I personally prefer the memory safety tools offered by D over Rust. D also doesn’t come with const by default, and you can even opt out of the RAII stuff a certain graphics driver developer boasted about in the Linux developer mailings (RAII can be a bad for optimization).
/// Throws: MoneyNotFoundExcetion if person does not have enough money
Give it another go, maybe join the community Discord server.
There’s some very well going hobby projects, and D3 seems to be inevitable (safe by default, PhobosV3, etc.).
Good thing I wrote my own game engine using D, and soon there will be 2 (known) games for it.
In a just world, you could just download ROMs for free.
From what I’ve heard, manufacturers are afraid getting sued for dumb users breaking HDMI plugs into DP sockets and vice versa.
Aaaaand… it’s DMCAd by Nintendo!
How do I run Paint Shop Pro 9 on Linux?
No, I’ll likely code it in D, with with blackjack and hookers!
No thanks, I’m rolling my own text editor with a GUI…
This is highly inaccurate:
D: Esperanto. Highly derivative of C (Latin), designed by people previously writing compilers. It’s not being taken seriously as such.
Russian is nowadays being speaken by right-wing authoritarians instead, and any programmer that is auth-right is either coding in C/C++, or a Javascript/Python dev pretending to be a C/C++ dev to “gatekeep” nulangs (sic).
Leaked Windows code made Wine and ReactOS devs anxious, since MS could sue over it. On the other hand, I’ve looked up the keycodes from the Linux kernel for X11 (it’s literally just PS/2 with the unused codes being used in place of the E0 keys), and they haven’t yet came after us.
D seems to getting traction yet again, and some stuff might get better (D3, new GC, new standard library, etc).
While the borrow checker has its downsides, so its legitimate uses. A few people in the D community were thinking about implementing it as a library.
Some of these people are Javascript web developers idealizing system development and the C language.
I called the SWAT on them.😈
Update: The SWAT came to my home!😅

Not if you opt in it. You can even put
@safe:in the beginning of your D source code, then you’ll have a memory safe D (you have to opt out by using@trustedthen@system).
