🔗 Stuff That's Worth Your Time

The big link dump is here (2min read)

Hey there guys and gals, I wrote out a massive travel-related blog that I was going to send you but realized about 80% in that it was a lot of complaining and not a lot of value.

And hey, the premise is good, but the execution is a bit 💩 for now. So I’ll send that one when it’s ready. Instead, I thought, crap, I haven’t done a big link dump in a long time.

I’ve given you some good little golden nuggets, but where’s that minted 1KG block? Where’s the good stuff?

I know you probably signed up for this newsletter because you read one of my articles on productivity, business, or tech - so what I’m going to do is link you all the stuff I’ve been into lately.

Here goes nothing.

👩‍💻 Tech

• 🌌 The absolutely free 10 Hour React JS course building real apps by FreeCodeCamp on YouTube.

• 🍸 The free ~5 Hour Gatsby JS Bootcamp by Andrew Mead on YouTube - there is crazy value here, launch a blog from scratch, for free.

• 👩‍🏫 And because I linked 2 JS resources, here’s a breakdown of the pros and cons of JS for development.

• 🚫 A massive list of No-code products/case studies out there - yep, in 2020, you can run whole businesses without writing a single line. 😎

• 🧵 A great thread on how Pieter Levels built a super relevant “mini-startup” while road tripping.

💰 Business

• 💸 The biggest IPO in history is happening very soon - interesting things happening in Asia right now.

• 💑 This programmer sold his dating site for $575 Million and kept all the equity - an old story but some good lessons.

• 📔 I’ve been reading The Billion Dollar Whale lately, and it’s everything I hoped it would be - a real worldwide scheme broken down.

• ☕ An in-depth analysis of how Morning Brew grew to 1.5 Million users with their referral program.

🧘‍♂️ Productivity

• ☯️ This meditation style mentioned by Naval Ravikant has helped me immensely, and I haven’t been doing it for very long, either.

• 📧 Unsubscribing from emails that I “kinda” want to keep sucks; I want to get rid of the clutter but keep the info - Unroll.me does exactly this - it rolls them up into 1 email.

Let me know if you’re liking these and want more.

I hope you enjoyed this 2-minute email. If you found something useful here, please share it with someone that might find some value too. Spread the love 😎

Cheers,

Sah
