sorry for the rapid succession of thread creation here. i forgot to ask this here earlier. :/
Long story short, my best friend wants to learn how to program. He doesn't know very much about it at all, and would like to avoid college or university entirely, if possible. Also, his final goal may either be to learn web-based back-end programming, or C++ with a future in game development.
What advice would you give him? Any links or any places he should start looking?

So, why doesn't he want to go to school?
I know that ain't the point of the thread but I believe this entire thread was based on one of those lame, boredom-inspired conversations.
"yo dude, I wanna be a hardcore hacker like neo"
"lol, that'd be cool"
"yeah, but I dun wanna go to school cause that's hard and boring fuck that"
"yeah, fuck school. let's go ask some internet forum goers how to learn programming!"

INTERNET COMES TO THE RESCUE!
Jam it back in, in the dark.
