Using the criterion at the bottom of the page: "a specific book I would tell myself to read at the beginning of my career as a developer", the closest for me is probably The Pragmatic Programmer.

Not The Tao Te Ching (huh?), not Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance (really now?), not Advanced Windows (that I did read near the beginning of my career as a Windows C++ programmer), not any of The Little/Seasoned/Reasoned Schemer (all of which I read and I had tremendous fun with).

IMHO, this sounds more like a "I'm a programmer and this is a book I remember fondly" kind of list.
