Here's a thread of great beginner resources for those who are learning to code. Two things to keep in mind.

1. These are beginner resources so if you are at an intermediate or advanced level you may not find these useful.
2. Most of these will be free and if not free, low cost.

I know Netflix isn’t a favorite anymore but they absolutely kill it when it comes to documentaries.

If there’s a service that has better let me know. Because I’m a sucker for docs.

Wild County
Challenger: The Final Eight
Dirty Money (pretty much any episode)

Ever since I visited Europe I’ve grown to dislike driving. I wish more American cities were as walkable.

More than 40 percent of 19-year-old Gen Z Americans (born after 2000) do not have a driver’s license.

@rubenharris @LibbyApp One of my favorite apps, hands down.

6 months ago Netflix was worth more than $300 billion — today it’s at $80 billion. At its last valuation event, ByteDance was valued at, wait for it … $360 billion. #TikTok
