One of my favorite musical memories from this year is the moment that almost the entire Stereogum staff, all slaphappy and exhausted, got together to dance like goofballs to an extremely late-night ...

It has taken nearly two decades and an immense amount of work by millions of people for high performance computing to go mainstream with GenAI. And now, we live in a world where AI servers crammed ...

Multiplication on a common microcontroller is easy. But division is much more difficult. Even with hardware assistance, a 32-bit division on a modern 64-bit x86 CPU can run between 9 and 15 cycles.

Abstract: This research study presents the design of a floating-point ALU which calculates shortest distance between two floating point numbers. Such a unit is used extensively in cluster algorithm.

Add a description, image, and links to the floating-point-numbers topic page so that developers can more easily learn about it.

AI is all about data, and the representation of the data matters strongly. But after focusing primarily on 8-bit integers and 32‑bit floating-point numbers, the industry is now looking at new formats.

If you are used to writing software for modern machines, you probably don’t think much about computing something like one divided by three. Modern computers handle floating point quite well. However, ...

In the last few years, libraries like fmt have mastered printing of floating-point numbers. They use shortest representation with round-trip guarantee. Meanwhile, yaml-cpp, after #649, started to ...

Floating Points has shared a new single titled "Birth4000." The track is out via Ninja Tune and has featured in DJ sets from Four Tet, Peggy Gou, and Ben UFO among others over the summer. Check it out ...
