At the end if the day, people are expecting too much from a slab of aluminum. If Apple also announced 64Gb RAM iMacs with all the bells and whistles, perhaps the MacBook Pro backlash would have been less.

I for one will be getting the new MBP. I love MacOS. I love the multi touch pad. I love the vibrant screen.

I have used Gtk+, wxWidgets, Qt, KDeveloper, once upon a time between 1995 and around 2004.

Still use GNU/Linux on my travel netbook and of course, some of our servers run it. Last time I used Qt in anger was 5.3, while trying to do a mobile project that I eventually ported to pure native APIs.

Do you know of any other frameworks, besides those that cover all of these ones?

It's well known in the information security community for years. But here's a recent article on grading software security like how we grade cars:

https://theintercept.com/2016/07/29/a-famed-hacker-is-gradin...

They give one example (with a graph) of the security mitigations that are in popular web browsers:

https://prod01-cdn07.cdn.firstlook.org/wp-uploads/sites/1/20...

Firefox scored below Chrome and Safari in several areas: address space layout randomization (ASLR), heap protection, stack guards, fortified source. And I've even seen infosec people saying that Firefox has some of these, but doesn't even enable them on builds for some platforms!
Yes, even for a developer looking to switch from OSX to Linux, it's much more relevant to discuss how he will be working with his usual tools (git, IDE/editor, installing with apt-get, docker, etc) than whether the dock or the notification bar will behave the same as on OSX.
I find Apricity OS (Arch Linux) much better suited for developers. In fact at work I switched from Ubuntu to Apricity. Through yaourt (paceman frontend) and AUR (Arch User Repository) it's a breeze to install the latest versions of literally everything you need be it Docker, Java or IntelliJ. I think it's comparable with brew.
Plus Apricity looks so much better than Elementary in my opinion and almost manages to give you that macOS feeling.
It was a fact that I guessed. On one part. Which I called out as a guess. And the rest was correct.
No, this isn't obviously true.

Criticizing and critical thinking isn't the same thing.
There are also pros who primarily do web development. They need a terminal window, a text editor, and a web browser -- making switching to a different platform not as painful.
The version of Epiphany which has to ship with Ubuntu (because Ubuntu is only shipping GTK 3.18) is pretty outdated [1]. I have been trying to move away from Chrome to Epiphany slowly but was encountering quite a few issues which I reported to GNOME and they were like "Oh yeah, we fixed this a long time ago, get the latest version".

I got the latest version via flatpak and I've completely replaced Chrome. There are still a few issues to be ironed out in flatpak (like notifications and downloads support), but it's getting there!

I don't know mac conventions as I generally don't use keys on my mac. But elementary certainly has a configurable keyboard shortcuts panel.
I'm a Python developer, and I've been worried about upgrading to MacOS Sierra, after hearing a few anecdotes about bugs, etc.

Are you a coder, and have you noticed any things that you wish they'd fix; things that hamper you as a coder?

I love El Capitan, esp how they've finally absolutely perfected full screen mode / swipe to switch, half-screen, etc. at this point. Is that all still great?
To a point, yes. I don't think they are allowed to know the income in the US - and I'm not sure they can ask your education either.

But they do use credit score, which negatively affects poor people. They say it is because people with poor credit are more likely to file a claim (note it isn't because of poor driving, just simply ability to cover a smaller incident).

They also use crime rates in an area, how far you drive to work, whether or not you have off street parking - and if that parking is by your house or not. All indicators of a person's finances.

Civil status affects insurance rates - after getting divorced, my rates increased. I've never had a ticket nor an accident. (I think they lower after marriage - somehow, you are assumed to be more responsible even though nothing else changed).

It is amazing how much doesn't depend on your actual driving habits. I understand some of it (ie, crime rate, how much you drive to work) because it does increase risk, but not things like whether or not I'm married.

I'm currently looking for compiler-related jobs in Paris and elsewhere and this seems kind of interesting. I see that you first advertised this position in July and then again last month, which may be because there are too few applicants or because they are not qualified.

Anyway, as feedback (don't know if you're interested...) here are some points that make me hesitate to apply for this job:

- You're a C# shop, which is great, but you don't say if you only consider C# experts or if you trust a senior compiler person to pick up the basics within the first weeks on the job. I couldn't C# my way out of a paper bag, but if you give me a book and a quiet office for a week, I'd be productive.

- This may seem silly, but: On your "about us" page (https://www.lokad.com/aboutus) everybody wears suits! This might be useful to impress potential customers, but it also projects a certain image to potential job applicants.

