> Tangentially it’s not clear to me what relevance D should have for any greenfield projects where there is not already heavy investment in a code base to consider.
Another one of Cybershadow's articles on D that blew my mind is, IMO, one of the greatest arguments for why you should care about D. The beauty, conciseness and flexibility of the implementation here is extremely cool. And this is not a one-off case; there are many programmers in the D community that create awesome stuff like this all the time. Writing in D is like having superpowers, and going back to a less expressive language feels horribly constraining.
