It starts with:
    int[] original;
    original.reserve(5);
    writeln("orig cap: ", original.capacity); // 7
    writeln("orig len: ", original.length); // 0

Further down says: "But to discuss behavior we'll need some elements."

and immediately proceeds with code accessing original where no data has been added:

    auto slice = original[1..$];
    writeln("slice cap: ", slice.capacity); // 6
    writeln("slice len: ", slice.length); // 2
    original[0]++;
    slice[0]++;
    slice[1]++;
    writeln("orig: ", original); // [1, 2, 3]

I don't know where the [1,2,3] comes from.  The first original[1..$] will crash. Maybe you are forgetting the actual initialization of original with data?

Ahh ok. You may want to point to the fact that you are referring to a larger and complete code file linked at the bottom of the page.

No, you are completely correct. I'd copied in the wrong sections. It is supposed to be something you can build, so I'll mention that.

(Also fixed spelling)

Thanks, done.

And now it is all formatted.

I'd forgotten vim has TOhtml, though with LJ you'll first need
:let g:html_use_css = 0

Also, much easier to format LJ when auto format is off.

It's not a big deal, but your blog's fixed width makes it a little annoying to read off a smartphone -- it's necessary to keep scrolling back and forth horizontally in order to read the text.

Enjoyed reading the article, though :-)

Well that is annoying. I don't have a smart phone, so I can't really test, my tablet seems to remove all the styling which would suggest text would have more flow. And at least for the desktop version, the main site is slightly smaller (due to the panel) http://he-the-great.livejournal.com/ but that isn't a good link to a specific article.
