Just anecdotal evidence: The two e-mails y'all have sent since I signed up have caused a pavlovian response, I literally left my office and sat down on a couch to read your last e-mail the second I saw it in my inbox.
- gknoy 11y agoI do that whenever I see anything from Patrick posted on HN, and getting it delivered in my email box has a similar effect. I would say that I have an irrational enjoyment of reading things that he writes, but I actually think it's pretty rational -- I've never read anything by him that didn't exceed my expectations of information, humor, and valuable content.
- captaindiego 11y agoTo add to the anecdotal evidence I had exactly the same response. Most of the emails are light and fluffy. It's refreshing to receive something with some real meat to it. I've gone from initially being on the fence, to being very excited after the first email, and more so after the second.
