Quantum mechanics. I should have studied it better when I was at university and my math was fresher :)

#13- elixir pheonix (waiting for the 1.3+ book)
- C (I have the modern C book, just need to do it. My end goal is to get a PR into the linux kernel)
- SICP + lisp
- basic design, so I can have some idea of where to put things/page structure
I keep track this kind of stuff in a trello list. I have a lot in the ToDo column

#14Undergrad-level topology, at least enough to understand what a sheaf is.
Re: Ask HN: What are topics that you want to learn but haven't gotten around to?
#15Embedded systems, compiler design, Rust, GraphQL. There are too many things I want to learn...
Why not Deeo Learning?

#18I'd really like to get into hobby electronics, specifically DIY guitar pedal design. There's a great subreddit, /r/diypedals, which I've been lurking for a while, I just haven't made the dive into buying my first kit and soldering equipment. Does anyone here on HN have any tips or words of wisdom?
No tips, but I think this is one of the best ways to learn electronics. I took electronics classes in university but it wasn't until I actually had real circuits that I wanted to build (in my case amplifiers) that the material really started clicking for me.

#19A front-end JS framework. Every time I look in to it there's 328 new ones and 5,149 reasons not to use the old one.

#20In no particular order: - A deep and real understanding of the blockchain. - Clojure. I've heard that it is not only fun, but changes the way you approach programming in general. I don't have any professional need for it, though. - Truly understanding how neural networks work. - Rust, although this is similar to Clojure above; I don't know what I'd actually use it for.

Not for network applications. It's nearly impossible to make async tcp server right now. But it's promising language. So let it mature.
