About the adoption and success of DbI libraries:
- Buried inside your talks there are lots of hard-earned
principles:
"What's missing is as important as what's here"
"Big interfaces are good"
etc...
We have a lack of DbI designers such as yourself or Vladimir so
a short text that teach how to design with DbI could be in order.
I redirect people to "std::allocator is to allocation what
std::vector is to vexation" because it seems to be the only
tutorial on this.
Other people often lack interest because of real or perceived
template bloat, and it's critical.
- I think it's important to emphasize CTFE over template
instantiations because (per Stefan's measurements) template
instantiations are a lot slower and CTFE is already surprisingly
faster than template meta-programming, and on the road to become
even faster with the superbly needed newCTFE.
