You mean how libraries are dynamically linked? That's also a strength. It means that you don't need to get a recompiled version of every program that contains a library when an update to the library is released. Most of the time, there is no problem, so it saves time, bandwidth, storage and RAM. This is part of why Linux distros tend to be much leaner than Windows.
> or download the dev packages for 20 things to manually compile a simple application
If you don't want to install dev packages, you can use Arch. Leaving out dev packages by default saves a lot of space though. An application that is actually simple typically doesn't need the dev packages for 20 things and there's usually an easy way to get all of those packages pulled in automatically.
> or try to do that but end in gcc/glib/autoconf version conflict
If the program you're compiling doesn't like your version of gcc/glib/autoconf, you'd run into the same problem on Windows and MacOS. You'd still have to get the older versions manually.

This happens on Windows and MacOS too. At least you can fix it yourself.

I'm not going to try to convince you to switch to Linux since you seem happy with MacOS.

http://blog.zorinaq.com/i-contribute-to-the-windows-kernel-we-are-slower-than-other-oper/
In this post, the author talks about how the work environment at Microsoft incentivizes creating new things and disincentivizes improving what exists. People still reinvent the wheel in FOSS, but there is also a lot of work to maintain and improve what exists. Lack of pay isn't necessarily a reason for lack of consistency.
> And I will say, it’s pretty impressive how Apple’s attitude trickles down to Mac third party software. The best compliment a developer can get is to have an app “look like it came with the OS”.
This is because Apple users expect consistency. Windows users don't, so despide all the paid apps, there isn't much consistency. Linux users at least expect theme compatibility and that's what they get most of the time.
> Now from my experience, the best of breed apps on Linux aren’t on consistent UI toolkits. They all have different ideas for UI organization, skinning/theming, language phrasing, icons, affirmative/negative button location, settings files.
This is the opposite of my experience, but maybe we just have different tastes in apps, so our definitions are different. Or maybe it's because my DE of choice has UIs that are more consistent with most apps.
> And by the time everything is pretty good on one platform (looking at you, Gnome 2), someone comes along and decides to change everything requiring buggy rewrites. Maybe this has gotten better but it’s a losing battle on an open platform with opinionated developers. To some people, and previously, to an extent, me, these are not problems but charming quirks. But they’re also distracting and unrelated to the task at hand, so the novelty wears off.
I know GNOME tends to go out of their way to make what they think is ideal (and sometimes reinvent that), but most developers go for a pretty traditional menu bar + toolbar design.

False | 0b_0101_001_1010 | t2_155rs2 | > Rust has region-based alias analysis
For references, and in theory, I am not sure whether in practice Rust communicates these regions to LLVM. Rust does use the `noalias`, `dereferenceable`, etc. attributes, but I don't think Rust uses `llvm.lifetime.{starts, ends}` and similar annotations, and even if it did, I am not sure what LLVM can actually do with them.
> I think the only “loophole” is the UnsafeCell type,
Rust also has C-like raw pointers, and most data-structures use them extensively, for example, most of the `std::collections` ones like `Vec`, `HashMap`, etc. do. The compiler does not really track the regions of memory that these raw pointers refer to (that's actually their point).
So I wonder whether without TBAA any of the optimizations shown here can apply to Rust's raw pointers as well, probably not. The interesting question is whether these are relevant for Rust. For example, references that track memory regions can be created from raw pointers, and most user-facing APIs use references, so even if data-structures use raw pointers internally, lack of TBAA for raw pointers might not matter. | null | 0 | 1544461987 | 1544462526 | 0 | ebi7obu | t3_a4ufwz | null | null | t1_ebi31gr | /r/programming/comments/a4ufwz/typebased_alias_analysis/ebi7obu/ | 1547435621 | 2 | t5_2fwo | r/programming | public | null |

False | benjaminhodgson | t2_dp6v0 | Thanks for your thoughtful comment. A few scattered thoughts:
1. From a personal perspective, it's worth learning how to program with immutable data so that you can make an informed choice. (I am the author of a few functional-style libraries, and my typical design strategy is to provide a functional, immutable API, but make it go fast by using whatever dangerous unsafe mutable low-level tricks necessary behind the curtain.) Functional is such a different way of thinking that having the rules forced on you by an unforgiving compiler is actually pretty helpful when you're trying to rewire your brain.
2. "Freedom is slavery". Much of your comment could be plucked out and dumped into a thread about, say, types. Typed languages are strictly less expressive than untyped ones, in the sense that the type checker is in the business of ruling out programs and occasionally rules out programs which would work in an untyped setting. But types are a thinking tool; having a means of expressing the high-level structure of a system in a machine-checked way makes a large system easier to work with, not harder. Most developers today work on large systems, which puts us in the business of writing maintainable (that is, _predictable_) code. Unchecked mutability is hugely unpredictable and has easily been the second-most common source of bugs (after `null`) in my career.
3. On the topic of lenses specifically: lenses actually work very well in Haskell, thanks to type inference, custom operators, and a state-of-the-art optimising compiler. `order&customer.address.postcode .~ newPostcode` is literally the same number of characters as `order.Customer.Address.Postcode = newPostcode;`. The lens model is expressible in modern C#, but the resulting code is bad; that's a shortcoming of C#, not of the model.
4. There really are very great benefits to programming declaratively. Composing programs from small pieces so that the artifact looks like a solution to the problem - the broken promise of object oriented programming - is something functional programming actually delivers on; mutability breaks composability. There's a reason LINQ is popular!

