Coming from a long history of languages like BASIC and Pascal, I will bookmark this tutorial. It seems to open up a lot of interesting Python features that were, quite frankly, not always easy to understand when described in plain text, but now seem pretty simple when presented as examples.

I'll also think about the "collection of simple examples" next time I want to document something.

I used to bookmark tutorials like this, but now ...

I just bookmark the HN discussion. Not only does that retain a link to the tutorial, but it also retains a link to a discussion that usually adds value to the tutorial.

I'm assuming that HN discussions remain available for many years. Anyone know for sure if that is/isn't true?

Instapaper has become my bookmarking tool. I don't even really sort it out anymore. I know it should be there when I need it and mostly the actual article is saved.
I hope so.
