Franco Catena

Strong opinions, daily.

One opinion about this industry, every day. Get on the list:

One email a day. Usually an opinion. Often an unpopular one.

I write about building software: what works, what everyone pretends works, and what I got wrong last week.

It's an opinion, not a tutorial. You'll disagree with some of it — that's the point. If you only read things you already agree with, you're not reading, you're being flattered.

Some days I'll be wrong

And I'll say so the next day. I'd rather publish something sharp and correct it than publish something safe and forgettable.

One email, every day. One click to leave, and that link never expires.

Still here?

Then you already know whether you want this.
