These are resources that I use to learn about Linux/UNIX and often recommend to friends.

NewsGroups:

The two newsgroup that I often read are comp.os.linux.development.system and comp.os.linux.development.apps.

STL information
If you are a C++ programmer and need to STL in your application, SGI has an excellent website about STL.

Assembly programming
Paul Carter's text on assembly is good starting point. There is also "The Art of Assembly Language Programming" by Randal Hyde.

General programming information
I always go Microsoft MSDN for general C/C++ inquiries. Microsoft gives free access to MSDN on the internet.
