That's a mistake a lot of tech talks make, ie not motivating _why_ anybody should care about their tech and simply diving into the tech itself. I hadn't heard some of that info either, great way to begin. I agree, a very nice talk, including the way the motivation part of was handled. I especially liked the example of the group who typically used Python for rapid prototyping, then re-wrote in C++ for production, who upon trying D for a prototype, were pleasantly surprised it was performant enough for production.

My only nitpick is that I wish he'd emphasized how much of a focus D puts on metaprogramming, as I've noticed a lot of comments on proggit/HN/etc. saying that the power and ease of use of D's metaprogramming really stood out for them when trying the language.

Aedi dependency injection framework 1.0.0
Hi Dlang community, I'm announcing version 1.0.0 of Aedi dependency injection framework. The implementation will be frozen, and only bug fixes, or improvements that don't break compatibility will be added to v1. Version 1.0.0 brings with itself two more improvements: - All interfaces, and implementations were upgraded to @safe level, with few parts being @trusted, allowing containers to be used in @safe code. - Autowiring mechanisms were improved to use method name or field name to search for right dependency to inject, and @qualifier annotation on method arguments or their names to inject, before falling back to inject based upon field, or method argument type. Improvements, bugfixes, are welcome, if you have questions on the library and how it can be used, just ask! Regards, Alexandru.
