Resources
In the new era of information abundance, it is becoming increasingly difficult to find high quality information. This page lists my recommended resources and people to follow for different topics in tech (Table #1) and finance (Table #2). Most are free or relatively cheap. I intentionally left out obvious resources, such as Stack Overflow.
