I think you guys are missing the joke.
Question: You know C++? (interpreted as a programming question, what's
the result of C++)
Answer: is it D?

No, I didn't miss the joke, but I was tyring to say that in 5-10 years
we'll still be asking "Do you know C++?" instead of "Do you know D?". At
the moment nobody is hiring D programmers. Besides, if D was as popular
as
Java or C++, then the joke wouldn't be as funny.
I think you missed the joke too, but my response wasn't to you, it was to
Jesse and Jacob.
I think it's even possible the comic's author never heard of D.
