Why this newsletter (and what to expect)

Most technical newsletters are an aggregator with a greeting. This one isn't. Every issue is a thesis — the call most teams get wrong, stated with production judgment — plus the few signals of the week that actually move the needle.

What you'll get

  • One thesis per issue. A position, not a summary: the call most teams get wrong, with the why.
  • Two or three curated signals from the technical ecosystem, with my read — not a dump of headlines.
  • One piece from my archive that backs the point, if you want to go deeper.

What you won't get

  • News aggregators with no judgment.
  • "10 tips", motivational threads, or hype.
  • Filler to feed a sending calendar.

How often

When I have something worth sending, not on a schedule. I'd rather send you fewer emails and have each one be worth your three minutes. If there's no signal one week, there's no email.

If this sounds right, stick around. And if it helps, forward it to someone it'd serve.
