Asked often
Is there a newsletter?
No. There is an RSS feed and a search endpoint, and posts stay at the same URL forever. If you want to know when something new appears, the feed is the honest way to do it.
Do you take sponsored posts?
No, and I never have. Where I have worked with a vendor whose product appears in a post, it is disclosed in the first paragraph.
Can I republish a post?
A quotation with a link is always fine. For a full republication, ask first — the answer is usually yes for non-commercial use.
What do you do when a post turns out to be wrong?
A correction goes at the top with the date and, unless they would rather not be named, the person who caught it. The original text stays; quiet edits are how a site loses its readers.
