Something I wish existed but if it does I can't find it: a general "learning prerequisites and pointers" database. Given a concept/topic, tell me what the topic is called in academia, point me to the standard textbooks/opencourseware, and give me a dependency graph of "other stuff you should know first".
Right now I'm having to do this by stumbling upon the right course at some university, and working backwards from the course prerequisites.
