SICP

I have a confession /prog/. I did not read my SICP today, or ever for that matter.  I found the online version and fuck is that thing long.  I was wondering if its actually worth reading or is it just another text of the same "if you program good you will be a good programmer" with intermittent tongue and cheek humor peppered in shit.

If you can't even read a single book, you should really consider to kill yourself.
IHBT

Basically it's a guide to thinking differently about programs, and using the scheme language/functional paradigm in general. You definitely should give it a shot. Just set aside 20 minutes a day to read it, and soon you'll be a fucking warrior

It's an academic book from 30+ years ago that will also teach you Scheme. Read Cormen's Intro to Algorithms (3rd ed.) if you haven't already; it's more than sufficient. If you're into functional programming or AI, however, I'd say go for SICP.

AI
How is this related?
Or is it your way to say ``I haven't read SICP!''?

>>5
Lots of people use Scheme for AI.

SICP is about Scheme as much as TAoCP is about MIX assembly.
