bloggers are interesting.
I'd like to quote you in the story, but if you want to make an anonymous recommendation just let me know.

I follow some blogs and pages in Spanish
https://www.xataka.com/
https://www.infospyware.com/
https://www.unocero.com/
http://es.gizmodo.com/

One of the tech-blogs I enjoy is Ctrl Blog.
Daniel Aleksandersen wades into various topics such as:- Forms of online advertisement
- Gadgets / Hardware
- Monetization / digital currency
- Security
- Blogging
- Web browsers
- Networking
- Gaming
- etc etc
He's very critical of the software, hardware he tests, and tries to get in touch with the developers, if something doesn't work -- and writes about the whole process. That's something I do appreciate. I don't think anyone can be interested in every special topic he covers, and at times his writing can become technical and dry -- but that's how it should be, we're not talking about a poetry blog here.
tl:dr geeky stuff -- do recommend

Hello Olga,
I'm a fan of the DuckDuckGo blog on privacy and security: https://spreadprivacy.com - tons of useful tips there.
I have been reading Susan J Fowler's blog since I heard about her experiences at Uber - https://www.susanjfowler.com/blog/
I recently discovered https://codebysisters.com/blog/ a blog by two sisters learning to code - I believe in the importance of encouraging more women into tech
https://painstaking.ly is another one - run by Amy Pettigrew, CEO of encrypted storage startup Arkham Storage
Another two blogs I admire are http://compassionatecoding.com/blog/ and http://stephaniehurlburt.com/blog-archive/ - I admire their authors for their commitment to a tech industry with compassion. -
@dominicw2 Great recommendations, thanks for sharing!

I sometimes go here, security oriented forum and it has a section for malware assistance, which is quite useful when you run bad softwares and you're not sure about the removal
(a scam domain pretend to being this forum, so be careful. This is clean) -
@anros Smashing Magazine looks rather good - I shall read some of the stuff on there!
-
For many years now I have been reading Martin Brinkmann's tech blog, (ghacks.com).
Why?He seems to think like I do
He points out some of the same issues I have had and has provided solutions
He writes like he's writing to an old friend (and I appreciate that) -
Thank you all for the great recommendations! Weβve now published the first blog on the topic: https://vivaldi.com/blog/5-tech-blogs/ This blog is about individual bloggers. Iβll put together another one, also based on your recommendations, but on community blogs (where there is more than one person blogging), such as Smashing Magazine and ghacks
Hope you like the story
