The mingw cross toolchain works surprisingly well; pesign and msitools (living under the GNOME umbrella) can also be used to produce UI-less .msi installers through a (very) minimal Linux-native version of Wix called Wixl.

(I was one of the two original authors of msitools, taking care of porting Wine's msi DLLs to a POSIX environment. The other guy took care of making the API less Windows-like, ported .cab file support and wrote Wixl).

I grew up with DOS and Windows, I have no interest whatsoever in moving to Linux; in fact I have an active disinterest in doing so, if for no other reason than the fact that all my software is for Windows. ReactOS is my main upgrade option, because I don't want to be tied into all of the Win10 nonsense.

On top of that, I have several old (XP-era) laptops which still boot, still can play my older games and get on the Internet, etc. They're not really capable of running even Win7. ReactOS allows me to run a newer OS on those old IBM battleaxes.

I don't think it's fair to bring up the White Man's Burden in this case. It doesn't matter what background and ethnicity people come from, surely we should all be doing what we can to help those in need? Understandably it's an incredibly hard problem, especially for NGOs without government support, but if each of those NGOs can help just one local community doesn't that add up to a meaningful difference to those living in poverty in Uganda?
I agree those are issues, but I've not actually seen Jira solve them.

With or without Jira, cross-team coordination issues mainly get solved by teams talking.

I've definitely never seen Jira solve a management visibility problem. Even if a team uses Jira fully, and even if the work is properly represented in Jira, and even if it's represented in a way that's more about the business need than the technological process, Jira is still a system for reporting on output, not outcome.

Just last week I was talking with an executive whose teams use Jira, but he still has little idea how things are going. He really wants it, but Jira's not satisfying that need. I doubt it can.

Most books on child development has (a) chapter(s) on neuroplasticity and neural development, and how that relates to actual skills. I've only read one and skimmed a few, the one I read was a Dutch language one called 'Oei ik groei' so that's probably not much use to you. If you start reading any book on this I'm sure you'll find plenty on it, and they'll probably point you in the direction of dozens if not hundreds of others.

But if you're referring specifically to the 'evolutionary point of view' part in my sentence, I don't even remember what I meant by that - it doesn't make much sense, re-reading my sentence. I guess I just meant that brains develop in a way that makes them, early on, incapable of doing some things that adults can. Similar to how until the frontal lobe is fully grown (18/20 years old), children/youth can't control their impulses the same way someone with a grown, healthy frontal lobe can. So it's useless punishing children for some things because they literally can't change some behaviors; it's like beating a quadriplegic until he walks because 'he should just try harder'. (This is obviously a very simplistic and probably in many ways wrong description; I'm just using this as an analogy for what I was getting at).

I tried this approach. It never works in the long run. The Python developers wanted Make for the few commands they needed in their projects. The JVM folks had Gradle. The Python folks refused to learn Gradle (because of some argument like: rah rah rah JVM tools hard; Make easy! Make all you need. If Make isn't enough your language is garbage).

So the JVM folks created a crappy Makefile that accomplished some of the basic stuff to appease the Pythonistas. Meanwhile the JVM folks continued to use Gradle directly and the Python folks who had to work on the JVM projects got a shittier experience through the Makefile. As new tasks were added to build process the JVM folks would just write custom Gradle tasks to accomplish the job which would drive the Python folks nuts because they wanted shell scripts or make targets invoking shell scripts or whatever.

My only take away from this experience was developer tooling sucks and there is no one size fits all approach to build systems. Try to stick to a convention within an ecosystem (e.g. all JVM projects should use one of Gradle/Maven/Sbt), but don't try and get cute with making stuff more common than it has to be.

Well, as I understand it the issue with OpenGL was that it was very high-level without an option to drop to a lower level on demand since it was implemented in a complex GPU driver. This meant that drivers mostly had to guess what the intention was, and be optimized for e.g. specific games inside of the driver. With Vukan and a high-level library, you would have the option of dropping down to a lower level if you want and making those optimisations yourself. Keeping the complexity inside of the library, not the driver means you can modify it as you wish.
A siloed mindset doesn't come from that. But it is encouraged by it. Whereas tools that present a unified view of the work (e.g., [1]) encourage a unified view.

