Out of curiosity I searched for "reasons to use D" and I found
this:
http://blog.pluralsight.com/d-programming-language-explained
This paragraph called my attention:
"At the same time, D doesn’t get all New Age on you: It doesn’t
try to be multi-paradigm, it doesn’t claim “five percent better
than C” performance, nor does it provide any language features
that dramatically alter the existing object-oriented programming
status quo."
Sorry, but D _is_ multi-paradigm and it does challenge (not
actively though) the OOP "status quo". I haven't written a class
for a long time now, and I don't really miss it. D does not go
against OOP in an ideological kind of way, but it clearly shows
other ways of doing things.
I like this one:
"Users of D host an annual D language conference, but they mainly
communicate online."
If you are lucky, you can watch them in their natural habitat.
Their mating habits are still a mystery to scientists.
The article is not that old, you know (May 2014).
