I played with D quite a bit, and really liked its syntax, perhaps apart from the fact that you start with the type in declarations, which IMO is a bit detrimental to visual scannability. Anyways, the strong concurrency story in Go finally bought me over there though. I still miss the super readable (almost python-like) syntax from D though.

I quite prefer types on the left. The name of a variable expresses hope about its use and purpose, but the type is a definite statement about what the behaviour of the object is. I've used both and really prefer left types.

Lack of structured concurrency is the reason I stay away from Go

You can almost always use `auto`, which might help for a visually more pleasing experience...
