O'Reilly site lists 165 things every programmer should know

  If your crafts requires you to know 165 things then you know nothing. Cathedral builders where using only one rope to make all the complex operations, and cathedrals at the opposite of software were made to last. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arithmetic_rope https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arithmetic_rope

    Right, because that's only skill required when building cathedrals, and we are totally not oversimplifying any craft here .... right.

  Interesting. I have on my shelves a copy of O'Reilly Associates' 97 Things Every Programmer Should Know, copyright February 2010, ergo an increase of roughly seven things per year.
