Zed may be a divisive character, but he's a net-good for the larger programming community as far as I'm concerned. Very few people take the time and resources to put out that much free content and supplementary learning material. While I personally didn't learn anything the hard way, I kno a few people who wouldn't have been able to "get it" if it wasn't for one of Zed's books. So even though I disagree with a lot of his opinions (especially about OOP), it's cool to see that Zed Shaw still doing his thing in 2016.
