I'm also using NixOS for my NAS, you should look into quadlets (docker containers managed by systemd) to manage containers with nix.

Android phones sold in China don't have access to the Google Play Store so every phone manufacturer has their own store. Some apps (like Feiliao, ByteDance alternative to wechat) are distributed as .apk directly from the app website.

The timelime doesn't match tho. The article is dated 19/03 and mentions a study released the previous week (so 12/03 or late). The italian lockdown started on the 22/02 [0] for a few towns, and a couple of weeks later was extended to the entire peninsula.

If you want to use F# to build GUIs, you should definitely check out Fabolous [1]. It uses Xamarin.Forms to render the widgets, and you get to write the application logic using the Elm architecture.

Yes, that's standard and it's called overrounding. If the odds were to sum to 100% then the bookmaker would make no profit. Betting exchanges such Betfair have books closer to 100%.

Re:GCC 4.8 Has Automatic Return Type Deduction
on Monday December 10, 2012 @08:09AM (#4898805)
As a beginner programmer (a.k.a. CS student) I was able to pickup the basic of the language in the last 2 months and work on a real world (not a school project, it's a library that other universities use) cuda c++ project. I read a book so I have an idea of what can and can't be done, but when I need to implement something unusual (ie function object) I need to lookup it in the book or ask for help to my mentor. I still need help to understand gcc errors, cuda uses an "old" version (3.4 I think) so we don't get the improvements of the new versions.

Re:A list of systems, applications, and libraries that are written in C++
on Monday November 19, 2012 @08:36AM (#4804264)
After researching a bit on the net I chose C++ Primer 5/e (not C++ Primer Plus). The author uses some of the new features of C++11 in the examples (like constexpr, auto, list initializer etc.) so you get used to a modern C++ style, but for every new feature it tell you what it replaces so you can still maintain "old" code. The book in subdivided in 4 parts, the first part is about the language, the secondo part about the STL, the third part about advanced OOP and the fourth part about advanced stuff.
Also the Kindle edition is really well done.
Re:21st Century C (new book)
on Friday November 16, 2012 @11:55AM (#4794608)
I'm reading C++ Primer 5/e at the moment and I'm enjoying it so far. I like how it starts using the hight level containers before introducing other more low-level structs. The second part is a nice overview of the C++ Library so you won't end reinventing the wheel when writing your first programs.
Also the Kindle edition is really well done. The biggest flaw of this book is that's huge.

I think DDG has some personalization based on your location, for example if I search "weather" it shows me the weather near me.

Changing layout on OS X and Gnome (I'm not sure about Win) is quite fast, usually if I need to type on someone else computer for more than 10 minutes I tell them and change it.
Also even if I've switched to Dvorak a year ago I can still type at a good speed on qwerty.

Wow, in Italy Wrangler costs around €70, some models are over €100. I don't buy them anymore because I noticed they deteriorate faster than other slightly more expensive trousers, but for $20 they are really good!

Some older computer, like my 2009 MBP for example, can't be upgraded to more than 8gb of memory.
edit: I imagine that people interested in hacking on Android have better machines, so it's not a problem. I was pointing out that you can't just buy 16gb to meet the requirements on all machines.
Re:Ask HN: Time to give up on Qt?

Provided enough resources I think the best approach is writing a library in C/C++ for the core and then using the native toolkit for the GUI.
Transmission does this and it's beautiful both on OS X and Gnome. Adium does something similar and it's a good mac app.

Re:Firefox 13 Released - Homepage + Speed Improvements
on Wednesday June 06, 2012 @04:42AM (#4072892)
I recently started using Firefox Aurora after years with Chrome, so I'm not a loyal FF user :)
What made me switch is vimperator, I really like being able to navigate with the keyboard when my MBP is docked and issuing commands by their name(e.g., I can add a page to pinboard with `:pin`), also it saves some screen space by removing the navigation toolbar.
Another nice feature is macro-recording, if you are doing a very repetitive task you can record a macro and run it when needed.
Obviously FF is far from the perfect browser, I hate that it doesn't use native ui elements on web pages(e.g., the `select` html element) and I think it's a bit more resource-hungry than Chrome.
