> I stupidly put C++ on my CV the last time I was looking for a job and someone started asking me about Boost. I used C++ as my main language for a few years and have used C++ more recently (although the last time I used it professionally was about 5 years ago now) and last year did a personal project to catch up on all the latest features (basically a project to upgrade my knowledge from C++11 to C++14 and C++17), although I've since given up on C++ since the latest additions are far too complex for me and I'm no longer confident that my code actually works how I want (I'm slowly trying to pick up Rust as a replacement). My point, though, is that I consider my C++ skills to be above average, or at least, above passable, and yet I have never used Boost, have no intentions of ever using boost if I do use C++ (between C++17's standard library features and plenty of easy to use header only libraries, I just don't see the need for Boost for any projects I've ever used C++ on), so I wouldn't be able to answer any questions on Boost either.
