Glad to see this high up. I'd be surprised if I've gotten even 1% of my programming knowledge from a video. When going "down the rabbit-hole", I find myself drawn towards c2.com and Lambda the Ultimate. Not only are they full of text, but they've got that 1990s website look and feel. There's always StackExchange too.
Of course, YMMV. There are plenty of other good sites out there, and there's usually a manual for the language you're interested in, such as the Common Lisp Hyperspec. Even Java had an online manual back in the 90s. I remember it had a hiking theme, with "trails". I wonder if that's still out there...
I've seen that before and never went beyond the front page humor; but when you click on the top center link it does indeed have a good reference section. Thanks.

I can find information a lot quicker from a manual or article as opposed to watching a video.
