Perhaps life skills - such as r/personal finance/wiki and
https://cs007.blog/ - would be an interesting and motivating topic?

Here's a simple model for generating a transactions.tsv (could be OFX XML,
like some banks now support) to generate reports from:
https://github.com/westurner/pypfi/blob/develop/pypfi/datagenerator.py

There are apparently other life skills that can probably be Python'd,
though:

evolving Jupyter Notebooks, a growing maze of pages to explore and talk
about (no enumeration of lessons).

Is there a graph of curriculum resources with URI names that are associated
with  concept URIs (e.g. Wikipedia/Dbpedia URLs) that we traverse in a more
or less optimal graph path?

A JSON-LD @id and the Schema.org/about RDFS Property should be sufficient
to describe such relations, though a subproperty of schema.org/about could
imply more about said relations; and RDFa could also be (implicitly)
IPython.display.display'd from an object with a _repr_html_ method.

What do you have, like next and previous links between Jupyter notebooks in
your executable books/jupyter-book?

Is there like zulip or mattermost chat?

Hey remember that time I did that impromptu guest pull request that bolted
on tests and exceptions and needed to refactor for testability? TDD.
