It's not a low-level systems language in traditional view of what "system" is. For Google, "system" is a cloud, not the hardware, so take it from this perspective.
By the way, here is a nice video of Q&A session with Alexandresku, Matsakis, Stroustrup and Pike (D, Rust, C++ and Go creators), where they also explain what does 'systems language' mean.

- divan 11y agoYep!
- jacques_chester 11y agoAlexandrescu has probably done more to popularise D than anyone else, but Walter Bright holds the "creator" bit.
- steveklabnik 11y agoIt's worth noting that in Rust terms, this video is a bit old. I haven't watched it in a while, but some stuff might be inaccurate now. For example, Rust still had a runtime and green threads then.
