Are you going to present us with more classics slides? :)
I haven't decided if I'd do a submission this year or not yet
(and even if I did, there's of course no guarantee it would be
accepted!). That's one of the reasons I was asking, last year the
deadline was in January so if I do decide to do it, I'll have to
start thinking about it soon!
I'm kinda tempted to talk about my jsvar.d and script.d this
time. I might also blab about web.d, but the var+script thing is
kinda interesting at a quick glimpse:
// this is valid D code!
var a = 10;
var b = "20";
var c = a + b;
var d = json!q{ "foo": { "bar": 10.2 } };
writeln(d.foo); // {"bar":10.2}
d.foo.bar = (var a) => a ~ b;
writeln(d.foo.bar()("hello! ")); // double parens cuz @property
isn't right
// hello! 20
You might remember a thread I made a year or two ago asking "is
this D or is it javascript?". That kind of thing I think lends
itself fairly well to slides.
I wrote this program yesterday:

And even I was amazed with how integrating my http2.d - a pretty
traditional D module with no special scriptable code - just
worked when I plugged it into a var and ran it from my little
script language.
The templates and operator overloads did all the work in showing
the web responses. That's kinda cool.
