Very approachable introduction to this data structure.
The assembly implementation, though, reminded me of the stone soup story. Where a stranger is boiling a rock in a pot of water, and the townspeople intrigued by the idea of stone soup bring various ingredients to add to it and everyone is shocked that "stone soup" could taste so good.
The "Go" implementation ends up being pretty much all assembly by the end, in an article supposedly about a fast bitmap index implementation written in Go.
