Yes, I agree. This is partly why I want to write a series of books/essays. There's a lot of people that got into programming for a specific job and may want to learn more, but just don't know what the field has in store. I want to give a chance to everybody, regardless of background, to see everything that is programming.

I’m not sure how a book will help them to look around. There’s a ton of information on fundamental stuff that matters, it’s just only a small fraction is interested in it.

I agree there is a ton of information around, but I also think a lot of it is a bit disorganized, or very technology specific.
