Regarding Infinality: note that it's long deprecated and unmaintained, and it will break freetype2 stuff.

I cannot agree more. I'm trying to enforce the braces as much as possible because one always adds a statement here and there and obviously forgets to put them (for debugging purposes for example).
This is a very big drawback, as Linux is positioning itself as a programmer-friendly and "simplistic" C project.

The changelog is so small... Can someone explain why do we need this? Why would we want to use it?

Yes, but this is not the case here. In particular, the author tries to solve the lack of social skills between people sorted in categories (thus by IQ in this case). So it's not that important whether they are 'intelligent' or not (the definition of 'intelligence' is controversial) but their integration into society (very poor so far, as the author shows). That's the problem the article aims to share.

Please explain how can I make such a link? I wasn't able to find anything except a 'Share' button in the right corner. And I struggle on this only using amazon.

These days there's a great book "Competitive Programming" by Halim, 3rd edition (2013) [1]. Very well written. Amazon states there's only a paperback edition but you can visit the book's page and order its hardcover version. However, I'm linking to Amazon for reviews.

I want to add that not only the price is crucial but a bit of security. Using a closed OS with belief you're not being tracked? Well, they are not so stupid.
The best choice for such things is a chinese no-name-smartphone on Android or just an old Nokia on Symbian^3 or 9.4.
