Ask HN: Which newsletters do you think are indispensable?

5 points by samiq ↗ HN
Hi guys,

I'm compiling "great newsletters, mailing lists and periodical blogs" for a side project I'm working on for the new year.

I was wondering what newsletters / mailing lists are you subscribed to that you think they should not be missed, I'll be sharing what I built shortly around here.

Examples of what I'm looking into are (they don't all have to be about entrepreneurship, they just have to be interesting)

Tim Ferris newsletter Mattermark newsletter a16z newsletter Benedict Evans' weekly Paul Graham's Essays (though he doesn't have a newsletter, he doesn't blog ofter but when he does it feels like a periodical that you might not want to miss) objc.io Scott Hanselman's Newsletter of Wonderful Things Quartz Daily Brief

appreciate the help!

Perhaps you would get better responses if your title wasn't so childish.

childish, yet practical :)

The keys a,e,y and o seem to be intermitently broken on your keyboard. I could advise you to a good DasKeyboard or Elite keyboard.

yeah, they went missing in action when HN limited the title to only 80 chars :)

Ask HN: Which newsletters do you think are indispensable? (58 characters, who can do better? :)

Great list here. I also love:

- Things That Have Caught My Attention by Dan Hon - http://tinyletter.com/danhon (He's the content director for Code for America and writes beautiful, thoughtful and personal commentary. Very smart.)

- Taylor Davidson's Newsletter - http://taylordavidson.com/letters (Writings at the intersection of tech and photography. Similar to Benedict Evans' format.)

- Deb Chachra's Metafoundry - http://tinyletter.com/metafoundry (An engineering professor who writes a combination of personal notes and smart commentary about tech/science.)

- Weekly Gold by David Sherry - http://davidjsherry.com/ (A nice reminder to step away from your computer and take the world in + a cool startup recommendation every week.)

I'll bit and plug my own, cuz it's killer. Musicgeeks: One song + a dancing GIF every weekday. Great music discovery if you're into that sort of thing:)
