I will admit that there is definately something wrong when I find better tech advice here on /g/ as opposed to a more refined outlet (Reddit, HN, etc).
But yeah, the best way I can describe /g/ is a thousand developers bullshitting all the time. So you get good knowledgeable content, but you have to peel back the memes and neckbeard posts.

There's some pictures included in the above link (like this one) that have more recommendations.
There's also the /g/entoomen Library:

And for an even bigger library, there's libgen, which covers a shitton of subjects besides CS:

In reality it is just a handful of NEETs all faking superiority

you google drive collection is great, thanks. finally found some decent pdf of 'Code Complete 2' and 'X86 Assembly Language and C Fundamentals' seems like exactly the kind of book I was looking for
>>54247496
Thanks, glad I could help. Got most of them from libgen, would definitely recommend for 80% of your needs, the other 20% was taken down by DMCA.

I like Rand Paul's book

How do they even get those covers?
I also suppose I'll dump some o'reilly books I have saved.

To read list
For C++, pic related.
Common Lisp (or any Lisp):

Haskell:

Unfortunately I learned every other language I know through lots of Google searches.
Every general knowledge programming book I've read so far was an opinionated piece of shit more concerned about "proper" coding convention than useful knowledge, but I'd be happy to see a counterexample.
