What is your favourite blog post ever?

Is there a blog or more specifically an article that has impressed you particularly?

    I reference this at least once a week https://sivers.org/obvious

    My biz partner wrote this so I am biased but I think it's incredible

    Not specifically indie hacker-ish, but I always remember Steve Yegge's post (developer centric). Here's a round-up made by someone else who seems to have liked his posts as well: http://sam-koblenski.blogspot.com/2015/05/the-best-steve-yegge-posts.html

      I never heard of him, but I literally watched a presentation two hours ago speaking about him. Funny. Thanks for that!

    We are all confident idiots.

    It obliges me to stay humble, to listen to people, and to keep my ego in check.

    I really love Backlinko's blog post on link building using the skyscraper technique. Really solid step by step guide that helped me when I was starting to do more link building campaigns.

    Happy to suggest a couple more on CRO and content distribution too, if anyone's interested.

    Everything Patrick Mckenzie (patio11) has written. Especially his famous salary negotiation blog - https://www.kalzumeus.com/2012/01/23/salary-negotiation/

      Amazing read. I love how it put life in perspective. We behave too often like we're immortal. That's a huge mistake to me.
