> mypy makes Python a pleasure to work with again.

This is my experience as well. I love that I have the option to use Python typed and untyped. For little scripts, fiddles, prototypes, etc. it's often convenient to omit type annotations. For solid software that runs in production it's nice to have them.

Another thing that I'm excited about is nuitka [0], a Python to C compiler that allows you to create binaries from Python code. It cut start-up time of a command line tool that I compiled with in half.
