Best of luck on accomplishing all of this, you can do it!
What were your thoughts on "Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs" the first pass through? I have it sitting on my bookshelf and I really intend to read it one of these days...
Also, if you do end up subscribing to FrontendMasters, the author of "Mostly Adequate Guide to Functional Programming" has multiple versions of a series on functional programming in JS, and that might supplement the re-reading of the book!
I am a self-taught developer from Argentina currently living in Spain. I am passionate about improving my technical skills and helping others do the same.
Hey, thank you for that suggestion I will definitely look into it. It is a great book, what I liked the most was first getting to know a little about Lisp dialects(in this case the book uses Scheme), once I understood it, it made me see how beautiful Clojure code is.
Second is that since OOP wasn't big when the book was written it just explains functional programming without compromises, not at as an alternative but rather as a proper way of doing computer software. It feels very natural. Give it a try, it is definitely a good book.

Subscribed to frontend masters and already checking his hardcore functional programming course, thank you for the heads up.
