I don't know how CPUs work so I simulated one in code

To understand basic computer operations, a developer simulated an 8-bit CPU in Go, inspired by J. Clark Scott's book. The project involved creating a simple computer that handles keyboard input and renders text using custom fonts. The developer wrote a crude assembler and implemented various hardware components via Go channels. The enriching experience emphasized core computing concepts like bit manipulation, ALUs, registers, and basic assembly language programming.
