I lack friends to discuss interests with. I want to study programming but have no peers in the field. They say "Hang around five billionaires, and you'll become the sixth", and I believe this statement is a crucial thing about personal development. Networking is not my strong point, and communities often gatekeep unexperienced newbies. So, how do I actually find interest-based buddies?

Maybe check events at your local library? Maybe Meetup.com or Facebook events? Maybe you could audit a programming course at a local college? Just a few thoughts, others will probably have better suggestions. I'm not much of a programmer.
