Great news today for experimenting with programming languages: Microsoft has announced that an upcoming Windows 10 update will bring a full bash shell. Should make it much easier to work with programming languages for people who don't want to either go 100% Linux, dual-boot, run it in a VM, or learn to wrangle Cygwin. |

I can't wait to see what RMS has to say about this.
