Hi,

I'm on the beginning of my path of changing role - from front-end dev to data/bi analyst. I'm curious if someone here did something similar, and what is your experience, advices and resources. I'm more than open to chat about it!

Hi HN,

I’m looking for recommendations on the best resources to get started in investing. What books, blogs, or services would you suggest for a beginner? What were your experiences when startin, and what challenges did you face in first year of this adventure?

What blogs do you read and recommend? Not only technical blogs - blogs in general :)

As Reddit protests are getting big attention, maybe it's great moment to share some alternative forums in which we are engaged. Apart from HN I can recommend acclaimed music for music lovers.

I'm ok with personal finances stuff but I'm new into investments. I know basic terminology, but I'm looking for resources to learn more before doing something stupid. Do you have some good books, blogs, yt channels, podcasts to recommend?

Using different techniques I am training to change the way I move around the internet (I guess digital well-being is the best-suited word for that). My last concerns are about news - how it comes to me from social media. I switched to RSS (feedly), but I'm thinking even about using printed newspapers. Do you have your ways or tools of getting and reading the news?

I just landed a job where the only OS to choose from is Windows. As an experienced Linux and macOS user, it sounds challenging, but I see it as an opportunity. Is there anybody with similar experience (web apps development on Windows)? Can you share some bits of advice, tools, and setup?

What tools do you use? What practices, patterns and mental models do you apply to this problem? Do you recommend some blogs and podcasts on it? Do you have some magic scripts, databases or whole programs for it? Can't wait to see the anwsers!
