If I had to use Go or Rust on a regular basis, I would stop 
programming entirely. If there's something written in Go or Rust, 
but it's got a C interface, that doesn't stop me from using it 
from D. It's surprising how often this gets thrown around when 
you consider that one of the main selling points from the 
beginning was C interoperability.
