Are you against using Webkit ?
There many smaller and alternative multi platform browsers using it for rendering, such as Midori or QupZilla.

A simple cmake/sconcs build file will be as simple as the one shown (or even simpler !) and it will definitively will be easier to integrate external dependencies if you have to.
Being able to speak in public, express clearly your ideas (either orally or written), being able to consider the opposite point of view, take into account the past and history when making a decision or a judgment are (IMO) essential skills.
To be more at ease when speaking publicly, you could play in a play or do some impro. Joining a debating club will also help in that and will force you to consider an opposing point of view. Reading and writing, analyzing arguments will help to better structure your arguments. Reading about history and being curious about everything will help to open your views before making any decision.
Otherwise: category theory (abstract maths), the link between physics and computation (see Feynman's lectures on computation).
It is generous of you to help her with R (which is not used in all fields). Latex is mandatory for any scientist in STEM, she won't escape it. Moreover, Latex is not at all like programing, content and Latex instructions are mixed. It may help to think about it like an empowered HTML/CSS for scientific writing.
I think your idea is doomed for several reasons:
- Becoming an expert to the point you can sell your skills to scientists will take you a lot of time
- Money is going thin in labs, it is unlikely that anyone has a budget line for this kind of thing
- As a scientist, I would be very suspicious of someone contacting me for this kind of work. I would suspect an attempt to steal ideas and/or work.
- There are (were?) people in the labs to help scientists: research associate.
std::variant<std::string,bool> v {"abc"};
(Since I'm asking a question, you know there is a gotcha). Answer: "abc" is const char*, which can be converted to bool and is picked because the way variant is designed.
99% of the time, I work on the full container, why not providing an overload which let me write at least
bool batch_failed = std::any_of(jobs,
[](const auto & job) { return job.failed();}
);
job => return job.failed();
I've been using it for years without any major problem.
- Google has already its hands on so many things. If I can prevent it from controlling my browser, I'm good.
- I HATE chrome UI and look & feel
- With FF, I can syn my tabs between several devices while hosting my own sync service .
- Google is not beyond Firefox. I like more Mozilla than Google.
It took me some time as it was my first encounter with functional programming. The unusual syntax (coming from C++) didn't help at the beggining.
But it grew on me and today I think lisp is one the most beautiful thing ever invented.
I would save/invest a certain amount, give a fair amount to charities and go out more to restaurants...
