The syntax was a big part of D that got me hooked. It just feels
right, as Python syntax often does, but with D there's raw power
behind it.
Coming from C++ I'd always end up prototyping in Python because
it's such a productive language. Unfortunately Python doesn't
have the grunt when I need it so it turns into a Python/C++ combo.
I tried Go and Rust but found both languages put up roadblocks
too often and got in my way.
