Ask HN: What is the best way for a programmer to learn economics?
Any hands on materials to learn economics?
- troydavis 9y agoMost online learning sites - Coursera, Udemy, and the like - have classes. If your interest is practical or your preference is for something a bit less academic, start reading each of Matt Levine’s daily columns (https://www.bloomberg.com/view/contributors/ARbTQlRLRjE/matthew-s-levine https://www.bloomberg.com/view/contributors/ARbTQlRLRjE/matt...) and listening to weekly EconTalk podcast episodes (http://www.econtalk.org/archives/favorites/ http://www.econtalk.org/archives/favorites/), then Google the terms you aren’t familiar with. (Pedantic: Levine is arguably more finance than economics, but he covers both, makes them interesting, and chooses topics carefully.)
