Edsger Dijkstra kept a kind of primitive blog on paper[1]. Largely, so far as I can tell and with a few published exceptions, it was meant for himself.

It's a goldmine of course. Personally I find some of his snarkier papers entertaining, but the real value is in seeing how his understanding of CS developed.
