Feel free to AMA about picking a pet/reptiles in general, I have a lot of recommendations for that!

  • Yeah, my real issue was that I erroneously assumed

    from lifxlan import LifxLAN

    WOULD import the Light function, but of course, it does not, I didn’t realize that when you do a from import you’re just importing a single specific command and not the whole library, and just used it like it was in the examples they gave, but thank you for the comment and this community is awesome, just that you were willing to write that all that out just to help me understand is incredibly kind, thank you!

    It is your phylogeny (not philosophy), you’re proposing a different phylogeny than science does.

    Archosaurs, such as crocodillians, diverged from a common ancestor BEFORE birds/dinosaurs did, from other reptiles.

    In order for what you’re saying to be true, we’d have to exclude crocodillians from being reptiles. No standard definition would not include crocodillians as reptiles. In modern taxonomy, we use what are called monophyletic groups to determine relatedness. Because of this, birds and all dinosaurs fall under the clade archosauria, and are therefore reptiles.

    In essence, what you’re proposing would be like saying “Your cousin is a reptile, but not your brother”
