Actually it got only 1 real contribution, something like 3 years ago. You will understand that I have laughed a bit when i have seen it...there was so many other possible choices...and the worst is: it's not written in D. ¯\_(👁_ʖ👁)_/¯

The spelling of words created more diverse answers than necessary. Everyone learned D in english but there are 7 different columns listed (English, ENGLISH, edglish, eglish etc.) yeah for countries I fixed that already, I thought adding a regex making people capitalize the words would unify it but instead they write all caps...

Took me a minute to figure this out :) I partway filled out this survey, but not sure if I should finish it. It seems geared towards people who just learned D recently. Much of this stuff isn't applicable to me. For instance you have "Quality of resources to learn D", almost all of that wasn't available when I learned it :) -Steve Well new technologies are always on the rise, for example before you probably wouldn't have written Android or Objective-C D applications, but then wanted to learn it and the survey there is just to give an overview over the quality & availability of D tutorials in these fields. Fixed spoken language

I think it's better to put e.g. "California, US" as country and e.g. "Mountain View" is city. - I have two primary languages: Fully Turkish at home and among Turkish people and English outside. :) - "know about" and "used it before" are distinct groups of people. Unless you are looking for two numbers, remove one of those phrases. - "In what language did you learn D?" Please make that "spoken language". Otherwise, "language" in a language survey can be confusing. :) - dconf.org is missing from the repos Ali

Re: fluent-asserts 0.8.0 released
I forgot to add a link to the library... so if you are intrested about this you can find it here: https://code.dlang.org/packages/fluent-asserts
fluent-asserts 0.8.0 released
Hi, I just made some updates to fluent-asserts library. Since the last release I did: * use lazy parameters to test exceptions ``` /// instead of: ({ foo() }).should.throwAnyException; /// you can now use rewrite it like this: foo().should.throwAnyException; ``` the known issue is that you can not use this syntax for functions that return arrays or ranges... I'll try to fix this issue in a future release * .beNull for delegates * spaces between words are not replaced with special chars (for those who use trial) * compare immutable and const values with mutable values * .equal for objects * improved code results The library is starting to be more complex that I was expecting when I started the project, so any feedbak is appreciated. Also I want to thank to linkrope, ohdatboi and DiddiZ for the submitted issues.
