fwiw, Python and Ruby are compiled to bytecode prior to execution as well, just not with a separate command as with Java. Trying to explain the distinction between compiled and interpreted gets messy fast nowadays.

Well, yes, especially in quantum theory. Seeing as no one has any idea what quantum physics actually means (or at least there is no consensus) but it provides theoretical results that agree with experiment, the trend has been to "shut

Yes and no. I really want sophisticated cruise control for driving on the freeway, but for the most part I don't desire it for driving on surface streets. My real dream is that computer-driven cars can help reduce traffic because most

I recently heard someone advise for a friend to learn python2.7 instead of Python3. As someone not in the industry, this was surprising to me? Are companies/people still writing new code in python2?

How do you go about setting up a custom device file like that (/dev/whiteboard)? Is it just writing a device driver?

I feel like I must be missing something about the concept of a "smart home". Why can't I just leave the light switch (or any other controller) how it is and just have an additional Internet-based fancy control for automation
