I'll try to focus on my Building Skills in OO Design book there. I'm thinking of adding some more code examples. Is that a good idea?

Maybe that should be the higher-level Patreon benefit?

Python 3.8 features

The Cool New Features in Python 3.8 lists some of the things that could become part of The Modern Python Cookbook 2e. I'm working with Packt on a plan for creating a new edition focused on Python 3.8 features, and using mypy to validate the type hints.

I'm learning a lot about my previously sketchy designs and potential problems with some of them. There are a number of things in Python which "work" in a vague hand-wavey way. But they don't work in a "I can convince mypy this will work" way. 

The additional "convince mypy" rigor can separate potentially sketchy design from an unassailable design.
