EDIT March 2021: As I become more confident and competent in my programming ability and ability to figure shit out on my own, I no longer need to follow a MOOC in order to learn. There's nothing wrong with MOOCs, of course, but the set of courses that have been packaged nicely into a MOOC is much smaller than the set of courses that have online materials.
