Depending on where you live, you can get discount too. For example, I get this:

>Hello! It looks like you're in India, where this zine might be expensive. If you need it, please use code <redacted> at checkout to get 70% off the regular price.




It's pretty cool jvns took the location of purchaser into account. Don't see that happening often.


Huh interesting. Frankly I don't need the discount so I don't mind paying. I'm probably getting closer to $1k of value from them so I'm coming out ahead anyway


Is it that valuable to you because you work in related domains ? Or will they be as valuable to any software dev?


The one I was really interested in was about DNS. Something about DNS just hasn't stuck in my brain despite reading about it dozens of time. Annoyingly DNS is actually pretty simple!

But I don't work directly on any of the topics in the zines, I just like to understand things, or at least understand them enough that I can hang information on what I already know.


Out of respect for the creator, hopefully that code is not valid.

Thanks, I edited out the specific code. But I hope the code applies based on actual location with solutions like Parity Deals.
