Setting up the system once is only half the problem. Most power users have a whole host of links of tools that they will usually need and install on a new machine, but things get really ugly when your stuff gets out of date and the applicat

Sometimes a view can be so high-level that you don't see anything meaningful anymore. All three steps you mention are not nearly understood from either a philosophical or a biological view. We don't know how an infant recognizes sounds: Is

I think there is a different kind of modularity which you are talking about. That a solution that brings different components together requires to know about the other components is obvious. It is about how the components can be designed as

Language learning in children is one of the hardest to explain phenomena in psychology, linguistics and neuroscience. Trying to sum it up in three bullet points doesn't do it justice and is a gross oversimplification.

According to Herb Sutter only the parts that are a subset of the C++ standard: http://herbsutter.com/2012/05/03/reader-qa-what-about-vc-and... Nothing is more infuriating than half-baked support that makes you run around with feature tabl

Maybe I'm misinterpreting your language but I don't see how pitchforks will help. There are simply not enough Windows users among clang/llvm developers and none of the companies that are invested in clang/llvm use it for Windows technology.

I thought that the recent sales of the Nexus {4,7,10} showed exactly the opposite. There is still the possibility that the supply of those devices has been short on purpose, but I haven't seen anything reliable to back that claim up. Most p

If upgrading is not for you, ArchLinux is not for you. You should run a full pacman -Syyu at least once a week and clean up .pacsave files at least once a month. Probably even more often if you are on testing.

And now consider the confusion of your users when diff is picked up by ADL, but reverse_diff isn't. A lot of the code that tries to showcase new C++ features often falls short on some of the intricacies of the language or doesn't embed it i

The problem with implementation hiding is that it is impossible to do well with templates. You will always make all implementation details available to your a user of your header and sometimes the implementation details are a public API the

Your first stop should be the latest revision of the proposal by Vandevoorde [1]. He also presented the paper at C++Now! [2]. Do answer some of your questions: Instead of compiling directly to object files/libraries and distributing headers

I'm wondering: All modules proposals so far have come from Daveed Vandevoorde including the last one [1]. As far as I can see clang is just the first compiler implementing this proposal which is a very important step for standardization, be

With regards to backward compatibility with include: modules will still be preprocessed before they are assembled. This is necessary to drive much of the preprocessor meta-programming that is around in various libraries and which will not g

The alias syntax has the benefit of not requiring typename everywhere because the syntax requires the right parts to be types and doesn't allow for ambiguities as does typedef. This makes code in dependent contexts a lot easier to read and

The argument for full-automation is and cannot be that simple. By just pretending that we just need more of something else you are over-going a lot of real world problems. Most of the people that are being put out of jobs now are not being

The maturity of systemd is at the root of the problem here. I switched (even for ArchLinux standards) relatively early and since then I could see how things changed continuously. There are two factors here: I appreciate active development o

Yes, it apparently has. The largest problem I see in this new trend is portability. Certainly, if you have full control over the environment and require everything to be bleeding-edge you are fine. If not... Well, just have a look at boost

There is something I don't understand: The US (or at least certain agencies) have been involved in creating or supporting insurgencies in different scenarios (even Afghanistan itself) for most of the post-WWII era. There has to be an enormo

The comparison would be fair if the rest of the competition would implement features in the same haphazard manner, but all other available solutions offer really solid support. I usually can code away in C++11 without thinking about the dif

I'm not sure why you mix Android, iOS, Facebook and G+. Sure, Android systems tap into existing Google products for some features, but this is not exclusive. The Facebook app, as far as I can tell, works nearly the same on Android and iOS a

elisp isn't really good at text munging (that sounds counterintuitive at first, given it is the extension language of an editor) and works much better if your data is structured as s-expressions. AFAIK there used to be project to build a mo

I have written my Bachelor thesis in org-mode and was incredibly happy with it. There is certainly a difference in requirements for a PhD Thesis, but I cannot think of any missing feature or hard to overcome problem right away.
