I've never been able to learn "frameworks" from books. I've tried, not my thing. Documentation on the other hand is usually a good start, especially if it's written to be short and to the point. Most important, look at code. There's a ton of free/open source software which you can look at, learn from, contribute to. Find a small bug, learn how to fix it, make a patch, send it in.
That's the whole point. There is no "male culture." There's a number of "cultures" and men are not an homogeneous group that can be classified under just one of them. We're all mixed between different "cultures," spanning both genders.
I'm a guy and after reading her story I would feel the same if I were in her shoes. This is not a gender problem, this is a people problem. A lot of people simply don't know how to behave civilized with other people.
Maybe I'm missing the point, but I still can't see how Mr. Einstein was supposedly working for the nazis with their atomic bomb, copied all their documents and gave them to the U.S. Especially since this should have happened as early as in 1933, the year Einstein moved to there.
You are aware of that Ubuntu has the same thing, right? On 12.04 and older you can install it from the alternate CD installer, just select to do a minimal install at the boot screen. Later releases moved it to the server CD install but the result should be the same. It basically installs the ubuntu-minimal meta package and nothing else.
I wouldn't say native-looking, but rather native-inspired. I'm using OS X occationally and it's very clear when an application is built with Qt. Things usually look almost native, but there's always some things here and there that's not right.
If you want native, build a native UI per platform and share common code between them.
At some point you just have to pick what you want to use. RHEL and its clones are intended to be a stable environment. 99+ % of users should be ok with the version of Gimp bundled with the system. Should the Gimp developers bend over backwards to support old enterprise systems? Maybe, but there would be a cost.
Can you be more specific? GTK+ does not have a lot of dependencies to begin with, and most of them is not directly related to the Gnome project; GLib, GdkPixbuf, Pango, ATK and GObject according to the documentation [0]. The rest of them are external.
Every use of GTK outside of GIMP is a problem. Try running the latest CentOS with GNOME and see if you can run a newer GIMP. You can't. You will have to do all manner of things and you still will not get 100%.
I don't see how this is specific to GTK. If a program depends on newer versions of libraries, then you obviously need the newer libraries.
I have discussed this topic with GTK, GIMP and GNOME projects and at the end of the day it comes back to GIMP/GTK developers. They say GTK is for GIMP. So every developer out there would be well advised not to use GTK any longer.
But it's also for a lot of other projects. Gnome is largely based on GTK, and it's commonly used outside the Gnome project as well.
If I remember correct the Gimp guys had started with Motif. Early versions of Gtk+ was more or less a non-strict reimplementation of Motif, but that changed quite rapidly after a while.
No one has ported it as far as I know, but it is technically feasible and should mostly be a matter of redesigning the user interface to work with the Sailfish interface guidelines.
There's no problem in running old code as long as the environment you're running it in can be modernized. This is why you should preferably have access to the source code, that makes it much easier to adapt the software to a new environment.
Five years ago Vista had already been shipping for a handful of years, but everybody ignored Vista so it doesn't matter. Windows 7 was more or less out at that point; I forget exactly when it shipped but it was sometime during 2009. It's a very bad reason to stay on XP because you need old software, it implies a larger problem which you really should address as soon as possible rather than later.
Apple has a feature called activation lock. Basically the phone checks with Apple's servers to see which Apple ID the hardware was registered to, and will refuse to work unless the previous user first logs into the web interface and removes the lock.

Sounds like the better way to solve the "problem."

I don't see anything Gnome-related in that list that I didn't mention.

You need lots from GNOME project to get GTK3
Can you be more specific? GTK+ does not have a lot of dependencies to begin with, and most of them is not directly related to the Gnome project; GLib, GdkPixbuf, Pango, ATK and GObject according to the documentation [0]. The rest of them are external.

That is absolutely not the case. GTK+ started out as part of the Gimp project, but is now developed separately under the Gnome project.
Every use of GTK outside of GIMP is a problem. Try running the latest CentOS with GNOME and see if you can run a newer GIMP. You can't. You will have to do all manner of things and you still will not get 100%.

You don't need to run Gnome to run GTK 3. I'm using it right now on just fvwm.
Lots of adjectives. Explain what you yhink is wrong with it instead of just saying that you dont like it.

yayy flappy birds coming to linux
Technically it was, Android/Linux as opposed to GNU/Linux.
Shouldn't we concentrate on developing 4G first?
Why? It's been in deployment since 2009. 5G is the next natural step.

What happened a step 2?
As long as I can use it from VB6 I'm happy.

For a comparison, is a car manufacturer required to install new locks when a car changes ownership and the previous owner forgot to pass on the keys?
