What about MITECS? [1] Is it outdated?

Eliezer Yudkowsky recommended it[2]. But I'm not sure if he still would.

I know you work at MIT, what do you use?

That's just a reference volume. It's fine for what it is, but really as a launching off point for specific topics. And reading it cover to cover would get old, fast.
