Do one thing (Desktop) and do it well.
hitlin37··on Growing Ubuntu for Cloud and IoT, Rather Than Phone and Convergence
this was expected. Unity 8 has been getting pushed farther and farther and it seemed very unfinished in previews.

hitlin37··on Godbolt: Enter C, get Assembly
i have heard good things about clion. codelite works fine too for basic needs.
hitlin37··on Function multi-versioning in GCC 6
pretty nice. i like the code in the article, seems much cleaner to look at different functions for different arch. This will come handy during code maintenance.
hitlin37··on A fast multi-producer, multi-consumer lock-free concurrent queue for C++11
Thanks, i will give it a try.
hitlin37··on A fast multi-producer, multi-consumer lock-free concurrent queue for C++11
ok, i have been also looking into concurrent vectors lately to get something like this running between two threads.

Someone know or point here to a header only implementation of vector/queue with locks and really simple code with explanation ? Something written as beautifully as herb sutter's or scott meyers examples, They are easy code to play around and understand :)

*An implementation without vendor concurrent library. Looking for an implementation on Linux/ARM. Although i do have access to libpthread threads and locks.

hitlin37··on WebAssembly Browser Preview
so it compiles c++ to webassembly syntax using empscripten compiler. what js has to do with webassembly? Is the idea is same with js? i.e. compiler js code to webassembly.

noob here on web assembly.

hitlin37··on Elementary OS Loki 0.4 Stable Release
Lubuntu and xubuntu are also quite good if you have old laptop. They eat ram in mb not gb.
hitlin37··on React Native for Ubuntu
Interesting.

But what are the available ubuntu UI components devs have at their hand as of today? Is it based on unity 7 or ubuntu mobile components?

How different it is for a dev from developing an electron based app on ubuntu.

hitlin37··on ABI vs. API (2004)
how different is ABI from XPCOM? Wasn't xpcom had the same goals to provide binary compatibility?
hitlin37··on Servo Nightly Builds Available
ah....the description is ambiguous then. Embed a browser in another application isn't very clear either. Is Servo like framework where devs can build apps on top (something on electron line).

Or is it really about embedding browser inside your application. That one can do today with QT framework where you can embed a browser inside your application. But QT itself moved from Qt WebKit to Qt WebEngine. So, 'embed a browser' in your application sounds old to me.

hitlin37··on Servo Nightly Builds Available
"Servo is a modern, high-performance browser engine being developed for application and embedded use."

Is embedded devices one of the goals around Servo? Do Servo have any embedded specific design goals? I'm interested to know which parts in Servo targets to embedded use. I can see that page says Android builds are coming soon. i guess that explains it.

hitlin37··on Microsoft to acquire LinkedIn for $26B
so in the end, a recruiting problem is solved bya software company, now could be named as the big L. wondering what happened to all those people who studied Human Resource as a management branch and what are they doing now when whole recruiting thing is being run by bunch of sw engineers sitting in silicon valley and crunching big data.
hitlin37··on The Illegal Map of Swedish Art
The current headline is ambiguous. The blog is about copyright law around the map website.

hitlin37··on A Book about Qt5
This is really good resource. Congrats to authors for putting this!
hitlin37··on A statement from f.lux about Apple's recent announcement
F.lux has nothing to do with GPU or shader. Its an application which tweeks display temperature controls. All modern OS provides such interface, on Linux, its x server extension, on Windows its GDI interface. So, its an application that uses the OS interface, that doesn't mean that it has to be made part of OS. At OS level, you provide functionality of underlying hardware but don't decide policies or features. f.lux is a feature not a functionality to display.
