Book announcements! Twp-d and Developing with compile time in mind updates!
Hey everyone! TWP-D: So back in February I started streaming on livecoding.tv. For 4-5 months I spent it writing The way to program - Let's think like a D(eveloper). I had great turn out (especially since I started when it was in closed beta). Also got lots of people interested in D. Anyway the book is focused upon teaching programming using the D programming language. It uses a teaching technique I refer to as reflective. Which is a much more effective at helping people understand a topic. It has completed it's first iteration. The next iteration will add design patterns and much more exercises! Oh and the book's content is free! http://github.com/rikkimax/twp-d http://leanpub.com/twp-d Currently I'm streaming making a new image library for the purpose of going in Phobos. It's also very helpful at testing the soon to be new color module. https://www.livecoding.tv/alphaglosined/ My usual stream times that I at least aim for is 12pm UTC+0 Monday and Tuesday each week. CTFE: Developing with compile time in mind has gone through its second iteration. It's a little light on content unfortunately. Mostly because DNetDev is a little bit behind schedule. I added a tutorial at request. But that is the biggest change. If you have already bought it, you should be able to download it + the code zip file. Also you should have received an email from me about it. http://leanpub.com/ctfe Please destroy!

I understand now. Please disregard my last statement.

There is quite a raging debate currently happening with naming of lazy ranges that replace allocating ranges. If we blindly just accept what's currently in master, the debate is all for naught. Should we wait until that is resolved, or should we simply end the debate and go with what happens to be in Master? Once those names are released, there's probably no chance to change them. -Steve
Re: D Conf 2015: Memory Models and D (deadalnix)
Fyi - Someone is posting similar stuff to the G+ D community under the name Mike Rotch. The posts are links to serious talks about D. But that account name lends a pretty unprofessional air to it. --bb On Jun 24, 2015 4:00 PM, Walter Bright via Digitalmars-d-announce digitalmars-d-announce@puremagic.com wrote: On 6/24/2015 3:19 PM, Laeeth Isharc wrote: But I posted just now a short summary/teaser based off Adam's notes and what I remember from his talk last year.

Only 2 month until 2.069.0 It's a pity, but we can't wait for everyone to finish their open ended discussions or to eventually respond to pull request comments. Ultimately someone has to take a keyboard and write that goddamn code for it to be released.

Errr... why so pessimistic? It's not pessimistic, it's the opposite. This explained by the software versioning system: the updates for the version 1 are on a dedicated branch; the changes made to the master branch are actually for the second version hence no more updates means that the software is stable. It's not like semver that continues after 1.0 to 1.1 then 1.2 and so on...

Martin, I saw your post about a potentially using Trello (http://forum.dlang.org/post/55586d5b.8020...@dawg.eu), and I added a link to it on the Wiki (http://wiki.dlang.org/The_D_Programming_Language) under Core Development. At the moment, I don't see anything there (https://trello.com/dlang). Are the board public? If you still plan on making use of it, then, in addition to getting the core team organized, I think it would be a nice place for people to self-serve themselves with information so they can see where things are, and make some reasonable predictions about what's coming and when.
