Nancy Scola’s Slow Build is an occasional email newsletter from me, Nancy Scola. I’m a long-time reporter and writer whose work studies the intersections of tech and society.

(By the way, why the name “Slow Build?” Think of it as a riff off “move fast and break things,” rooted in a way of imagining and building tech with deliberation and care — and yes, that sometimes takes some time.)

Self-promotion's super fun & I'm really comfortable doing it. Was that convincing? Anyway, if you’re interested in the big questions around tech — and, maybe, have enjoyed my work over the years — I hope you’ll consider signing up for my newsletter. https://t.co/hCFBrlpZlJ

Nancy coaxed me into being very honest in this interview which is a strong indication that you should subscribe to her newsletter.

Popular Information's @JuddLegum & I talk about how he's using his newsletter to keep Facebook accountable — and the natural limits of that approach. https://t.co/JWG2DXXbEP
