What's better about Ruby than Python? I'm sure there's something. What is
it?
This is not a troll. I'm language shopping and I want people's answers. I
don't know beans about Ruby or have any preconceived ideas about it. I have
noticed, however, that every programmer I talk to who's aware of Python is
also talking about Ruby. So it seems that Ruby has the potential to compete
with and displace Python. I'm curious on what basis it...

I'm realizing I didn't frame my question well.
What's ***TOTALLY COMPELLING*** about Ruby over Python? What makes you jump
up in your chair and scream "Wow! Ruby has *that*? That is SO FRICKIN'
COOL!!! ***MAN*** that would save me a buttload of work and make my life
sooooo much easier!"
As opposed to minor differences of this feature here, that feature there.
Variations on style are of no interest to me. I'm coming at this from a...

Dear Friends,
Python assignment is a reference assignment. However, I really can't
explain the difference in the following example. When the object is
a list, the assignment seems to be a reference. However, when the
object is a number, the story is so different. I don't understantd
for what reason Python deals with them differently. The example is
as follows:
>>> a =
>>> b = a

Well, after playing with python for a bit I came across something
weird:
The statement (1 > None) is false (or any other value above 0). Why is
this?
(The reason I ask is sortof unrelated. I wanted to use None as a
variable for which any integer, including negative ones have a greater
value so that I wouldn't need to implement any tests or initializations

I was under the assumption that everything in python was a refrence...
so if I code this:
lst =
for i in lst:
if i==2:
i = 4

I though the contents of lst would be modified.. (After reading that

I've been reading about Python Classes, and I'm a little confused about
how Python stores the state of an object. I was hoping for some help.
I realize that you can't create an empty place holder for a member
variable of a Python object. It has to be given a value when defined,
or set within a method.
But what is the difference between an Attribute of a Class, a
Descriptor in a Class, and a Property in a Class?

I'm a little confused. Why doesn't s evaluate to True in the first part,
but it does in the second? Is the first statement something different?
False
print 'hi'

Thanks.

Overview:
Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

With the development of smart home technology, a variety of wireless communication protocols have appeared on the market, such as Zigbee, Z-Wave, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, etc. Each protocol has its own unique characteristics and advantages, but as a user who is planning to build a smart home system, I am a bit confused by the choice of these technologies.

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own....
Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers. The idea...

Hello
I'm a network technician in training and I need your help.
I am currently learning how to create and manage the different types of VPNs and I have a question about LAN-to-LAN VPNs.
The last exercise I practiced was to create a LAN-to-LAN VPN between two Pfsense firewalls, by using IPSEC protocols.
I succeeded, with both firewalls in the same network. But I'm wondering if it's possible to do the same thing, with 2 Pfsense firewalls...