I agree a great team can use whatever and have things still work. But most of the people buying tools are hoping they will help solve organizational issues. So it's the non-great teams that concern me most when we're talking about tool selection.

>Yes, I remember the GamerGate idiots too.

I hardly followed the topic. Refresh my memory, it was about some developer who had slept with some journalist at some point and the journalist gave the game a good review and people thought the game was bad?

All I remember from it was that everyone who played video games was again labeled as misogynist and there were demands from SJW changes bunch of games to have female characters with less revealing clothing.
Docker might replace the need for the virtual environment, but doesn't manage the components of a Python project (building, testing, installing and updating dependencies, etc).

Plus, a virtualenv is a much simpler tool, it's essentially just a way to tell the Python interpreter from which directories to load modules, so it's less likely to give you problems.
My guess is in this case the original commenter means "get a life" if you feel pressured to only think about programming or work.

If you are happy and fulfilled programming all day, go for it, program all day. Personally I would also encourage you to at least try and pursue some other interests because experiencing new things is fun & exciting, but if you're happy that's what's most important.

But many of us, especially those of us in the United States, live in a culture where we can be expected to think of our work as our life. A culture where we are encouraged to memorize CPU cache fetch times rather than picking up a novel, going to a museum or spending time with family. When we say "get a life" most of us are arguing against that culture, not telling you how to enjoy your time.

It is generally much cleaner but there's a lot of friction in retail establishments as most patrons were all too used to having their shopping packed in a plastic bag.

True; but do you have anything in mind that is less abstract than a graph and still expresses the continuous (or not, depending on what you're looking at...) nature of a relationship between two variables?

BeOS was single user. I don't think it lacked memory protection any more than any other OS that was active at the time (i.e. Mac OS 9 and Windows 95/98.) Also, though it lacked file permissions and multi user security, the hooks were there to add in that type of security, they just never did.
There is a big difference between restricting to standard definition and high definition though. Many people now have devices that will show the difference between low and high definition, not as many have 4K capabilities.

In the future these values will go up of course, but the difference between restricting HD users to SD and 4K users to HD is quite different.
There's "when-changed" in pip.

pip install when-changed

Then you can make rule in your make file called "watch" or "build-server" which calls that command, so you just need to write "make watch".

"supposedly fully backed" isn't the same as "actually fully backed". If they are being created out of thin air, it would mean the claim about them being backed by dollars was a lie.

Edit: Although, whether or not they're backed by anything isn't really all that relevant, considering that their terms of service[1] say:
"There is no contractual right or other right or legal claim against us to redeem or exchange your Tethers for money. We do not guarantee any right of redemption or exchange of Tethers by us for money."

So backed or not, nobody has any obligation to give you dollars in exchange for your tethers.

I knew Project Treble was exciting, but this is really interesting:

>Treble promises to change everything. Malchev says that Treble standardizes Android hardware support to such a degree that generic Android builds compiled from AOSP can boot and run on every Treble device. In fact, these "raw AOSP" builds are what will be used for some of the CTS testing Google requires all Android OEMs to pass in order to license the Google apps—it's not just that they should work, they are required to work.

Ron paints a rosy future here:

>Custom ROMs shouldn't need to be painstakingly hand-crafted for individual devices anymore—a single build should be able to cover multiple Treble devices from multiple manufacturers. Imagine the next time a major new version of Android is released—on Day One of the AOSP code drop, a single build (or a small handful of builds) could cover every Treble device with an unlocked bootloader, with a "download Android 9.0 here" link on XDA or some other technical website.

If this comes to fruition, the ROM community is going to go nuts. This is enormously exciting and Oreo will turn out to be a real turning point for Android.

One thing that is interesting though is the implication that Android updates will get more iOS-y in the future. By that I mean certain features will be missing from updated phones because the HAL layer doesn't support it.
