Useful Links Collection

The Internet nowadays is an infinite source of information. It is our duty to shape/filter this information in a way that anyone at any given time knows where to search for the information that is needed.
If there is no thread similar to this, I would like to start a collection of useful links that points to free books on programming, good tools and general knowledge about development.
If there is anything missing (which is likely), just post the link and I'll copy it into this list.

I did not know about devdocs! Thanks a lot. Exactly the reason why I think that such a thread is needed on every forum that covers this topic. :)
