Content Architecture Redesign
Just realized that /news looking like /blog is confusing.
Had a debate with Claude and we landed on a Three-Tier Strategy:
- Blog (
/blog) - Deep technical guides (SEO focused) - News (
/news) - Daily build log (Twitter-style feed) - Newsletter (
/newsletter) - Weekly email archive
This creates transparency. You can follow the daily struggle in /news, catch the weekly summary in /newsletter, or learn "how-to" in /blog.
Refactoring the code now.

AWS SES Production Access Approved
Just submitted the "Production Access Request" to AWS SES. Now the waiting game begins.
The form asks for:
- Use case description: (I wrote a novel about my newsletter)
- Email sending frequency: (Daily/Weekly)
- Recipient acquisition: (Opt-in on website)
Current status: Pending Estimated wait time: 24-48 hours.
In the meantime, I can only send to verified email addresses (me). But the infrastructure is solid.
