I stumbled upon this interesting article this morning: How to Be a Programmer. But it is not all about bits and bytes and has an interesting section on How to Utilize People as Information Sources. If you are a real geek (as in nerdy geek), you might need to read How to Talk to Non-Engineers. And here is a real gem: How to Document Wisely…

An unofficial Python Tutorial is at growing in the InfoGami wiki system. It has a nice layout and the code examples are easy to read. See for instance the section on Python Modules, or the Brief Tour of the Standard Python Library. I just really appreciate it when the page layout is so clean and easy to read, code examples sprinkled like spice — which makes this technical documentation for Python easy to study.
