rmathew: How to use "-fno-implicit-templates"? Build first without, run nm output through a filter to generate source for the explicit instantiations you need. That said, it would be awfully helpful for the compiler to omit defaulted template arguments in its error output. In this case, though, it's the linker, and it would have a harder time doing that than the compiler would. Too, it would be nice if the compiler had a mode to generate explicit-instantiations source by itself.
The whole family's now sleeping in the train car on a regular basis. I'm still trying to get caught up at work, since the move, and sleep time is the main casualty.
Bought a copy of "Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow" on DVD. I love that film (which is not to say that I get to see movies any more). The critics panned it. It's not really meant as a movie at all; it's an illustrated novel in the style of golden-age comic books, done in live-action animation. Every frame is a painting, and they're gorgeous. Of course the plot is throwaway and the dialog (gloriously) cheesy; without those it wouldn't be a comic book at all!
For any of you with kids, or nieces and nephews: while in Cambridge we checked out easily 1500 kids' books from the library. Of them all, while Jan Brett's and Rosemary Wells's oeuvres mustn't be missed, the best was one called "Zen Shorts" by Jon Muth, with Colin Thompson's "Atlantis" and "How to Live Forever" close behind. Tim Myers's "Basho and the River Stones" and "Basho and the Fox" were strong contenders, as was "Slow Loris" by Alexis Deacon.
That new Nano iPod is nice hardware. A pity the software stinks (no copying direct from one iPod to another; no Ogg). Here's hoping the Linux port is ready soon; wish I could afford to help. Actually it would be much better hardware with minimal on-board flash, and a CF slot. Wouldn't need USB, then.
The best planetary picture on TPOD, for sheer mystery, has to be the curly trenches on Mars.
