this page is designed as a hub for any interesting, valuable, memorable, and/or useful links that i find in my explorations.
there have been times where it has felt really difficult to access the information i was seeking, and i made many mistakes along the way that needlessly slowed me down!
many resources are accessible through a simple google search, but some are a bit more "stumbled upon"; in collecting these links, i hope they can be of benefit, and i hope i can save you some time.
