Just any good discovery engine

Discovery engine?

She's weird, but I like her..❤️😊

Wait what?

Truly hate to say it, but recently it's been chatgpt... Have been able to go down some really interesting rabbit holes researching topics using it.

I do too but with my personal ai running on a 3090

Telegram?

A good pdf reader?

Honestly YouTube. I’m a visual learner

YouTube

These days it's YouTube, by far. And I dare to say I learn more, faster and with better nuance than anything else, including books.

Same here but since I have Kindle I love books again

Absolutely agree. YouTube is my learning platform.

Agree

But I want to know what is deep fake what is not, what’s AI made, what is real and original video.

I feel so many videos are made by AI using the original voice and tone of conversation in the case of public figure, living or dead.

Why would people tell you that?

Ma’am

🤷🏻

Bc is MY RIGHT

Not really.

Btw. I agree with you. I also want to know it when things are fake.

But there is nothing compelling them to do so.

That’s why we are here, no?

I’ll compel them to

We need to regulate AI

Fake news, deep fakes, and lies are the worst existential risk for humanity.

I’ll take care of this

I have the experience, none knows more than me the destruction that lies cause in humanity.

That’s the worst of wars.

Fake news, deep fakes, and lies are not gonna exist in our world.

Now all my learning starts from #ChatGPT then deep dives as needed.

Fascinating. Can you explain your process further?

From shortly after I joined in 2006 until 2019–2020, it was Twitter, hands down. Now, it's scattered among a handful of newsletters and, increasingly, nostr.

Nostr

X then nostr

that would be youtube tutorials by indian guys

Getting there everyday. I wouldn’t of dreamed of doing this but with being on Damus I have faith we can get this done

Lately for bitcoin learning I'm starting at lopp.net YouTube is useful for certain things. Books still have a very important place in my learning journey.

The ChatGPT & Bing(gpt-4) apps.

From setting up nodes to real world software development at work, it’s rare that this 1-2 punch doesn’t land.

also, for many topics, the chat interface iteratively gets you to what you want to know instead of what authors believe you want or should learn

Twitter and google!

#Fountain (podcast app that is lightning enabled) nostr:npub1v5ufyh4lkeslgxxcclg8f0hzazhaw7rsrhvfquxzm2fk64c72hps45n0v5 it used to be YouTube but I find most shows I like are cross posting to fountain! 💜

Typically github, Perplexity also helps me out in understanding concepts

Sad to say…. TikTok

slashdot and, later, hacker news were good jumping off points back in the day.

Blinkist

YouTube; documentaries, lectures, interviews, news

I use Twitter for most of my search, but now use AI chat for a quick grasp which maybe not accurate

YouTube where you can find a tutorial for almost anything. Pubmed for more serious stuff.

In case that you have access: uptodate.com is nice

Love UpToDate too!

AntennaPod and NewPipe

Audible

A few years ago I came across r/bitcoin

Fountain Podcasts, Stacker news, Telegram, You Tube, Amethyst, Wikipedia

Damus

Books, Fountain, and YouTube. I do a lot of reading of books, and that is where I get the highest quality and most enduring learning. Most of what I watch on YouTube is also available in podcast form, so I listen on Fountain in the car, or watch on YouTube at home with my wife the things she is also interested in. Nostr (Primal mostly) is a growing source of information, and there are dozens of other sites I go to for specific things, such as go.dev right now.

Stacker.news is good

Podcasts and audio books

Me too.. I use Spotify and YouTube for podcasts and Scribd for audio books.

Stackoverflow & subsidiaries

Specific forums (mainly Linux)

Reddit - links & hints to info

Element/matrix

Books - z-library

Medium

Substack

YouTube

Youtube and Audible.

As much trash as most of it is.. Reddit. There are still great niche communities.

True. Subs that get even medium-sized homogenized into the same low effort content though. You have to pray your favorite subs stay small or its a cycle of eternal septembering. Sounds hipster and pretentious but it's painfully true.

I was a long time pure-redditor but drifted towards twitter. Easier to curate your feed towards new and valuable content.

For programming I like to use people's examples folders in their GitHub repo. I have some language learning sites I use but I'll keep that private.

YouTube

Twitter to send me off to books, pods, or YouTubes

same! and tik tok has been a good starting point lately too

Apple Podcasts app

Depends on subject.. but X, YouTube & Calm …

NOSTR for open protocol & Bitcoin… like osmosis you don’t even have to try. 😉

a combination.

YT for quick grasp of knowledge ie investigative, commentary channels or tutorials

Reddit, Quora, Hacker news,Twitter for specific explanations

Chat GPT is like a process, it's something everyone can use and get to a functional level. But too decent, too boring.

