Yeah you are right, I edited my comment. It is not all of them. But I do think it is at least 50% of them. I apply an auto filter on the full list of links, and then I curate manually. In both the auto and the manual part some links are missed.

(Thank you for reading the newsletter)

Nice list. Are you upvoting them too? (One of them have only 1 point.)

[Small nitpick: You should add a space between the title of each post and the URL.]

No I don't, upvoting doesnt really make sense when the post is older than 1 hour.

In spite it doesn't make too much sense, if you like the post an upvote is nice for the submitter.

Also an additional vote may be useful to highlight it to the mods that cherrypick some post and they have a second chance to be shown in the front page for a small time. More details by dang in https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11662380
