I rely mostly on hypertext for referencing, mostly through Dash for macOS and man pages. Books that I still occasionally reference:
- Speech and Language Processing, Jurafsky & Martin
- K&R
- Sedgewick & Wayne, but more for teaching than anything else.
In a previous life:
- The C++ Standard Library, Nicolai Josuttis,
- C++ GUI Programming with Qt 4, Jasmin Blanchette and Mark Summerfield
- The C++ Programming Language, Bjarne Stroustrup
- Effective Java, Joshua Bloch
- Scott Meyers' Effective C++ books.
