Sorry to jump in... But why are you ssh'ing into your hosts over the open net? Why not tailscale? Why not wireguard?

Can't take it with you. (money)

I find it baffling that people are paying $300/month for what amounts to a simple set of HTML and a simple backend. That's insane.

Hey everyone! In the spirit of release early, release often, I wanted to post to Hacker News (for the first time ever!) about an idea of mine. Okay, so it's not a very original idea. It is however a missing gap in the Python ecosystem for learning and introduction to the language.

Check out the Tour of Go if you're not familiar with this concept already. The general idea is an in-browser interactive learning playground. (An in-browser REPL, if you will).

It needs more slides, it needs bugfixes and improvements overall, but the basic concept is here. The sandbox was implemented using code from healeycodes.com and ChatGPT did much of the other initial heavy lifting for me (I am a backend engineer by trade, my front-end skills are extremely rusty.)

The code is here: https://github.com/jadedragon942/tour_of_python/

Disclaimer: it is nothing too fancy.

My long-term lofty goal is to build this and hand it off to python.org if possible/feasible.
