On a personal note, I wanted to thank the HN community. I’ve been reading HN since college (for over 15 years now!) and it’s been formative in my development as a software engineer and leader.

I don’t pipe up very often, but I visit HN almost every day. Many of the books I read, blogs I frequent, and podcasts I listen to, I found via HN. I think it’s fair to say, if it weren’t for HN, that Bitrig wouldn’t be Bitrig and SwiftUI wouldn’t be SwiftUI.

That’s great and I’m glad you feel good here. I think it’s time for you to share what you found over the years on HN with us. Your curated list, if you will.

		This isn't exhaustive, but quickly top of my head: - How to Win Friends and Influence People — This was really eye opening to me and helped me more productively engage in a large organization like Apple. - Sam Harris's podcast — I'm always interested to hear his takes on the controversial topics of the day as well as more philosophical and philanthropic ones. - The Knowledge Project podcast — I don't listen to this as much anymore but a few years ago I was a regular listener. - Simon Willison’s blog — The highest signal to noise way I've found to stay up to date with developments in AI.

Hello fellow lurker. I for one am glad you are here ;-)

And I echo the thanks. HN has made me a better technical professional in so many ways.
