The science and engineering of light!
When dealing more specifically with individual photons, we usually call it photonics.

This is quite close! But as mentioned at: stars nearest to the Sun, there are several others nearby. Notably Sirius at 9 ly, the brightest star in the sky as of 2020.

Notably, it does not undergo crossover.
Minkowski inner product by Ciro Santilli 35 Updated +Created
This form is not really an inner product in the common modern definition, because it is not positive definite, only a symmetric bilinear form.

The enemy?
It does not matter how many trillions you donate to charity, Bill. If you want to prove your point, make MS Word free and open source and port it to Linux. And then Window implements POSIX-compatible APIs and then deprecate non-POSIX APIs.
MicroPython by Ciro Santilli 35 Updated +Created
It is interpreted. It actually implements a Python (-like ?) interpreter that can run on a microcontroller. See e.g.: Compile MicroPython code for Micro Bit locally.
As a result, it is both very convenient, as it does not require a C toolchain to build for, but also very slow and produces larger images.
Compile MicroPython code for Micro Bit locally by Ciro Santilli 35 Updated +Created
To use a prebuilt firmware, you can just use uflash, tested on Ubuntu 22.04:
git clone https://github.com/bbcmicrobit/micropython
cd micropython
git checkout 7fc33d13b31a915cbe90dc5d515c6337b5fa1660
uflash examples/led_dance.py
What that does is:
  • convert the MicroPython code to bytecode
  • join it up with a prebuilt firmware that ships with uflash which contains the MicroPython interpreter
  • flashes that
To build your own firmware see:
