I had played around with D some time ago, and wrote some small programs in it for fun and learning. I both liked and disliked things about the language.

there was some Russian dev running a systems tech company, I forget his name, living in Thailand, like in koh samui or similar place. he used D for his work, which was software products. came across him on the net. I saw a couple of his posts about D.

one was titled, why D, and the other was, D as a scripting language.

I thought both were good.

It’s a little like go in that it compiles quickly enough to replace scripts while still yielding good enough performance for a lot of systems tasks. It predates go and I wish Google had just supported D, it’s a much nicer language IMO
