Lacking a lot of information here.

Which part of what I wrote, most of which you snipped, do you
disagree with, specifically?  Would You recommend TAOCP as a
reference for working programmers?  What about it do you like?
Is there anything about it that you do not like?

Perhaps I should clarify: I recommend _studying_ it.  I do not
recommend it as an everyday reference for programmers, nor for
learning data structures and algorithms; I thought that would
have been obvious from the context that you omitted.
