Sounds like you didn't read the article. For example rather than using 'override' if you use the Q_DECL_OVERRIDE macro it will spit out 'override' when you want to compile with C++11 and when you don't it does nothing. Not a fan of modern

For the last half a decade I have been buying mac hardware. Even when I run linux on it I know that I can at any time get rid of it on the used market and get an insane price back. Compared to any PC, even when I would hand build them the

Personally I am waiting for them to put floppies back in laptops. Seriously, Air will never get a built in optical drive and you either accept that and use the USB drive once a year when you need it or you just go and buy a different lapto

Same here. If I find a project that upon inspection has some interesting source code I will often sit down and just read through it. I often end up learning a trick or two and by reading it I typically understand the system better and so
