Favorite sites #1.

Some of the sites / channels I enjoy. For a start - mostly video channels.

  1. ThePrimeagen / ThePrimeTime (EN)

Programming and entertaining content rarely go hand in hand - but this one proves it’s possible. It’s not for the ones that are easilly offended as Primeagen does not pull any punches, but at the same time it’s just fun and full of sound engineering advices (!?). On top of that pretty good starting point for finding other interesting sites / articles.

  1. Kurzgesagt (EN)

If your’re in a mood for some scientific quickies presented in digestable animated way that’s among the best.

  1. Bunkier Nauki (PL)

Nice to see a polish scientific vidcast providing such good value. It’s a “talking heads” style, perfect for watching / listening on the go.

  1. Adam Savage’s Tested

Probably one of the most successful maker (especially in the realm of prop making) channels on YT.

  1. Stuff Made Here

Totally love this one - while one might argue that most of the projects you’ll find there are on the “non-practical” side, but you can’t deny they’re fun and with suprising amount of complexity.

  1. DIY Perks

A proof how amazing diy projects can be.

  1. This Old Tony

Machining / metalworking channel with a snarky sense of humor.

  1. ArjanCodes

When I try to recollect when I’ve started thinking about more complex things related to programming in Python that might be around the time I encoutered this channel. Quite often I felt way over my head, but at the very least I knew what I should learn.

  1. Anything “Raymond Hettinger” ;)

The last one is not a specific channel. But that’s definitely a term to search for. Raymond Hettinger’s lectures are a treasure for anyone looking to learn good Python - as there always must be a better way ;) .
