I work in Commercial and have a decent amount of downtime this time of the year. I've always been a fan of constant learning but I've hit a wall of sorts as of late.
Do you have any recommendations for free learning courses? Hopefully we can compile a list of resources that'll be helpful to others.
Thanks

you should learn to rap and grow mushrooms
Psh, you think I don't already know how to rap?!
Psychedelics were never my thing though. I'm good without the whole melting walls and seeing sounds stuff.
you are not a CURIOUS BOYYO
No but for real on the mushrooms. Oyster Mushrooms and the like - VERY Valuable.

MIT open courseware is always interesting - much of it is way, way beyond my capacity but still interesting. Worth looking through though depending on how much learning you want to dive into.
Nice, thanks for posting this. I completely forgot about their open courseware stuff. I'll definitely dig into it
ditto for coursera and khan academy.
if I had a lot of down time, I'd do 5 things:
I'm reading Dynamic Hedging by Nassim Taleb, having a little bit of trouble figuring out the math, but it is great fun.
I think I would have trouble maintaining interest in it over a period of time. More like something I would go hard into for a week and never think about again
Since you said you've always been a fan of constant learning, I'll start by asking, what are some of the things/sports/games/subject matters you feel like you've already tackled?
Try to learn face reading, it is a really interesting topic that can help you in your life
A lot of random stuff on Udemy, and you can get a serious discount every so often.
Good site.