False | irrational_design | t2_lgs8e | Not exactly. It really depends on where you live and who you work for.
I pay about $100/month for amazing healthcare (medical, vision, dental) for my entire family (9 individuals).
I have 40+ days of holiday every year, plus a paid six month sabbatical every 5 years on top of that.
It is very very hard to get fired from my company. I had one coworker who was just the worst. It took nearly a year to fire that person since it has to be done very very carefully to avoid any legal repercussions.
My company has 2 months of paid maternity and paternity leave (that can be used at any time up till the child is 18 years old).
Where I live the public transportation is stellar. Though, I ride my bike to work.
As for working time directive, I come and go at my work whenever I want. As long as I get my work done, nobody cares how many hours I work. I rarely work 40+ hours a week (usually I roll in around 9-10am and leave sometime around 4 or 5pm, I've never worked weekends. My office also has three fitness facilities, so I usually take 1-1.5 hours every day to work out.).
Plus where I live the cost of living is quite low, taxes are fairly low (for example, we don't have any sales tax), and I get paid a hefty six figure salary.

I'm pretty sure languages with dependent types let you do this. In the general case, you still have to resort to runtime checks, imagine a program that says
1. enter a number at the command line
2. we put that in a variable

People who flooded the market last year didn’t know what they were doing nor how the the technology worked which led to unstable prices.

False | BerniesMyDog | t2_gxp1oyv | At a major tech company in Seattle last year I made just over $300k. Last year was an anomaly and I typically make between $200k - $300k per year. I typically have about $100k-$125k after all my expenses/mortgage/retirement investments/taxes are covered to do whatever I want with — most of the time I just invest this since my wife and I can’t spend it all.
In reality I pay $20/mo in healthcare costs. My plan is considered a high deductible plan and the max I would ever need to pay is $3000/yr. On top of that I can deduct from my income taxes up to $5500/yr into a savings plan that is invested on the stock market (I have 9k in a checking account and the rest is invested). So most years I pay nothing since I only need to pay the monthly premium ($240/yr in healthcare costs, with $5500 invested, I deduct about $1500 from my taxes). My wife gets even better insurance since she works for a hospital.
In terms of income I do pay about 25% in federal income tax. I pay into a higher tax bracket but since it’s progressively taxed it is about 25% net. My state has no income tax (Washington).
I live in Seattle and don’t own a car. My bus pass is free via work my wife pays like $100/yr for a subsidized bus pass from her employer. Our sales tax is 9% in Seattle (there is no VAT or anything like that).
I pay about $3k/mo on my mortgage+property taxes (single family home) within about a 30min commute time (to and from the bus stop plus time on bus).
In terms of working hours my job is salaried so I don’t have set breaks however assuming I’m not in meetings I can take breaks whenever. As long as work gets done nobody cares about breaks. In terms of hours I probably average about 8-9hrs per day. In terms of vacation I currently get 4 weeks + 1 week of personal days. Next year I’ll get an additional week of vacation. I have been at my current job for 5 years.
I have no student debt at present. When I graduated from college I had about $10k in student debt which I paid off with my first months paycheck (got my signing bonus with my first paycheck). My wife has no student loans either. Both of us had scholarships to attend college.
My point in covering all this is to hopefully clear up ideas about software development in the US. We should all strive to work/live where we are happy. For me, the US for software developers is a very competitive in demand field. This means that salaries are very high and there are good perks due to companies competing for engineers. | null | 0 | 1544462500 | False | 0 | ebi8chu | t3_a4n8jv | null | null | t1_ebh6gbx | /r/programming/comments/a4n8jv/why_software_developers_are_paid_5x_more_in_the/ebi8chu/ | 1547435920 | 10 | t5_2fwo | r/programming | public | null |

