If I have to push buttons to control the lights, systems, etc. myself then that's not "automation", that's being too lazy to walk the 10 feet to the switch. I want things such as for the house to know that if you have 3 people sitting on the couch and the DVD/DVR/whatever is set to play that it should dim the damn lights itself.
That they barely knew what they were doing. But what do Java and Python have to do with it?
It's not the shit we've been stuffing into their bodies for decades, it's their phones. That makes all the sense in the world.

If it was always getting things right then it would be prophecy, not science. Science is the art of getting things wrong in order to figure out what's correct.

The pirates win again, and honest people suffer.
Wow, not even reading the title. Congratulations, you have reached the pinnacle of Slashdot laziness.
So who then will be taking the other 18%?
An adequate bootstrap is a contradiction in terms.
