In my experience (I've been to FOSDEM 3 times) the language rooms were the most difficult ones to get into as they were full 90% of the time. It also looks like Python has a main track on Saturday.

Is it possible to rebind the caps lock key? That's the only reason why I have Karabiner-Elements installed, using the caps lock key for delete_forward is the best thing ever.

Remapping the caps lock key to the delete key (delete the character in front of the cursor) has been a great productivity boost for me. Below is the karabiner.json file that I'm using for this: { "profiles": [ {

Aye, I did cherry pick a bit, sorry about that. But still, if you go to Brendan Eich's wiki page [0], it says that he wanted to put Scheme in the browser, but was commissioned to create a language that resembled Java instead. I guess h

To be fair, JavaScript started out as a language that looks like Java. "JavaScript was designed with Java's syntax and standard library in mind. In particular, all Java keywords were reserved in original JavaScript, JavaScript

It'd be interesting to see how H1B salaries compare to normal salaries, but that data probably isn't publicly available, right?

Another thing that I really enjoy about working remotely is not having to deal with people as much... Talking to computers is so much easier than talking to people :)

There is also a third option: freelancing. This way you can keep programming, with only a moderate amount of "management" (finding new projects to work on/dealing with clients).

Check out phk's fosdem talk[0]. I've linked to the the part where he talks about openSSL, but I'd suggest watching the whole thing. I'm now starting to believe the talk wasn't a joke at all... [0] https://

Might be because lots of us are not using a CMS. For a simple blog page you don't even need a backend - just generate static sites with jekyll. Having a 3rd party solution for comments is thus necessary (if you want to have comments).

G-Sync syncs the monitors refresh rate with the FPS your graphics card is feeding the monitor - thus removing screen tearing and other anomalies that happen when the refresh rates are out of sync. It doesn't make a difference if your c

I have an older 3xxx card as well and enabling DPM noticeably reduced work temperatures. I'd say the temperature levels with DPM enabled are similar to using fglrx propriety drivers.

Have you tried enabling DPM [1]? This feature was added in 3.11, but it's not enabled by default. You need to set a kernel parameter to make it work (radeon.dpm=1 in your grub config). [1] https://wiki.archlinux.org/ind

If $100 a year would allow me to develop iOS apps on my Linux laptop I'd be fine with that. But $100 a year + paying for overpriced apple hardware doesn't sound appealing.

Another thing that bothers me with development for iOS is that you need apple hardware and software. I can't develop an iOS on my Linux machine (I've tried running OSX in virtualbox, but it's slow and not to mention illegal
