Quick Poll: Do You Give Technical Resource Recommendations?

Generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) is all the rage these days with promises of delivering insightful feedback to just about any query or prompt imaginable. In many cases and implementations, the responses are quick and good. In others, they range from poor responses to ones that are completely made up. Getting useful and accurate information from larger models using more general training material makes this challenging. 

Turning to your peers for recommendations was once the primary way to learn about new technologies who might recommend books and magazines. At places I worked, we would have single subscriptions to a lot of technical magazines and journals, which were distributed among the staff (see below). These days, if someone asks, I tend to recommend specific websites I frequent that are supported by real authors rather than AI chatbots. 

I was curious what your experience has been as either a purveyor of useful technical repositories or on the receiving end as a novice. What I'm looking for is the most important of the bunch listed in the poll. I would expect everyone to have encountered or provided most of these at some point. 

Here's the quick poll. You can scroll down below it to leave a comment if you like. I would be interested in knowing whether anyone else does, or used to, distribute hard copies and what you might do with virtual versions like PDF incarnations of publications and books.
