I've updated my past newsletter platform cost comparison to incorporate Ghost's recent pricing changes for Ghost Pro. (Note that past Ghost users are grandfathered in.)
my god, just look at that changelog. looks like it's upgrade day for me!
The scale of Trump's pay-for-access scheme outlined by the Times is mindblowing. Crypto contributions resulting in business deals with the Trump family crypto businesses, oil companies buying influence and later reaping benefits from friendly policies, and a $1 million pardon.
The article only mentions Crypto.com's $10 million contribution to Trump's super PAC, but doesn't mention that after Trump took office, the SEC dropped their lawsuit against the company. His Truth Social company is now partnering with them to sell crypto ETFs.
I didn't realize both Charlie Jane Anders and Annalee Newitz had new books coming out, and they both look so good!

since i was writing for a general audience i only tucked in a short paragraph about using RSS as a journalist or researcher, but i genuinely have no idea how anyone functions without it.
sometimes in an interview someone will ask me for my “secret” for staying on top of crypto news, and the secret is literally just RSS
i love reading changelogs
hello beautiful
Interesting to see two major news outlets — The Verge and Wired — both announce major newsletter strategies nearly simultaneously. I suspect both are motivated by the hope that email will be "stickier" than the (declining) direct traffic to news websites.
