Hey, that's over 6000 ;)
Also, yes more interviews please.
Also also,
An example of a simple but fundamental issue are the defaults
of the built-in attributes. I think some of them, for
historical or compatibility reasons, are currently simply the
wrong way around (pure, @safe, final and scope should really
all be enabled by default, with scope providing recursive
guarantees) and using them properly completely destroys the
initial idea of having a clean language syntax. It's sometimes
really sad to see modern idiomatic D code degrading into a mess
of attributes and contract syntax noise. After all, a clean
syntax used to be one of the key selling points.
+1 for this entire paragraph, sometimes D looks simple and
elegant, other times it looks like someone puked attributes.
