Does anyone have any further thoughts on these? Should I split these into
separate threads?

Well, I think const can be useful for:
* multiprocessing. Now, for example, dict is passed between processes
using MappingP

Somehow I've used Python for 22 years without experiencing that direness.
I've taught thousands of students already experienced in other langua
Is it really worth it?
Fact is, while it can shave off some lines of code,
I think it is interesting to know _which_ lines of code -
Usually when one writes a decorator, it is expected that they
will know what they are writing, and will want to be in control of
their code. Delegating this to a d
The idea of `decorator_factory` is to eliminate boilerplate code that used to
create a decorator with parameters.
A perfect example is how `dataclass` decorator can be simplified from this:
```
def dataclass(cls=None, /, *, init=True, repr=True, eq=True, order=False,
unsafe_hash=Fal
After discussion at the python issue tracker, the better name
`decorator_factory` was proposed.
I have just gone through the standard library code to find places where
`decorator_factory` can be used.
1. `dataclasses.dataclass`
```
def dataclass(cls=None, /, *, init=True, repr=True, eq=True, or
