3. Overview
In the "URL Path" section

Really enjoyed the book! The lighthearted tone was refreshing and I got a lot out of this. Can't wait for the full version to see what's coming to fill the placeholders. I found 2 errors, though - no big deal. Note, I had to format this in a weird way because O'Reilly's errata submission form apparently doesn't like URLs and would not allow me to submit the form with the examples typed out properly...which is a very weird thing to do in a web form for technical books that by their nature will have lots of URLs in them. Go figure.

In the example code for the 'requests' module:

→ >>> import requests
>>> r = requests.get("localhost:8000/hi/Mom")
>>> r.json()
'Hello? Mom?'

The h t t p : / / was left out. Should be ("h t t p : / / localhost : 8000 / hi / Mom")

Also in section 4. The Web Parts, under Types of Concurrency, 2nd paragraph: simple typo. Says 'machiner' when I'm pretty sure you meant 'machine'.

Thanks again! Good stuff!
