Whenever I teach a Python workshop I have to make sure to go over this or it leads to confusion for about 20% of people.

But that's for new programmers. Either AngularJS is attracting people very new to programming, or there must be some popular language (not Haskell) where

    a = 10
    b = a
    a = 20
    b == a is True
is still true. What language that is, I don't know.
