There are many educational videos on youtube. Universities are uploading entire Lecture series and you can get an MIT / Stanford / Harvard education. There was never a time in history when finding the knowledge you want to learn was so easy. For sb as curious as me this is awesome. I'm in heaven. For example I learned a lot from Richard Bucklands programming series. It's one of the best when before I had a hard time wrapping my head around these things. Or just look at "The New Boston"..
