Hey tiatira,
We have over 750 posts on Linux Handbook. And it has some really good, detailed articles buried in this pile that you may never come across. That's an issue this newsletter addresses. You'll discover hidden gems that you probably would have never found on your own.
Take this detailed sed guide for example. It's over 5,000 words long and explains the sed command with execution model.
And come to think of, it's one of the earliest articles on Linux Handbook nearly six years ago. Yeah! It's been that long 😄
