| | In the previous post we saw how the memory management unit (MMU) uses page tables to translate virtual addresses into physical ones. We will now consider the various features that such a translation enables in an operating system. In the discussion below, it is important to remember that the granularity of translation is a single...

It has packed structs and variable-width integers to allow for easy parsing of bitpacked binary formats. Its comptime metaprogramming capabilities are spectacular. And it even interoperates seamlessly with C!
