I am not a D programmer (yet) only observing what is happening.
I compare the new "code generation at compile-time" stuff in D with
Forth. Forth also has a built-in interpreter & compiler which extends
the language and can also execute macros at compile-time through
EVALUATE. Of course Forth is much more low-level than D. But IMO the new
mixins are not a "radical programming paradigm change".
Perhaps I just did misunderstand something?
