I've been working on a paper submission, which turned out to be a major 
and extremely captivating effort. Can't share yet - double blind review 
system. That in addition to getting DConf on the runway etc.

I'll be traveling a bit next and meet with Walter. The DConf committee 
(Walter, Ali, Dicebot, and myself) will review all submissions and put 
together the conference program.

Next on my coding agenda is rcstring.

I thought you were working on the container, or has [1] 
established itself as pseudo standard.

About rcstring, I have [2] which works for what I need for. I 
plan to extend it some more to make it more mutable (CoW).

What ever happened to that Big O library you were writing?

It's done and with a nice accompanying article too, I just need to 
allocate the time to push it into Phobos. -- Andrei

You could just push it to dub in the meantime so people can play 
with it.

Does this mean the container-library? If so what does the "Big O" 
stand for?

Can't wait to see it!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_o_notation

It has to do with rating the worst case algorithmic complexity of 
a function. e.g. the current std.container lists the Big-O 
complexity of its various primitives.

The Big O stuff that he worked on was done as part of working on 
the new containers, but it's separate from them. It provides a 
way to mark functions with their complexity and do inference and 
the like with it.

That sounds like something really new and useful.

It did seem pretty cool, and it looked like the sort of thing 
that many languages would have a hard time emulating, so it 
should be another win for D in that respect on top of just being 
useful.
