20 short tutorials all data scientists should read (and practice)
The new, completed version of this Data Science Cheat Sheet can be found here.
We are now at 20, up from 17. I hope I find the time to write a one-page survival guide for UNIX, Python and Perl. Here's one for R. The links to core data science concepts are below - I need to add links to web crawling, attribution modeling and API design. Relevancy engines are discussed in some of the tutorials listed below. And that will complete my 10-page cheat sheet for data science.
Here's the list:

Thank you for the great resources that help researchers in their projects.
I recommend this website to learn how to program in java:
http://how-to-program-in-java.com/
It was really helpful for me.

Vince, this is great for aspiring data scientists! I think it is a great resource! Something else I have found beneficial that lets me focus on my data rather than spinning up the analytic stacks is a tool called Stackspace. Its in beta, but has save me a ton of time!
