I've found a lot of great books via https://hackernewsbooks.com/

I'll also recommend my own monthly newsletter:

https://newsletter.corecursive.com/profile

My last piece was about my struggles to get coding tasks past that last 10% done. And how part of its being distracted by social media and part is that the stakes are low.

off topic, how do you find time to follow and read all those newsletters? I tried to follow couple of them, after a while it felt like everyday I am reading some newsletter. At this moment I completely stopped, because messed up my time management skills after having kids. Need to recover

They all get filtered straight in to a folder. No notification when they arrive.

Then I just go through it every couple weeks either when im waiting around on my phone or when I find myself wasting time on reddit or hn but dont quite have it in my to jump back in to dev work just yet.

Between topics not being interesting to me, overlap in covered topics by each newsletter, and overlap with things I've already seen here; the vast majority of content that hits that folder doesn't ever actually get read. I'm yet to find any source of news, tech newsletter or otherwise, that warrants reading on a daily basis. Closest would be the weather.
