#2There is clearly a lack of boards/forums/websites dedicated to product managers. But what I miss the more is a website, when we can get valuable insights about best practices.
On HN you can get super useful information about any stack/language/framework by reading the comments, but when you are a PM you have nowhere to get that kind of information

My partner is struggling with this very thing at her work, I'm curious: what are go-to resources for PMs in terms of professional development?

Too true brother. Lots of fluffy thinkpieces that are really marketing or recruiting but very little substantive discussion about how to indentify and prioritize what’s important.

#5General question I've been wondering tangentially related:
Engineers:
is working [edit: replacing 'under' with 'with' due to replies! good clarification, didn't mean under] with a non-technical product manager a dealbreaker for you? (Do you look to filter out places you'd work at while job searching?)
Conversely, have you ever worked under a non-technical product manager you loved? Would you mind sharing details about your situation?

I know of a sub (https://www.reddit.com/r/ProductManagement/), but it doesn't seem to be kept up to date very well.

Working with more senior PMs is the only working solution I have found.
Product Management is a very complex role...there is no straight forward learning path today other than doing the job ,building shit and strong mentor ship!

Are you looking for domain or technology specific project management (PM) information, or referencing best practices for PMs in general? E.g., is https://pm.stackexchange.com/ what you are looking for or more developer and technology-centric planning techniques?

Might not be what you’re looking for but I’ve found the SVPG blog a good resource for reading: https://svpg.com/
Though I think you’re possibly looking for discussions rather than lectures?
