Always wanted to learn something in the best way possible? A good, informative book is always the tried-and-true method. Ask about what you want to know, and through literature you shall receive.
From personal experience (fight me if you think I'm wrong):
Perl - Beginning Perl, Intermediate Perl, Mastering Perl
Java - Ivor Horton; Beginning Java
C - Ivor Horton; Beginning C
C++ - Tony Gaddis; From Control Structures through Objects
AS3 (if you really wanted to) - Richard Shupe; Learning ActionScript 3.0
On the side - Let over Lambda, Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programming, But How do it Know?
What's a good one for OpenGL? I'm thinking "CG through OpenGL: From Theory to Experiments" is seeming to be alright.

Those are much hit-and-miss. I surely hope you're not going to recommend Kantekar or Bullschildt next.

I read this book, except for Java, not C++. It wasn't bad for one's first programming book, but I feel like there are better options out there.
I found this in a /dpt/. I'll also post my small collection, which I either found browsing http://it-ebooks.info or snatched from libgen after seeing it recommended in a thread like this.

Currently going through Accelerated C++ (would definitely recommend), the rest are books I'll go through "one day".
Finally, the /g/ wiki has a decent list of books related mostly to programming/CS: https://wiki.installgentoo.com/index.php/Programming_resources

For newbies getting somebody's slop code dumped in your lap, I would strongly recommend reading Martin Fowler's Refactoring: Improving the Design of Existing Code. A lot of it may seem obvious as a glance, but he spends the time give and explain the analysis techniques needed to rework code. Uncle Bob's Clean Code gets recommended a lot, but it ends up committing all of its coding sins as literary ones and winds up an obtuse, unnecessarily difficult book.