- Information about the hiring process is always interesting. Do you make applicants solve silly brain teasers etc. This applies to most of the posts in this thread, but I won't reply to each of them individually ;-)

- Not a particular concern for me, but I know that many people working in programming languages in the Paris area are expats. Would be interesting to note if you are open to somebody who doesn't speak French (well).

Kudos for putting the salary range on the announcement on your web site: https://www.lokad.com/jobs-senior-compilation-engineer

(Another reason I hesitate to apply is that I have several other currently running application processes.)

All the best with finding the right person!
The basic principle of self-determination by popular vote was supported by the UK Government and opposed by the paramilitaries and hardline politicians (both the IRA and hardline loyalists) throughout the 1980s.

They could have had something similar to the Good Friday Agreement much earlier had they been willing to pursue that type of settlement by political means earlier.

Here's a list to all the projects maintained by elementary [1]. Quite a few. What elementary gets from Ubuntu is the kernel, userland tools and package repositories but from the desktop environment up, it's different stuff (albeit based on the same toolkit, GTK, and many shared libraries with GNOME).

The government should be obliged to purchase the property for the assessed value then.
The goverment defines the "objective value" of the property, which usually is way higher than the market value. The taxation is based on this "objective value"
I would highly recommend Xubuntu instead. Aesthetically I don't think there's a better Linux distro, and it's almost to the point quality-wise where I'd recommend it to my parents.

It's kind of difficult to do that when you are talking about the OS, isn't it?

First of all, it's a rather large download, so you're probably going to close the website as soon as you click on the download button. Second of all, to consume the product in this case, you have to install it. And yet again, after you do so, if you get greeted with the "donate" window right away, you're going to dismiss it because you still haven't tested out the product.

So, what you need is a timer, something that says like "after 30 minutes (or an hour, or two hours) of usage, display the window", but that would require the OS to make calls to external servers without the user consent, and, because we are talking about a Linux-based operating system, people would be complaining that this is a a privacy violation.
Ah? Which of the claims is untrue then?

Moxie originally said federation and forked clients would be possible in the future.

Also, Signal does allow you the same rights for the client that WhatsApp does – you can take it apart, modify it for yourself, but you can’t distribute the modification while still having it connect to the same servers as the official one.

Please tell me which of my claims is wrong.

EDIT: Using a second account because otherwise I wouldn’t be able to answer within of a few hours, and by then this discussion would be over.
I'm glad someone is being a bit more positive about this. I was a little disappointed at first, but all of the compromises on this machine are fully explained by lead time, battery life and pushing industry standards forward. The first I can't control, the second I don't want to sacrifice, and the third I'm fully in support of.

The only real issue for me with this laptop is the price increases in the UK. We're paying about $500 more at current conversion rates than the US price.
Chinese developer working in a Berlin startup here. I agree the Berlin startups do hire a lot of foreingers (there is a report stating that 49% of employees are foreigners), and it drives the salary down, but I can say my salary is the same level as others developers, as developers has such a huge demand here that you can change jobs freely, unlike American H1B visa.

Also because the EU bluecard has a salary requirement, so they usually pays you the lower limit at least in order to get you here. That's the situation of my Mexican friend, he changed job as soon as he worked in the company for a year and get better paid.

I don't understand this comment. What about this article makes you think the Greeks can't make decisions for themselves? Is their land unsuitable for farming, and manufacture, and services? Did someone setup an embargo against them?

Furthermore, the idea of needing to overhaul things at a global level makes many assumptions. For example, that anyone has the authority and intelligence to tell the entire world how it should function.

Poor people might be less likely to pay for maintenance or preventative measures, so their claims are larger than average. They might also live in areas with more vandalism.

In that sense, it seems as okay as charging poor people a higher interest rate, which seems fine to me.

Not really. I developed on elementary quite a lot. I find its ease of getting around quite easy. Your text editor / IDE is at the front and everything else is completely tucked away + you can control basic things about your OS like music / notifications etc. without having to focus on some other app to make a change. And it's pretty lightweight.

Comparing that to GNOME, where everything is so damn big that it wastes half of my screen and KDE where the default apps are usually bloated and confusing and can do way too many things, I call Pantheon as a win for the developers.

EDIT: Also, one neat trick that I've never seen any other terminal emulator doing other than Pantheon Terminal, is that you get a desktop notification every time you're not focused on the terminal when it finishes its job. For example, let's say I do something like "sudo apt install netbeans". Since the download is large, I'm going to focus on something else in the meantime and I'll get a desktop notification when the installation is finished.
