Okay, I dont know how to feel about this but.
This seems to be a literally rehashing of an article from 2011.
It even begins with the same damn text intro.
Attaching links for reference.
this article:
```
Rounded corners — they’re everywhere. From software user interfaces to hardware product design, there is something intrinsically satisfying about the look and feel of a rounded corner. In fact, designers have been using them so much that they became an industry standard rather than a design trend. But why are rounded corners so popular?
```
The article from 2011 ``` Designers use rounded corners so much today that they’re more of an industry standard than a design trend. Not only are they found on software user interfaces, but hardware product designs as well. So what is it about rounded corners that make them so popular? Indeed they look appealing, but there’s more to it than that. ```
What do you think about this, HN?

Hi, the newsletter looks great.
I have a similar thing, just that I use a pip package - markdown to create the html
There is also [Dominate](https://pypi.org/project/dominate/) incase you want to edit the finer details.
I quite enjoyed using it since it deals with the tags by using a context manager which makes code look clean especially when you need to generate lists with li tags (which is what most of the newsletter is)
I actually have a different question for you: Once, you're all set and done with the tech and it works flawlessly, How exactly do you go about marketing and making your newsletter known? Currently I have my friends and family on it but that's about it. I have posted it on twitter once but that got me only about 3 new subscribers.
This is where I am stuck at the moment. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

It is really a choice between wanting freedom while accepting the troubles that come with it or sitting under the shade of employment with the occasional bug bites.
Most of all, I am glad that there is this awakening that one questions their situation and wants to change things up. That to me is growth. Thanks for sharing this.
