How do I get started with Internet of Things programming?

AI Thread Summary
For those seeking a microcontroller suitable for Internet of Things (IoT) projects, Arduino microcontrollers, particularly the Arduino Micro for compact applications, and Raspberry Pi are highly recommended due to their affordability and ease of programming. Both platforms offer extensive development resources and support for various connectivity options, including Ethernet, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth. Additionally, the BeagleBone is suggested as another viable option for IoT tinkering, providing further flexibility for project development.

I would recommend the Arduino microcontrollers (Arduino Micro if you want a smaller version) and the Raspberry Pi. They're both great for simple projects and won't break your wallet. Each one has various ethernet, wi-fi, and bluetooth hardware that you can add for connecting together.
 
Second the Raspberry Pi and add in the Beagle Bone...
 
In my discussions elsewhere, I've noticed a lot of disagreement regarding AI. A question that comes up is, "Is AI hype?" Unfortunately, when this question is asked, the one asking, as far as I can tell, may mean one of three things which can lead to lots of confusion. I'll list them out now for clarity. 1. Can AI do everything a human can do and how close are we to that? 2. Are corporations and governments using the promise of AI to gain more power for themselves? 3. Are AI and transhumans...
Sorry if 'Profile Badge' is not the correct term. I have an MS 365 subscription and I've noticed on my Word documents the small circle with my initials in it is sometimes different in colour document to document (it's the circle at the top right of the doc, that, when you hover over it it tells you you're signed in; if you click on it you get a bit more info). Last night I had four docs with a red circle, one with blue. When I closed the blue and opened it again it was red. Today I have 3...
