On My Job, and Some Big D News

Dolce is still very much alive, just getting little attention while I wrap up the second semester at the university. For anyone interested, I'm teaching in a special program where a local university here in Seoul is partnered with a university in America. The students do two semesters here in Korea before moving off to the States for three years. We started the second semester two months early this year in order to give the students more time between the end of the semester and their departure to America next January. Last year's students, the first to participate in the program, only had two weeks.

In addition to my Debate classes, I'm teaching a special English Fluency course this semester for the handful of students who have achieved their target TOEFL scores. Coupled with all of the private classes I teach six days a week, I don't have enough time to do everything I want to do. When my schedule gets full like this (which happens a couple of times a year), my D projects tend to suffer for it. I find it mentally tough to get any coding done if I can't work for long stretches at a time. I feel so unmotivated when it comes to short bursts at the keyboard.

Still, I've taken the time to do some nipping around the Dolce source here and there. Nothing major to report on that front yet. The semester ends for me in two more weeks, and I'm not giving my students a final exam this time around. So I'll find some nice gaps in my schedule soon that I'll use to give some attention to both Dolce and Derelict.

In the meantime, I'll leave you with this: a D compiler is now very close to being included in the GCC project. You might also be interested in checking out the related Reddit thread. That's great news all around. And I really need to get around to adding it to my D news blog.
