finally listening to the first episode of @grimalkina's "Change, Technically" and i love how she's talking about how incredibly common it is for programmers to be self taught in some way
"it's really radicalized me to have thousands of people tell me that they're the only person who's [self taught]…” https://www.changetechnically.fyi/
(I've had to teach myself _SO_ many things about computers even though I have a pretty traditional CS degree!)

also love how this podcast is talking about how important it is to be able to play/explore/break things in order to learn and how that can be harder for folks who literally can't afford to break their computer https://www.changetechnically.fyi/
she talks about modelling breaking stuff on her computer and showing what that looks like and how it's often not a big deal
