Despite absolutely loving chess as a child, I never studied it professionally, and I did not even play a single game after primary school. A couple of years ago I stumbled upon a chess video recommendation here on Hacker News. It was the 27th entry of ChessNetwork's Beginner to Chess Master series and it rekindled my love for the game. I have been playing chess casually ever since. I cannot recommend ChessNetwork's videos enough: I found them to be insightful, well-made, and very respectful of both the game and the audience.
