The documentation for this image processing library by @vrubaCharlie Loyd is one of the most interesting things I've read in weeks:

Philosophical discussion of the nature of seeing and what am image is vs a map, fascinating technical details about how satellite imaging works and why it looks as bad as it often does, a lot of really thoughtful conversation about engineering and aesthetic process, and even an amusing unit of measurement — grams per terrapixel.
