It's trivial to decompile Java bytecode, and even decompiling machine code isn't all that hard. It really doesn't matter, just use Ruby for desktop apps if you like it.
You may be confusing strong typing with static typing. C is statically, weakly typed and Python is strongly, dynamically typed. PHP is weakly, dynamically typed.
Some of us simply don't like theaters and prefer to watch films at home. I pay for Netflix even though it has a tiny selection. The morons are figthing to keep more things out of netflix instead of putting everything there.
Seeing as how global warming is a fact and it's quite possible that it is largely human-caused, wouldn't it be prudent to take steps to reduce activity that might have caused it?

But there is no court decision one way or another. It's just one company's claim about another company's product.
I have the same chip in my laptop and I love it. I even get to play games, just finished DeathSpank.
Interesting. It worked for me.

Except the UK has no constitution, and few protections for free speech. It can also be argued that this shouldn't be protected speech anyway.
Apparently it was mostly to avoid sheathed swords hitting the other rider's horse. Combat on streets tended to be limited to stopping thieves.
They probably avoided Android because of their irrational hatred of Linux, and the apparent endorsement of it that such an endeavour would suggest.
OpenMoko, OLPC. Both had (and I believe still have) issues with memory usage and partial redraws.
Actually, X11 has been tried before on mobiles and was often found lacking. Android's rendering and windowing is just better than X11.
I've often wished for a HUD to allow me to read while walking around.
But why would this be an Android device of its own, rather than just an input/output device for my existing Android phone?
But kids have mandatory arts for example (at least in other countries), to get them exposed to it. They don't yet know what they like.
In fact, it's biologically more suitable for women to wear pants and men to wear skirt-y things.
We're using AndyPad Pros at work, and they're actually surprisingly nice for a £179 tablet.
Flask (Python), Pyramid also looks ok. Django I've come to dislike. Noir (Clojure) is also nice.
JavaScript is always minified anyway. There's a difference between development packages and distribution packages.
Even CoffeeScript is self-hosted.
This device could be much more useful if it shipped with a desktop linux distro, like Ubuntu or Fedora.
There are several devices with very good front lighting. Also, clip-on lights or things like the Kindle's cover are comfortable enough anyway.
I've started using Emacs with Evil. It's been really nice so far, any lisp, even elisp (dynamic scope, bleh) beats vimscript.
I believe the early Java API is just a compiler front-end. One can script a compiler written in java, however. Python's ast tools are indeed complete.
Even Java has had the compiler available as a library since the beginning. Python has good as tool too, a had for a while. Not revolutionary at all.
Just use PyPy. It's very, very fast for most things.
