I would've said: 1) news.ycombinator.com, 2) hn.algolia.com, and 3) hn.premii.com But putting aside HN and the 'typical' daily stuff like weather, transit, uh, 'private' stuff, etc.: 1. De Correspondent: a web-only subscription-based newspaper that has a pretty unique and very successful approach. Instead of the classical 'lots of news items as things unfold, hot off the press, and lots of barely rewritten AP feeds' model, it publishes fewer, longer, better-researched articles that provide more context. Basically, it tries to avoid the 'whims' of the day. It actively tries to center itself around the correspondents who get to write series on their area of expertise, and has done a very admirable job asking readers what they should be focusing on. And best of all, they're in the process of creating an English version of it. For now you'd have to learn Dutch for most of it. 2. tvcountdown.com: despite my resolve to watch less television, I still follow a bunch of shows and always forget when they air. 3. duolingo.com: currently learning Spanish. I'm shocked by how well the 'few minutes daily' approach works! PS: hey HN overlords. I truly love this wonderful timesink here, but can we have markdown please!?! |
I also know some programmers Slacks in Spain, which might be easy as all the technical words are in English.
What country Spanish are you aiming for though? They are slightly different (more than American English vs British English).
