I personally started out reading blogs and a few YouTube channels. Eventually got curious about one of the newer languages and started taking an hour or two here and there reading more about it.

That turned into trying out simple hello world programs and eventually I found it started becoming way more interesting than my current job and found a job using it.

A lot of my network often read books and attend conferences so there's that too (not my cup of tea but everyone's got their preferred outlet)