Podcast - I find myself enjoying this of late - mostly huberman or fashion related

Research articles - with research, you will find those in support or against, depends on what you want to read.

Books are a game changer. It enhances thought processes, emotions, and conversations the more you read.

and lastly while this is not app/site - great people to exchange conversations with, the thought expanding and satisfying kind.

LinkedIn. It’s where I can follow state and global orgs, Dan Roth does interesting sit down interviews, and even though their “insights” are kinda busted for Premium - it doesn’t bother me much because I’m more interested in the general knowledge I gain.

Library of Trantor

Chatgpt. Though have to be careful to verify that it’s not bsing me.

Amethyst / Nostr

annas-archive.org for books etc

NewPipe (Android front-end of YouTube)

FreeTube (Desktop front-end of YouTube)

CHAT-GPT

YouTube (at 2x speed; took a few years to reach that input speed).

Youtube most of the time

YouTube

I guess you mean other than #Google and Google #Assistant. I interrogate both of those a lot.

I get a lot of information from #YouTube too. I'm starting to get a lot of information from #Nostr.

Starting to use #Chromecast with Google TV more, Google #TV app. I mostly run #Android and #Linux. Some old #windows 7.

Thinking about watching local TV again. Stopped when they went digital. Got tired of all the drug ads. Knew what was coming.

I'm pathetic lol..😆🤭

Youtube. Nothing else comes even close.

No Agenda Podcast

I learn a lot from YouTube, ChatGPT, and the Chrome developer documentation.

For everyday questions it's Google and YouTube. Words that have left a lasting imprint on my mind are mostly from TED talks.

nostr:npub1tsgw6pncspg4d5u778hk63s3pls70evs4czfsmx0fzap9xwt203qtkhtk4 is always there when I need him

twitter*

*bitcoin twitter in specific - especially learned a lot from gigi, memefactory, memetards, btckindergarten, nakadai and clownworld..

got thought a lot ab media manipulation by experiencing it in real time.. and by ppl pointing it out w screenshots etc.

but also by insane experiments mostly done by the memetards.. e.g. learnt how with a simple name change impersonating an inexistent Israëli financial group and tweeting ab bitcoin can go mainstream the day after in the news.. as if they rly existed 😂😂😂 (aka what happens when you have more perceived status, how bad most journalists are nowadays)

These social softwares really don't have much information.

There are no users, it's boring. Twitter is better, with a lot of information and valuable users. Popularity is interesting, and unpopular social platforms are like a pool of stagnant water.

https://ssglobal.co/wp/

Try this and try to connect it, but it isn't free. If you are lucky, the website's boss shall agree to sell you the 'VPN'(a kind of VPN, but it is NO VPN, both functions are same)

Too many people have been detained for climbing over the wall to register and use Twitter.

The National Security Bureau of the evil CCP uses taxpayers' money to arrest taxpayers.

Don't let Chinese people use Twitter.

Pubmed / sci hub

It's still youtube, Jack. I don't want it to be, but it is.

Twitter, podcast apps.

So few people saying twitter.....it has to be twitter surely

Yup. The noise/signal ratio is getting worse and worse. But still, in terms of the volume of signal it's been undisputed until recently.

Pinterest

Kindle and Discord

Fdrpodcasts.com - the story of your enslavement, a proof of secular ethics and real time relationships, the logic of love.

YouTube

Spotify in unpredictable podcast and musician ways.

Youtube, ChatGPT, and wikipedia to search and learn to a goal.

Duolingo, Khan Academy, Scratch for the kids' homeschool.

Google podcast

I learned a lot of practical skills from YouTube,

and as for other skills and knowledge - it's Google (never Wikipedia, by the way; I am surprised you take it so seriously as promoting its analog for Nost, and I went through comments, didn't see anyone mention it so far)

You should use Fountain for podcasts instead of Spotify. You can earn #bitcoin there only by listening and also support creators directly

Reddit, but since the black out I haven’t visited it again.

Youtube

I didn't learn much from here https://archive.org/, but I hope it will thrive and store tons more information. That's the 'Wikipedia' I would love.

Medium, OneSub (used to be Twitter for news) Google, YouTube

What I learned the most from over the past couple years was the 17 hours or so of Robert Breedlove sitting down with Michael Saylor on the What is Money show. I came away with a deeper understanding of life and Bitcoin.

Spotify podcasts & till last Dec Twitter

YouTube

YT and Brilliant

YouTube (NewPipe) by far, also for podcasts. Twitter for Bitcoin, quick news and networking, but feel increasingly alienated with the X. Looking to exchange for Nostr-based apps wherever possible.

