Lots of online discussion in subject based BBSs and forums and MOOs, as I remember. Toy problems and teaching problems and polishing your journeyman-piece first patch until it’s clear and explained.
There’s more people trying and nobody used to think they could get rich programming and whoo boy some laws have changed. But also there are more places to start because there’s so much more software.

@csolisr Argh, chatbots are going to flood the bbs equivalents, dang it. Yesno? I really don’t want the answer to be in-person introductions because I remember the dialup period as being better for people who didn’t “look like” programmers.
