DM is Debian Maintainer, and the code seems to be MIT licensed and available to all.

You must have a really old alarm clock. And why wouldn't you correct the time manually if you know it's drifting?

Well... .at() is bounds checked, but operator[] (which is what most people use) isn't. It should probably have been the other way around, I'd say.

My point was that, if, after your country leaves the EU, all your citizens opt to keep EU citizenship, then (through self-determination) they have given the EU a claim to continued sovereignty over your territory.

That's because templates have no type-checking in C++. Ideally, you wouldn't be able to do this with concepts, but I don't know whether that's true for the concepts that finally made it into the standard (i.e. I don&#x27

It runs a local MySQL server, so I don't see why it would be incompatible with NFS home directories.

It would be a sort of bind operator, I think. It wouldn't work exactly because you can't distinguish between `>>=` and `>>`.

And the question mark. And see how for d, there's no symmetry between c and a. The do notation is definitely more readable.

They're not nearly as good as as an Either type, but if you don't have do notation, exceptions are much, much , easier to use than sum types for error handling.

Yes they do, with XAML and Qt Quick respectively. On the desktop, I'd rather have the normal menu + toolbars layout though.

If you're including third-party libraries, you have things like ArrayFire and Intel TBB.

If the Electron app exists, there's a lot less incentive to write the native one.

As far as I'm concerned, I'd rather have no app at all (and use an alternative) than have an Electron app suck users away from the potential native alternative.

Qt has very good documentation ( http://doc.qt.io/ ). Go through the getting started guides, and focus on Widgets if you're developing for desktop.

You're talking about the D1 module, which was considered the easiest maths module at my school, because it doesn't really require much understanding, you just have to learn the material.

Admittedly (as a Plasma user) I'm a little biased here, but the answer is to just use Qt (Widgets) and move on. QGnomePlatform and QGTKStyle means Qt works just fine in a GTK-based desktop, while the reverse just isn't true. Unles

Whataboutism isn't when someone complains that Y is bad too. It's when someone asks why you're complaining about X given Y is similar in some way.

C++ has parallel algorithms built in ( http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/algorithm ). Parallelism is complicated though, and easy parallelism pretty much requires a functional style. Things like Haskell's Accele

Your designer shouldn't be doing any development. If your front-end developer doesn't understand cross-compilation, they're a web designer, and you need to hire someone else to do the development.
