Ask HN: To which tech email newsletters do you subscribe?

• therojam 9y ago
  My personally best newsletter is a feed2mail subscribes rssfeed. An my local ccc mailing list. After that comes Twitter.

  Shameless plug - I run https://discoverdev.io https://discoverdev.io A curated daily digest of the most insightful software engineering articles I find across the web. I've curated and tagged over 1000+ articles to date. (Initially tried an ML approach to crawl and classify articles, it didn't work out. So there is a fair bit of human intervention to keep up the quality of the links) As of now there is a RSS feed, starting this month there will also be a newsletter (it's about time, over 1000 people signed up). Just give it a look and tell me if you like it :)

  Benedict Evans’ newsletter on mobile and related tech (everything in tech is related) is quite good as a weekly round up of important stories, plus his own long form writing which is top notch. [1] Ben Thompson’s Stratechery is good too. More hit and miss because it’s mostly his original hot takes, but frequently insightful.

  I haven't used this myself, but I have heard only great things about https://char.gd/recharged https://char.gd/recharged by @ow (twitter) - I'm sure you could reach out to him if you needed to ask about anything

  If your into side projects and building things, I would recommend the Indiehackers newsletter https://www.indiehackers.com/businesses https://www.indiehackers.com/businesses

  One of my favourites is C# Digest. https://csharpdigest.net/ https://csharpdigest.net/ Five links every week, all in some way useful or informative for a .NET developer.

  Another shameless plug: I write a series of emails about mistakes I've made during my career as a software engineer, and what readers can learn from them. So rather than being a "here's a series of news links", it's very personal, for better or for worse. So far have published 70 of them weekly over the past year and a half; new subscribers start at the beginning so get them all. https://codewithoutrules.com/softwareclown/ https://codewithoutrules.com/softwareclown/

    I found this one after watching your talk at PyCon last year. Thank you for writing this!

  I actually started a newsletter [0] on growing as a T-shaped developer after I didn't find anything similar online that scratched my itch. I try to do one or two small explorations a week in different areas of tech that I wouldn't normally come across in my day job as a front-end engineer, and I decided to send them out to others too! I like the metaphor of a T-shaped developer, which is why I mention it on the site. I decided on "Breadth First Growth" as a cute way to convey the focus on growing sideways (and reference the search of course). It's mostly geared towards junior developers and those without a solid CS foundation, so although I might not recommend it for the average HN reader, I've heard good things about it from other junior devs and bootcamp grads. It's been great to make and share! [0] https://breadthfirstgrowth.com https://breadthfirstgrowth.com

  I really like Alertbox by the Nielsen Norman Group. Lots of great information on UX. https://www.nngroup.com/articles/subscribe/ https://www.nngroup.com/articles/subscribe/

  Somewhat orthogonal, but if you prefer RSS, I highly recommend using this site: https://www.kill-the-newsletter.com/ https://www.kill-the-newsletter.com/

  Shameless plug - I run https://betterdev.link https://betterdev.link I like a bunch of language from Go/Elixir/Clojure/Ruby/Elm and also work as a DevOps engineer so my links tend to be spread out between many language/stack with focus on infrastructure(Kubernetes, Docker, Security etc) It kinds of my personal reading list that I put up and hope it deliver value to people. The code is also open source: https://github.com/yeo/betterdev.link https://github.com/yeo/betterdev.link It also have an Elixir application(which I has not deploy yet) that allow peple to submit links and bookmark etc(frontend is in MithrilJS). Let me know if you like it.
