If you didn't know, bitfields just landed in the latest beta!
https://dlang.org/changelog/2.101.0.html#dmd.bitfields
Definitely a huge improvement over the current way of doing
bitfields (import module + template) (in my opinion)
However, in his blog, adam has some interesting concerns about
it, and shared a proposal on how it could be made better
I personally like his proposal, i would love to hear what Walter
thinks about it!
It takes what C offers, and make it safer to use! it's exactly a
BetterC language!
(btw, we could do the same for tagged union and .enum ;) ;) ;) ;)
;) ;) ;), just dropping this idea here)
