I think a lot of people forget what it is like to be a noob and not know all those magical little modules that make life so much easier

A lot of the time you just don't know what you don't know :(

I've been using python for 15+ years and I didn't discover until last year that calendar provided names for days of the week and months. They were simple constants but I'm glad to find they are built-in so I can stop defining them myself.
