Ask HN: What are programmers favorite sites?
I am looking for sites where you go for solutions.

- ps101 7y ago1. Search Google. 2. Go to the Stack Overflow links. 3. If there are none, you go to the Github links. 4. If that doesn't help, you take a coffee break and work on something else when you come back.
- siriniok 7y agohttps://dev.to https://dev.to has a very interesting culture. It's far less toxic than HN or Reddit for discussions, and more suitable for blogging on tech topics than medium.
- ps101 7y agoThe interface really puts me off though.
- siriniok 7y agoYes, it feels imperfect, but I get used to it.
- skaffolder 7y agoI found hard how to insert posts, ok, it is a social network for developers but the markup language could be helped by WYSIWYG editor
- logari 7y agoAgreed on the dev.to interface. It seems as if it was designed by a child who was late for school.
- logari 7y agoIs HN really toxic? I haven't noticed.
- gitgud 7y agoTry: http://wiki.c2.com/ http://wiki.c2.com/ It's an ancient site about software development and design patterns. Frameworks come and go but engineering methodologies never die
- karmakaze 7y agoThe C2 Wiki is a great place. Incidentally named for Cunningham & Cunningham and also the first ever wiki[0]. It does feel more like a reference library though and not really a place for daily or newly developing information. I always enjoy any time I find myself there.

- d--b 7y agoUnfortunately, Stackoverflow is still the quickest way to get good answers. Expect to be shamed, downvoted, asked "why you would do that in the first place", even if your question is well formed and relevant. Your question may be closed, or marked as duplicate, or put "on hold". Still, almost always, someone nice eventually helps. Their "policy" to help with civility didn't work at all. Oh, and complaining about this on meta stack overflow will also get you shamed, downvoted, told that you can't take criticism.
- hazz99 7y agoI've honestly had a great experience on stackoverflow throughout my life. Maybe it's because I put time and effort into my questions, but everyone has been nice and informative (at worst they link to a similar question)
- potta_coffee 7y agoYou're low-key suggesting he hasn't put time and effort in to his questions. I've anecdotally also seen extremely toxic behavior on SO.
- hazz99 7y agoAh - my bad. Not trying to suggest anything, just sharing my experience.

- meditations 7y agohttps://lobste.rs https://lobste.rs If you are looking for a great community and cool website. But it’s invite-only also there’s something called user tree which makes you responsible for invited users actions.
