Ye' old general discussion board. Basically, for everything that isn't covered elsewhere. Come here to shoot the breeze, shoot your mouth off, or whatever suits your fancy. This forum is not for asking programming related questions.
I learned the limited amount I know from a combination of the internet and boredom. I haven't taken one class related to anything I know about computers. I am kind of curious just how many self-taught people we have in here.
imho it's useful if you have someone to introduce you into a certain environment, explaining the used paradigms etc.. one you've had that, you should be able to learn everything from the web, books, ...
I took many classes, but many of those languages are not used anymore so I self teach myself all the new stuff that comes out. I think once you understand at least two, learning the next one is pretty easy.
Entirely self taught from the Internet. Started with tutorials, then studying code, now code and technical documents. Still learning, of course. PHP is still largely a weird world to me.
Maybe 95% self taught. In the last 2 years it's moved primarily to learning from articles, books and googling... I'm currently dancing with TDD where McGruff has been been a big help. You also do a lot better when there's backup - a really great function of devnetwork
