It's not fluff. D jobs do exist. We have quarterly meetings with representatives from companies using D, and we still now and then learn of companies we didn't know of before.

Are there a lot of D jobs? No, but some of the companies using D are constantly in need of more programmers. So it is incorrect to say that there aren't any D jobs.

This is incorrect.

I work with D. I'm in the USA. So my job.

Yes, the job market isn't flooded with open D jobs. But saying there aren't jobs "Period" is not correct.

Well, let me correct myself, D is 'hardly' used in the job industry then.

The likelihood of finding a job in D is extremely slim, an exception does not equal the rule.

I've only been in D jobs for the last 9-10 years, so it isn't impossible.

Speaking from experience of one large D shop (~40 developers), in the early years, the company never advertised positions for D developers, it was always C++. It was only when interviewees were close to accepting the job that they were finally told they wouldn't be working in C++.

That's cruel! :)

Weka did (still does?) the same thing but I think they told the candidates earlier than last minute.