False | limitless__ | t2_d7g0w | I'm in Georgia. The quality of life comes down to options and opportunities. The financial aspect allows you a wide variety of options of how you can live your life. For example I took my family on four different holidays this year. I could barely afford one living in the UK as you have to fly anywhere decent. Your options for entertainment are better due to the weather. We regularly rent cabins in the mountains, houses on the beach, lakes. It's all within driving distance and reasonably cheap. Due to the weather most of the options are available year-round.
Our house is almost 5000sqft on 1 acre. My kids have bedrooms to themselves, a huge basement with a pool table, a movie theater, etc. Our neighborhood has an olympic sized pool, 4 tennis courts and a soccer field. I could not even fathom shit like this when I lived in the UK.
Bear in mind this is MIDDLE CLASS AMERICA. This is not out of the ordinary. My neighbor is a single-Mum nurse and enjoys the same amenities that I do.
Our city (short drive away) has an NFL, NBA, MLB and MLS team (go Atlanta United!) and tickets are like $20. Florida is in driving distance so we go to the beach at least twice a year, I took my oldest son to Universal Studios a few weeks ago just because I felt like he deserved a weekend away with Dad. No matter what you like to do, you can do it. I drive race cars. No way in holy hell could I afford that in the UK. I could barely afford to go karting.
Healthcare, you can get insurance yourself or your employer can offer it. My family of 5 pays $300 per month with a $2500 deductible. If you have to get personal it's a lot more.
I have 5 weeks holiday a year including your standard "bank holiday" type days. That's a bit unusual. For sure the culture here is used to less holidays than UK/Europe but it's getting better. It's more progressive with working from home. I haven't worked in an office in 10 years. I'm typing this at 11am in my robe and slippers.
The downsides? If you aren't employed (or employable) you are SCREWED. There is no safety net, it's fuck or walk. College costs are a major issue here. The healthcare situation is a disaster. Most of the states are right to work which means you can be fired at any time for no reason at all. You are responsible for your own retirement moreso than in the UK. Social security is paltry.
They say it's the land of opportunity and that is 100% true. I always say to folks back home that if they get the option, try it. If it's not for them you can just go back home and nothing will have changed other than you've gained life experience. | null | 0 | 1544462512 | False | 0 | ebi8d20 | t3_a4n8jv | null | null | t1_ebhz3wn | /r/programming/comments/a4n8jv/why_software_developers_are_paid_5x_more_in_the/ebi8d20/ | 1547435926 | 7 | t5_2fwo | r/programming | public | null |

False | Asyx | t2_5ua6h | I think it's more like 3+ good DEs. There's so much stuff you might enjoy out of a DE that I don't think that one single DE can be good enough to get Linux that far ahead.
Like, you need something that gets back the old way of doing things just more modern (cinnamon) so the people that miss windows XP are happy.
You need something that is 100% focused on productivity so people see a true revolution that helps them getting shit done (maybe i3 or something else tile based)
Then you need something that incorporates everything the modern desktop provides. Whatever that is. I don't have the time right now to list everything I consider "modern and good" on Windows 10 to give an example.
And then maybe something that is truly more like what a phone is supposed to be. Think that weird launcher in OSX Lion.
Otherwise, you just have people whine about the DE. Oh it's old. There's a reason why things aren't done like in XP days (cinnamon).
Or this is dumb I don't want to have a keyboard driven tile DE. I can arrange windows quickly in win10 as well so why would I need this cumbersome i3 thing.
Or this just looks like win10 why not just go back to the good old days.
Or this just looks like my phone but I don't want to work on a phone I want a more kbm focused UI.
There's a million reasons why you can criticise a DE and you won't find a single one that improves in every point. If you wanna sell Linux, you need easy to use as a DAU DEs that satisfy that one niche and showcase the benefit of the modularity of Linux.
At least this is what I'd need to get all my colleagues and friends on Linux if I was aiming for that. | null | 0 | 1545690466 | False | 0 | echghne | t3_a95jxj | null | null | t1_ecgp1vt | /r/programming/comments/a95jxj/the_420_kernel_has_been_released/echghne/ | 1548030540 | 3 | t5_2fwo | r/programming | public | null |

False | tycooperaow | t2_z5n36qa | That can be a factor for people preferring to not use it, but that’s not the ultimate reason.
My statement still remains strong that crypto and Blockchain education is still vastly low among the public. Undermining one reason to raise another doesn’t mean the original point. I was only using bitcoin and Ethereum as examples because most people are unaware of the others. Which is why it’s good to push Blockchain education.
As far as transaction times, There are crypto currencies pushed to solved the transaction problem like XRP and the ripple company for example.

False | Epaminondas | t2_5x8lw | Well of course in the US everything is negotiable, but in France there's a minimal annual leave of 25 days (and typically you can add 10 days for the average desk job with 40+ hours/week).
Correct me if I'm mistaken but most of the job offers I encountered from the US were including an average of 10 days of paid annual leave (although a lot of them had unlimited vacations).
That's a 25 days delta, so it would amount to around 15% of the total salary for a US job with 10 days annual leave.
In France health insurance is usually less than 100 euros a month for a large coverage and a whole family ; but most of all the public healthcare system covers for almost everything anyway (the largest use cases of our health insurances are glasses and dental works).
We also have a much more generous unemployment insurance system, and the education is mostly free.
It's hard to compare exactly how much all these public services impact your paycheck, that's why I usually consider I should be paid twice as much in the US to break even. But anyway the same job in the US is paying more than twice what it is paid here, so there's that.
I don't doubt you got a great deal at your current company ;) I was thinking about the average software engineering job offer I witnessed. There's much more leeway for negotiation in the US - in France a lot of things are settled at the state- or the industry-level, going through the unions. | null | 0 | 1544462835 | False | 0 | ebi8s04 | t3_a4n8jv | null | null | t1_ebi7ncf | /r/programming/comments/a4n8jv/why_software_developers_are_paid_5x_more_in_the/ebi8s04/ | 1547436140 | 2 | t5_2fwo | r/programming | public | null |
