       | Maybe we should just have a HN top open source technical
       | textbooks list along with all prior discussions listed under it.

         | Recurring threads on HN are not limited to textbooks /
         | resources. They're also working as intended (I think?) -- if
         | they're getting upvotes, it's because they are bringing value
         | to people and new to a sufficient number of readers.

           | HN is a good source for these. You can, of course, look up
           | via search, but it'd be nice to have a permanent shortcut :D

         | This would be awesome. Do a weekly/biweekly/monthly poll on
         | different topics and adding the top voted entries to the list?
         | Doesn't just have to be programming or science either, there've
         | been some great threads with recommendations for music courses
         | and lectures.

         | It's like going back to pre-google, but in a fun way.
