Hi there! I'm in the early stages of building a blogging platform just for programmers. My main criteria was ease-of-use and that it support code-highlighting out of the box. You can check out what I have so far at www.progblog.io. I must warn you, that it is NOT a mature app at all, and I wouldn't even call it alpha. I will be releasing (and announcing) something here on HN in about 2 or 3 weeks, with a much nicer design (similar to Medium in its simplicity) and a more natural workflow than what exists today.

I do sometimes wish that I had "the college experience", the dorms, the parties, the social aspect and forming long-term friendships with people.

However, as it seems that the most common reason people go to college is to be able to get a good job afterwards, and I currently have a well-paying job that I enjoy very much (programming), and no college debt, I call that a success.

Having the "college experience" is not worth the thousands of dollars of debt that I see my friends and peers struggling to pay off, especially for those who did not go into a well-paying field like programming.
