Things I’ve been thinking about a lot lately:
- code design pressure (good: testability, bad: coupling business code with validation and/or storage – interestingly there’s been a #PyCascades talk about just that, framed using an obscure German mathematician)
- type state pattern, or: why I don't use state machines. This has nothing to do with static types but a continuation of “make illegal state unrepresentable”. Practically, this means that you’ll rarely see an `| None` in my class fields.
