That sounded like "chia", I don't think that's right. There's another
website which states that "Ć" sounds like the beginning of "Church" (a
soft "ch"), while Č sounds like "Chalk" (a hard "ch").

Both are in the Croatian and Serbian alphabet, of course. :p

Here's another one

Don't be fooled by the Google search history, it records everything you do and attempts to give you what you already expect from previous searches, (it also attempts to do targeted advertising), so what works well for you may not work for others.

To find out what Google does to D novices, try browsing through the Tor network. Prob a good idea anyway if you prefer that the NSA should not have your entire Google history too.

I tried it on a machine I never use google on, and I got the same autocomplete results.

So anybody want to talk about the language?

The language seems cool. Anybody tried it? Unfortunatly, it seems it comes with *0* library, making its usage laborious at best. Am I wrong?

I didn't see how you could include/import either?

I'm curious about how they manage memory for class allocation in C / C++, since they seem to have chosen the reference model. Also, no structs?

Anybody know if you can actually write *programs* with this language, or is it really just meant for deploying libraries? Like.. "light" libraries?

Your complete historical profile is stored on Google's servers, not the individual machine. Did you log into Google, or use the same IP, or anything else that may allow Google's algos to figure out who you are?

Google Translate synthesizes it incorrectly. Ć is spoken as "Ci" when written alone. It's spoken differently (a little shorter) when used in a word, such as "Ćma" (it means moth).

At least It seems that they hit right on marketing, look how many posts about the language spelling. The name will get that way! :)

No, and I didn't log in, and there are no cookies on it.

Why not try it on your machine and report what the autocomplete says?
