- Added to my stier list of bookmarks, one of these days i am going to post on HN saying these are the greatest learning resources on the planet that I have accumulated over the years

- stier is no joke. it has to explain something in a way that even a 5 yr old understands with animations and visualizations

- the information quality of stier in my criteria has to be top tier, no mistakes no nothing

- here are some of my stier bookmarks

- https://radarlaboratory.com/ teaches you how radar works

- https://nandgame.com/ is game that encourages you to build a computer from scratch like literally from transistor level

- https://shader-learning.com/ exercises to learn how shaders work

- https://timmastny.com/blog/visualizing-cpu-pipelining/ shows you cpu works under the hood

- i have 1000s of such resources, 1000s gotta share em on HN one day

Wow, jargon acronym soup. I guess this is targeting people that already know the entire stack.

Assuming this is AI slop given how close its layout, design, "break down a single concept" content is to another similar link today: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47967508 and usual LLM tells in the language.

If you can't be bothered to write it, why should anyone care to read it?

Looks less interactive than the actual browser debug tools... How does this help anyone? Looks like slop, why is it on front page?

I can now use ChatGPT or Claude to get curated and customized info on "how to do X" and "how does X work". Do you think people would still reference individual toolkits, guides etc?
