I have a $100 Visa Gift Card and I want to buy books from Amazon. I am currently trying to currently excel in web development, my current "strong point" are:
>typical HTML/CSS
>Javascript/Typescript
>Php and MySQL
>Angular 2
Right now I think it would be best for me to learn:
>Database Skills (already bought a book focusing on Intermediate MySQL Skills)
>Sysadmin (Unix/Linux or maybe Microsoft)
>More Meme JS skills (MongoDB and Node, Already woroking on an Angular 2 book to better myself with that)
>Meme WebDev shit for package management (Webpack, Gulp, Composer)
What would you do if you were in my position besides telling me to kill myself /g/?
kill yourself

You missed your chance. They were giving away all these books for like $15 a couple weeks ago.
If you want a future in webdev you'll need to constantly move to whatever the current meme language is. So grab a book on Ruby or something (idk)
However if you want to do something useful with your life, consider bash scripting, unix development, and web+network security. If you're feeling really brave consider system/server administration
Pirate them instead and get a dildo, skirt and high knee socks

thank you anon, I can probably pirate most of these books unless they are very new

This.
If a book is worth reading, it's downloadable as a .pdf somewhere, first page of google results.

You guys do have great points, I do prefer hard copies of books but I want to stretch this 100 out as far as possible. What would you guys spend this 100 on to make yourselves better webdevs?

There was a thread not to long after the bundle came out where someone uploaded a .zip of them all. Check an archive I'm sure you'll find it

Literally nothing. Buy a server rack and some routers and set up a little network to host your sites or something.

I'd torrent everything I can find for a few days, then list up what I couldn't find that's interesting/needed. Shortlist the important shit from there.

Brian Greene's fabric of the cosmos

Tigers in the Mud, Zaloga's M10/M36, M18, Japanese tanks 1939-45, Estes' M103, and Hunnicutt's Bradley at least
programming books for c and some derivates
have a good c++ book already, but c++ is just too damn complicated, a simeple println or printf is something like system.std.output.print or something
your basically typing and typing and typing for no real reason at all

I got a $100 gift card for this books store in Australia from my school and I also do not know what to buy.
