Why not include "The Pragmatic Programmer"? Or at least it's tips poster if conciseness is preferred? I'm currently reading the 20th anniversary edition and it's great. I especially love the reasoning and research behind "Don't live with broken windows".
@jsmart523 It's finally coming together:

I just saw this list of amazing talks, thanks a lot by the way. And I thought this one could be on it:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8bZh5LMaSmE RailsConf 2014 - All the Little Things by Sandi Metz
It has very little to do with Ruby or Rails and more about complexity.@veggiemonk This is a great one. I disagree with her in that she doesn't consider the cost of indirection in her cost of complexity. In her admittedly trivial example, copy / paste would have been the right move... but I also can't say when inheritance would ever be a better solution that copy/paste.
That said, it' was also Kent's inspiration for "AHA" (the article was already linked). Thank you!
Reacted by Julien Bisconti@rofrol I'm glad to finally know where the Grug-Brain meme comes from. This is great. Top-shelf. I've added it to the top of the Rationale section.
Other than that it's a little difficult to read (due to the meme-language it's written in), it's the perfect voice of wisdom.

The Creeds of Software Craftsmanship
These are perhaps the most important archeological documents of the 21st century.
Need to pull out some of the other creeds from here:
Resources of Significant Importance
Here's a few more than don't quite fit the one-liner summary:
Talks on Software Engineering
PythonProgrammingOn Scaling
On Dependencies
On Critical Decisions
Needs Sorting...
Need to tease some stuff out of this:
Contemporary Bonuses
This one is too contemporary and specific to belong among the Creeds of Craftsmanship, but it certainly illuminates a type of problem that has come before and will come again. I'm just not sure how to tease it out into a distilled, more generic form.
Just Plain Good Talks, Ideas, etc
