I saw this pdf before all the angry comments, and was very excited to see a list of fun topics to explore and learn. I love skill trees in Skyrim etc, and to me this looked like a real life version! Time to level up!

Yeah, not sure what all the fervour is about. I've found the biggest hurdle to advancing is knowing what to study next; this helps solve that.

I definitely agree that the most difficult part of learning something new especially something as esoteric as FP is knowing where to start and then where to go from there. I also benefited from and highly recommend functional-programming-jargon(https://github.com/hemanth/functional-programming-jargon).

The SJW crowd started their predictable shrieking as soon as this was published.
