I wrote (and maintain) my own rss reader for iOS - https://github.com/younata/RSSClient/, here's a trimmed down version what I follow:

News:

- Electrek - https://electrek.co (Basically Tesla news, but ostensibly EV news)

- Hackaday

- MacRumors

Swift/iOS Dev:

- Natasha The Robot - http://natashatherobot.com

- Swift Weekly Brief - https://swiftweekly.github.io

- This Week in Swift - http://swiftnews.curated.co

- NSHipster

Misc:

- xkcd What If

- Wait but Why

- Mr. Money Mustache

There's also other stuff not really worth mentioning - serialized stories (mostly just feeds for a few reddit user's posts), my blog, some comics, etc.

Been working on my own RSS reader for iOS. https://github.com/younata/RSSClient/

Pretty much all the internal logic (parsing feeds/opml files) are also written from scratch, which was interesting to do.

Man, screw using that for multitouch. Going to use it as a depth camera. Been looking for a kinect-like device that I can mount on a quadcopter.

I'd finally get my CFD stuff off the ground. I currently only spend about an hour a day working on it, and I'd like to just work full time (or more) on it.

I once wrote a very minimal IRC client by essentially wrapping telnet around expect. All it did was automate sending out PINGs, but it worked.

Front-end design. I can make a beautiful back-end, but what does it matter to anyone but fellow hackers if a front-end end-user thing doesn't look good, is useful to beginners, but is also useful to those who've been around the block a bit?

assuming by "finding" you mean liking.

The api makes it very easy to use. I would like to get a generic beacon I can just slap on my door and forget about for 6 months or so, rather my current hack of using another one of my idevices to play with this.

As it is, I'll probably just get a raspi with a bluetooth le dongle, and use that (when my phone gets really close to the door, it unlocks the door, is the thought).

what do you mean?

It's built in to corelocation in iOS 7... You can even use an iOS device as an iBeacon...
