Satya's blog - The Practice of Programming

If I've said this before, it's worth mentioning again:

Read Kernighan and Pike's The Practice of Programming. If you're a programmer, or want to be one, you must read this book. At least skip the code and read the generalisations. It's worth it, trust me! This is the programming equivalent of The Mythical Man-month.

Read Kernighan and Ritchie's famous C book while you're at it. I don't remember the title; it's always called "K&R".

Hey, I spelled 'remember' correctly!
