Mostly self-taught: BASIC/ASM on a C64 using the Programmer's Reference and Compute!'s Gazette. Taught myself C on a Mac Plus by writing a game over winter break during my first year at university.
There's so much documentation available now (more than was available years ago) for so many open-source and free resources out there.
For me, though, the biggest assist to really learning something is having a project. Whether it's at my employer or a personal thing, a project drives me much better to learn something than documentation alone.
