Newsletter

One email when a new series goes live

The Code & Cogito newsletter. New series releases, Deep Dive Pack early-bird pricing, the occasional cross-disciplinary read — sent when there’s something worth saying, otherwise quiet.

The newsletter is a byproduct of how I think.

Each time a series wraps, a script settles, a book closes — some things are too scattered for an article, too private for a notebook. The newsletter catches what falls in between.

What I send: new series releases, early-bird pricing on Deep Dive Packs, the occasional “what I’ve been chewing on” note.

What I don’t send: sales pushes, list rentals, the weekly-post-or-die guilt.

Subscribers get one every 2–3 weeks on average — sparser when months get busy. I write it when I want to and you read it when you want to. That’s the rhythm of this list.

What lands in your inbox

Four kinds of email, on their own rhythm — never weekly clutter. ### Cards #### C1 New series releases Of the 8 series, when the next one goes live, you hear first. Plus a paragraph or two on what the series is wrestling with and why I’m writing it now. Frequency: roughly every 3–4 months #### C2 Deep Dive Pack early-bird pricing Subscriber-only discounts (usually -30%) when a new single Pack lists on Gumroad. Bundle promotions get a heads-up too. Frequency: each time a new article publishes #### C3 Cross-disciplinary reading Books, papers, podcasts, YouTube — things I’ve been reading that connect to the series themes but didn’t make it into an article. Short note + link. Frequency: monthly #### C4 “What I’ve been thinking about” Observations that don’t quite become articles but feel worth sharing — usually about tools, process, my own thinking habits. Frequency: every other month, give or take

FAQ

How often do you send?
Average is one every 2–3 weeks; sparser when life gets busy. I don’t manufacture emails to “stay in front of you” — if there’s nothing worth saying, you hear nothing.
Can I unsubscribe?
One-click link at the bottom of every email. Takes effect immediately. No exit survey, no win-back sequence.
Do EN / ZH / JA subscribers get different content?
Right now, no — there’s a single English-language list (this page). If subscribers grow enough to justify it, I’ll split into three language streams.
Will my email be sold or shared?
No. The list lives in my own WordPress database, used only for this newsletter. MailPoet’s privacy policy lines up with that — I checked before picking it.
Why MailPoet instead of Substack / Medium / Beehiiv?
Tried them. Picked MailPoet because (a) it integrates cleanest with my WordPress, (b) no platform cut, no platform ads sitting next to my words, (c) the list is in a database I own — if the platform shuts down, I can still export.
What does a new subscriber get first?
The MailPoet confirmation email, then nothing automated. Next time I send a real newsletter, you’re on it. If you want a sense of what I’ve published before, browse the latest articles.
Still deciding? Take a look at the 78 Deep Dive Packs and how they’re organized, or skim the latest articles before committing. Subscribed or not, thanks for the time you spent here.
