some have it high on their list, others dislike it and the cargo cult around it.
I won't say I dislike it; rather, I don't believe every problem or solution can decompose as neatly as they describe. Professionally, I've always had to support the work of other people. So even if I don't worship at the altar of Design Patterns, I need to know what they are and how they work. And, after all, your question concerned what every programmer should read, not what they should agree with. 8-)
I did something out of Design Patterns when I read it, but I was doing more C/C++ stuff at the time.
Ditto.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
