Not equivalent, but arguably more useful for manual authoring: Emmet [0] was all the range a while back, and I still use it to write HTML. It comes naturally if you're used to writing CSS-like selectors, and mostly gets out of the way.
DSL-wise, I've rather enjoyed Clojure's Hiccup [1].

It might be worth pointing out that this presentation comes with speaker notes (keyboard shortcut: S, or click on the gear icon at the bottom and find the link). They contain much more content (and context) than the slides alone.

Thanks for sharing this!
Have you ever considered js_of_ocaml (https://github.com/ocsigen/js_of_ocaml)? What were your reasons for choosing ReasonML?

These all work fairly well in modern web browsers.

Yes, it will run on your system X11 obeying your .Xresources. I have never tried using update-alternatives to replace the system-wide GCC (or any piece of software for that matter).

You can always use something like the Nix package manager[1] to install Firefox, Git, and Emacs, and leave the rest to Ubuntu. Save for Firefox, which I install from a tarball and use auto-update, I have been doing that with Debian stable on my laptop, and it works well.

I'd recommend going with the language you're most likely to use extensively - since you're sitting next to a person speaking French, I'd say that might be a good option. It's too easy to underestimate the importance of conversational practice while learning a language.

It's pretty good.
There are several hackerspaces (https://wiki.hackerspaces.org/Zagreb - I'm partial to the one in Mama), and every now and then we'll gather around a "Nothing will happen" (http://www.nsnd.org/).
There's a vibrant meetup scene (well-covered by meetup.com), and WebCamp Zagreb (https://2016.webcampzg.org/) is the community conference that tries to gather different meetups & communities once a year.
Companies from abroad tend to open development offices here to exploit the cheaper workforce, especially since Croatia has joined the EU. There's also a number of local companies that are constantly hiring, resulting in a solid amount of hiring opportunities even for the part of the crowd that's a bit pickier.
People are leaving Croatia in general, though, and the tech community isn't immune to that. Lots of people moved to other EU countries, and although that's not unexpected at all, I believe it's left a dent within all of the above.
If you decide to visit, give me a shout. :)

The kind folks at bootstrapcdn.com host FontAwesome as well (seems like 4.1.0 is already up): http://www.bootstrapcdn.com/#fontawesome_tab

No - DDG simply redirects your query to Startpage. For me, it's just a convenient way to reach out to Google when DDG doesn't cut it.

You can always use "!s" to fetch the results through startpage.com, which anonymizes your Google query.
