Apparently, spreading the word about D is on Charles Torre's secret agenda. ;)

In all seriousness, I just found it funny that he compares trying to establish a »more productive JavaScript« to trying to bring people from C++ to D at ~23:00 in the following conversation with Anders Hejlsberg and Lars Bak:

Maybe Walter's talk at GOTO was shortly before the interview took place?

I'm almost sure Charles interviewed Walter and Andrei once, it was on video somewhere.

It is mentioned that the D forums are written in D. I wasn't aware of that. May I ask how? Is vibe being used? Or from scratch, is there any source code available?

Thanks!

Best regards,

Robert

It's written by Vladimir Panteleev using his "ae" library: https://github.com/CyberShadow/DFeed

Similar to vibe.d it uses asynchronous I/O and a built-in HTTP server to get that high level of performance.

I have used it also in modified form for the vibe.d forums before building a web front end directly into vibenews (mainly to reduce the error potential by avoiding redundant storage): https://github.com/rejectedsoftware/vibenews
