New essays roughly once a fortnight. Subscribe in the footer for the Sunday letter.

Slow, sourced, opinionated — never SEO sludge.

Evidence over hype

Every claim ranks itself: strong, promising, anecdotal. We label it. We don't hide it.

Mechanism over marketing

If we can't explain why something works, we don't recommend it. Even when it's trending.

Continuity over volume

One essay a fortnight, written until it's right. No publishing calendar pressure.

Sovereignty over lock-in

Templates and prompts are yours to copy, fork, modify. We benefit when you build, not when you stay.

Calm over urgency

No countdown timers, no 'last chance' subject lines. The Sunday letter arrives Sunday.

Honest over optimistic

When something we recommended doesn't hold up, we publish the retraction at the top of the original.
