I agree with the main idea. Two nitpicks:
1) the random invitation to join your mailing list mid-way through the article is jarring
2) it's funny to get to the end of the article and suggest reading Seneca when, as far as I can tell, "oh you should read the stoics" pops up on HN all the time
- glibertio 6y agoThanks for the feedback! Regarding your points: 1) I understand. I am trying to have some sort of ways to notify people when I post new stuff and somehow putting the newsletter signup in the post itself works best (as opposed to putting it at the end or somewhere else). It's hard to avoid breaking the flow of reading while making sure people see it. 2) I really could not resist praising how good the stoic writing are compared to all the self help fluff we see today. I think it is worth going against my thesis for that one.
