What...is with that UI? Between the cut-off titles and the mouseover image spinning, I left in less than 10 seconds. Here's a better, non-seizure inducing list: https://github.com/mvillaloboz/open-source-cs-degree

These are the sort of resources I wish I had available when I was in high school. What a tremendous bounty we now have.

Has anyone put together a list like this for a subject like chemistry?

This is a pretty poor platform to point you to edx/coursera courses.

Try this one...much better.

Khan Academy is great, but not what I was asking.

It's a pretty good attempt at what you're asking (it's college level chemistry with fantastic instructors, for free, online)

CS is pretty unique in the realm of things that typically require a 4 year degree to work in that are accomplishable without. The required capital is sitting on most desks in the country. Chloroform less so

I imagine it would be almost entirely impossible to work in bioscience without a relevant degree.

Then my favorite essay of programming is this ;) http://norvig.com/21-days.html

A list of courses is not enough, haha

As far as I can see all the courses are free. So there is no damage or profit in pointing people there, is it?
