Ask HN: What are some cool and useful hacker sites?
Some sites – like HackerNews – just make life easier/better. Here’s a list of ones I’ve found over the last year.
Do you know of any sites that should be on this list?
Cool/useful sites:
TED – life changing talks
Fiverr – random stuff just $5
Quora - Q&A made cool and fun
StackOverflow – Q&A for coding
Flippa – buy and sell websites If you enjoy TED talks, you might also like doLectures (http://www.dolectures.com). They aren't "life changing" per se, but some of the talks offer new and interesting perspective. For example: http://www.dolectures.com/lectures/why-you-should-have-a-par... On the same theme of general interest talks by specialists, I'm quite a fan of the Long Now Foundation podcasts. http://Sparkfun.com for electronics - best tuts I've ever seen http://nettuts.com The best dev tutorials This place is definitely nice. One thing I've found with even very basic tutorials on something, is that if you read through it carefully, write each character of the code by yourself -- something will click, and it'll stick with you. Skimming never works. http://lifehacker.com "Tips, tricks, and downloads for getting things done." I really dislike the redesign :( https://www.owasp.org to learn about web application security
