I think the reason we don't have Email 2.0 or the Facebook Killer is that we still don't _really_ understand the problem. I want to help lay the groundwork for understanding that problem.

I try to explain important concepts for software development/data science or share things I believe are important for our careers.
I don't post that often, but put a lot of work into every article.
Great thread! I sometimes wish there was a variant of Hacker News that only had blog posts written by individuals. Mine is https://tkainrad.dev I think you should read my blog because I invest a lot of effort into my posts. Not sure why I do that, as there is no reward except growing Google Analytics numbers. My three most successful articles have been - Managing my personal knowledge base: https://tkainrad.dev/posts…
Hopefully I’m not late to the party!
I write about ML, optimization & CS, and... well, whatever I want or find interesting. I have a public backlog of projects and blog posts too.
I started it because I kinda like writing, but also because when I do write (technical topics) I enjoy giving very clear, fully understandable explanations.
Not a fan of the “here’s concept A, it’s very straightforward... we’re now at concept Z which as you can see makes use of A” style of writing. I understand it’s need and use, you can't always explain everything, especially if the topic is already very niche and highly complex, or maybe you don’t have the space.
I find that it lets me learn more or jogs my memory on other subjects when I have to fully explain and try to teach things.
Also blogging is fun!
I don't know what it's about myself. Mostly random thoughts and stuff I've created out of boredom. Also recipes I've cooked.
I wanted to write to express myself better and create a home for me on the interwebs. Also I wanted to improve my technical skills and what better way to write my experiences and be accountable for.
And I think you shouldn't read it because it's personal from my daily life and in portuguese, but the domain is really cool, so I thought I'd share it anyway.
I mostly discuss interesting mathematics that has applications to engineering.
It shares proven email templates to get clients, ask for referrals, etc.
Yes there are a lot of templates out there, but 95% of them sound template-y and could probably pass a reverse Turing test.
I find the key to what makes an email work is both in the ask and how you say it (sounding human sounds like it should be second-nature, until we find ourselves typing into that box with a goal to convince someone or sell something).
