Leam, I'm not sure how this helps anyone who wants to find some help 
learning Python. It skates so close to particular ideologies as to be 
indistinguishable from such. It's possible post-secondary education in 
the USA is now as broken as the lower levels have been (and to inject 
some of my own ranting: that's been a long-term objective of those of a 
certain political leaning), but commenting on that seems quite out of 
place here. Perhaps keep those types of comments to yourself or forums 
that trade in such?

P.S.: some context - my father was a university professor, and I can 
100% guarantee that his participation in that world had absolutely 
nothing to do with not having "the brains or the guts to survive in a 
commercial environment". That is just plain fucking offensive, besides 
being wrong.
