How does it provide any more value than https://news.ycombinator.com/best https://news.ycombinator.com/best

  I guess it just depends on the person, but I don't equate "votes" to always mean the best. For HNL I look for for a mix of these along along with the ones that don't make the front-page for long. The biggest value is that I send all of those to people's inbox -- they seem to like that part the most.

    Love the newsletter. Saves me from midweek FOMO and helps me be more productive. I know that all the best stuff is waiting for chill time on Sunday...

      I'd probably have subscribed earlier if I'd read this. Thanks.

  As a subscriber on the list, "more value" (to me) is provided in a couple of ways: - I seem to like the weekly selection; the editorial choices on which articles are likely to be of interest of the group. - Kale includes older posts, sometimes from months back, sometimes more obscure or funny, that are still interesting to read now. - I get the top stories in a weekly email that I can process weekly. If I feel I've kept myself reasonably up to date with current news, that means a quick scan. But after a couple of weeks of vacation, processing just three issues of Hacker Newsletter is sufficient to catch up. By the way, http://www.daemonology.net/hn-daily/ http://www.daemonology.net/hn-daily/ is also convenient to catch up after a long time.
