Book list for streetfighting computer scientists

2022 edition. this is very different from most "best books for programmers" lists you'll see, with like "Code Complete" and "Clean Code" and "Wistful Wanking for Practical Wankers" and titles like that. you'll figure that all out as you go along. do you need to read all of these? only if you want to know the shit inside, i guess.
