I know people say this all the time, but I nearly did not click the link, because it said scribd. It turns out it's a pdf served at this address, along with another link to scribd in the brackets: https://noggin.intel.com/sites/default/files/Intel-Recommend... "I think the title should read [pdf] and [scribd]"

That makes it a bit more clear that it's a different source for the same document.

I'll bite - what's wrong with scribd ? (besides the fact you might "stumble" upon documents you're not supposed to read)
I am slightly disappointed by the list - for example C# threading is a book from 2003 and .NET has evolved a lot since then (Task, async, etc.). There are other, more recent books that represent current state of art in C#. Perhaps the reading list shouldnt state the year for which it is intended for?

I know Scribd is a Y Combinator's company.

I think moving the scribd link to the right of the source domain might help. Something like this: http://i.imgur.com/PAElgoK.png http://i.imgur.com/GPa0DS8.png (Standard browser zoom level) That makes it a bit more clear that it's a different source for the same document.
Earlier quoted context omitted.
What would you recommend instead?
See, that's part of the problem. It's not at all clear what this list aimed to accomplish, which explains the low quality of the result. You want me to recommend a book? Sure. Read Hemingway.
A surprisingly low-quality, diluted, conformist list of mostly boring and outdated books. You can't expect much innovation to come from a team reading this. I scanned through the list 3 times looking for something of value, but nothing caught my eye. Disappointed by Intel.
I am waiting.

For a platform that is supposed to enable the user to read documents online, it fails by not enabling the user to, you know, read documents online. Oh, sure, sometimes I might get lucky and be able to read the first 4 of 37 slides without the application stopping to respond or crashing my tab.
