Yes, good point. Usually you can filter blogs by reading the comments and seeing the reception it got as well as the popularity. If it is an open source project, you can see the stars on GH and read through the issues on the repo to further filter. Books get outdated very quickly for modern tech stacks. I would recommend them for the fundamentals, but not contemporary stuff. You obviously have to do your due diligence here. Researching the author is also important obviously if you are going to truly heed their advice.
