The fundamental difference between D and Ruby is static typing. This
leads on to D being more suitable for compilation than Ruby, and thus
its speed, type-safety and meta-programming, and D not as concisely
handling some aspects of reflection. Other than that, they are the
leading languages in their fields (interpreted and compiled languages),
and can learn a lot from each other.
