Stack overflow has nothing to do with memory management. I'm a little curious about the stack overflow. I thought Linux would automatically extend the stack if it overflowed? it will, but only up to the rlimit. then it will SIGSEGV. http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man2/getrlimit.2.html

Thanks. I must have missed this one. I'll watch it today.

Seen this, was berry berry interesting.
and one by one of his students:

Ahh.. the enthusiasm of youth...those were the days...
I think Eric's always going to look back on this video and ask
himself..why did I say that.("..grease that barrier of entry into
D.."). I'm stil trying to visualise that...but it's just not
working for me.

Good advice... Can't wait for your presentation... ;) Sadly, if I gave a talk, after the first 5 minutes, there'd be nobody left to listen ;-) I would like to see Chuck Allison talk about the experiences of students approaching D. I think that would be really worthwhile - or even yourself for that matter, given your strong interest in this area. Technical stuff is good and helpful, but I like to know about peoples experiences too...that's what really interests me the most, and should be at the core of any language design. So somebody examining D from this perspective could be really insightful to those contributing to the language. It's really critical that D remain accessible to newcomers, or its' replacement is just around the corner.

Would love to hear someone talk about o/s kernel development in D, and their experiences/thoughts about how D helps/hinders development of that kind. e.g: https://github.com/PowerNex/PowerNex

Presumably that's why whoever was compiling those FreeBSD builds stopped bothering. Fair enough. 4 is better than 0 though. And, you never know, that could have been 4 large enterprises ;-) (plenty of large enterprise use FreeBSD). Now it's getting no downloads at all.