Most profound knowledge source is from the inside though - Vipassana meditation, Jiddu Krishnamurti ;)

It's scary how many people say ChatGPT.

Youtube is currently dominating

wikipedia, youtube, kindle, coursera

just life, still learn day by day

Spotify Podcasts

YouTube/Netflix app - documentaries

YouTube by far.

Wikipedia?

Books Jack, go tell people to learn by reading books.

Threads or Bluesky

Podcasts, but that is not tied to a single app/site.

I guess it's still youtube for an exclusive ecosystem

Airchat, Twitter, YouTube, and sometimes Reddit

Stack overflow. (Please check your DM)

Easy. Audible.

Youtube and twitter since Elon took over. Technically any video hosting site is great, just YouTube was the biggest.

The cool thing is videos are hard to manipulate the context, you get to see the body language, the unfiltered words as they are spoken.

ChatGPT & various AI tools. Then YT, podcasts, different niche-specific databases.

1. Telegram, 2. Rumble, 3. Amethyst

Twitter.

I like using LeoFinance and Ecency

Standard notes. I use it to write posts, articles, and general thoughts. Writing helps me learn a lot about myself. Probably not the answer you were looking for though.

Stacker News

youtube

Utube but Damus is growing on me

Overcast

linkedin learning

Wikipedia

Product hunt I think 🧐 Also hacker news and then from various sources and newsletters

I'm odd, I admit it - podcasts from dozens of sources.

My phone app. Calling the right person with the right question remains unmatched.

In the pursuit of wisdom, there is no end. Every moment is an opportunity to grow, to refine your understanding, and to strengthen your character. Aspire to be a lifelong student of life itself.

YT

Used to be YouTube (not suggested content but things I would look up) at this point its stacker.news I think

YouTube and Twitter except i'm banned from Twitter and YouTube took down all my videos about Vaccines as "medical misinformation"

the best place to learn the forbidden truth of course is my own site:

#Fountain

Nowadays, Chat GPT 🤭

ChatGPT & Google

fireship.io

The one call “living your life” free and no phone needed!

stackoverflow.com

Coursera. Yt

Waking Up

I learned happiness in doing physical art. creativity is real. All app/sites are same to me but art is meditative and clears your mind of digital garbage where you don't know who is telling the truths

only depends on the quality of the content and if you find someone supplying really good content.

For example, there is a lot of stuff which is good to know, for example https://inclinedbedtherapy.com . But there is quite a lot more stuff not widely known.

YouTube. It's nothing to do with the site specifically. It's that video and audio content like podcasts and talks are easy to consume, reduce blind spots and index into so much more.

Twitter ;)

We should be listening to you. Which app/site do you learn the most from?

Google and Wikipedia

When it's about bitcoin related technical news, then Stacker News, otherwise maybe watching interviews on Youtube would be there?

nostr:npub1sg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q0uf63m you're shadow banned on Twitter

Welcome to Linda's freedom of speech but not reach

Substack

Youtube.

GREAT QUESTION!!! ...I have to say, based on frequency, it is the news sites, because current events are literally ongoing. I love Bloomberg for markets, and local and national news for the weather patterns (natural disasters, extreme weather, pandemics are as costly as anything man-made, and usually costlier).

I think what news sites/apps have (for better and for worse) that is lacking in nostr and social messaging platforms is a cohesive narrative. And often our learning is interrupted by someone's comments who is not there to learn, but rather to debate or converse, or socialize/entertain. So, in a perfect app, I wish there was a chat gpt friendlier filter that could pull up news and allow me to ask questions to further shape the news I am getting access to. A friendly filter that feels like social interaction. Hope that makes sense... <33

YouTube

YouTube for business ideas, IG for food hacks, ChatGPT for everything...

YouTube

Depends. Been using Coursera & MS learn lately, but I'll say I learn the most from YouTube

Reading source code on Github

Duolingo

I picked up a great deal from Russia Today actually. I found bitcoin there watching the Max Keister show and also a different perspective on the news. I know that is likely a deeply unpopular opinion today but a few years back it had things nobody else had.

Spotify because of podcasts

For the last months, getairchat.com has been my favourite.

Twitter still is the place to go for the latest updates on any topic.

YouTube mostly, I have it on in the background and most of my reccomendations are video essays on interesting topics.

There are online courses like Coursera and MOOCs like Edx.org. They mostly teach by recording lectures via embedded videos, but also incorporate lab equipment, industrial equipment, online compilers/interpreters, quizes, text, and games to help students learn the same content via different methods.
