the newsletter got its own address

hi,

short one this week. the newsletter you're reading moved house again, and this time it has its own address

The Newsletter Moved, and Jarvis Waited for the Wrong Word

Hashnode used to send these as a side effect of hosting the blog. then a week of RSS only, then Buttondown, 18 minutes after Hashnode was dropped

now it comes from [email protected]. four DNS records, two of them grey cloud only, one Touch ID prompt a harness can't press

and a watch that checked 27 times for a status called active. Buttondown says valid ;)

the boring lesson: read the real states of an API before you write the condition you wait on

thanks for reading,

Kai
