to other frontends, LDC seems to follow upstream much more

Anyhow, kudos to David Nadlinger and whoever else was
Major changes:
- Added support for multiple packages per directory, which is needed
for certain project structures (e.g. Derelict) - See the subPackages
field [1]
- Dependencies can be specified per configuration now and optional
dependencies are supported
- The version number format is now

In practise, say we have iterative code like this:
int data[100];
for(int i = 0; i data.length; ++i) {
data[i] += 10; }
For code like that in D we have vector ops:

The D GC currently allocates them 16-bytes aligned (but if you
slice the array you can lose some alignment). On some new CPUs
the penalty for misalignment is small.
You often have n values, where n is variable. If n is large

Is it just me or has Rust completely displaced Go as the go-to
'why D when we have X' thing on the reddit?
It seems like not even a full year ago, Rust was rarely mentioned
and all the versus hype was about Go. Will Rust fade away from D
threads a year from now?

From version to another version a changes are very huge in Rust

This actually doesn't scare me because it is kinda useful for
certain situations. However, I don't think it needs to be built
into the language because library types can do the same kind of
thing.

The article is quite void of any real content. Still, it means
that D is gaining traction, which is always a good news !
