There are also some people that think that compile time
metaprogramming is the single best thing happened to programming
languages. And, hey, what language will I use if you tear it
apart from D? :P

The Rust website says this:
Generic types yes, only simple, non-turing-complete

After seeing that I just assumed the language was worthless

ignored it.. is there something more to this?
As far as I understand it, Rust supports generic types a la C#,
Modula-3, Eiffel, Ada, among others.
Meaning you cannot play meta-programming tricks with them.
For me that is ok, sometimes in D I think we suffer from
meta-programming overdose.
