(trilema) ben_vulpes: <asciilifeform> srsly, whoever asked that, read the damn thing << for those blessedly uncontaminated with "c machine" constructs, it's hard to tell where the "c++" leaves off and the "boost" begins. it's clear that it's used in every for loop (c++ doesn't have iteration constructs?!), but the question if you didn't read closely enough was "why bother?" not "should one?"

(trilema) ben_vulpes: yeah explicit deps are nice
(trilema) ben_vulpes: forgive the naivte, but what does static compilation buy one?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: assuming, that is that all boost functions start with BOOST_
(trilema) ben_vulpes: doesn't look like there are that many different boost functions called.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: i am full of questions as to how that's implemented
(trilema) ben_vulpes: but as to danielpbarron's pointer...
(trilema) ben_vulpes: well okay i grok that it's related to thread safety
(trilema) ben_vulpes: i have no clue, man.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: a well-reasoned critique. thanks punkman.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: what's so bad about boost?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: okay hey so devil's advocate for a moment
(trilema) ben_vulpes: punkman: asciilifeform proposed snipping the crypto routines out of ssl and dropping them wholesale into the bitcoind

(trilema) ben_vulpes: maybe i should run an x server on the remote host as well!
(trilema) ben_vulpes: decimation: i don't know that this was a good decision.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: but then i got all grumpy about having to maintain multiple sets of finger macros for the emacs-in-terminal vs the emacs-in-xserver
(trilema) ben_vulpes: i was very happy when i was running an emacs irc client on a remote host over mosh.
