Awesome!

And thanks for linking directly to the article on ycombinator. If they're still penalizing articles for direct links, they should realize already that links are a thing on the internet.

This is great!

I've been pushing D in my workplace, which is full of Python programmers and this is another good example I can use showing why D rocks. I'm going to introduce this and then push hard the line "Now you have D in the build mix why bother with C and Python at all?"


Thanks,
Stew

Looking forward to your success there!

A lot of the comments were about how stupid I was for not just using ctypes or cffi. I tried today and both of them are horrible. As I say in the blog post below, either they didn't read the article (people on the internet commenting on things they didn't even read? Shock! Horror!) or just aren't lazy enough.

My followup:

Very good read. I my opinion your work with integrating different languages with D is the most exciting stuff going on in the moment.

If you had an RSS feed, I would subscribe. Wasn't there a planet D in the past?

Thanks!

I guess you could either follow me on github, the blog itself, or Twitter.

There needs to be a variant of "mansplaining" modified for Python users.

Agreed, and there also needs to be a variant of prison, modified for people who post dumb comments on Hacker News.
