DConf Day 1 Talk 6: Case Studies in Simplifying Code with Compile-Time Reflection by Atila Neves

[Saurabh Das via Digitalmars-d-announce]

I find it impossible to even find the posts on HN. Within a few 
hours of them being posted by Andrei, they are buried 4-5 pages 
deep in the 'new' section with very few upvotes.

Last year I saw most of the talks (DConf13) on HN and 
r/programming. This year I find them only on this forum because 
the talks are not staying up on HN or r/p front pages for much 
time.
