Cool spotlights! I wish I could understand French - “Le Courrier du hacker” reminds me that there's an entire world of badass French engineers that I can't really understand.

The types of people behind Algolia and Front.

Great newsletter!

Thanks Phil! There’s indeed a lot of badass French Engineers out there!

Wow, I didn’t know Algolia was a French company. When you mentioned Algolia in your comment, I was wondering why you said so. Gave it a quick google and got on their Bloomberg profile. Interesting. They’re one of my favourite startups in the world.

Thanks for your kind words!

Note: I’m the editor of this newsletter. Would really like to help fellow makers who might be lurking on Hacker News. If there’s any questions, anyone you’d like me to interview or help, please let me know

Nice. What other markets/business models do you plan to cover?

Thanks for your kind words Dru! This coming issue, which I’ll release on Friday 2pm covers how another maker who built landingfolio.com used some life hacks to increase the amount of money he makes from complementary products.

Also, upcoming ones in the pipeline include historysearch.com, treendly.com. They’re all successful makers with decent profits.
