So idk, it feels silly and counterproductive to have D not
able to natively use C libraries. Are we just gonna have to
write D bindings to every notable library out there? Also I
don't see how it'd be problematic, if you don't want a C
preprocessor kicking in, then just don't import any C source,
and then the compiler will just skip that step. :P
That's how you end up with C++. The solution there is to use
only a subset of the language, but since everyone has her own
subset, you can either learn the whole language or not interact
with anyone else's code. A tool-based solution is much better.
It's a fair argument. Regardless though, I feel like D has lost
it practicality for me for the time being. I might come back to
it in half a year and see if anything changes, but unfortunately
I don't see myself using D for any of my projects I got lined up.
