Each of these commands will run an ad hoc http static server in your current (or specified) directory, available at http://localhost:8000. Use this power wisely.
$ python -m SimpleHTTPServer 8000
If you use git on the command-line, you'll eventually find yourself wanting aliases for your most commonly-used commands. It's incredibly useful to be able to explore your repos with only a few keystrokes that eventually get hardcoded into muscle memory.
Some people don't add aliases because they don't want to have to adjust to not having them on a remote server. Personally, I find that having aliases doesn't mean I that forget the underlying commands, and aliases provide such a massive improvement to my workflow that it would be crazy not to have them.
The simplest way to add an alias for a specific git command is to use a standard bash alias.

Over the past couple years I have seen many threads asking about project ideas. I have seen a few answers, and given a few answers, that listed a couple common projects. I never felt it was a good enough job to just list 2 or 3 topics. So I have set forth on a mission to compile a list of projects (common and not) for all you programmers out there in search of a simple learning project. No these are not going to be thesis level projects and are meant to also spark ideas for ways to expand from these ideas.
Below you will find 150 project ideas I have come up with just brainstorming. I have divided them into 10 different topic areas that I think the project may use the most. Keep in mind that a few of these projects could have been classified in more than one topic.
So I hope you enjoy and here they are!

The best explanation of Python decorators I’ve ever seen. (An archived answer from StackOverflow.)
NOTE: This is a question I found on StackOverflow which I’ve archived here, because the answer is so effing phenomenal.
If you are not into long explanations, see [Paolo Bergantino’s answer][2].

Sorry, I have to disagree with the entire premise here.
A wide variety of experiences might lead to well-roundedness, but not to greatness, nor even goodness. By constantly switching from one thing to another you are always reaching above your comfort zone, yes, but doing so by resetting your skill and knowledge level to zero.
Mastery comes from a combination of at least several of the following:

FWIW: I (@rondy) am not the creator of the content shared here, which is an excerpt from Edmond Lau's book. I simply copied and pasted it from another location and saved it as a personal note, before it gained popularity on news.ycombinator.com. Unfortunately, I cannot recall the exact origin of the original source, nor was I able to find the author's name, so I am can't provide the appropriate credits.

I am currently dealing with a lot of libraries at work. Both third party as well as libraries written or being currently in process of being written by me. I absolutely love writing and working with libraries. Especially if they present or bring me to either a new or different approach to solve a problem. Or at least provide a different view.
Over time I noticed however that quite regulary we had to decide that we cannot use a third party library. Often it is the usual reason.

Using markdocs to Python documentation (markdown) - Idea - WIP
UNDER DEVELOPMENT HERE: https://github.com/rochacbruno/markdocs
I still think that the problem of lack of good documentation in the Python ecosystem is also related to .rst format and the use of complicated tools like Sphinx.
I'm enjoying writing functional documentation using Markdown in Rustlang, so I'll do experiments to have the same functionality in Python. Take a look at rustdoc and here an example of documentation site generated for a Rust crate using markdown comments.
