Not to mention that there’s huge C++ codebases out there (gaming, financial industries etc.) Great C++ skills will still be in demand for quite a while. Trying to ramp up new developers on a new, “too-bleeding edge” language/framework is too expensive. D markets themselves too hard on the C++ crowd, whereas languages like Rust and Go market themselves well outside the C++ circle to bring those devs closer to something that they can use as part of a performant service imo. I like D, but I think the two other languages stole the spotlight here.
