Ask HN: Which online courses and books can provide real value to a programmer?

There is a 3 part course on Coursera by U of Washington Prof Dan Grossman called

Programming Languages A: https://in.coursera.org/learn/programming-languages

Programming Languages B: https://www.coursera.org/learn/programming-languages-part-b

Programming Languages C: https://in.coursera.org/learn/programming-languages-part-c

A great place to start is the ACM CS Curricula. It has a list of exemplar courses and well defined criteria.
