Do you have any specific examples?

Return the date from two days ago:

Ruby on Rails:
2.days.ago
Date.today
Time.now

Clock.currTime - 2.days
// Not sure how to do the other two in D

This is not that bad but it's a bit less intuitive. Here we also have
shortening of "current" which just saves three characters, for no reason.

I think it's mostly std.algorithm that is the problem.

And also having to import std.algorithm. In Ruby you can do map, sort and whatever without using an import. You use it so often that an import is annoying.
