The complaint I have for D is that too much memory is consumed

for me to build the vibe.d site on my Linode, which the site
above linked is running off of.
I just updated the site. Here are the main changes.
* The background is now dark. I tried a linear-gradient for a
little bit, but it made scrolling down the page much, much

I can't get enough of programming myself. I'm only 25 at the
moment, but programming has been endless fun for me. I've noticed
that there are a lot of cynical programmers in the UK who stay
far away from programming outside of their working day, but I
annoy all of those guys by talking about pr

the range and inserts whitespace where it believes to be
appropriate, so writeJSON functions would not need to know
anything about pretty printing.
