Ask HN: Going full MIT OCW

Inspired by "How MIT OpenCourseWare transformed a learner's life"[1] and the lack of "good" university courses that are available from remote location in my country I thought about doing some courses on OCW for knowledge and hopefully fun, hoping it might give back something in life and maybe increase chances for a new job.

Here is my ordered list: 6.0001 Introduction to Computer Science and Programming in Python 6.0002 Introduction to Computational Thinking and Data Science 6.S096 Introduction to C and C++ 6.001 Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs 6.005 Software Construction 6.042J Mathematics for Computer Science. 6.006 Introduction to Algorithms (Fall 2011) 6.046J Design and Analysis of Algorithms. --- 6.824 Distributed Computer Systems Engineering 6.828 Operating System Engineering

Obviously it is a bit light on the mathematics and I will probably add more courses (or not), so that might change.

Any comments/remarks on this list?

Currently I know the basics of C, python, Java and SQL but I feel like I'm missing some more formal education on the subjects.
