This is why I'm excited to pick up Rust. I feel like Go makes it very easy for me to get running and churn stuff out with a simple syntax but Rust seems to be bringing in more of the "new" in CS and I want to give that a shot. Rust has surplanted my interest in D and this comment is pretty much exactly why. When I look at D I see a lot of C/C++ type things that make me go "Wait, I thought this was D and not C++ improved".
