Once a week
One email, one fixed day. Never a daily drip, never twice because something launched. Your inbox is not a feed.
the one thing I send on purpose
AI, Actually Useful
One email a week about AI — what I'm using, what I've worked out, and what's actually worth your time. Written by someone building with this stuff every day, not summarising press releases.

Three promises, that's it
From actual use
If I haven't run it, built with it, or broken it, it doesn't go in. That's the whole editorial policy.
Plainly written
No hype, no thread-bait, no "this changes everything". Short enough to read on the walk to work.
the honest bit
Why it won't go quiet in a month
I read about AI every day anyway — there's a bot on my Telegram channel doing half of it for me — and I'm already testing tools because the work demands it. The newsletter is a byproduct of that, which is the only kind that survives.
Weekly, one fixed day. Not daily: daily forces filler, and filler is how these things die. Thin week, short email.
