Programming Tutorials?

About 20 years ago, I was way into tech and computers in general.  I went to school for Network Administration and Programming.  About 6 months before graduating, the tech bubble popped, and we watched the job market go from "no experience necessary" to " 3-5 years experience required".  I had one job interview lined up with a school, part time and the pay and benefits at McDonald's were superior.  Long and short of it is I had to make a decision. Keep looking in the tech field with no practical experience, or look for work in other fields.  I looked elsewhere.  20 years later and here we are, I find myself wanting to get back in to the swing of things tech, but MY GOD has so much changed.  I'm slowly getting up to speed.  

 

Looking for some programming and linux tutorials to help knock the rust off..

Any help is appreciated

Look at a site called goalkicker. They provide free reference books for a lot of things. And freecodecamp is awesome too.

wh3school/tutorials point are good kickstart, I also liked derek banas

 

there are also also scholarly books that can be found on libge... but they tend to be uselessly bricks

 

my suggestion is to start learning rather than wasting time into thinking what tool to use, if you either decide to use a c++ book stroustrup or some random tutor on the net doesn't really matter
