Mojo seems to be another potential competitor to D that will get 
a head-start by (aiming at) being a superset of Python with 
systems programming features.

"Our overall mission is to unify AI software and we can’t do that 
without a unified language that can scale across the AI 
infrastructure stack. That said, we don’t plan to stop at AI—the 
north star is for Mojo to support the whole gamut of 
general-purpose programming over time."
