The crowd-edited (?) blog post exploring some of D's
compile-time features is now live. Thanks again to everyone who
helped out with it.

Nice work, the reddit likes keep going up. Nothing new for D
users, but by encapsulating CTFE in a bite-sized blog post,
you've gotten some outsiders to pay attention. Just read perhaps
the most ringing endorsement I've ever seen for D in the comments:
"How do you explain that in D complex metaprogramming artifacts
such as bitfields, regex engines, compile-time parser generators,
checked integers, generic allocators, are readily available from
a smaller community, when in C++ you need an article explaining
what tricks to use to sort a list of integers at compile time?"
