Carmack has more or less confirmed it. https://twitter.com/ID_AA_Carmack/status/1622673143469858816
That confirms the existence of a list, there’s zero indication it’s this list.
Some time ago I also copied the list at https://punkx.org/jackdoe/30.html so its easier to wget (e.g. get all the arxiv pdfs) wget -A .pdf -r -H -D arxiv.org -nd https://punkx.org/jackdoe/30.html A friend and me used pdfunite to join them in one pdf and then printed them in a local printing shop in good a4 paper https://www.printenbind.nl/ as a spiral book, the end result is very good (also there is space around the…
How many pages is the spiral book?

Ah, the freedoms of not having any other responsibilities.
If you can't take a single week off of work during an entire year in order to advance your career, then you're satisfied with your current one.

I wasn't aware of the Kolmogorov complexity book; it seems great, I'll be devouring this soon!
