Thank you for this article. I recently started teaching my sister how to program and chose Python thanks to articles/discussions on HN similar to this one. If you are taking pull requests here are a few suggestions: * "Honing Those Skills" + http://hginit.com http://hginit.com (Free, Web) [Why? I found it a wonderful intro to distributed version control in general and Mercurial specifically] + http://yuiblog.com/crockford/ http://yuiblog.com/crockford/ (Free, Video+Transcripts) [Why? Provided great context and in-depth details in a very efficient manner] * "Gettin’ Paid, Makin’ Money" + C# / .NET (Large job pool) * "Things You’ll Need" + Ability to take constructive criticism [Why? Get better faster. Appreciate user feedback.] * "Not Another Neckbeard" - Teh Womenz [Why? It's obvious from your comments that you do not feel this is sexist nor did you mean it to be. I would have to log this under "taking constructive criticism" however. You point out that you know women who don't mind but there are some women who are bothered by this and taking it out would not impact the goal of the article. If you can make 1 person feel better about your writing by removing it to avoid any misunderstandings while not altering your meaning, it seems like a win for all.]
