You know the name but you ignore the effects. Look at this guy (famous BTW):

He's not cool, he's ridiculous. No more filter.
What are those 'Ayahuasca' idea ? Do you want to look like Cassidy, in this particular setup ? The complete village idiot ?

No; that particular solution might never be implemented at all. Getting safe reference counting working well in D (*somehow*) is a high priority, though.

Andrei Alexandrescu is giving the opening keynote for DConf 2016 tomorrow:
    http://dconf.org/2016/schedule/
From the abstract, it sounds like he will be discussing the reference counting problem again.

Jeremy DeHaan just started a Google Summer of Code project to make D's GC precise - or at least much *more* precise than it is now:
    http://forum.dlang.org/post/dgvhslayxialmebvjuwr@forum.dlang.org
If he is able to meet his proposed schedule, I expect there will be a D release with a much less leaky GC in 6 months to a year.

You've never had a proper, balanced, well-meaning Ayahuasca ceremony, have you? Or if you had, you got the wrong message. That is clear from the way you present your arguments in a very non-emphatic way. And you talk about letting go of the ego, ha...

All right, that was constructive. Thanks.

Sorry Bill but reading a few wikipedia articles about the Beats and Carlos Castenada doesn't a spiritual guru make... even if you did get as far as a couple of youtube videos as well.

So many gods
So many creeds,
So many paths that wind and wind
While just the art of being kind
is all this sad world needs.

I am the voice of the voiceless
Through me the mute shall speak
'til the deaf world's ear
be made to hear
the cry of the wordless weak.
