Now I got my Raspberry Pi. I am an experienced application software developer, but I've never done hardware stuff or low-level programming before. I want to build a minimal Linux, including drivers for all hardware on my Pi. For learning purpose, I don't want to install any pre-built Linux distribution on my Pi. Where should I start?

You can also check out Buildroot, http://buildroot.org. We have a default configuration for the Rasberry-Pi, and several contributors are working on the support for this platform.

Start with openembedded. There are several links already dedicated to raspberry pi, such as:

"Technically, however, they represent different philosophies: the ARM architecture is designed to be as simple as possible, to keep energy wastage to a minimum, whereas Intel's range uses a more complex design that benefits from compatibility with the company's (much more power-hungry) desktop and laptop CPUs." Well then why can't I run Windows on a raspberry Pi? Also, what is start4.elf?
Microsoft seems to know there are issues with Windows on ARM because it won't even sell you a copy of it. The company licenses the ARM version only to OEMs to pre-install on new systems. When asked if it would open up sales so people could run Windows on the new Macs, Microsoft said it had no plans at this time.
Start4.elf is a file that raspberry pi uses to boot.
Hope this helps!

I am trying to create apps, but obviously you can't on windows. I have searched on youtube so many times and I just need a solution. I tried Yosimite on VMware and it told me the virtual CPU would not work. (Also I have access to a mac if needed for install procedure). Thank you!
You can't without running into illegal content like Hackintosh
Please note that Apple allows the use of Mac OS X only on its own devices

I have recently bought a Raspberry Pi 2. I am using it to test some python socket server games that I made, but it takes me ages to put the client's .py file on my memory stick, then put it on my Pi every time I update the code. I would like an easy way to connect the two's files, preferably using LAN. Thanks :)
You can use your classic network cable to access Raspberry Pi (eg. SSH) without Internet Connection.

I recently need to run a program Metro:
http://vcg.isti.cnr.it/downloads/downloads.htm
It is used to measure the difference between two 3d models.
However, this program has to be run in irix 6.2/6.3. But I only have a win8.1 laptop. Is there any way to run it in a shell like cygwin? Or is there any available virtual machine resource of irix platform?
Thanks!
The software you're trying to run is old enough to drive in most countries (compiled in 1998), and was compiled for an operating system that doesn't exist anymore (Irix) that ran on a CPU architecture that's no longer even used for desktop computers (MIPS-II) and was released by a company that doesn't exist anymore either (SGI).
Your chances of getting it to run are practically nil without some major retrocomputing work. Sorry.

I have one question regarding running XCode in Windows OS
is it possible to install xcode in windows 7 machine?
It's not in Apple's interests to let you do that, so they don't make it easy...you could probably use a VM or Hackintosh (I've known devs who used a hackintosh for a while).
Use a Virtual Machine (VirtualBox for example) to run OSX in Windows.
