I'm biased, having learned Python first, but the biggest thing that I miss in many other languages is the single "tutorial" link.
It should exist, it should be on the front-page (Python actually fails this, but it's on the documentation page, which is second-best), and it should be complete. Rust does surprisingly well on this point, given that it hasn't even hit 1.0 yet. It also should be browsable (it can incorporate interactive features, but you need to be able to do it out of order).
Coming from the "don't make me think school" you need that one link, rather than a link to a list of resources (like Ruby has). It also will be canonical and up to date, so long as nobody drops the ball. Google can't give you that.
