Validating file uploads in Django?
After some more research, i found this package (https://github.com/ahupp/python-magic) that returns the file type / mime type. Would this be sufficient or is this one still prone to "very easy attacks".

Writing a C# Book for O'Reilly
It would be very cool if in your book you wrote some tutorials with some “real world” line of business apps that communicate with a database and maybe have an API. Or even a real world library such as PathLib (just a library for working with cross platform paths). It’s cool to know how to add numbers, or make a turn-based game, but when it comes to working with objects like WindowsPath or a Product, or dare I say a “domain”, I find it really hard to find documentation on functional programming in this light.
