[Tom Warren] The PS5 Pro still hasn’t sold out in the US or UK. Looks like the $700 price point will mean this console will be readily available this holiday (lemmy.world)

Compiling means that you take code then run that code trough a program that checks if the code works like intended. After that it will put out a binary/exe/whatever that you can work with further.

From wiki:

In computing, a compiler is a computer program that translates computer code written in one programming language into another language. The name "compiler" is primarily used for programs that translate source code from a high-level programming language to a low-level programming language to create an executable program. There are many different types of compilers which produce output in different useful forms.

And I have no idea what that means.

How do you reboot? You click start>power>reboot.

I know what that means.

Ask me to compile a script? Uhhhhh.......

The code is your ingredients, you put the ingredients together, then bake it (compile). When it's done you have a pie (a program you can execute and run).

A lot of people would rather just go to a store and buy a pie.
