Hi all,
I was quite impressed by Sean Parent's Friday talk in C++Now! 2012
I didn't see the talk but I did skim through the slide deck. One HUGE thing jumped out at me. I don't remember the exact quote - but I think it was something like: "C++ is now way too large for any single person to understand all of it" I believe: a) This is true, b) This is a problem. c) That as a problem it's under appreciated by us C++ fans d) That we have to explicitly address it in some way in order to keep C++ from being a victim of it's own success.
