We are the authors of Hybrid Hacker — together we write original articles with practical advice about making good software and working with humans.
We also run another newsletter, called Refactoring, where we cover similar topics. We recently joined forces, so, combined, we write weekly to more than 100K engineers and managers!
📬 What to expect?
Every Thursday you will receive an original essay of 2000 words, delivered straight to your inbox.
Essays are backed by tens of hours of research and real-world experience, distilled into easy to understand primers. Each essay contains clear visuals to explain complex concepts, theories, and frameworks.
Here are some articles from the past that you may like:
For free subscribers like you, only ~50% of the article is free, while the rest is exclusive to subscribers of the paid newsletter plan 👇
And if you are ready for more:
🔒 Access all articles + the community
Free subscribers receive a new newsletter edition every week, but only about half of the article is available for free.
Please consider subscribing to the paid newsletter plan if you want to support our work and get:
1) Weekly essays + the full library 🧵
You get the new, original long-form essay every week, plus access to the curated library of all our writings and recommended engineering resources.
2) The Private Community 💬
Together with the Refactoring newsletter, run an incredible engineering community with more than 800 members, including engineers, managers, and founders from all over the world.
We truly believe it’s the best engineering community in the world, and we do plenty of things together, like:
🧠 Masterminds — we hold monthly sessions, facilitated by a professional CTO coach, where you meet other members and work through your challenges.
📗 Book club — every 2 months we read some famous non-fiction book and we review it together in a live event.
🎟️ Live interviews — we host incredible guests for live interviews and roundtables, where you can join in for Q&A. Recent guests include Kent Beck and Farhan Thawar.
➡️ Coming up — we write newsletter articles together. People join in with their own experiences and insights, and authors are quoted in the newsletter.
Communities like this usually cost thousands of dollars a year. If in a year you only join one mastermind session, chances are the subscription has already repaid itself!
The subscription also comes with a 30-days money-back guarantee. If you are unhappy with Hybrid Hacker you can cancel and get 100% refunded — no strings attached!
