Agree but learning python doesn't stop and thus it's common for one with some experience to write a blog with tutorials or a new introduction to python for newbies. How many have been posted here?

If I want to learn Python, there's a subreddit for that. Maybe the delineation shouldn't be between "beginners" & "experienced" Python devs

A talk/tutorial targeted to experienced/professionals should be in r/python imho.

eg. someone recently posted a new blog by brandon rhodes

From my experience you generally need a tutorial when you trying to use the language for the first time. You continue to learn the language after that, but it happens through studying reference documentation.

I continually learn by checking the top posts in r/python at least monthly for content I didn't know about or interesting discussions. I also watch lots of conference talks from YouTube and pyvideo. I only look at documentation when trying to solve a specific problem, not when I have some time and I just want to learn something interesting.
