 | You may have seen [the long discussion about the deprecation of binary literals(https://forum.dlang.org/thread/vphguaninxedxopjkzdk@forum.dlang.org). A few hours ago, Walter and I recorded a second conversation for our YouTube channel. Before we got started, I asked him about the binary literal situation. He confirmed that they will not be deprecated. If you're using them today, you can keep using them tomorrow. | |||

I first assumed that people made too much of the comment as sometimes you just say something like a speculative comment without too much meaning or afterthought. Then Walter got into the discussion at forum not really retracting what he said so that left many people wondering. | |||
