Until this community goes through a round on the new communities/promo communities, you are unlikely to get significant response when posting here. However, I would be very excited to hear ideas about how you think this community should be run and what resources it should offer. Please feel free to post to that effect. Similarly, if you are interested in joining the mod team, please reach out.

Thanks for the tip!

Interests? Where to start!

Calculus, linear algebra, probability, and statistics to lay some foundations.

Algorithms, programming language design, electronics.

Philosophy, physics (various branches).

History, especially Canadian, especially as it relates to the indigenous peoples.

Economics and political theories, especially as can be tied to social systems.

Canadian law, especially as it pertains to rights, freedoms, labour, crown lands, and indigenous territories.

Maybe a bit of geology.

I currently have little desire for formal certification or degrees.

That's off the top of my head. I could easily have just been a full time student. In many ways I was, having taught myself enough programming to make a career, among other things.
