I'll be speaking at the Northwest C++ Users's Group on Oct 19.

https://nwcpp.org/

Work began on the D programming language 20 years ago. A huge part of language design is looking at the past for what worked and what didn’t, and divining future trajectories so the language can be where the ball lands. D has its share of strikes and home runs. I’ll be talking about a few of each, and lessons learned the hard way. I’ll pontificate a bit about where programming languages and D are headed.

Will this talk be posted somewhere like Youtube afterwards?  I'd love to hear it, but can't attend in-session for practical reasons.

Oops, you're right!

Yes, though sometimes it doesn't due to various failure modes of the camera and operator :-)

There should be redundant, decoupled camera/operator crew to solve this problem. ;-)

I know. The same thing happened at DConf 2018, where the first morning's sessions were all lost.

Going by the lessons of DConf 2015, I reckon we should always have at least one person using their laptop to stream to YouTube ;-)

Huh.  Walter says binary literal were removed from D, so how come the following still compiles on git master??
