Well, in that case, I agree. I've only unlocked my Note 2 for a specific reason, and never had to do it again in any device since. Battery life on Notes are nothing to rave about, but neither a huge issue. But yeah, it does have many issue with bloatware, locking, non-native UI, etc. Even if they don't personally bother me, I will acknowledge that.

What makes Samsung phones consumer hostile? Their ridiculous prices? Because I wouldn't call that hostile, rather simply overpriced. And I would agree that they are.

However, I still have every galaxy note I have ever owned, working, and in great condition (Note 2, 5, and now 8). My dad is actually using the 5. All of them got upgraded at least once to a newer Android OS and they are still solid devices.

Granted, other than Note, I've only owned a Startosphere for the hw keyboard, so I can't compare it to others, but even after I realized that the Note 8 was crazy expensive and made me double think what my next phone will be, I worry if the longevity can be matched.

I removed the non-squarespace one and everything seems fine. How do I check if the issue you found is resolved?
Most newsletters, especially ones using MailChimp, should have an RSS link unless they explicitly disabled it. Here is the RSS link for Morning Cup of Coding: https://us18.campaign-archive.com/feed?u=ab0f46cf302c0ed836e...

I don't promote it much because it has some disadvantages from my end, but I see the value in RSS. Hell, I rely on them to make each issue.

Thank you for your kind words <3
Also, yes, I do take likes/dislikes into consideration. It's a very helpful tool that helps me see when I've done something people really didn't like or liked a lot. For example, my editorial on Google's AlphaStar was very well received: https://us18.campaign-archive.com/?u=ab0f46cf302c0ed836e0bf0...
Huh. I never knew this was a thing. Anyway, I just disabled it.
So, the squarespace one I think was automatically added when I connected my account to it. The "humanreadablemag.com" one I guess was there before I connected squarespace and is used for "www".

I guess I should delete the latter? I don't want to do anything stupid and bring the site down :/

Thank you so much for your kind words.

Indeed, because of our limited resources, we are only able to share 3 articles per issue, which has a high probability for all of them to be a "miss". We are making moves to grow, and hopefully that means more articles per issue and thus more value to our readers.

I am also very glad that you find the number of articles found in Hackernews and Reddit is low. That means that my time spent shifting through my list of more than 1,000 (and growing) RSS feeds actually produces good results, which was a bet I made early on when deciding what sources to use for my curation.

I think I messed up the DNS settings.

That is very odd behaviour indeed. I will look into this. I wonder what that could be...

The body links was the old format. I change that a while ago, but the index page hasn't been updated yet.

I hear you. I am working on the backend to make this possible, but it's a little bit more complicated than I originally estimated.
Thank you so much!
There are not that many general programming newsletters, but language specific there are a ton. A list I like to use is the Awesome Newsletter https://github.com/zudochkin/awesome-newsletters
