  • When you start learning about different paradigms, you’ll likely learn much more about inheritance when learning about the Object Oriented design paradigm.

    To overly simplify, you create objects that inherit attributes from other objects. It’s for instance a way to create reusable patterns, that have stronger and more reliable data structures.

    I made the joke comment, because for instance, you could create a Turtle class, and always know it was a Turtle. Again, an oversimplification.

    EDIT: I should also add that for some reason OOP is an oddly divisive subject. Developers always seem to want to argue about it.




  • I can confirm that the one I used 3 years ago could stream Netflix and HBO from browser, no problem. It also handled local files in VLC like a champ.

    I even installed Steam and played a handful of non-resource-intensive games on it.

    I’d buy another in a heartbeat for use as media rig. This time I’d install barebones Debian on it, instead of med-weight MX like I did prior. It’d probably perform even better.
