Evolution put a man on the moon already in 1969. Maybe you will not accept this statements for similar reasons like the ones driving your essay.

This is a misunderstanding. You can read my question as "According to [..] the SICP is one of the top 10 CS books. Which, do you think, are those?" I'm just interested because it seems SICP is THE book on programming, and I wonder: Which ot

The mini-bio of Gerald Sussman on the right-hand side states that "Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs .. is universally acknowledged as one of the top ten textbooks in computer science". I'm curious why they explicitely speak

Python is a good language to start. You should definitely avoid BASIC. Quoting E. Dijkstra: "It is practically impossible to teach good programming to students that have had a prior exposure to BASIC: as potential programmers they are menta

Well, the hacker news feature a lot of programming-related stuff that is certainly 'above' the (average) blog post level (in the whole blogosphere). I know of no better meta-filter than hacker news for blog entries attracting a hacker's min
