Hi /prog/!

I'm a good C programmer, but I feel that learning C++ may be a worthy effort. Lurking around on the Network I've found http://www.boost.org/

How do you judge it?

Who let a Sepples programmer in here?

I recall hearing about some police officers who were required to pocket their spent casings on the firing range rather than dropping them, because someone didn't want to sweep up later. When in the field, they did this and died because of it.

tl;dr — garbage collection > ``smart'' pointers.
