Oh thank you! I sorely miss the original HS website.

Hear hear. The word "Technology" has also been redefined to mean computer or phone stuff. As a real (manly) engineer, this pisses me off no end! :-)

To answer the OP, this Civil engineering blog / video site is really good. I always learn something new, and his enthusiasm is infectious. Well worth giving it a look:

And worse - when I open Google News all the news under Technology is about the latest mobile phones and "gadgets".

I am quite surprised and a bit disappointed that almost none of them have RSS.

But thank you!

I remember Firefox used to have this cool feature where you could detect any RSS feeds on the page you have open.

Now if I don't see it on a page I check the page source - some blogs don't advertise the feed but it's there.

Pretty much everything is down (checking from the Netherlands). The Cloudflare dashboard itself is experiencing an outage as well.

Not-so-funny thing is that the Betterstack dashboard is down but our status page hosted by Betterstack is up, and we can't access the dashboard to create an incident and let our customers know what's going on.

Edit: wording.

BetterStack did report issues with some of their services, but they were not very informative.

- What I'm working on right now - https://incidenthub.cloud - It monitors cloud/SaaS status pages. I'm working on some white-labeling features.

- New ideas - Easier way for new users to try out the product. It's currently a few steps, but I want to optimize it for specific user personas.

Agree, it's unintuitive, and I'll fix that. No problem, thanks for finding time to write the feedback. I really appreciate it.
