We have recently released a set of optimized assembly-language routines for basic floating-point arithmetic, in Arm Optimized Routines, under an open-source license. These functions perform the same operations as hardware floating point instructions, for example addition, multiplication, and division. However, they are implemented using only integer 32-bit Arm instructions, for Arm CPUs without hardware floating point. Existing open-source libraries such as libgcc and compiler-rt offer similar

Apple’s AirPods Pro 3 are here, and with their arrival comes a lot of questions. One of the big questions after Apple’s annual iPhone event is, “Should I buy new AirPods right now?” But before you can answer that, it’s important to know the competition, and the main one is Google’s Pixel Buds Pro 2.

And that was the worst-case scenario; in just three months, he predicted, we could hit a place where "essentially all" code is written by AI. As the CEO of one of the buzzi

Barrages of 700-plus drones now regularly attack Ukraine during overnight raids. Russia also appears to have upped the ante dramatically by sending at least 19 drones into Poland last night, some of which were shot down by NATO forces.
