Gary Whatmore Wrote (fixed that for you): Let's try to act reasonable here. Walter fanboyism is already getting old and sadly favored by our famous NG trolls, that is pretty much everyone here. I wouldn't be shocked to hear this Gary Whatmore will be bashing D in about 2 years' time when he realizes how naive he has been.
The creators haven't even attempted eating their own dog food. On the other hand it's crystal clear that such a task as writing a language and its compiler without any support from anyone is the very definition of "Not Invented Here" that only a handful of developers are willing to pursue on this planet. As a result D is one of the most broken languages ever built. I honestly wish we would sometimes question Walter's competence. He only has so much time. All this love talk here blinds even more potential users. We would already have a working compiler if they didn't want to reinvent everything.
