Reading the best books on a topic is infinitely better than any time spent on this site. There is nothing to learn here anymore, it's just news. For example you'll never hear the words "Concurrent hashmap" or "denormalization strategy" on this site, but you will in an interview.

Ironically, this HN comment is probably the only place where I'd have heard these terms, or that I need to know them for an interview :)

  Enjoy it! Aside from interviews, it has real technical/business value :)

  I did a search on Algolia for "concurrent hashmap" with the search setting on "All" and i got 16 pages of results. I then did the same for "Justin Bieber" and got 94 pages of results, and I also found an Algolia bug that was printing 97 pages as available but the last three were blank. This isn't very good news for anyone looking for "technology news" here but it is actually quite good for people who are looking for "entrepreneurship news".
